Book Free Demo Tilloo had underestimated the security arrangements. Invisible mechanical devices had already detected and photographed the small intruder, sent his picture to the Central Bureau where it was thoroughly checked... And before he had advanced ten paces a strong hand fell heavily on his shoulder. Gently but firmly he was escorted by the security staff back home to an anxious and angry mother. While he was being scolded he received help from an unexpected quarter.
“Let me explain to him, darling!” said his father who had just got up. “If he is properly briefed, he will not do such a thing again.” He started to explain.
Explanation:
When Tilloo had taken his father’s security card without his knowledge, he didn’t think getting to the underground passage would be difficult. Tilloo, on the other hand, had misjudged the security mechanism. He was unaware of the fact that the hidden cameras were noticing him. As he was a young boy, he had no idea how the technology worked, and he believed that seeing the sun and stars would be more accessible.
However, the undetectable mechanical devices had recognised Tilloo’s entry in the underground passage and had submitted his photos to the Central Bureau. It meant that when he used his security card to unlock the metallic door, some hidden cameras had noticed that an intruder had entered the premises. The invisible mechanical devices had identified his presence and sent his photos to the Central Bureau. Meanwhile, before Tilloo walked ten steps forward, he felt a strong hand on his shoulder. It was none other than security staff. The security staff arrived at the underground passage after getting the information from the Central Bureau. Later he stopped Tilloo before he could move on.
Then the security staff took him gently to Tilloo's house. It meant he didn't scold the boy for approaching the forbidden route. On the other hand, he kept a firm grip on him, refusing to let him run away or escape. Later, the security staff left Tilloo at his house. Tilloo’s mother, on the other hand, looked quite worried and angry. His mother felt anxious because he had gone there unaware of the risks he would encounter on the planet's surface.

On the other hand, Tilloo's mother was angry because she had cautioned him many times not to go that way. Because it was a spot where a few selected people were allowed, and his father was one among them. Later, the enraged mother began scolding the poor boy. While Tilloo was being scolded, someone unexpectedly came for his assistance. It was none other than his father, and he had got up from his sleep.
Later Tilloo’s father told his wife that he would explain to Tilloo about the restricted path. The reason behind his statement was that his wife had warned him several times, but he never paid attention, so his father thought of explaining to him what would happen if he reached the underground passage. His father believed that if he thoroughly explained the dangers in the path, he would not make the same mistake again.
