Inspector Ajinkya got excited for some action by hearing the plan. "Then what are we waiting for, sir? Lets get into action and kick their ass." 

Satya chided him. "What do you think? Is it a piece of cake? Virat Chavan toh yu hi sadko par khula ghumta hoga na bina kisi protection ke ki gaye aur pakad liye. Aur agar ghumta bhi hoga to saboot bhi toh jutane honge uske against aur phir ye hamara city hai koi war zone nahi ki khuleaam hum open fire kar denge usko dekhte hi....sab kuch sochna padta hai." Satya said in sarcasm. 

"Sorry sir." Ajinkya apologized for his naivety. 

"Josh hona achhi baat hai par josh ke sath hosh se bhi kaam lena aana chahiye. Zara socho wo Virat Chavan jo hamare desh se milo dur dusre desh mein baithkar apna karobaar yaha chala sakta hai Mumbai par raaj kar sakta hai usko pakadna kitna mushkil hoga. Uski pal pal ki khabar chahiye hogi. Uske business ki information wo kab kaha rehta hai, aata jata hai, uske aas paas uske kitne gang members hain...yaha tak ki kya soch raha hai is waqt sab kuch pata hona chahiye hume." Satya explained.

Mohit agreed with Satya to get some brownie points. "Sahi kaha sir. Waise sirf Virat Chavan hi nahi baki ke mafia lords ko bhi eliminate karna itna aasaan nahi hai. Jante toh sab hain unke businesses ke bare mein lekin ye log itna chalaki se kaam karte hain ki koi sabot nahi chhodte aur rahi sahi kasar hamare hi system mein baithe inke favor ke log pura kar dete hain. Hamara pura system hi corrupt ho chuka hai tabhi toh abhi tak ye log khule ghum rahe hain."

Karishma finally noticed Mohit's valid point and smiled at him. "Dcp sir, inspector Mohit is right. Hume in sab ko raaste se hatana hai to bahut chalaaki se kaam lena padega. Apne khabri, spy, informers sab ko active karna hoga.

Inspector Ajinkya didn't want to be left behind to come in Satya's good book so he also shared his concerns. "But sir our spy network has always failed in gathering right information about them especially about Virat Chavan. He operates so secretively. He is almost a ghost. Hume uski pal pal ki information dega kaun?" 

Satya smiled and changed the slide of presentation. Now there was a photo of a girl. He spoke when he had everyone's attention. "That's why we need someone who can be an insider for us. Someone who will live around him and gives each and every detail about him to us."

"Sir, you mean someone from his gang will work for us? Or we should plant one of our man in his gang?" Mohit concluded. 

"Virat's gang members are very loyal. Till now I have not heard of anyone who in his close circle has tried to betray him and planting someone from our team is also not a good option as it will be very difficult for that person to come in his trusted circle very soon." Satya answered. 

"Then where we will find such person?" Mohit asked again.

Satya said while pointing towards the photo of a girl on the projector. "I have already found her but still had to persuade her to do this." 

All the officers looked at the photo with shock. "A girl!" Their informant is a woman. They all found it difficult to digest. 

"Yes, She is the one." Satya said and changed the slide which now showed the clearer picture of that woman.

She was a beautiful woman. In the picture, she was playing with some kids in a place which looked like an orphanage. There was innocence on her face but her eyes looked empty and blank as if there was some incomplete tale in them which was waiting to be told. Tall, curvaceous figure, long hair and infectious smile could make anyone crazy for her. Such a beautiful and innocent looking woman, a police informer? Everyone was finding it difficult to believe.

Satya looked at everyone's face. He knew their doubts and disbelief. He started explaining. "She is living by the name of Sonia Khanna in small orphanage of Pune since 5 years. Has every document and Ids of that name but its not her true identity." Satya informed everyone.

"Then who is she?" Karishma asked. 

"She is Sai Joshi. Virat Chavan's girlfriend or I should say ex girlfriend." Satya answered and turned around to look everyone's face. All were shocked by this revelation.
