Chapter 6: Hope - Section II. The Indian teenager fled with his sister

After Raj failed to assassinate Rajan, his "divine power" ran out and he fell on the road in the suburbs, passing out. It took more than ten minutes before he woke up. After waking up, he felt very weak in his limbs and had difficulty moving.

This is not the first time Raj has collapsed due to excessive use of "divine power". He had also encountered this situation during his "practice" in the forest before. According to his previous experience, he knew that only by drinking a lot of water would he be able to recover his physical strength more quickly, although he did not know why.

So, dragging his weak body, Raj struggled to find a nearby river. He buried his head in the cold river water, gulped down the water desperately, filled his whole stomach, and then collapsed on the ground exhausted.

After a while, his physical strength really recovered a lot, and he was barely able to move normally.

At this time, Raj is very worried about Kajol's safety, and he is afraid that the angry Rajan will send someone to take revenge on Kajol. So, he immediately retrieved his moped and rushed to the place where Kajol worked to find her. Fortunately, when Raj saw Kajol, everything was alright, and she was filming as usual.

Raj waited until Kajol finished her work, and quietly pulled Kajol aside while everyone present was not paying attention. Seeing Raj looking anxious and bruised, Kajol asked him worriedly what had happened.

Things got to this point, Raj did not dare to hide it from Kajol anymore, so he had to tell Kajol everything that happened before.

Although Kajol was skeptical of the "divine power," she knew that what he said about the assassination attempt was true, or else he would not have been injured in such a way.

Kajol was very angry in her heart and wanted to blame Raj for not listening to her, which caused such a big disaster. However, when the words were on the tip of her tongue, she thought about Raj's actions being also for himself, so she couldn't bring herself to say those words. She sighed and said, "Anyway, we have to hide first. If Rajan finds us, he will definitely torture us in the cruelest way and then kill us."

Raj was not actually afraid of Rajan and his subordinates. He almost succeeded in killing Rajan just now, he just got scared in the end. Moreover, even when he was surrounded by many enemies and subjected to fierce firepower, he still managed to escape. This made him more confident in his " divine power ". Therefore, he felt that he had the ability to defeat Rajan, as long as he didn't hesitate to act next time. However, Kajol's safety made him very worried, and he didn't have the confidence to protect Kajol completely while fighting with Rajan and others. Therefore, he agreed with Kajol's idea of hiding first.

So, the two hurried back home, packed their luggage, and went to the train station. They were going to Bangalore, where Kajol's friend was. Since they arrived at the station quite late, there were no more trains to Bangalore, and they had to wait until the next morning to leave. Therefore, they had to stay in a small hotel near the train station.

After the intense battle just now, Raj's body was exhausted, and he quickly fell asleep when he lay down on the bed. Kajol sat by the bed, gently and carefully bandaging Raj's wounds while he was sleeping.

Raj slept until midnight and was awakened by someone talking. He listened carefully and found that it was Kajol talking on the balcony outside in a low voice. Kajol said into the phone: "Director Rajamuri, I'm sorry to disturb you so late. I'm calling you to tell you that I can't go to your company tomorrow to sign a contract. Because my family suddenly had an accident, I can't take your movie. I'm really sorry... Hmm, I know, this role is really good, it's a rare opportunity for me, but I really have no choice, I have to leave Mumbai for a while... Okay, anyway, I'm really grateful to you for giving me this precious opportunity. May God bless you."

After the call, Kajol put down his phone and let out a long sigh helplessly.

Hearing what Kajol said on the phone, Raj felt very guilty in his heart. He didn't think he had done anything wrong before, until he saw Kajol being implicated by him, not only losing her ideal job but also having to run and hide everywhere, he secretly blamed himself for acting too recklessly. He remembered that Fatima had warned him that Rajan was not easy to deal with, and that he had to make a long-term plan. Unfortunately, he was too self-righteous and didn't listen to her advice. Now he regretted it very much.

Thinking of Fatima, Raj suddenly had a wit and thought, "By the way, I can contact Fatima. Last time she told me I could ask her for help if I needed it. She is a police officer and often fights against Rajan, maybe she can really help us. "

So he immediately got up from the bed and went outside to the balcony to find Kajol.

