⭐Chapter 7:One Police Station, One Secret, One Sacrifice**

The cyber section of the Visakhapatnam Police Headquarters was unusually quiet that day.

Too quiet.

A silence that did not mean peace—

but something waiting to explode.

Sunidhi Sharma's younger sister finally spoke, her voice trembling yet clear.

"Ma'am… can drugs be trafficked inside a living human body?

And if yes… how much?"

SP Priya Singh Rajputana froze.

For a brief second, the world around her seemed to stop breathing.

Her eyes did not show shock.

They reflected realization.

She closed the file slowly and stood up.

Whatever this case was—

it could no longer wait.

Police Station – Cyber Desk

A constable stood nearby, holding a laptop, visibly nervous.

"Ma'am… the cyber expert is on leave. It might take some time—"

"Time?"

Priya's voice was sharp, controlled, dangerous.

"Does anything in this system ever work on time without excuses?"

She took the laptop from his hands and opened it herself.

Her fingers moved across the keyboard with practiced confidence—as if the machine was not a tool, but a weapon she had mastered long ago.

Within minutes, the screen unlocked.

Karishma Singh stared at her in disbelief.

"Sir… you're just as fast at this too."

A voice echoed from outside—

"That's why she's called

the department's most powerful weapon."

DIG Atul Deshmukh Arrives

DIG Atul Deshmukh entered the room.

Everyone stood to attention.

"Jai Hind, officers.

I need to speak to Miss Rajputana. Alone."

The room emptied.

The door closed.

Inside, there were only two people—

and a truth capable of shaking the nation.

Conference Room

Case photos covered the walls.

Files lay scattered across the table.

Priya spoke first.

"Sir… Sunidhi Sharma wasn't just an honest inspector.

She had discovered something. Something big."

The DIG didn't deny it.

"She was getting close to a secret that, if exposed, could pose a serious threat to national security."

Priya's voice lowered.

"So this wasn't personal revenge.

This was a planned silence."

The DIG met her gaze.

"This is no longer just a murder case, Priya.

It's a mission."

A pause.

"And you will lead it."

Something ignited in Priya's eyes.

Not fear.

War.

Elsewhere — When Bonds Respond

Abhay's phone buzzed.

It was Siya.

"Jiju… Didi is deeply involved in a case.

A woman police inspector was brutally murdered here."

Abhay went silent.

"She didn't tell me."

"Maybe she didn't want you worried."

After a moment—

"I'm coming to Visakhapatnam tomorrow.

Shaurya too. Kartik will follow."

Because they all knew—

when Priya fought alone,

the cost was always heavy.

Three Rooms, One Decision

Shaurya packed his bag, pausing at an old photograph—

himself, Abhay, and Priya.

Bhabhi… I'm coming. Things can't stay the same anymore.

In another city, Kartik sketched Priya in uniform.

Under it, he wrote:

My Bhabhi.

"Just two more days," he whispered.

"You're not alone."

Rajputana Mansion — Ramgarh

Everything appeared normal.

Morning prayers.

Newspapers.

Tea.

Yet somewhere,

destiny had already begun to move its pieces.

Back at the Police Station — The Door Opens

Priya stared at the laptop screen.

An encrypted folder blinked open.

OPERATION BLACK SHADOW

Transfer records.

Smuggling routes.

And a suspicious, incomplete video file.

Her chest tightened.

"So this is why…

she had to die."

Her voice hardened.

"This is no longer just a case.

It's a question of justice."

Final Scene

At home, the guest wing was being prepared.

Soft laughter filled the air.

A sense of warmth returned—briefly.

But—

A close shot of Priya's face.

Eyes alert.

Mind on the battlefield.

Heart restless.

As if she could already sense—

that before justice is served,

someone always has to pay the price.
