After typing "Boltzmann Brain" Alex pressed
the enter button. The mini laptop opened up. Shringar started, "The Boltzmann Brain was a thought experiment done by Ludwig Boltzmann which suggests that it might be more likely for a single brain to spontaneously form in space, complete with a memory of having existed in our universe, rather than for the entire universe to come
into existence in the manner cosmologists think it actually did." Alex started
checking the laptop's data and Shringar explained, "Alex, you do not have to
worry. When you were unconscious, we called Officer Prakash and asked him to
send backup to stop all the people from leaving the premise even the staffs.
Only we are outside to check for any suspicious actions here. Now it is a
different issue that we are here in the danger and because of that Officer Prakash is angry. But at any rate, you can safely assume that you are still inside "Mantra Junction Villa". We are all investigating where you might be and who were those Synthesized-Demons." Alex mentioned about the place he was in looked like a storage room. Despite of being and extrovert, Sanskar was mostly silent
in this entire time. He was getting triggers in this time of crisis. The day of his father's death was flashing in front of his eyes many times. "Swara" was ringing in his ears. Even Shringar could feel a strange connection to "Swara" today. As if she and "Swara" are not different, but one. Mrs. Konar talked in
utter shock, "Shringar! Sanskar! Look". She pointed out of the car. Suddenly a
black car parked in front of their car. Sanskar recognized the car right away.
It was the same car from Elina's disturbing sketches which depicted Shringar's
kidnapping and his severe injury. Two people came out of the car. The three of
them recognized one of them to be Dr. Nitish. The other one was Andrew. Both of
them started walking towards the back of the building. Shringar tried to stay
calm and asked Alex, "Tell me about the room in details." Alex said, "My work
with the mini-laptop is done. Let's see. There is a huge mosaic glass window,
But I am not sure how I can break it." Shringar asked, "Is their anything hard
or solid enough break the window?" Alex
said, "There are many things in here. But personally I think the best suited object
to throw out is this strong mini-laptop itself." Shringar uttered, "But…." She could not even complete her statement and heard a loud glass breaking sound from his side which was without a doubt produced by the mini-laptop only. Both Shringar and Sanskar got out of the car and asked Mrs. Konar to further talk to him. Sanskar looked around the building to check which window broke and Shringar went inside. She found Officer Prakash asked him to stop Dr. Nitish and the man he came with, she also mentioned that
they went to the back of the building. Officer Prakash proceeded and Shringar
asked the receptionist, "Ma'am do you know about a store room here with a huge window?"
Despite of her knowing that the description was not enough she still persisted.
The receptionist asked a colleague of her about it and she said, "Well, there
is no storeroom here but there is store house behind this building. With a huge
window made of mosaic." Without wasting any more time Shringar ran off to it.
Officer Prakash sent her the pictures of the surveillance footage of the event
and told her that the entire footage got deleted by the terrorist organization.
Except for some images which the police could capture. Due to the rush of
police Leo and Andrew could not enter the storehouse. Leo said, "We successfully created a tensed situation, now slowly the society will question the police. We got our hands on the child as well, which the police is not aware of yet. Soon we will get the hacker too. But why is the police so
desperate all of a sudden? As if they knew about it…" Before getting in, Shringar noticed Sanskar and Alex were standing outside of the storehouse in an isolated location where the police has not cover up yet. A woman with a gun approached them. She was none other than Miss. Fiza Nishabti, one of today's
celebrity guest who is famous for her dystopic art. Sanskar said, "So you are
FZ?" She smiled and pointed her gun towards him. Before she could do something,
Sanskar's phone rang and the police got alert. The phone call was from Shringar
who was nearby. After picking the call she asked him to put the phone on
speaker. "Does the VeilTus members find the Indian police incompetent?" a bold
deep voice of a teenager came from the other side of the phone and Fiza was
calm. She continued, "The police do have a clear idea that you are FZ. Due to
your frequent change of locations inside the hall." Minor squints could be seen
in FZ's eyes all of a sudden. Shringar continued, "The police were not able to
get their hands on the whole surveillance footage, specially after the light
flickering incident. Kudos to the terrorists for such performance but a few
footages before that were intact where you frequently changed positions until you
stood exactly behind Alex. And as witnesses, I and Sanskar do know the fact
that Alex went missing right after that. So you are busted. You are a famous
public figure, so you can not hide for longer." Before FZ could do anything,
the police came and aimed their guns at her. She started with a dramatic
laughter, "What will you do inspector? I have these two as hostages." Shringar
laughed and said, "Haven't you realize yet? VeilTus abandoned you and that is
why that special footage of yours are in our hands now. Why else would they be
careless, specially when they have been successfully secretive all these years."
