NUMEN OF WEALTH

END OF THE ENGINEER

It's been four years and there is still no headway as to the whereabout of The Engineer and Justin. Justin's wife has almost giving up on seeing her husband ever again. Every time he goes to the police for any updates all she gets is still same old story. She loves Justin and the thought of moving on, knowing fully well that there is still a chance of him been alive is unthinkable. 

There was a total overhaul of Agents both in the police department and beyond. And their primary assignment is to find The Engineer, save Justin from whatever trouble he is experiencing and most importantly apprehending the most dangerous drug lord (THE MAFIA). Whose identity is still unknown till this day.

A new Agent Franco was assigned to bring all these bad guys to book. He is a no nonsense man and everyone that works with him must make sure they keep their feet on the ground. He was given an ultimatum to find these bad guys else he will be demoted.

The search for The Engineer, Justin and the Mafia intensified and there is no end in sight when all of these will be over. Posters of The Engineer everywhere including Justin and a bounty was to be awarded to whoever has a lead on how to find them.

Engineer Farouq who is also known as The Engineer has been in hiding since he took Justin hostage and more so considering the cartel fabricated a story to declare him missing, so as for them not to be exposed, he thread carefully. He only talks to his trusted employees at the warehouse where Justin was initially held hostage. 

One Friday morning he went out to get some snack's for himself and family. He dressed differently wearing suit. It was very difficult to recognize The Engineer because he now looks like someone who works in a bank. He called one of his men to help with security. He told him. "Once you suspect anything, contact me immediately and use the code word JURY." I totally understand he replied. Few minutes after he entered the supermarket. An anonymous tip gave the information to the police on The Engineer's whereabout. 

It was his trusted employee who betrayed him and gave him away. Prior to that his employee of his has been looking for ways to take over the business from The Engineer because he felt betrayed during his early days working for his boss. He had some financial issues and had no where to turn too. He begged for help from The Engineer because his mother was dying and the hospital requested that a deposit of $10,000 must be made before any treatment will Commence. Joal who is The Engineer's most trusted employee never forgot how he maltreated him. He even when as far as torturing him. "Do you think money grows on trees?" The Engineer said to Joal. You just started work and you are requesting for ten thousand dollars. How convenient? He asked. He was stabbed and even deprived from eating for two days. Joal's mother was the reason he went to work for the cartel in the first place. Due to their non compliance to the demands of the hospital, no treatment was giving to his mother and as a result she eventually died. On hearing this, Joal came up with a plan and decided to do whatever it takes to gain his trust. He was tested on several occasions and he passed. It came to a point where The Engineer told him that "you are my most trusted employee."

Joal was looking for a perfect timing to avenge his mother's death. He said to himself 'the reason behind my coming to work here is now pointless. I came here to save my mother's life and now she's dead. The warehouse you think you own, I will bring you down and take over this place and most importantly avenge my mother's death.'

It was Joal who relocated Justin from the warehouse where he was initially held hostage. All these time he seized communication with Justin and told The Engineer everything is fine. That Justin is in a save place. The Engineer don't even know where Justin is afterwards. He trusted Joal with his life and thought everything is in control under his watch.

The Mafia has never met Joal. In fact The Engineer made him his most valuable asset and hide his identity under their very nose. 

The Engineer was arrested by the police and was been interrogated to find the remainder of the gangs. Agent Franco was in charge of this case and did all he could to dismantle the Mafia's cartel, but all efforts proof abortive because like the Mafia always say, "I'm the greatest of all time in the drug world." He is always two steps ahead. All information reaches him first before they could get to him. The Mafia still has people on the inside and he used one of the agents to get what he wants. He knew if he does not get rid of The Engineer, it won't be long until everything he has been trying to protect for years will come to light and he well knows the consequences.

The Mafia has a surgeon that can create a liquid which when mixed with the ink of a pen, whoever reads what was written with than pen without wearing a protective glass dies. He knew The Engineer is now a liability and eliminating him is the only way to keep his identity a secret. 

The surgeon did as he was told, wrote the letter as ordered by the Mafia. The Mafia called his informant to come collect the letter and make sure the only eyes that sees it is The Engineer. On that fateful day, The Engineer was about to be transported and transferred to the FBI's custody. All papers works were almost done. But before he was transferred the Mafia got to him first using his informant to deceive him into reading the letter by making empty promises about getting him out of here. That's how he read the letter and immediately he slumped and died.
