Case 1: Missing Pratap

It was early in the morning, I woke up with a morning yawn.

             The cases these days are all simple and good for nothing  cases.

             One comes with there bag lost and others come with omlet missing.

           The days are passing by very slow and there is no fun at all.

           Two months ago I started this detective service and there were no intresting cases.

          I dont even have the money to pay the rent for this room.

          I still remember the day when I got this room. It was a hot afternoon and I was searching  for a room to keep my detective service.

           No one was ready to rent me the room, I asked,asked and asked and came to Mr. Wilton's house. He was like a stepping stone for my detective service but now that I think about it, he is my falling stone because he always asks for money every time he sees me and take extra money for delay. He really is a greedy man. His watch is also a very old titan watch which he always cleans and takes care of.

                Oow, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is ADHITYA ANAND and I am the infamous detective.

                From when I was a kid I always liked to become a great  detective. And here I am the great infamous detective.

              I slowly went to the washbasin and took my brush. I took the paste and saw that the paste is going to be perished in a few days. So, I kept a small amount of paste on the brush and brushed my teeth sorrowfully.

               Then I slowly went to the kitchen and took the egg and pour on the pan to make an omelet.

   Tintin,tintin

   The door bell rang.

              Who might it be to come early in the morning.

             I slowly went to the door and opened it and there was a man in black like a bodyguard.

"Are you the detective"

         Is he here for a case.

"Yes ,I am" I said proudly.

  "I have a case for you"

          Yaahuuuuu

"Please come in and take a seat"

         Hohohoho, Got a case

       Both of us went inside and sat on the chair.

"What is your case"

"There is a missing person"

         Ohh, I have got a good case in front of me.

  "You know pratap industries right"

  "Ya, he got a lot of loss recently and closed the industry"

         Poor guy he kept 10 crores(100 million rupees) and got a loss of 6 crores( 60 million) and closed his industry.

  "The industry CEO Mr.Pratap is missing"

  "What???"

    Yes, yes thank you Mr. Pratap thank you.

  "How and what happened" I asked in a shocked tone.

I am going to become popular if I do solve this case, hehehehehe.

"He went to Mr. John's industry and did not come back"

"ohhh"

"Did you ask Mr.John"I asked

"Ya, he said he Mr.Pratap went very fastly and did not talk much"

"Ok, I will come to Mr.Pratap's house at 6:00pm and see there"

Good case, Mr.Pratap is missing and I should find him to solve the case.

ohh no, I forgot to ask the man in black's name. He also did not say his name.

nununu

I can smell something bad.

shhhhhhh

Oh my god, I forgot about my dearest omelet.

I ran into the kitchen and saw the burned into crips omelet.

Ohhh noooo, I don't even have another egg to make an omelet.

I took the Omelet with a frightening face, put it in the middle of the bread and ate it as fast as I can and drank water. But still I get the taste of the hell made omelet.

It is still hot, I looked at the my wrist watch, It was 5:57pm. In front of me was a big house, two cars one blue and one white, and back of me was a Ola cab.

"Give me the money" Cab driver asked.

"How much is it"

"300 rupees"

What?? I only have 350 rupees, if I gave him 300 I would only have 50.

          God give me heavenly luck so that I could solve this case in a snap and become popular.

      I gave him my precious 300 and went inside the big house and saw the man in black who came today  morning, he was drinking coffee.

"Hi" I said

        He saw me and put the coffee aside.

"Hello Detective" he said

"What is your name, you did not say it to me" I asked

"Ohh,sorry I forgot to say my name, my name is Hari and I am assistant of Mr. Pratap" he answered.

"Good house and I would like to investigate it".

"Definitely".

          I first went inside Mr.Pratap's room. His room was neat and clean unlike mine.

         There was a drawer on the right. I went and opened it, there was a pistol.

          What is a pistol doing here at a place like this. Mostly police have it but now a days they are using revolver.

          On the left there was a book self, I went there and took a look.

            Oh my god, there are more than 50 books of RL.Stine's goosebumps, there was also 'Night of the living dummy' book.

            I went to Hari and asked if I could take this books.

"No, it is Mr.Pratap's book collection"

           What? Why do you need this book, You are this rich and still see for a book.

          It is my bad for being poooor.

"Ok"

"...But if you want to read it that much.....you can read it here and go to your house after reading"

        Really, you are very good Hari.

"Ya, sure"

          Yahuuuuu.

          I went and selected a good, bright room. There was a bed infront of the door and to the right there was a table, to the left there was another door to the bathroom.

          Reading the story book, time passed by very fast.

Step,step,step

        There was someone coming.

"Hi, Detective its time for dinner"

            It was Hari.

"Dinner!".

           I saw my wrist watch, It was 8:45.

"Ok, I am coming"

           What a luck I can eat free food today, it would have been very nice if I would have been in Hari's place.

           What??, What am I even thinking, My goal it to become a good and great detective not an assistant. No,no

              I slowly went to the dinning hall. It was big, it was as big as my whole house.

            The Dinning table was capable of 20 member to sit and eat.

          I went and sat on the chair.

          There was only me and Hari who were eating. I felt lonely but after seeing the food items water came out of my mouth.

* * * * *

            My stomach is full of delicious food, I wanted to eat more but my mouth was tired.

          I went to the room in a hurry to read the book.

          I took the book and started reading.

* * *

          It is the last second page.

      'The steamroller appeared to the rock back and font and Mr.Wood the dummy or the villain is broken.'

Dark, dark

          The lights went off. The room was dark.

        I took my phone saw the time it was 10:06pm.

        I turned on the torch and started reading the last page.

Step, step,step

         I could hear someone coming. I thought it is Hari. So, I did not see him and started reading again.

          'Kris came into her house and relaxed, she saw the window was open so the went near the window, suddenly someone caught her hand, she slowly turned her head and saw the hand was Slappy the dummy.'

Sizzzzzzz

          I could hear some different sound so I turned the torch near the door.

            It was a, It was a, It was a ....

"GHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOST!!!!!!!!!!!".
