The First One Chapter Nineteen
The water was bright, you could drop a pin in it and still find it. The brightness of the moon illuminated the beauty of the water. Nature was the most beautiful thing on earth. He had both his legs dipped inside the water. The water was constantly warm throughout the year. Muhammad was sitting at the edge of the Wikki spring at Yankari Game Reserve. The time was 1:30am and the place was just the way he loved it, quiet and deserted. This was the third time in the course of his life that he was visiting the Yankari Game Reserve in Bauchi State. He always visited the Wikki spring at odd hours because he needed privacy and the only company he craved was that of nature. He had been hospitalized for seven weeks. He spent the first four weeks unconscious at the hospital. Prior to the case of The First One he had never been shot or hospitalized in his whole life but during the case, he had been hospitalized twice within a month.

When Muhammad walked into the reception hall of the hospital, the nurse behind the counter was terrified when she spotted his shotgun. Muhammad showed the nurse his ID card and she directed him to Room 1212 where Maryam was recuperating on the 12th floor of the building. Muhammad boarded one of the elevators in the reception hall.When Muhammad arrived at the 12th floor, he searched for Room 1212 in the long corridor which had blinding lights. The nurse at the counter had told him Room 1212 was the last room on the left wing of the floor. When Muhammad got to Room 1210, he noticed that the rest of the corridor leading to the remaining rooms at the left wing was dark.Muhammad slowly approached the dark end of the corridor with his shotgun aimed ahead as he searched the walls for light switches that he never found.Muhammad brought out his cell phone and switched on its flashlight.

The Air Force was patrolling the sky and ambulances were all over the national assembly.The First One smiled. Before tonight, the fools might have bet their lives that the national assembly was a fortress. The fact remains no security system was impenetrable.Planting the bomb inside the national assembly had been a child’s play. Words and diplomacy could get you what money couldn’t buy. It was just a matter of how good you were in the art of using them as a weapon.It was now 8:53pm. Any moment the final piece of puzzle will be completed with the arrival of Officer Muhammad. Intuition was his indispensable weapon and his intuition tell him Officer Muhammad was smart enough to smell the real deal and separate

The explosion brought him back to reality. He was already half asleep when the sound interrupted the peace of the night. It was the sound of a bomb explosion.Muhammad heard footsteps heading towards his front door. He brought out his pistol with adrenaline already at work. He left the bedroom and within some seconds he was standing beside the front door with his pistol ready to unleash hell.Muhammad heard someone pounding on the door and calling out to him. Muhammad recognized the voice; it was the officer in charge of his surveillance team. He concealed his weapon and opened the door. The officer was already speaking before the door was completely open.“Sir, the National Assembly had just been hit by a bomb explosion. All field officers had been ordered to report to the site of the explosion ASAP. I just wanted to let you know that we’ll be gone for some few hours,” the officer said breathlessly.“Good luck officer,” Muhammad replied.“In case anything goes wrong or i

Forty minutes later, they were both sitting opposite each other at a restaurant called Prestige Restaurant. It was one of the best restaurants in Abuja which offered assorted delicacies. They placed their orders.“I checked on Maryam yesterday at the ICU and her injuries are healing fast. We are praying she pulls out of the coma soon because coma ias one part of medicine that is unpredictable,” Nicole said.“I hope she pulls through for her sake and for the sake of catching the monster who murdered her friends. She is currently the only lead we’ve on the case,” Muhammad replied.“Can I meet the woman behind the beautiful face and bloody scalpel?” Muhammad asked.“I guess that won’t be a problem,” Nicole replied smiling.Their dinner arrived and they talked as they ate.Muhammad learnt that Nicole’s father was a retired English doctor who lives in the United Kingdom (UK). She lost her mother who was a Nigerian to cancer when she was 18 years old. Muhammad revealed that he

Muhammad opened the door to two beautiful blue eyes. Nicole Bradford was staring at him with a smile on her face. “Hello,” Nicole said.“Hi,” Muhammad replied mesmerized by her presence.Muhammad could feel his heartbeat accelerating and he felt disgusted with himself.“Please come in,” Muhammad said ushering her in.“Thank you Officer Muhammad,” Nicole replied stepping into the sitting room before she asked: “I hope I’m not interrupting anything?”“No. I’m startled because I wasn’t expecting a pretty CME at my doorsteps. I hate the idea of going through an autopsy alive,” Muhammad joked and they both laughed.“Pleas have a seat,” Muhammad said.Nicole sat down on the couch and Muhammad took his seat on the couch opposite her. She was wearing a jasmine perfume and putting on a white suit with a knee length skirt and a black shoe that perfectly fitted her caramel complexion. Nicole’s suit was unbuttoned revealing a blue silk blouse which provided a good view of the shap
