Chapter 3 - The Hunter’s Investigation

A little far from this place someone is watching the video projected on the screen of a tablet, while sitting on a sofa and two kids are playing with a maid near him in the vicinity. It is the same picture of the jungle, seems like the drone belongs to him.

On the same time Rani calls to the elephants, "Didi, stone..." and the elephant is quite understanding and put up a stone using her long snort and gave it to Rani, who's still sitting on her back. ("Didi" is a Hindi word which means "elder sister")

She immediately surrounds that stone in a long blue coloured cloth and starts spinning the cloth fast. It seems like, it is some sort of throwing skill and suddenly the stone rushes towards the drone and hits it with high speed, breaking its camera.

There, the man looking to the screen suddenly losses contact with the drone, and it shows, "NO SIGNAL!" on the screen. And then he sends another drone to that one forest and sees a large elephant with giant tusks in the middle of the forest swimming in the lake seems like this elephant is the leader of the pack, and he suddenly orders to his subordinates to stop the drone and sends this live video to his familiar hunter.

"Oh, my God, that large tusks. Are you seeing this Keshav." The man asks the Hunter in amazement, whose name seems to be Keshav.

"Oh, Krishna! I haven't seen this large elephant tusk before." Said Keshav in puzzlement. (Krishna is the name of one of the avatar of Lord Vishnu, The Creator in Hinduism)

"They've grown so long that they crossed....." Says the man commenting the tusks of the elephant which was grown so long that made a crossed shape by crossing each other and then the man releases and evil laughter.

"At least, 16 feet." Says the man happily. "Common ivory costs 2,000 Dollars per kilo but this will cost ten times more of it."

"Mr. Wieng, You know, I don't hunt for money..... but a greedy person like you cannot understand this." Says Reshav calling the evil man by his name. So his name is 'Wieng'.

"This spirit of yours is..." Mr. Wieng start to say something but Keshav cuts it says, "You can call it what do you want, but this bull is one of the last great tuskers you have ever seen."

"And it is his right to face a hunter of his caliber." Further, added the Keshav with an evil grin. Then Mr. Wieng says, "I'm happy to leave that to you.... the game is on now, and I'm sure you'll do it."

The Hunter cuts the call and stare at the projected picture of the ELEPHANT.
