My eyes remained on the pictures of these two men on the screen

My eyes remained on the pictures of these two men on the screen. “They’re Karan and Aryan. It’s mystery men, not man.”

“Two murderers?” Arisa jaw-dropped. “Yeah, their names end with N.” Her eyes met mine.

“K.A.R.A.N.” Rohan spelled the names, counting each letter on his fingers. “A.R.Y.A.N! Oh my gosh.”

“Officer Rohan, behave properly. You’re on duty.”

He sat in a straight posture on my command. “But how did you find out?”

“By retrieving the deleted data from Anisha’s devices.” My eyes focused on her laptops, tabs, and phones. “And they were three murderers, but at present it’s two.”

“Two?” Imran squinted his eyes on the devices.

“Anisha. Indirectly she helped them.”I turned on the call recording on my laptop.

“Karan, stop blackmailing me.”

“Anisha, then team up with us. Once Abhishek dies, hand over the fifty shares to your cousin. And, we will get married.”

We glanced at each other. “Aryan Randhawa.” Arisa’s mouth formed a ‘o’.

“Okay.” She sobbed. “Explain.”

“You’ll send your father to Room no. 205. It’s booked under Nishant Shergill’s name.”

“Is he involved?”

“No. He isn’t. Just send him to the room.”

The recording ended. I selected the next one. Mayank Sir stayed silent.

“Are you dumb, Karan? Garv is in jail.”

“Shut the fuck up. That stupid singer ruined our plan. The investigation team is looking into the case. We’ve fucked up.” Aryan yelled on the call.

“There’s nothing new.”

Rohan hesitatingly exchanged stares with the remaining members present in the room.
