Rashid was often away on business. He kept his word and did not declare Arthur, the new investigator asked to name the make and number of the car. But Rashid gave only the color and brand, he did not call the number, referring to the fact that he did not remember it. He did not see who was sitting in the car either and it all got hushed up. The police were more preoccupied with killing police officers than wounding Arthur, and they did not bother Rashid anymore and waited for Amir to recover. The new investigator was not so interested in the case of Arthur’s capture, and conducted this case passively. Arthur was lucky that the previous investigator kept many details secret so as not to harm the Sultan, and these details were taken with him to the grave. Everything was in Arthur’s favor, Rashid and Lily’s parents did not testify against him, Ahmed withdrew his statement. Arthur got away with it again. Amir remained in a coma and this was the main cause of concern for Rashid and Arthur. Rashid was worried about his son’s life; he was more concerned about the threat posed by Arthur than his condition. Arthur prayed that this palmist would not survive. He took out evil on Jamal.