Suddenly FZ's eyes widened and she
opened her mouth widely to shout on Shringar and prove her wrong, but could not
speak a single word. Sanskar spoke, "If you survive now then also you won't
survive in the hands of VeilTus." FZ was about to lower her gun. The police did
not expect it to be this easy. Suddenly someone shot her on her head using silencer.
It happened so suddenly that nobody could react. It was none other than Andrew
who was in a the building next "Mantra Junction Villa". Which is a hotel called
"Mantra". Both Leo and Andrew went behind the building earlier to fix a transmitter
to follow up with FZ's plan. Leo did ask about Alex's location before coming to
the "Mantra Junction Villa" and FZ informed them without hesitation. Due to
that information, they knew that they only had to fix it near the window and
then they went to the hotel from the back gate. Leo's plan was to get their
hands on Alex and dispose off FZ. But the police got her and there is no return
for her anymore, that is why they instantly came up with "Plan B", which is to
dispose her right now. The police called for ambulance, Alex checked her pulses
and realized that she passed over to the other side. Officer Prakash reached
"Hotel Mantra" to check the room from where they shot FZ. According to the receptionist an excessively tall woman and her husband of similar height came for room
booking. Mrs. Ragini Tandon and Mr. Rohan Tandon. The room was empty, only the
window was open which clarified that the shooter accomplished his mission in
that room only. Ragini's contact information was fake, credit card's owner turned
out to be a private college's professor who seemed confused about his recent
transaction history. He himself called the police for help. Alex ran off to not get exposed as a hacker again. Sanskar explained everything to the police. To save Alex, they prepared the premise differently. "We got invitation card from Dr. Janki and when we were inside, the light flickered and Alex got captured by FZ." Sanskar told and
left the reason for the kidnapping to the Police's imagination.
On that night the task force held a meeting
to sum up all the information and failures together to understand the issue and
move forward. DSP. Rathod wanted a full length explanation to catch up with the
whole scenario. Officer Rani said, "A lot of things happened today. And the
main reason for all the failures was
lack of unity. And the only person to be blamed is Officer Prakash." Hearing
that made Asst. Insp. Puja a bit angry
but she did not speak a word. DSP. Rathod wanted an explanation of the whole
case due to all the ruckus and messes in the past few days. The case was slow
and almost nothing significant came up until Raghuvendra Sinha got caught and
suddenly the case became drastically fast. Officer Rani got up and stated in a
sarcastic tone, "There is no explanation sir. This great man only wanted to
play hero for ones." Officer Prakash also got up and angrily said while trying
to keep a calm tone, "You are already a hero, let us have the honors now." Rathod
shrieked, "Hove you two gone mad!? We are having an important meeting and you
two are arguing like little children? OFFICER PRAKASH EXPLAIN THE SITUATION
RIGHT NOW! And Officer Rani… DO I HAVE TO GIVE YOU AN INVITATION TO SIT!?" Officer Rani sat on her chair and Officer Prakash stood besides the white board with a marker to explain. Chief Varnika came up with her injuries. Asst. Insp. Chanakya got up and said, "Chief, you do not have to join us today. Please take rest. We can handle it and report to you later." Chief Varnika smiled and spoke up, "Do not worry Chanakya. I am absolutely fine. I want to listen. Please
start." Officer Prakash nodded and begun, "Thus far we found a lot of clues to
move forward. We were nowhere a few months back but now we do. Firstly the case
started to get on the right path when we got our hands on Raghuvendra Sinha. He
was the first person to expose the name of the terrorist organization "VeilTus"
and we got to know about "Synthesized-demons" and "Blessed Children" as well.
