THE MEETING WAS HELD AT SOURABH'S ROOM. EVERYOBODY SAT SCATTERED. EVERYONE WAS SERIOUS. NO ROMANCE, NO JOKES. jOKES AND ROMANCE ON ONE SIDE AND PROFESSIONALISM AND WORK ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE. THEY RIGHT NOW FOCUSED ON THE OTHER SIDE. THEY WERE INVESTIGATING THE MATTER. MR RAHUL CHOPRA HAS GIVEN THEM THE PERMISSION TO LOOK INTO THE MATTER. THEY WERE DISCUSSING THE MATTER. EVERYONE WAS SILENT. IT WAS POOJA WHO BROKE THE ICE.
"PAARTH," SHE SPOKE
"YES DI,' PAARTH REPLIED.
"SHOW ME THE PICTURES OF THE EVIDENCES YOU CLICKED. MUJHE WOH ACCHE SE DEKHNA HAI." POOJA REPLIED.
PAARTH LOADED THE PICTURES ON HIS LAPTOP FROM HIS CAMERA AND SHOWED IT TO EVERYONE. EVERYONE LOOKED AT IT CAREFULLY EXCEPT SANSKRUTI. SUMEDH NOTICED THE CHANGE WITHIN HER., BUT KEPT QUIET. 

"AISA NAHI HOGA, PAARTH PRINT THE PICTURES AND LET EVERYONE HAVE A COPY OF THE PICTURES INDIVIDUALLY." SUMEDH SAID.

'HMM, YOU ARE RIGHT" SOURABH SUPPORTED AS HE LOOKED AT ERICA. ERICA IS A FORENSIC EXPERT AND A SCIENCE STUDENT. 

"ERICA, HAVE YOU BROUGHT YOUR FORENSIC KIT?" SOURABH ASKED.

ERICA QUICKLY SHOWED HER KIT TO EVERYONE. 

"GOOD, YOU WILL ANALYSE THE BLOOD SAMPLE. OKAY?" POOJA ORDERED.

"BUT I DONT HAVE THE SAMPLE. I NEED YOU GUYS TO BRING ME SOME SAMPLE."

"WOH HUMPE CHOR DE, WE BOYS ARE GOING TO PEEK INTO THE ROOM TONIGHT. POLICE ZYADA KUCH NAHI LE GAYE AJ. JAISA THA WAISE HI REH GAYA. HUME KUCH EVIDENCE MILA TO WOH COLLECT KARENGE." 

EVERYONE NODDED EXCEPT SANSKRUTI. SUMEDH NOTICED HER BUT KEPT MUUMED. IT WAS POOJA WHO QUESTIONED HER. "KYA HUA TUJHE? CHUP KYUN HAI?"

"NOTHING DI, I WAS LISTENING TO YOU ALL." SANSKRUTI REPLIED. BUT SUMEDH KNEW SHE WASN'T LISTENING AT ALL. SANSKRUTI WAS DISGUSTED FOR A REASON. GOD KNOWS WHAT REASON.

2:00 AM,MIDNIGHT. THE SURROUNDING WAS UNUSUALLY QUIET. THE CORRIDOR LIGHTS WERE DIMLY LIT. SOURABH AND PAARTH WAITED FOR SUMEDH WHO WENT TO STEAL THE ROOM KEYS. THE ORIGINAL KEY WAS UNDER POLICE CUSTODY. BUT THE RESORT HAD IT'S DUPLICATE KEY. THE KEY WAS WITH THE NIGHT GUARD.  AND SUMEDH HAD TO STEAL IT. HE CREEPED  INTO THE SECURITY ROOM TO FIND THE GUARD ASLEEP IN FRONT OF THE CCTV MONITOR.

"WAAH! KYA BADIYA SECURITY HAI! NIGHT GUARD NIGHT DUTY MAIN GHORE BECHKE SO RAHA HAI. CHALO CHLOROFORM TO BACH GAYA." SUMEDH THOUGHT TO HIMSELF AS HE CRAWLED INTO THE ROOM. HE WENT TO THE KEY BOARD WHERE ALL THE DUPLICATE KEYS WERE HANGED. HE NOISELESSLY PICKED UP THE KEY OF ROOM 303, MALLIKA'S ROOM. SHANAYA HAS BEEN SHIFTED TO ADITI'S ROOM WITH ALL HER BELONGINGS. { WHO IS ADITI, IS NOT A SIGNIFICANT QUESTION, SO DONT THINK ABOUT IT.}. AFTER STEALING THE KEY SUMEDH WENT TO ROOM 303, IN FRONT OF WHICH SOURABH AND PAARTH WAS WAITING FOR HIM.

"KOI PARESHAANI NAHI HUI NA?" SOURABH CLARIFIED.

SUMEDH CLICKED HIS TONGUE TO EXPRESS THE EASE WITH WHICH HE STOLE THE KEY. "NIGHT GUARD GHORE BECHKE SO RAHA THA, AUR KHARATE BHI MAAR RAHA THA."

PAARTH GIGGLED, "OKAY, TO AB WOH KOI CHOR  KO KUMPHU KHARATE MARKE BHAGAYEGA.." SUMEDH LAUGHED TOO.

"SHUT UP GUYS..FOCUS" SOURABH ORDERED.

THE THREE BOYS PEEPED INTO THE ROOM SECRETLY. THERE WAS LEAST CHANGE IN THE ROOM FROM THE PREVIOUS TIME. BLOOD SPILLED OVER, LAMPS BROKEN, CURTAINS TORN. THE POLICE HAS COLLECTED ONLY THE OBJECTS THROUGH WHICH THEY CAN DETECT FINGERPRINTS. WHILE SUMEDH COLLECTED A LITTLE BIT OF BLOOD AS SAMPLE, PAARTH AND SOURABH SEARCHED THE ROOM FOR EVIDENCES. SOURABH WAS SEARCHING THE BATHROOM. IT WAS THEN HE FOUND TWO SCREWS FALLEN BESIDE THE COMMODE. SOURABH OBSERVED THE BATHROOM WINDOW JUST ABOVE THE COMMODE. HE NOTICED THAT TWO SCREWS WERE MISSING WHICH MADE THE WINDOW GLASS UNSTABLE, THUS LETTING ANYONE TO ENTER THE BATHROOM FROM OUTSIDE. MALLIKA'S ROOM WAS ON 2ND FLOOR, SO IT WAS NOT A BIG DEAL FOR ANYONE TO CLIMP IT. BUT AT THE SAME TIME HE UNDERSTOOD THAT IT WAS SOMEONE WHO OPENED THE WINDOW FROM INSIDE.
