((First of all, thousand apologies for not showing up for so long due to busy schedule. Secondly, I have already written the things I am going to post in the MS Word. And thirdly, I am also in the game as Yousuf Ahmad.
Now looks like I have introduced everything, so let us start. Note that you are free to post anything as that would help me in my school work.
Now please, don't ask my age and listen, I was busy due to exams.
See you on the stage!))

Yousuf knew that they were thrown in by the ropes. The second he thought that, another thought came into his mind: “If they wanted to kill us, they could have done that in Mr. Anderson’s mansion. If they did not want to leave a single clue behind, they could have just dropped us from the ventilator and we our bones would be broken into pieces. But why would they bother to carefully keep us in this room without any escape. They don’t want to kill us; they want to do something else.” As he thought about it, he jumped with fear. Eventually, the thought was really a terrifying one. He prayed that it was wrong. Anderson asked why he jumped and he replied: “I thought of a horrible thing. The people who abducted us want to perform some particular actions in our disguise and after that, they would release us which means that all the blame would be set on us and they would enjoy the show while drinking wine, whiskey, beer or whatever, laughing at us being accused of many crimes they committed.”
Anderson was shaken because of fear and he said: “That’s impossible! That’s ridiculous!”
Yousuf replied with a sigh: “I wish it is.”

It has been two days since Abdur Rahman visited the missing postman’s apartment. Although he was still praying to encounter some incident which leads to some clues, he had not sat still. He took the rest at nights and in the morning, he would be found on the streets interviewing different people.
Finally, after a struggle of two days, he was given a small clue which might be helpful and may not be helpful.
Abdur Rahman was now walking towards a small café. There he talked to the counter clerk for sometime and his eyes started shining. After all, he had gotten some leads.
Next minute, Abdur Rahman was sitting in a cab which was heading towards a certain destination. When the cab stopped, Abdur Rahman descended, paid the man and entered a large building. It was an office.
Abdur Rahman asked the man sitting at the reception about Mr. Derrick and received a reply that Mr. Derrick was on leave for two months.
“What the…!” exclaimed Abdur Rahman
He was really frustrated by all this ‘searching for clues’ and ‘wandering on the street’ business. He really wished that he could become one of the fictional detectives who never end up at a dead end and solve cases while sitting on their comfortable armchairs, drinking whatever they want.
Abdur Rahman took some rest and went out to wander through the streets again, interviewing different people.

Yousuf Ahmad had another thought that was really confusing. He told Anderson about it and he was also confused. Yousuf said: “I think my previous deduction was wrong. There are many possibilities about what is going to happen but right now we should plan our escape. My height is six feet and so is yours. Therefore, if I stand on your shoulder and I suppose I can as you are a tough man, then it makes four yards. There are still six yards left to cover. If I try to throw my switch blade after tying it to the ropes we saved, there is one out of hundred chances that it may get stuck into something up there. But before that, we need to check how tough my blade is, so that we don’t lose it for nothing.”
Anderson replied: “Yousuf! Why don’t you first check the room? Maybe the room has a secret entrance and the ventilator is there for fresh air. Maybe they made it large to deceive the others.”
Yousuf replied: “As you wish!”
After banging the whole room with his blade’s back and listening carefully, Yousuf nodded in negative and said: “There might be a secret entrance but not such that it can be heard by banging the walls with a switch blade. However, I shall try using my mind and hands, you should also think about where it could be.”

