The Viper's Successor by Somsiddha Saha (ebook reader play store .txt) 📗

“Okay, okay, you are the man, now find some relevant info for Christ’s sake! Anyone in this room is overconfident about their duties in spite of floundering in utter failure of Viper Protocol! And find some investigative details damn it!”

“I don’t know for what reason you’ve recruited me in COD in spite of being an amputee, but I assure you, we wont let you down!” Navan strutted. “Reports from the blast in the office speculates that the carrier didn’t blasted, instead the driver inside it is presumed to be a suicide bomber reminiscent to Italy’s incident. Sam, play the footage.”

“One thing is bugging in my mind that, none of the Viper’s men known to us, those who are we hounding was not present or arrived at Auburn in this week. And the Samurai we confronted at bridge was busy taking off those choppers so who was that inside the carrier, sacrificed life to destroy Adage?” Armun was ruminating.

“ Execution should be done much before, before sitting and chalking out their lurking. Red Alert has been commenced and shoot at sight order has been conferred to our soldiers. Vipers men are like gravels, shattered and fragmented into numerous grains, still retain their dexterity.” Hudson sighed. “EN TRASTEand Cleocorp are under constant surveillance by our officiels…and…”

“Sent a security group and warn Tokyo police about OKAMI too.” Navan interrupted Hudson. “OKAMI, from next month will expound the trade supplies and marketing of AD5 in Asia Pacific regions, as Fulkan affirmed that day. As Adage has been incapacitated, OKAMI might take off its position. Trailers containing AD5 also were destroyed that day by plastic explosives before destructing the office. OKAMI might retained some AD5 for marketing purpose and I believe that’s in the list of Samurai too.”

“Do you have an unswerved approach that the Samurai , that’s what you guys named him actually, is the mastermind behind all these? Can’t it be some other threat, can’t it be a personal enemy of Fulkan, tried to kill him? I mean can you corroborate the two incidents operated by the same person?” Armun said sternly. He thinks that he’s culpable for the death of Sidius and perceived himself to be unfledged. “ Let that Samurai come in front of me, I’ll mutilate him in pieces.” His senility spotted in.

“Don’t get so excited Armun. Whoever is doing this, will be apprehended soon.” Hudson assured. “Find the satellite images of Auburn of that day and trace the activities of Samurai and the hovercar. Start with the carrier now, need to identify the driver.”

“Waiiit..a sec… here it goes…Number plate 2758, maroon in color, registered in the name of Charlie Mena…resident of Auburn…parked at the opposite of Primewest megamall.” Sam searched for clues. “Cant get access to any mall cameras.”

“Look for other CCTVs on the other side of road. Its clear that the criminal used the residents car as a diversion. Go on…Go on… stop, who’s that?” Hudson pointed. “ Rewind it a bit… and stop.” The car was accessed by a woman , wrapped her face in black veil and wore shades. She was a bit jittery and was constantly gazing randomly the avert suspicion. “Sam, keeping an eye on her , find out her whereabouts.” Hudson directed Sam.

“She landed at Auburn two days ago before the incident. Ahhh… there she is waiting at the lounge. Is she is one of Vipers men ,sir?” Sam was flustered.

“Not that I know of. Till now 13 of Vipers men has been encountered by COD in last 48 hours and the operation is continuing. Whats her passport ID?”

“It says Jilly Mckenzie. Age 38, suffering from asthma and dementia, PHD in history.”

Having a glimpse on the passport ID , Navan was going to say something, but he controlled himself to divulge his opinion. “Excuse me for a minute” Coming out of the room, Navan was introspective. Something is staggering his conscience but he could not catch it , the derth of clues is apparent. He was sceptical about Sidius , but was he so? Is there a connection between COD and Viper? Who would it be? Any why he’s trying to dissuade the errand of AD5 vaccine? No wonder He was paranoid about every single one in this world. Didn’t the despicable thought twice before vociferously destroying his fathers company?

“Check out the collaborations and liaison of Adage with other companies, keeping the same link with Bhavishya and Cleocorp. Give me the reports of past 10 years.” Navan entered the room again  and directed Sam.

“Don’t know how relevant this is but anyway…” Sam handed over the tablet to Navan.

“All I got is that, 2021 onwards, Adage disseminated Mordana and in three months Bhavishya group partnered with them. Later Cleocorp, Lucatrion and EN TRASTE were also in news before a year of apocalypse to provide secured chemical compositions as many flaws and discrepancies were found after vaccination. To stave off accusations, these 6 industries partnered worked on improvement. Because Adage was running through a disparity as classified information got revealed in market by false mails from Higher Biomedical. Fundings and donations also made by these companies to the Foundation which was disbanded later.” Navan researched and explained.

“Wait… Lucatrion? This is a new information we just got exposed.” Armun started searching about Lucatrion and said “Yes, this company also used to adulterate in logistics and supply of bio serums, and this time they collabed with the other 5 industries too. For greater good all these 6 got exposed after the traps set by unknown, later apprehended by IBM EX FORCE, to be one of terrorist groups.  I think Lucatrion also needed to be secured as I portend, similar destruction could take place. All the 6 continued their operations, blatantly after this too and didn’t stopped the swindle.” Armun surmised.

“But we have no intels regarding this Swiss Industry! How are you so confident about this?” Sam scoffed. “If we include Lucatrion , 6 industries are in target