Later on we were able to reveal the meaning of "Blessed Children" and today we
saw on live what "Synthesized-Demons" are actually. After investigation including Dr. Vanessa's help in this case we got to know that all the members of VeilTus were
brainwashed, it was also easy for them since their past are really tragic for
example, Ritu Sanayal's health disease and her killing her only daughter for
the betterment of the future instilled by VeilTus in her head. Thanks to the kids
and their discussion's recording, we got to know about the connections of past
few cases to this case (Rashmika Sen and Shringar's family murder case). "Laksh
Adhikari" and "Swara Adhikari" who were also Sanskar's parents, Chief Varnika's
husband "Mr. Rahul Ravindran", "Isha Roy" who was Lalith's sister and Mr.
Ravindran's student deaths were connected to this organization and these deaths
happened due to their desire of getting a hold on "Swara" the "Enigma". With
all our findings regarding Ragini Tandon and her whereabouts we can safely say
now that she is nothing more than fiction utilizes by the VeilTus members as
camouflage. Aditya and Hawa found a clue regarding Ragini Tandon's real social
media handler and that are some locations, "Grave Creek Mound", "Old Burying
Point", "Bakersfield National Cemetery", etc. The locations are changing
steadily, but these are all in American graveyards. This is a new information
which we need to take note on. There is a hacker code name "Turner" is
certainly interested in this case. He sent us this crucial list of VeilTus data
and he might do even more thanking in the future for this case. That list is
the only reason could save most of the day except two things. Firstly, Preity
Rao a six years old kid got kidnapped. She is the daughter of Tiles Company's
owner. Secondly their were casualties today including FZ. Today we were not
able to arrest Shaurya, but we saved the children and their parents in the park
successfully. I apologize for that." DSP. Rathod said, "We tried. This is not
fully your fault. We will have to be answerable to media. This is our failure.
We need to find Preity as least." Everyone nodded. Officer Prakash continued, "Dr.
Ravi Raj Roy told us that Elina who is Dorothy's best friend recently activated
her ESP. She has pre-cognition ability in which she draws through dreams and
Shringar told me that Gaurav, Isha and Lalith's best friend activated his
Teleportation ability. So we have sent spies behind them to keep note that they
are safe and nobody comes to harm or kidnap them. Also our Prime suspect Dr.
Nitish is an imposter." Hearing that made Rani roar, "WHAT PROOF DO YOU HAVE ON
THAT!?" Officer Prakash asked her to calm down and continued, "There is no
doubt anymore. I want everyone to look at the my and Shringar's chat history
from Yesterday evening, which I am displaying on the screen now." He displayed
the parts where she mentioned about Sophie and her mother's words on Dr.
Nitish's doppelganger." Chief Varnika said, "We need to go to their home for
house search then. We need to call them for interrogation as well." Everyone
agreed. Officer Prakash smiled and said, "Before I want to call someone
important for a peaceful interrogation." Everyone looked curious and he
continued, "The mysterious caller, "Dorothy". She called me told me that she
wants to talk. I have sent the constables to bring her safely.
On the next morning Shringar woke up somehow.
She could not sleep peacefully last night due to the incident of yesterday and
sleeping in a new place was difficult for her. She was sleeping at Dorothy's guestroom
which was comforting but unfamiliar. Dr. Nitish allowed her to stay their. He added
hat he was very busy so she would anyway cause hindrance to him. She got up and
had breakfast left by Dorothy for her. Her mother sat in front of Shringar and
said, "Last night Dorothy went to the task force. After coming back home, she
did not say anything regarding her interrogation." Shringar was surprised. Even
she did not have the idea about her going to the task force at night. She
checked her phone and their was only one message from Sanskar where he
requested her to meet him at the park near Dorothy's house. Shringar walked
through the streets wondering what Sanskar's been thinking recently. His
psychology was difficult for her to comprehend. She reached the park and saw
Sanskar entering after her. "Good morning." She said and Sanskar shyly smiled
and greeted, "Good morning, I am sorry to be late today." Shringar smiled and
said, "I also came here just now." They both shared a smile to each other and
Sanskar stated his request to Shringar to come with him to meet his uncle and
aunty. She could not understand the reason and he explained, "Yesterday's band
exchange made me feel familiar also you are smart and I was feeling a strange
connection to "Swara", so perhaps if you talk to my family about my past, then
perhaps you can explain stuffs that we do not understand right now." Shringar
agreed without hesitation since she felt the same and went with him.