Anderson nodded and both set to work. After an hour, Yousuf exclaimed: “Wow! Looks like we were lucky enough, like fictional detectives always are. I have found the way.
The other minute, both were walking in a wide tunnel which was dark. They kept on walking for two hours, using the walls as a support and also kept on calling each other so that they might not get lost. After two hours, they found themselves in a room filled with weapons. At one side, there laid some guns and at the other side laid some daggers, dirks, swords and scimitars. There was a staircase leading up to a door.
Yousuf Ahmad took one dirk, placing it in the back pocket with his blade. He then took two revolvers, putting each in his pockets on either side. Then, he took a Tommy gun and hung it to his shoulder and said: “Mr. Anderson, I think we are ready to act.”
Both men then walked up the staircase and as soon as they reached the door, they heard footsteps that were slowly coming near. A minute later, a man opened the door and as he entered, he fell unconscious without making a noise. Yousuf’s martial arts had worked very well. Yousuf made sure that the man was not acting and gave him another punch on the head. They both then proceeded upwards.
Upon crossing the door, they saw that they were in a warehouse. They both hurried outside. Yousuf noticed that the warehouse was connected to an office.
Both men entered and found that the office was empty.
“Oh, I forgot something. Wait for me right here.” Yousuf told Anderson and went out.
He reached the basement and tied the unconscious man with ropes he brought with him.
Then he headed back but did not find Anderson. He hurried inside and as soon as he entered one empty room, he heard a shot. He ran to the room and found something horrible.

A newbie detective was investigating the case of the explosion in the special room. He found many evidences and was lead to the warehouse where Yousuf Ahmad was held. The mistake that newbie detective made was that he went alone. He showed the owner of the company the evidence he collected.
And now…, the situation was something like this: The newbie detective was standing with his hands above his head and there were ten men, whole in black, pointing their guns towards him.
Yousuf did not see any reason he would stop and he opened the fire. The other minute, all ten of them were down with blood streaming out from both of their legs and the man sitting behind the desk which was supposedly the boss was trembling while both his arms were bleeding. The newbie detective was dazed by the change in the situation.
Yousuf Ahmad walked in and gave each man a hand and they were all knocked out.
Then he advanced towards the boss and if he had not fallen on the right time, the bullet would have taken care of his head. Even though the boss was injured, he was brave enough to dare shooting a bullet.
As soon as Yousuf’s feet touched the ground, another shot was heard and the boss screamed out of pain. With this, the newbie detective was brought out from his stupor and he turned to the door and let out a loud scream which alarmed Yousuf on time and he jumped from his position.
There was another man in black holding a gun. Yousuf hopped like a cat and shot a fire. The man screamed and the gun was on the ground. Yousuf shot four bullets consecutively and each hit the man’s limbs. He fell on the ground and sighed in pain.
After a short period of time, the police was there and the gang was arrested. Anderson who went missing was found in another room. He was shot in the chest and the gang thought he was dead but he somehow managed to survive and was breathing slowly. He was admitted in the emergency section and later that day, Yousuf was told that Anderson’s operation was successful.

By hearing that, Yousuf felt a heavy burden moved up from his back as he was blaming himself for what happened to Anderson.
In the end, the case was closed and the culprits were caught who were the members of a smuggling syndicate.

((Note: Even though the case is closed, the story would continue as it is named as ‘The exemplary friends’. Therefore, we shall encounter some dangerous situations where our lives are at stake and show our friendship. You are most welcome to post anything relevant or irrelevant, and leave the rest up to me. It is not that I would be able to move the story from a dead end to another without any difficulty but I want to increase my creativity and that is why I am accepting this challenge.
Thanks))

(Oh yeah, one last thing I forgot to write in the story))
Yousuf still thinks it was a miracle that this story ended up like the ones of the fictional detectives.

