Chapter 44 - Catching the thief. 

"Also, after they come to your house, if two police officers catch them, then don't panic. I am sending them to catch your brother and Jafar's nephew. When I go to your house, I will tell you the full details," Arthur quickly said and hung up the phone.

Mark, after hearing Arthur's word, quickly left the police station. He also called John, and they were going toward the east plaza. They know it is impossible to find those two people in the market area, so they were waiting for them near Devid's house. If Arthur's prediction is correct, then they will come here.

They looked at the time. It was now 8:09 p.m. 5 minutes passed since Arthur called Mark, so it means they still did not come home. Because Devid's house is near to the police station, in less than 5 minutes they reached here, and it was impossible for those two to come back home in less than 5 minutes.

"Mark, do you think today two people will come here?" John whispered to Mark.

"I don't know, but Arthur told me that they will come here. So, it means they will come here," Mark said to him. Well, he had full confidence in Arthur.

John nodded, hearing his words. Well, he also has confidence in Arthur. Even previously, he had doubts about Arthur's words, but after the previous case, he also began to trust in Arthur.

So, without making any sound, they began while they were hiding. It has been 25 minutes, but they still can't see any suspicious person on the road. They only notice normal people and cars. But they still didn't give up.

At 10:05 p.m., they finally saw two people. Those two people got out of the taxi, and they were still far away. If there is no streetlight on this road, then they won't be able to see, because of the streetlight Mark and John notice those two people's figures and the dress.

As Arthur described these two suspicious people, those two people looked the same. One is wearing a hoodie and the other one is wearing a jacket with a cap on his head.

Mark and John look at each other. Well, Mark tells John in code language that these two people were their target. They were the same as Arthur's description. Both of them were coming this way while carefully observing the surroundings.

Mark and John also saw two sealed boxes with those people. Those boxes were really suspicious boxes. Who knows what is inside these two boxes?

So, they are naturally Garem and Gary. Arthur told him about them. Both of them come this way pretty carefully. Well, they won't be able to see Mark and John. Both of them, hiding themselves, and so did Garem and Gary to notice them, are impossible.

At this time, there are very few people on the road. Well, a pretty good situation for them. Sometime later, Garem and Gary cross the place where Mark and John are hiding.

Mark and John still stay there. This wasn't the right time to move. They silently saw both Garem and Gary going closer and closer to home. When Mark saw that both Garem and Gary are pretty far away, he, Signal John, and both of them came out of their hiding place.

He silently advances toward the Devid's house. They are 20 km to 25 km away from Devid's house, while those two suspects are 5 km away. Mark and John maintain this distance so that those two suspects didn't notice them.

When those suspects are in front of Devid's house, they stop advancing. Seeing this, Mark and John instantly hide themselves.

Those two suspects first looked around them, then the person who was wearing a hoodie began to say something to the person who had a cap on his head. They are probably discussing something, but what?

Well, Mark didn't waste his time guessing and once again following those two people. Both of them decided on something and then advanced toward the gate. They tap the calling bell. Well, this time probably the guard went to eat his dinner. But, hearing the calling bell, he came out quickly and ran toward the gate.

Both of these suspects enter, and with no talking, go toward the house. But one thing they didn't notice was that the guard didn't close the door.

When previously Arthur told Devid that his two police friends will come after his brother and Jafar's nephew come to his house. So, Devid did a good job, that is he informed the guard that when Garem and Gary enter the main gate, he shouldn't close the door. Two policemen will come after them. So, because of this, the guard didn't close the main gate.

Mark and John also notice that the guard didn't close the main door. Well, Arthur previously told him that he will inform the Owner of this house about their arrival. So, it's probably his work.

Mark and John quickly came toward the gate. The guard at this time looked around outside the house. Well, he is probably looking for them. Seeing two figures quickly running in his direction, at first he was startled, but he noticed the police uniform.

He didn't say anything and just stood beside the gate. "Good work," both Mark and John said to the guard. After entering the gate, they didn't waste any time and ran toward the house.

They can see the gate of the house also open, and he can see those two suspicious people standing in the hall room and talking with another person. Just looking at the third person, you guess he should be the Devid.

Probably he didn't close the doors and also kept both of them busy in the hall room. Mark and John didn't waste any time and quickly entered the house and said, "hands up Garem Yegar and Gary Hafim."

Both of them were startled and turned around and looked at the two pointing their guns at them. Instantly, both of them with no thought raise their hands in the air. The box that was with them fell to the ground.

Devid and other members of his house silently looked at this scene. No one makes any sound at this moment.

"Stay like this and don't try to be over smart," Mark said and signaled John. John nodded and started advancing toward them. He is going to take those boxes.

Seeing John coming closer and closer made those two very nervous. They were sweating badly. But, they can't do anything. Seeing the gun pointing in their direction, they didn't have the courage to do anything.

John didn't care about them. He took those boxes and came beside Mark. He started to open the box. When the box opens, Mark and John become shocked. They can see many sealed packets of white things. John took one packet and examined it carefully. Finally, John looked at Mark and said, "Drugs."

All those Devid and the others didn't do anything, they only saw silently that one policeman was advancing toward Garem and Gary. Then he took the box and once again beside the other policeman.

All of them also wanted to know what was inside the box. When the policeman opened the box, they also looked at him. They also wanted to know. The policeman opened the box and brought out a packet of white things. They didn't know what was that white power like thing. But, when the policeman said the other thing is the drugs, Devid, his wife, and the others were pretty shocked. They never thought in those two boxes there would be drugs.

"You two are under arrest," Mark said to them. Both of them know they can't run away, they can only see helplessly John bringing two handcuffs.

A few minutes later,

"You should be Devid. Well, Arthur told you some good news. He found the thief of the ring." Arthur said to Devid.

" Are you saying true, Mr. Policeman?" Instantly, Devid forgot about the previous matter and asked excitedly.

Mark only nodded and pointed his finger at Gary.

"He is the thief," he said to Devid.

Devid instantly went toward Gary and slapped him.

"You, thief, tell me where the ring is?" He asked after that. But Jafar didn't say anything. Devid didn't give up and kept asking. But Gary didn't say anything.

John stopped Devid.

"Let me go, officer. I need the ring. It is a life and death matter for my store. Let me go officer." He said to John with an almost crying expression. No one can understand how much pressure he was in.

"Don't waste your time, and trust Arthur. He found the thief, so don't worry about bringing back the ring you are asking for. Just wait until Arthur comes here," Mark said to him.

Only then did Devid come back to his senses. Well, who can blame him? After finding the thief, he just wanted to know about his ring.