Kajol was sitting on the sofa on the balcony, looking at the moonlight, lost in thought. She saw Raj walking towards her and asked, "What's wrong? Can't you sleep either?"

Raj said, "Yeah. Can we meet one of my friends before we leave tomorrow?"

Kajol asked curiously, "Friend? Who?"

Raj said, "Do you remember me telling you about the female police officer, Fatima, who I saved from Rajan's gang? I want to ask for her help."

Kajol hesitated and said, "But she's just an ordinary police officer. What can she do for us?"

Raj said, "I don't know. I just feel that having one more helper is always good."

Kajol thought for a moment and said, "Okay. Let her come here tomorrow morning to meet us. It's not safe for us to be out there, we might be discovered."

Raj nodded and said, "Okay, got it. I'll contact her now."

Fatima received Raj's call and knew that he was in danger. Without much hesitation, she readily agreed to help. As soon as daybreak came, she drove her police car to the small hotel where Raj and Kajol were staying.

Raj told Fatima about the assassination on Rajan last night. Fatima was very interested in the whole process of the assassination and asked Raj about every detail of his actions. Raj answered all of her questions truthfully.

After listening to Raj's description, Fatima said to Raj and Kajol, "Actually, you don't necessarily have to run away. You can choose to fight Rajan to the end. According to what Raj just said, as long as we plan carefully, there is a chance to wipe out Rajan and his men."

Kajol shook her head and said firmly, "I don't agree! I can't let Raj take any more risks."

Fatima said, "Kajol, I understand how you feel. But have you ever thought that you are an actress? Your job requires you to appear in various public occasions, which makes it easy for your whereabouts to be exposed. So even if you and Raj escape to another place, Rajan will find you sooner or later."

Kajol said, "No, I don't have to be an actress. I can do other jobs, such as waiters, cleaners, textile workers and so on. Moreover, Raj now has 'divine power'. Even if Rajan finds us, we can escape from him and go to the next place."

Fatima thought for a moment and said, "If you can make this decision, it is indeed a way. Okay, I will try my best to keep an eye on Rajan's gang. Once I find out that they are going to take action against you, I will notify you in time. Rajan's power is only in Mumbai. If you are being chased by Rajan's men in other places and Raj cannot handle it, you can seek help from the local police. I believe they should be able to help you."

Kajol said, "Thank you. Rajan has done many evil things. I hope he will receive due punishment soon, so we can return to Mumbai and continue our lives."

Fatima sighed, "It's a pity that before he receives his punishment, many people will suffer because of him."

Raj said with reluctance to Kajol, "Kajol, please let me try again. I really can't bear to see you give up your favorite career and wander around. I have confidence..."

Suddenly, Raj stopped talking halfway and quickly ran to the balcony outside. Seeing this, Kajol and Fatima looked at each other, not knowing what was happening, and also followed Raj to the balcony. and followed Raj to the balcony.

It turned out that when Raj was speaking just now, he vaguely heard someone chatting near the hotel and mentioning Kajol and his name repeatedly. He felt something was wrong, so he rushed out to check.

He focused and looked downstairs, and saw more than a dozen suspicious cars parked around the hotel. In each car sat three or four fully armed men.

Raj recognized some of these men as Rajan's security guards, indicating that they were all Rajan's subordinates. So he searched through these vehicles repeatedly with his eyes and discovered that Rajan was sitting in the farthest luxury car from the hotel. Rajan was wrapped in bandages, his face was pale and his spirit was weak, talking to a subordinate standing outside the car.

Raj concentrated and further enhanced his hearing ability, trying to eavesdrop on their conversation.

Rajan asked the subordinate, "Are you sure Kajol and her brother are in the hotel?"

The subordinate replied, "Yes. Last night, I followed your orders and sent someone to lurk near their house, and then followed them here. Except for them, the female police officer who opposed us before also came here."

Rajan asked, "Are all our men here?"

The subordinate replied, "Yes, all here. I have called everyone, and they are all gathered here, ready to rush in at any time."

Rajan said, "No, don't rush in yet. Wait until they come out and then take action. That bastard is very capable. If you rush in, you may let them escape. After they come out, you should first find a chance to catch that bitch Kajol, and then use her to threaten that bastard, and he will surrender obediently. Understand?"

