When none of them spoke, the old man took the specially designed chuffs and moved toward a person.

He stood in front of him and with a smirk was going to say something but Aarav came between them.

" Dur se bhi baat ho sakti hai " Aarav says standing protective in front of a person.

" Are chote Rajput ji , finally mulakaat hue aapse" The man says looking at Aarav.

Aarav raised a eyebrow confused by the statement he just heard.

" Aapse kabhi baad me dhang se baat karenge, abhi mujhe mera kaam karne dijiye, hatiye samne se " The old man says politely.

" Aapko bhai se kya kaam hai ? " Aarav asked.

" Are inhi se tuh main kaam hai , yahi tuh main culprit hai " The Oldman says.

" Kuch bhi ? " Aarav says totally denying.

" Mujhe jhut bolke kya milega Mr. Rajput, aap samne se hateenege ya mai kud hatau " the old man says.

" Kosish bhi mat kariega,mai Mannu bhai jitna aacha nhi hu samjhe aap " Aarav says.

" Tumhare 'Mannu bhai ' kitne acche hai ye tumne kud dekh liya hai " The old man says.

" Aap mere hi ghar me aake kuch bhi bakwas karenge , aur hum man lenge ? Pagal lagte hai ? " Anay says coming in defence too.

"Tsk tsk tsk kitna trust hai apne bhai pe , afsos bhai us trust layak nhi hai " The old man says looking at two protective man standing infront of Manik shielding him.

" Bakwas katam hue tuh nikaliye " Anay says not really liking the presence of the old man.

" Kuldeep laptop do " The old man asks looking at one of the many security officers standing there. Kuldeep passed him a laptop.

Aarav with others got shocked as the laptop was same one as Manik's.

" Isse pehchana ? " The old man says showing the laptop.

Manik frowned." Why the hell he had his laptop? Wasn't it in his studio?"

" Ha laptop hai tuh ? " Aashvi says.

" Ye manik ka laptop hai and let me show you the real him." The man said before opening it. He then looked at Manik smirked before unlocking the laptop.

It shocked Manik as he heard the laptop unlock. His laptop can't be that easy to hack for them to unlock it. He himself designed the code for protecting his laptop from getting hacked.

" This only means they knew the password but how ? "

" Hmm here you go " The man then turned the laptop so that everyone can look.

" Please enlighten me, why the hell will a singer have coding apps?
Why does he have Nmap (Network Mapper) ? Why would a singer need that ? " The old man says. He then opened other folder containing the codes, data and infos.

The whole family was shocked to the core with the discovery they just did. Aarav turns towards Manik and says.

" Bhai-i y-ye aap-pka nhi h-hai n " Aarav says still not ready to believe what he just show. And why would anyone will? His Bhai was the most innocent and kind creature anyone could ever find. And they are saying he hacked banks? And killed children? This was the biggest joke he ever heard.

Manik just stood silently not knowing what to do.

" What more proofs do you need to believe that ? " Kuldeep says smiling.
