Chapter 4 : Zu Lee - Facing The Dragon

"Armaan is right." Bahadur said "answers lie in China"

"Speak clearly Bahadur," Sharma said

"The only Chinese person to book into to hotel marigold last month was  Zu
Lee" Bahadur said

"I'll ask him to be tracked," Sharma replied

A background scan was done on Zu Lee. It was found that he was vice president of dragon pharmaceuticals company based on Beijing. It was decided to monitor his activities and to obtain more information about the company before a covert operation could be planed.

"Do you have any plan?"

"It will be an abduction."

"I'm going out for a walk," Zafar said and left the room.

All four of them were in Hotel Marigold. Armaan turned on the news channel

"Looks like Rajanswami will win the upcoming election if this anchor is reliable, "Armaan said 

Varun suddenly turned towards the television his eyes were fixed on screen he was still thinking about Rajan.

'Breaking News' the screen flashed

Armaan switched the channel.

"Look the new Salman Khan Movie is having its premiere. I don't want to miss it for sure!" Armaan said 

"Come on! We are here on a serious business Armaan !" Bahadur said.

"Looks Like you are a Shah Ruk fan Bahadur." Armaan joked

"I'm going to sleep' Varun said and went towards the bedroom.

"When will it end ?" Bahadur asked Armaan

"11:30." It says

"Ok. Now shift. I also want to watch it" Bahadur said

Bahadur was on the watch in the opposite wing. While Zafar, Armaan, and Varun were on the same floor as Zu Lee.

Bahadur called Varun just when he saw lights going off in Lee's room.

Varun and Zafar found him locking his room and going towards the lift. Armaan was to follow five minutes late as he was the backup.

As soon as he pushed the lift button Varun sneaked behind him

"Follow us toward the fire exit if you don't want to die, Lee, I have a gun," Varun said 

Lee followed him without a question and as soon as they entered the fire exit Zafar made him inhale Chloroform after which Lee fainted. They took him to the Van.

"Armann will come any minute Bahadur, "said 

"Mission complete" Zafar rejoice

Exactly at that moment, they heard gunshots from inside the hotel

"I'll go and check if Armaan is alright!!" Bahadur shouted you too escape 

"It looks like we have been double-crossed!" Varun said 

Bahadur ran inside the hotel and Zafar drove away from the van with Varun and Lee inside it.