The subordinate nodded and said, "Yes, I know what to do." Then he conveyed Rajan's instructions to the other subordinates.

Raj quickly told Kajol and Fatima what he had heard. After a moment of thought, Fatima said, "I'll go get their attention, you try to escape from the hotel rooftop."

Raj shook his head and said, "No, you'll die. Come with us."

Fatima replied, "If we all try to escape together, we'll be easily discovered and none of us will make it out. Besides, I'm a police officer and it's my duty to protect you. And you saved my life last time, I haven't even had the chance to repay you yet. Don't worry about me, just go."

Raj was hesitant to leave, torn between the safety of Kajol and the guilt he would feel if Fatima sacrificed herself for them.

Kajol knew what Raj was thinking and said to Fatima, "Isn't there any other way? Raj won't leave if you don't come with us. He's too kind and would never want others to die for him."

Fatima was deeply touched and couldn't help but hug Raj and said, "You are such a good boy.

I used to be skeptical of what you said about the "divine power" that the gods gave you. But now, I believe it. For they must have been moved by your kind nature.”

She let go of Raj, looked at Raj, then at Kajol, and said to the two siblings: "Well, in that case, then we can only break out together. But it will be much more dangerous for you two. Are you willing to take the risk?"

Raj and Kajol nodded in unison, determined to break through the encirclement of the Rajan gang.

After discussing their plan, they immediately took action. Raj held Kajol in his left arm and Fatima in his right arm, using his "divine power" to propel them from the hotel balcony of the fifth floor. They formed a perfect arc in the air and Raj emitted powerful bursts of energy to cushion their landing. They landed safely right next to Fatima's parked police car, right where they wanted to be.

The thugs of the Rajan gang were too focused on the hotel door and didn't expect them to take such an unusual route. When they realized what had happened, Raj, Kajol, and Fatima were already in the police car and driving away at top speed. They quickly broke through the encirclement and made their way out, but the Rajan gang quickly caught up and blocked their path with cars.

Raj saw that the road ahead was blocked and quickly jumped out of the police car's window onto the outside. He ran towards the cars in front of him with a speed even faster than the police car. He used his "divine power" to push two of the blocking cars with force, causing them to roll back and creating a gap in the blockade.

Fatima drove the police car straight through the gap and successfully broke through the encirclement.

Raj injected "divine power" into his feet, sprinted hard, kept up with the fast-moving police car, and sneaked back into the carriage through the window.

Rajan and his men were stunned by Raj's amazing feats. After several seconds, Rajan shouted angrily, "Damn it! You idiots, go after them!" His men promptly got into their cars and chased after Fatima's police car. Rajan himself followed in his car behind the convoy.

Although Raj and the others managed to break through the blockade, they still couldn't get rid of Rajan's gang. The gang's cars chased the police car closely on the road near the train station, in a fast-paced pursuit.

Because of Fatima's limited driving skills and her concerns about the pedestrians and vehicles on the road, she drove slowly and cautiously, whereas Rajan's gang drove recklessly on the highway, causing the police car to be caught up by them shortly. Two cars surrounded the police car from both sides and the thugs inside fired at the police car.

Raj thought about fighting back outside the car, but he was afraid that Kajol would be hit by stray bullets, so he held onto her and hid under the car's seat. Fatima realized that they were in a dangerous situation and decided to change the route. She stepped on the gas pedal, made a sharp turn, and drove into the slums she was familiar with, intending to use the terrain to escape from Rajan's gang.

The roads in the slums were generally very narrow, only allowing one car to pass through at a time. After the police car entered the slums, the gang's cars couldn't surround the police car anymore, but could only follow behind it. As a result, the attack on Raj and the others was greatly reduced.

Raj saw this as a good opportunity to fight back. He sat up from the seat, turned his body, and leaned on the back seat of the car with his hands reaching out of the shattered rear window. He used his "divine power" to shoot out from his palms at the front of the car following them.

With a loud explosion, the car's engine malfunctioned and it stopped, blocking all the cars behind it. Meanwhile, due to the recoil of his "divine power," Raj lost control and accidentally bumped into Fatima, who was driving the police car, causing her to steer the car into a nearby earth wall, and the car couldn't move anymore.