Sanskar rang the bell of his house and his
aunty opened up with a comforting smile on her face. She welcomed Shringar and
Sanskar went to make them two cups of tea and two cups of cocoa for Shringar
and himself. The uncle was already their sitting on his armchair with a smile.
They sat and had a bit of chit chat. Then the aunty started, "Sanskar told the
police about how vivid and nightmarish that night was. He somehow explained it
but then his mind slowly erased those bad memories as well as his past before
that. He remembers everything vaguely now. For a while Laksh was working on his
wife's murder and due to that he was not able to give much time to the eight
years old Sanskar.
[[He was a lonely child. But he had a friend,
who used to understand him a lot. For her, he even started learning sewing,
baking and many more hobbies that he got into. That is when that fateful night
fell like a rain of tragedy. Sanskar went to his father's study room to say
goodnight to him and at that moment his doorbell rang. Laksh went to open the
door, their was a man wearing an ultra-violet colored dress. Laksh asked the
man to sit in the living room. He came back to his study room and asked Sanskar
to stay their and not to move an inch. He agreed but still kept the door a
little open to peek into their conversation. Their was an eerie atmosphere
around them. Laksh was talking calmly with the stranger for a while. "We know
where you found it and how, but who were the others with you and your wife at
that time?" The stranger asked. Laksh smiled and calmly answered, "Well, they
were my friends." The man insisted on knowing but Laksh wittily avoided his
questions. The man was loosing his patience and asked, "Where's the Enigma?" Laksh did not answer. "Where in the world is Enigma? We thought your wife has it
since, it is named after her. But now we know, you gave the name after her.
Where is it Prof. Laksh?" Laksh hastily said, "On safe hands." Then they both
started arguing and the man took out his gun and shot Laksh thrice. Sanskar
tried not to scream but the scene made him jolt and the man noticed him. It was
raining and the thunder storm sent a chill down his spine. The man entered the
study room to kill him but quickly he ran through the window and kept running
until he faint and neighbors found him. He gave this testimony to the police
and reporters, then we were entrusted with the responsibility of his upbringing. Slowly he forgot many things in his life before the whole incident.
But he is very good at sewing. ]] Honestly he is a nice child." Sanskar came
with the two cups of tea and two cups of cocoa. He said, ""Safe hands meant,
Rashmika Sen, at least that is what we found out during our discussion with
Dorothy." Shringar nodded and said, "Yes I agree. Well Sanskar, you forgot
about your childhood friend as well. She must have felt bad." They both smiled
and continued to discuss.
Later that day, Officer Prakash and Officer
Rani was sitting outside of the Prime Minister's office. Chief Varnika was
inside trying to negotiate with the PM. Officer Rani started, "Honestly, after
this we have to answer the media downstairs. Wasting time here and the
terrorists might have already plotted something new by now." Officer Prakash
agreed and said, "If it is Chief Varnika, I am sure she will be able to convince the PM as well as the media. Her public speaking ability and manipulation techniques does send chills down our spines ." Officer Rani agreed with him for the first time. Chief
Varnika came out with peace sign and a faint smile, signaling successful negotiation. Officer Rani whispered, "Guess she blackmailed him with his college life scandals again." Both Rani and Prakash smiled at each other. "Do not worry. I will manage the media." Chief Varnika said and proceeded. After an hour of media questions finally the task force can work together again. They reached the task force where everyone was waiting for them. After giving the news, everyone was happy. After that Chief Varnika spoke up, "On 10th their will be a party at Aurora hall which I will be throwing. I want all of you to come join me. I will also invite other guests of mine in it." Puja started cheerfully yet confused, "Party? Sounds fun. But why though? We haven't achieved anything yet." Chief Varnika smiled and said, "This is not going to be just a funk and joy party. This is going to be a showdown. This is going to be a new beginning. A new development. Something that we have all been waiting for. All the important characters this far will be welcomed here."
