CRAZY SIDE CHICK
Chapter 17
“Don’t move an inch!” Warned the CID officer as Daniel froze his arms up in the air.
Mwewa only wondered why this scene could be, involving his mistress and Daniel in a gravious beating.He could have asked Daniel about this if he had a chance that evening,but he was in handcuffs,guarded by a police officer in the backseat of the police car.
The officer leaned Daniel hard against his own car and handcuffed him.Daniel panted and trembled profoundly,and sweat dripped allover his body.The CID officer then called for back up from his fellows who arrived with a police vehicle and picked up Daniel.
An ambulance was called too for Mwaka who laid down on the ground, groaning and screaming in pain as she bled from her womanhood.She was soon taken to the hospital where a doctor signed that she had sustained a miscarriage from the beating.She got admitted under police watch and she would be discharged in a week’s time,to face the police over the Kidnapping of Mwewa from her apartment.
Daniel was locked up in a different cell from Mwewa’s as they both awaited interrogations the following day.Daniel would probably be facing charges of assault and interrogations on what had led to the fight with a suspect(meals) of the Kidnapping.
Mwewa would be attending more interrogations too,the following day.Especially on how his docvments were found at the murder scene.
But by the way,the two thugs that worked for Daniel,had recently passed by a street in town and sold the two mobile phones they had taken from the detective and the doctor after the killings,and before they fled out of the City.
So the day after the night Daniel was arrested,the police traced the two smart phones and had just caught a young street hustler in possession of the same.So the young man was first to attend interrogations.
“Where did you buy the smart phones,and who sold them to you?” Asked a detective.
“I bought on the street from some men,” said the young man.
“Where do we find those men?”
“I don’t know, bwana.But after the transaction on the street,the two men asked if I knew anyone whom they could hire to privately drive them out of town and I took them to a friend who is in transportation business.He can be the best person to lead you where those men could be,” stated the young street dealer.
“Interesting,” said the detective,” so take us to this friend of yours.”
“Yes bwana”
And that’s how the police managed to track down the two assassins, through their hired driver,a while ago.They found the two criminals in possession of two unlicensed pistols,and one legalized and clean unloaded pistol that they robbed from Mwewa.
Mwewa stood behind bars when the police led the two assassins past him.They were heading to Daniel’s cell.Mwewa recognized their faces and screamed,” you! I know you! Officer those are the same idiots that kidnapped me!”
The two assassins glanced at Mwewa and recognized him too but looked away as the police officers who were leading them in continued their way.On their way back in the hallway,the police officers told Mwewa to report to the detective during the questioning period.
Mwewa felt at peace after a long night of anxiety in the cell.He deliberately couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw his two ‘kidnapers’.He was like,” this is a good sign!.”

Daniel was sitting in his cell with his troubled head down with his fists under his chin, thinking of the hell he was going through now.Then bang!The police officers opened the heavily grilled door to his cell and his fellow conspirators in crime were being ushered into the same cell he was!
But there was another criminal called Mubita in the same cell who stood up to welcome Daniel’s fellows.This was an armed robber who hid his criminal profession in the bus driving business.He had at several occasions worked with the two assassins.
“The west kids!” Mubita smilingly hit hands with the assassins.The ‘West Kids’ were the criminals’ ghetto gang name.The west kids greeted back dismayed when they saw Daniel who stood up slowly, greatly surprised that they were in the same cell!
“You?” Daniel said.
“Boss,” they still called him.
“What happened?” Daniel asked with curiosity and anger.
The west kids told him how the driver who was to drive them away landed them in the arms of the cops.They told him about the cellphones and guns too.
“Whatever! Where’s my money?You never worked as expected!” Daniel was whispering at the west kids furiously.
“Boss,relax” they told him,calmly.
“I thought you guys were professionals.Look at us now!You are both useless!” Said Daniel.
The west kids remained silent as Daniel continued to lamentably underate the assassins for sweeping them into this mess they were all in now. I so much love coolvalstories
Mubita listened and tried to connect what the discussion ~was about and asked what had happened and the west kids told him a part or two of their crimes but never mentioned about the mur~ ders.
“Men,you are never coming back home!” Concluded Mubita and teased them to greet some of the people he knew from prison when they got there.
“What about you?Are we ~not going together to prison?” Asked the west kids.
“Am here for a simple case.I hit somebody with a bus and luckily he wasn’t badly hurt.My boss is coming to bail me out today,” said Mubita.~
Daniel overheard as Mubita chatted with the west kids.And following their conversation,Daniel interrupted:
“What do you do for a living?” Asked Daniel.
Mubita answered,” I am a bus driver,why do you ask?”
“Meaning you work for someone as a bus driver?”
Mubita nodded,”uh-huh?”
“What’s your monthly income?” Daniel asked.
“Just get to your point,” said Mubita solemnly.
“Okay…..okay,” Daniel said,” I have a job for you that can pay you an annual income in just a day!”
Mubita snickered,” what job?”
“Good,” Daniel got even closer to Mubita’s ears,” ~you and these two here(the west kids) can get me out of here and I can pay you handsomely for it.All you have to do is follow my plan.”
~
One of the west kids said,” whatever your plans are,it’s too late for them.The man we kidnapped saw us and recognized us on our way in here just a while ago”
“He saw you?” ~Daniel said to the west kids,” ok…you have made so many mistakes in this which has landed you here.But listen to me, don’t ever make anymore mistakes.Follow my orders if you want the way out of prison.”~
“Way out of prison? How’s that Even possible we have got the most revealing evidence against us right on the police desks.The guns, cellphones and the person we kidnapped”
“Listen,” said Daniel,” I know you are not escaping this now.But I can get you guys out of prison later after my freedom.With the help of Mubita,I can get out of here as iam here only for assault.I have the money and I have the right answers to every question the police will ask.With money everything is possible.I will get you out of prison when am out but for now, let Mubita help us.”
“Help you how?” Asked Mubita.
