After a few seconds of processing the contents from the police officer, Inspector Kodua discarded the idea of leaving as he went back to his heat.
After settling down, he brought out the mobile phone which the police officer handed to him. After placing it in front of Mr. Joe, he asked, "This is your mobile phone right?"
"Do you recognize this phone number?" Pointing to a series of numbers on the phone's screen, Inspector Kodua asked.
Apparently, the mobile phone was Mr. Joe's phone. It was found on him after his arrest.
Taking a look at what Inspector Kodua was referring to, Mr. Joe became confused as he failed to recognize the numbers.
"No, I don't." Mr. Joe replied truthfully. Even after going through his memories, he failed to recognize the number.
To be honest, even if he had seen the numbers before, he would still find it hard to recognize them. Because of the numerous people he has dealings with, it is difficult to keep all their phone numbers in his head.
_It seems he's telling the truth._ Inspector thought after observing Mr. Joe's reaction closely. Even after scrutinizing Mr. Joe's every move of his facial expression, he still failed to detect any concealment. It could only mean that he was telling the truth.
_This particular number has been calling your phone number numerous times today. Are you sure you don't recognize this number? Think carefully. Inspector Kodua insisted as he continued to monitor Mr. Joe's reaction.
_Wait! This number is known to only a few people. Who could it be? Upon hearing that the number had called his number numerous times today, he was stunned.
It should be known that because of the nature of his work, he doesn't use one particular number. He has about three numbers and each is used to communicate with different groups of people.
One is used to communicate with his relatives, the other just for friendly interaction with his business partners while the other is used to communicate with his business partners concerning serious jobs that need to be taken care of.
However, for the sake of the secrecy of the nature of his job and the missions he undertakes, whenever he is on a mission, he only uses the one used to communicate with his friends and relatives.
"I'm sure this is one of my friends. But who could it be? Mr. Joe cracked his mind as he sought to obtain an idea.
_ Could it be?_ Mr. Joe furrowed his brows as a sudden name came to his mind. After cracking his brain, it was Mr. Joe's name that came to his mind.
It should be known that due to his position and fame, all his friends respect the fact that he's a busy man hence when they fail to get to him on their first call attempt, they wait until he calls them back.
It is only the minister who would dare disrespect him.
" Damn it! Today is the 2nd day. I promised to call him on the third day. Why can't he exercise some patience? Damn it! Mr. Joe cursed inwardly.
