Chapter 43: Chapter 43 : Gold Coin
"It's ok. you can bring the girl inside." The middle-aged man inside the Range Rover said while drinking the liquor. After listening to the middle-aged man's voice, the lady in the red dress kept silent without uttering a single word.
As the car is customised, the seats are arranged opposite each other. Das sat right across from the dealer, and the dumb girl also sat beside him as he was still holding her hand. The middle-aged man poured a drink and offered it to Das.
"No, I won't drink in the morning." Das denied the liquor glass with a hand gesture.
"What is your name?" The dealer asked as he passed the drink to the girl who sat beside him.
"Das, Mohan Das..."
"Good... good... Das, do you know why I wanted to meet you?" The dealer asked while sipping the liquor. Das took the ghost card out of his pocket.
"Because of this..." Das said while holding the ghost card in his hands. The dealer, who is busily sipping the liquor, gave Das a mysterious look after seeing the ghost card in his hands.
"Young man, let me have a look at the black card in your hands." The dealer requested as he stretched his hand for the card in Das hands. Das passed on the card like a young master flaunting his wealth.
The dealer started by carefully observing the card; he stroked the skull gently with his thumb before confirming something.
"Das, do you know the value of this card?" The dealer asked while he was still looking at the ghost card.
"Ten billion American dollars." Das replied while giving a mysterious smile. The dealer felt astonished after knowing the actual value of the black card in his hands.
"Das, in my entire life, I have only seen this card once. That too is in the hands of a powerful person from a hidden family. After so many years, I'm seeing this card again in your hands." The dealer replied as he caressed the black card in his hands.
"The card is worth only ten billion dollars. But as far as I know, your Zebra organisation has several billion in funds." Das commented that he did not understand why this middle-aged man was acting so mysteriously about the ghost card.
"Das, you did not know the true value of this card. This card is a symbol of strength. This card only appears in the hands of super-rich people with sufficient status. One can access several high-level auctions and antique sales, and you can also have direct entry into any secret organisation with this card." The middle-aged man explained as he stared at Das with a curious look. Das was also looking right into the middle-aged man without showing any weakness.
"Das, I don't know about your hidden background or your secret identity, but I suggest you use this card well." The middle-aged man spoke with a respectful tone while passing the ghost card back to Das.
After Das picked up the card, the middle-aged man gestured with his hand for a handshake. Without thinking much, Das stretched his hand for the handshake. The middle-aged man started applying more pressure to Das hand to test his strength.
Even though Das felt the strong grip of the middle-aged man, he did not feel too much pressure on his hand. The dealer's expression was constantly changing as he applied more pressure. But Das felt only a tight grip sensation around his hand. What Das doesn't know is that his body has already experienced a great change because of the Aries spirit.
"Can you stop squeezing my hand?" Das said with an impatient expression, as he thought the dealer was gripping his hand because of the liquor effect. This time it was Dealer's turn to get shocked by Das casual behaviour.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." The dealer took his hand back with a quick apology.
"Is there anything else you'd like to say...?" Das asked with a straight face. Instead of replying, the middle-aged man took out a gold coin with an inverted triangle symbol from his pocket and handed it to Das.
"With this coin, you can access any place that belongs to my Zebra organisation. Please accept it." Das took the coin without asking any questions. Das observed the gold coin carefully, as it was not the same coin he saw in Ria's hands. The gold coin in Das's hands has a bright red outline along the margins of an inverted triangle.
"Das, On the first Sunday of the next month, the Zebra organisation is conducting a large auction at the capital city, in collaboration with several other secret agencies in Asia."
"During that time, several rare and mysterious items will be auctioned. I suggest you to visit that place." The middle-aged man said it with a wide grin on his drunken face. Das nodded his head in the form of approval.
After saying the final good-bye, Das came out of the Range Rover while holding the hands of the dumb girl. After checking the clock on his mobile screen, he walked towards his Benz.
"Darling, why did you let that young man walk away? ... "The girl in the red dress immediately asked the middle-aged man, who is staring dazedly into an empty space.
"Hmmhh... do you think that young man is a soft target? He is definitely hiding his true identity." The middle aged man said it as he was still thinking deeply about something.
"You are thinking too much. He is just a smelly brat who is bluffing like a powerful being." The lady replied while passing the liquor glass to the middle-aged man.
"Little girl, even if I explain the whole thing, you won't understand the actual situation. I'm just a small dealer who is working for a criminal organisation. If I make a single mistake because of my greed, my life will end in the next second. So, I can't take the risk of offending that young man, and more than that, the boy is stronger than me." The dealer gulped down a large amount of liquor after speaking about the actual situation.
By the time Das reached his Benz car, Ria was still patiently waiting for him.
"Why are you still here? I thought you were left with your sisters." Das asked with a questioning look. Instead of replying to his question, Ria asked about the meeting with the dealer.
"Did you meet the dealer? What did he say?" There is a curious expression on her face.
"Nothing... He just gave me this coin." Das passed a gold coin into Ria's hands.
"Das, this coin is a VIP access token for private individuals. Why did he give this coin to you?" Ria asked with a confused face while she was looking at the red line around the inverted triangle in the gold coin.
"How would I know? Go and ask him." Das said it with a playful smile.
"Whatever, at least you can get a ten percent discount in the auctions conducted by the Zebra organisation." Ria commented while passing the coin back to Das.
Later, Ria left for the business work, and Das started his journey towards his villa, along with the dumb girl who sat silently beside the driver seat. Das did not understand how to communicate with the dumb girl and he did not see any expression on her stoic face from the beginning of the auction to until now.
"If you can't talk, at least make some gestures."
"You don't need to worry... I won't do anything against your will." Das said while driving away from the port area. The mute girl, who always had a stoic face, scratched her hand, gesturing for Das to pass the mobile in his pocket.
Even though Das was surprised by her unexpected gesture, But after thinking for a bit, Das passed his mobile phone into her hands. She directly typed something and turned the screen towards Das.
"Don't act like a kind person... I know what you are going to do with me," the dumb girl typed a long sentence. Das got dumbfounded after reading that sentence on the mobile screen.
He never expected that the dumb could communicate this way, and more than that, he could feel her emotions from those sarcastic words. After laughing for a bit, Das replied to her question.
"Little lady, don't overthink. I'm not going to do anything inappropriate. I brought you in for a different reason. So, as I said, don't worry about anything. I won't do anything against your will." Das spoke in a promising tone. novε-lb.In
"I'm thirsty."
The girl showed the text to Das, who was curiously watching her face. Das stopped his car beside a store and brought a water bottle and a few snacks for her. As the girl was busily munching on the snacks, Das directly took the car to the villa in the film city area.
Das is still thinking about what to do with this dumb girl. He bought her from the auction out of curiosity.
"Thank God, even though the girl can't talk, at least she knows how to read and write." Das thought while parking the car in the garage.
