Chapter 6 - CHAPTER SIX

It's the examination day in Greater Heights, and SHOCADEM's accomplice for the mission in Chris class are ready and positioned, the two of them are named Shina and Mujib.

Gbogan! Gbogan!! Gbogan!!! The time keeper rung the bell for examination, and immediately cries of "Yeeeh!" rented the air which came from unprepared student or student who have phobia for exams.

"The time keeper has rung the bell, let's move quickly to the class," Chris said as they ran.

"What is it?" Chris asked also panting.

"I want to buy chewing gums," Beloved said as he went in to the kiosk right before them.

"Why do you love chewing gums?" James asked.

"Nothing, I just love them, don't you do," Beloved said.

As they were going to the class, Beloved accidentally stepped on Mujib, and as he was about to apologize, Mujib began to rain curses on him, cursing him till he was satisfied and Beloved left him without uttering a word and went into the class.

Chris is busy writing furiously, because he knew everything, he was engrossed in the writing that he did not know when Shina and Mujib threw some papers to him. Beloved saw this and said, "This stupid Mujib want to ask something from Chris. No, I will not allow that. But what do I do?" Beloved thought.

Suddenly, an idea came and he acted upon it, he removed the chewing gums in his mouth and divided it into two, then he plastered them on his shoes and went to submit his script. Since he was through, and when he was going out he stepped on the papers, the papers glued to his shoes and he went out with the papers beneath his shoes.

When Beloved got out and removed the papers and found out that answers were written in it, Beloved was perplexed thinking that Chris was asking for answers.

Amidst his confusion, Chris came out.

"How was the examination?" Chris asked.

"Splendid," Beloved replied.

"Did you ask questions from Shina and Mujib?" Beloved asked.

"No, I did not and why did you ask?" Chris said.

I found these papers beside your locker, answers were on them. They were thrown by Shina and Mujib. Beloved answered.

"Well! Maybe it was not intended for me," Chris answered.

(SHOCADEM'S JUNGLE)

"You said what?" cubana barked at Shina and Mujib.

The plan failed! Mujib replied breathlessly

"How?" Alagbe asked.

A boy in our class named Beloved accidentally stepped on the paper and it glued to his shoes. Shina said

Aaaaaaah!!! Shonekan exclaimed and continued, "Did you put glue to the paper? Or how could a neutral paper glue to another person's shoe? Desola asked.

Enough of all these! Cubana screamed and continued, thank God that our master planner- Shonekan had three plans, so master Shonekan,what's plan B? Cubana asked.

The plan B is a case of a theft scandal,we would look for a reasonable amount of money and smuggle it into his bag then either Shina or Mujib will claim to be looking for money and the other will claim seeing Chris taking the money then his bag would be ransacked then you know what will happen next. Shonekan said.

A standing ovation for the master planner. Cubana declared and looked straight into Shing and Mayiko face and said Boys, do the work perfectly and no traces, I repeat I don't want any traces. Cubana said

S-H-O-C-A-D-E-M. Cubana screamed.

Revenge is ours. The other members replied

(THE NEXT DAY)

Chris and his friends were playing after reading and as they were playing, Chris' bag got hooked up with a branch on a nail and his bag tore.

Jesus! Chris exclaimed. My bag is torn. He said with deep sadness.

If you are carrying it around, it may tear the more, maybe you should go and drop it in the class. James advised.

Okay, Chris said as he turned to go and within a jiffy, he was back, but a little bit sad about his torn bag.

Back in the class Shina and Mujib had done what they were asked to do with Cubana and Shonekan watching them.

After the examination, being the first to finish up with his work, he was strolling around the school premises when the money for that was intended to implicate Chris fell down through the torn space in his bag. When Chris got back to the class, he met it in disarray due to the fact that Shina was looking for Five thousand naira (#5,000) which was meant for his textbook.

The whole class searched the nook and crannies of the class but they did not find anything like money

When Chris entered, all eyes were on him because Mujib said he saw Chris take the money.

Me! Who said that? Chris barked.

It's Mujib. another voice answered. Mujib, you don't mean it, I didn't take the money. Chris ranted. Then you must be crazy, if not that you are crazy, where and when did you see me steal the money or what sort of imbroglio is this. Chris said.

You want to insult me with big gram... You irk me the way you speak and I feel like crushing you into powder. Chris barked clenching his fists.

Just in time, a teacher came in, and said. What's all the noise about? Mr. Adegbola screamed hitting the long brown cane in his hand on a table in front of him.

Immediately, the once noisy class became silent as a graveyard.

What's the noise all about? Mr. Adegbola asked.

It's Chris-Mujib-money. The class murmured

I don't want Chorus answer what happened? Mr. Adegbola said.

A boy named Teniola raised up his hand and the teacher signified to him to start talking. Shina was looking for five thousand naira which was intended for his textbooks and we've been searching, then Mujib said Chris took the money, that's all sir. Teniola said

The case is clear, Chris bring your bag. Mr. Adegbola said and immediately Chris gave it to him.

Though I trust Chris that he cannot be the one, but I will still check it. Mr. Adegbola ransacked Chris bag and he only found five hundred naira and asked who owns this? It's mine. Chris replied.
