CH-13 Diving Into The World Of Technology

Shani drove away from the tunnel and Roy.

"I have to leave the bike in a place away from the cameras. The pursuers might go through the CCTV footage to track me down. I would be a sitting duck if I continued riding it. "

Shani saw the flyover ends, joining to the next road. Just like any other highway, there should be a large area below the flyover, it was a good place to make his bike disappear from the police. Just as he suspected, there was some free area. Even better, there was a heap of junk concentrated here. Shani dialled someone and instructed, "I am at … coordinate. Collect my bike that fell in the scrap and take it to the car shop."

There was pin-drop silence on the other side till it made a simple reply, " OK" cutting the line.

"Brother Vignesh's bank must be reactivated but that wouldn't be the case for long. Once they realize my purpose of going to the bank, the account would return to its previous state and all the risk would be for naught. I have to get home quickly. The fastest way to reach is by using that. I guess I don't have a choice, desperate time call for desperate action. "

Within seconds a hovercar arrived for Shani to take him home. It was a luxury hovercar model with TEJI written on it. It was the premium service for transportation. They were famous for their fast service as they drove the car at breakneck speed to reach the client's destination as fast as possible. This saved a lot of clients' time This was possible because of the Autonomous Driving Programmed in the hovercar. The hovercar didn't need a driver.

The distance of 15km was travelled within 20 minutes getting him home safely. The only grievance for the riders was its exorbitant price that made their blood boil in anger, the charges were just that high.

Shani pressed the home bell wanting to get to his room as fast as possible. The door opened to reveal someone he didn't expect. It was his brother Vignesh's girlfriend Juhi.

"Ju … Juhi??!"

"Hey, little bro."

"Call me by my name next time. The only person who can call me like that was my elder brother."

Juhi ruffled Shani's head. "But it feels cute to call you like that."

' I can't waste my time discussing all this. I must extract important information from Brother Vignesh's reactivated account as soon as possible. Without any information, there is no way to proceed forward in the investigation. I would reach a dead end I can't come out of.'

"Move." Shani pushed Juhi aside heading for his room.

Mr and Mrs Reddy responded, " That's not how we treat our guest, son."

"Sorry, Juhi, Mom and Dad but I am in a hurry. Let me complete my work, then we can enjoy our time."

Shani locks his door starting his hologram. He logged into the bank's server entering the details.

"The Bank Account processed the information loading again and again. Previously, this page gave him trouble as he couldn't move forward from it, but with the account reactivated, the problem should be solved. Let's hope that is not the case this time. The loading ended as I successfully entered the page. A list of all the transactions taken place on this bank account appeared before him. The file was immediately printed getting a softcopy on his laptop. He could now refer to it at any time of convenience."

Shani was about to scroll through the document when the door of his room was forced open, with Juhi entering his room. He acted quickly shutting down the hologram. The last thing he wanted was for anyone to catch wind of what he was up to. It would be too dangerous for the others to know.

Juhi looked at the surprised Shani who seemed to be asking for an explanation for her action. " That, I was worried about you becoming a shut-in. Mr and Mrs Reddy said after Vignesh's death, you started spending most of your time in the room. It made me worried about your current state."

"Didn't I tell you, lets chat later? I am busy with some work at the moment."

"But this can't wait. Yesterday was his first death anniversary was yesterday, that must have been rough."

A forlorn look appeared on Shani, "Yes, it was sad and depressing. Luckily, I was surrounded by kind people who value me."

"I couldn't come here due to a lot of workload in the hospital. Sorry for my absence."

"It's alright, I have moved on from his death. My brother aspired to become a great person. As his brother, it's my responsibility to make his wish come true. It would be better to spend time with Mom and Dad. They don't say it but they are always happy in your presence."

"I will visit them whenever I have free time."

Shani observed Juhi closely, remembering the times he had seen her with Brother Vignesh. They were deeply in love with each other. It took a lot of courage to get back from what she went through.

"I wanted to make the night special called special guest to the house?"

Shani's curiosity was piqued, "Who?"

"It wouldn't be a surprise if you knew beforehand, would it?"

"Surprise can be good sometimes, I guess. If it makes Mom and Dad, then sure."

"I will get the party started. The environment should be nice and wark by the time you join us."

Juhi left the room closing the door on her way out. Shani went back to searching for the bank transaction on the hologram.

From the transactions, Shani realized the main usage of it. Brother Vignesh did all his business transactions whether receiving or sending using this account. The money came from companies with strange names that required the services of his skills. It was the way brother earned his livelihood. The most recent transaction was done by the Pandora Holdings. Throughout the list of bank transactions, the name popped up once in a while. This suggests the brothers' continuous partnership with them.

He had to obtain information about Pandora Holding to plan his next plan of action. At the moment, he had no information about his brother's killer. He had to get information quickly to meet the killer.
