Part 10 The Twins

"ASR, your guess is right. The next murder happened on the outskirts of Delhi" Aman said.

Arnav fisted his fingers, closing his eyes.

"But, this time, we got a clue unlike before, ASR..."

"What clue?" Arnav asked curiously.

"As we alerted the tollbooths and the checkposts about the car, the police found the car by tracking it."

"But, I told you it would not have been the killer's car"

"Yes, you are right. It's not the killer's car. We checked it. The RTO officer sent me the owner's details. I called the person. He said his car had been missing for two days. He has an FIR copy too"

Arnav didn't wonder. He knew somewhat this was how it must be.

"Ok, then what clue you guys got?"

"The police found a half-burnt dead body of a girl"

"Is it?"

"Yes, ASR, this is the first evidence we have ever gotten. In the previous cases, we found only ashes. We didn't even know whether it was a man or a woman but now, we found it. I think we are traveling on the right path. I hope we will reach the killer soon. Thank you so much, ASR. If you had not guided me, I would have missed the killer this time too..." Aman's voice overflew with joy.

"But, we could not save the girl" Arnav regretted.

"At least we got a clue. According to me, it's the biggest progress of the case."

"Mmm"

"How are you feeling now, ASR?"

"I'm all right. Khushi made me take enough rest"

"She did a good job. I'm going to the spot. I want you to come to the spot if you feel better"

"I will come..."

"Thank you, ASR"

"Mmm"

Arnav disconnected the call and looked at Khushi.

"The next murder happened. Aman wants me to go to the spot"

"Whaaaat? Have you gone mad? You are not feeling well..." She was shocked.

"I'm much better now, Khushi. You too join me..."

"Then? How can I let you go alone in this condition?"

"I'm all right, Khushi"

"This is how you work without a rest?" She asked frowning.

"Not all the time... only if it is necessary"

"What's necessary that you are going to the spot now? Is it your work or what?"

"I promised Aman that I would be with him in this case. He wants me"

Khushi rolled her eyes.

"Ok, let's go... we will keep your promise together..." she mocked.

"You can stay if you are not interested"

She glared at him and said,

"Stop annoying me. Let's go" She walked.

Arnav followed her smilingly. Khushi started the bike and looked at Arnav.

"I can ride," He said.

"Won't you sit behind a woman? Is it a prestige issue for you?" She asked sarcastically even though he was not that kind.