(In Delhi, India)
Three days have passed and Abdur Rahman’s walking on roads brought him some new clues. He headed toward the local library, read some books to refresh his mind and then came out. He talked with the waiter of ‘The Royal Peacock’ about some certain things and suddenly his eyes started shining brightly. He at least knew the motive behind Rahul’s disappearance.
Now, Abdur Rahman walked towards the local bar which was well-known to be the centre or so-called meeting point of city’s crooks.
Abdur Rahman entered with his nose closed and made a bad face. He did not like drinking and this was, maybe the first time in his life that he was entering a bar. He chatted with some drunks and when he came out, he had a wide smile set on his face.
He headed towards the hotel which was well-known for the hideout of a faction in the underground world. After sometime, Abdur Rahman was walking towards a skyscraper. He felt someone was following him but when he turned he could not make out who the person was.
He continued to walk and then up he went. Some time later, he was on the top floor, entering an office named as ‘Isabella and Jackson Co.’. This company was very famous for the decoration of houses, offices and other building and was probably the best interior designing company in the whole town. Both Isabella and Jackson were British national and worked together as partners.
Abdur Rahman asked the clerk for an appointment with Mr. Jackson. He was given the time which he passed patiently and when his time came, he asked Mr. Jackson if he could spare some time after the company closed and meet him downstairs. Mr. Jackson accepted the request and at eight in the night, both men were walking together.
Suddenly, Abdur Rahman asked: “Mr. Jackson, when did you leave the Green Hand faction?”
This question was so unexpected that Jackson could not even think of anything and involuntarily replied: “A year ago.”
Abdur Rahman asked: “Why did you become their enemy?”

Feb-20-2009 21:54

Jackson has gained control over himself and now replied: “Who are you to ask me?”
Abdur Rahman replied calmly: “Call me Abdur Rahman. I am a businessman and came to see you so that you would give me some advice about how to decorate my shop.”
Jackson said: “Then I will give you some advice but first let me have a cigarette. Do you want one?”
Abdur Rahman grinned: “Sure, go ahead. I don’t smoke”
The next moment, Jackson took out a gun pointed at Abdur Rahman and snarled: “Put your hands above your head and tell me about the clues that brought you here.”
Abdur Rahman said (with his face having an idiotic expression): “What clues? I came here for the reason I told you.”
Jackson growled: “Don’t try to mock be or you will end up dead.”
Abdur Rahman replied: “Yes Sir! I would never mock you again. By the way, who is Rahul Malotra? I heard he was a postman who went missing. I that right, boss?”
Jackson face went pale and he threatened Abdur Rahman: “Kid, now there is no reason I would leave you alive.”
Abdur Rahman replied: “I am at your service boss. I shall obey whatever you say. So, drop your gun and give up.”
Jackson replied by shooting a bullet but only the sound of “Truch” was heard. Abdur Rahman smiled: “Mr. Jackson, do not bother shooting the next bullet because they are in my pocket. Now you better give up or I’ll have to take some serious actions.
Jackson acted as if he did not hear to what Abdur Rahman said. He quickly took his hand inside his pocket and then…

(In London, England)
Yousuf now was free and he did not forget that he was planning to visit Abdur Rahman Ahmad, his best friend, who lived in India.
Next day, Yousuf was boarding on a ship which reached India after two days. Yousuf went to the house of Abdur Rahman Ahmad and found a note stuck on the door that Abdur Rahman was out on a trip to Delhi and would not be coming back soon. The date was written as third of August.
“Today is fifth of August so he must have left two days before.” Yousuf thought
That night, a tall man disembarked from a train at Delhi train station. He asked the townspeople some questions and next day, he was tailing a medium man of muscular built.
He continued to tail him till the night replaced the day. Then he saw that the man he was tailing was with another man who was tall and heavy built.
He was surprised when the tall man took out a gun. His hand quickly went into his pocket and when it came out, it was holding a revolver. Then he saw that the man he was tailing was smiling.
Suddenly, his fingers pressed the trigger, upon seeing the tall man trying to reach his pocket. The tall man let out a loud scream and held his bleeding hand.
He then said: “Phew! Abdur Rahman, you sure do a lot of dangerous things.”
Abdur Rahman replied: “Well my friend, this is life. By the way, when did you come from London?”
“Yesterday” Yousuf replied and then said: “What are you waiting for? Take out his other gun and then call the police.”
Abdur Rahman said: “Sure, boss.”
Half an hour later, the culprit was arrested and the missing postman was retrieved safely.
“Now, tell me how you did you find this guy?” Yousuf said
