Episode 14

A few hours later, the news finally went public that Michael Nelson was a suspected Kira and had been in hostage.
Lucky and Nelly heard the news at school at the same time and looked at each other. They were inside a restaurant. Only a few students were found there watching the news like everyone else. Those who knew Mike became astonished to such an accusation. How can Mike be Kira?
Nelly glanced at Lucky again. ā€œHow on earth would the police suspect Mike to be Kira, a son of a police officer for that matterā€ she said with a disbelief.

ā€œIā€™m as surprised as you areā€ Lucky responded even though he had a very concrete evidence to prove that Mike was Kira.
Nevertheless, they all watched to see what would happen.

:

At the station, Mike, Dera, Vera and their father were monitored when they were about to broadcast criminals on the television. A set of television could be found on each room showing the same thing. Shakiti was right there too watching the TV.
Suddenly, three criminals and their names came live on air. The whole Gezos City became calmed to know what would really happen. It was clear to everyone that if the criminals die, Mike and his family would be set free which would signify that none of them is Kira.

Vera watched the television with some policemen standing beside her with guns. Likewise others especially in the room Michael was. Laman and many others policemen monitored him too. He didnā€™t make a move, or showed any sign of fear in him. Likewise Shakiti who never left his back, in fact, he folded his hands and legs in the air to watch the show happily.

As the entire city watched, the three criminals died instantly on the television. That was a piece of amazement to each citizen especally Laman who turned to Mike staring at him like a man watching a woman who is about to get naked. Yes, he had been proved innocent but Laman never believed that he was innocent.
On the other hand, Vera was covered with shame and disappointment. She regrated ever accusing her brother wrongly. But who could be Kira? Who must have killed those criminals?

That was a question in the mouth of everyone especially Laman who moved gently to Mike still staring into his eyes.
ā€œI guess youā€™ve seen that Iā€™m not Kiraā€ Michael told him calmly.
ā€œYes, Iā€™ve seen but I still donā€™t believe youā€ Laman placed a hand in his pocket. His eyes never departed from him.
Mike provorked and hit his hands on the table forcefully. The noise triggered some policemen to point their guns at him. ā€œWhat more prove do you want to believe that Iā€™m not Kira!!ā€ his voice was loud enough to be heard by Vera who was in the next room.
ā€œI believe youā€™re working with someone, Mikeā€ Laman replied.

ā€œF–k up!! I give you few minutes to release me and my family otherwise Iā€™ll sue you to high court of law, and I swear youā€™ll find yourself in prisonā€

Laman turned his back on him still with his hands in the pocket. ā€œIā€™ll let you and your family go, but you must understand that Iā€™m doing my job, Mikeā€ he faced him critically again in silence. ā€œIā€™ll forever suspect you to be Kira, Mike, and when I have a concrete evidence, you will not just find yourself in prison, but six fit on the ground. Secondly, Iā€™ll let the world know that if I die any moment from now, you would be responsible for thatā€ he briskly began to walk out of the room. At reaching the door, he commanded one of the men to release them.
:

Mr Nelson and his family were released. They could be seen walking out of the police station. The twins were in the front followed by Michael and their father. All other policemen watched them as they walked down to their family car. Michael was the last person to enter into the car, he glanced at Laman who was at the window staring at him then finally entered before the car set in motion. Shakiti floated from behind.
Michael and the father were in the front seat while the twins at the back seat. Occasionally, Michaelā€™s eyes caught with Veraā€™s through the inner centre mirror. He hated her the more!!
Truly, Michael was Kira, he was under a watch during the broadcast of the criminals. Also, Shakiti was right there too, but who must have killed the criminals Like Kira? Only Michael could answer that question, so as they drove home, he smiled remembering how he did it..
