Manav: I don't think the dealer is the one who killed her. He did come there, but after her death. He panicked seeing her dead and left, dropping the drug by mistake. I can't say 100% surely though.

Riya: But if not him, then who? 

Manav: Jai, can you tell me their pasts? Its very necessary. Without that the case will be very difficult to solve.

Jai nodded. He repeated everything he had said the other day. Manav never knew Avneet or Avanti though. 

Jai: Once Avanti tried selling Avi. 

All except Manav were shocked, he just knew he had to solve the case so didn't react much.  

Manav: How and to whom? 

Jai: She needed money for the drug and couldn't let us know that she is trying to sell her sister. So she made a deal with a man that Avu will remain living here normally, he can't kidnap her for at least 2 months. As if it happened on the moment, doubt can come on her. I already heard her talking to the dealer about the drug and knew she'll try some way to arrange the money. I kept eye on her always and once caught her meeting the man. Then I said Avu everything, so that she is alert at all times. 

Manav: Did he come within those two months? 

Jai: No, he didn't. But after two months, he did as expected. But he was unsuccessful and was sent to jail. Avanti got scared that she may be exposed, not knowing that I and Avi already knew it. After few days the murder took place. For once we doubted that man, but after cross checking we found out he was in jail the whole time. No one had even gone to meet him.

Manav: Who is this man? 

Jai: His details are also there in her phone. Check the whatsapp. 

Manav did and his eyes widened. 

Manav: I know this man also and someone who can give you all your answers also. I'll have to leave now itself. Anyone else is coming or shall I go? 

Abhi: I'll come. 

All agreed and they both left. Riya knew now they'll start enquiring her. 

Reem: How do you know Manav? 

Riya: He was the person I was teaching. 

Vaish: Do you know his impression in college? 

Riya: All are scared of him as he is a police officer's son. 

Sid: And can do anything using that power. He misuses it and is good at fighting also, which is not good for others. He beat one boy badly once. 

Riya: He doesn't misuse any power. And there must be some reason that he beat that boy. And the person who doesn't talk to his father properly will use that power? We all heard their words outside. 

Reem: Maybe he isn't dangerous then. 

Riya: If he was then I wouldn't be his friend till now.  

Sid: Then no one knew him, just knew his father. 

Meanwhile with Abhi and Manav, 

Abhi: Manav, you drove past the police station. 

Manav: I know. We aren't going to the police station. 

Abhi: Then? 

Manav: You'll know. 

He stopped after sometime. They went in and saw a man. 

Manav: Hello uncle. 

Man: Manav, you are here. I was waiting for you only. 

Manav: I fulfilled my promise, now your turn. 

Man: Here it is. 

He forwarded a piece of paper. Manav was shocked. 

Manav: It can't be. 

Man: This is the truth. I used all my sources and confirmed many times. I was also shocked. 

Manav: I can't believe it. Make me meet him, now. 

Man: Ok then, lets go to police station. 

Manav: You be here itself. Abhi, you be here with uncle. I'll come. 

Abhi: But who is he? And what's going on. 

Manav: The person who killed Avanti is found. But he is not the only culprit, there are many people who have to be punished for this. Few alive and

He clenched his fists while saying "few dead". 

Manav: I'll be back. Uncle will explain you everything. 

Abhi nodded and Manav left. 

Man: The person you came for, he is my younger brother. I know my brother isn't innocent, but he had no hand in what happened to that girl, Avanti. He was angry at the unsuccessful attempt, but he couldn't escape jail. 

Abhi: Then who killed her and why? 

Man: His son killed Avanti because his father went to jail, and the reason was Avanti. That's what any investigation you do will lead you to. 

Abhi: Is that the truth? 

Man: No, it isn't. I mean the person who killed her is the same, but not the reason. Someone else wanted her dead. Mrs. Raheja. 

Abhi: The officer's wife? 

Man: Yes, that's the reason he closed the case back then and mislead you all now.

Abhi: But how is she related to any of this? 

Man: She had an affair and a son with my brother which Avanti had found out. On one side she was scared Avanti may tell anyone, on the other side angry that because of Avanti he is in jail. She didn't want to take any risk though, so used her connections. She asked one of her men from the illegal gang she has to kidnap her son's fiance. The gang members blackmailed him using his fiance saying that he'll have to kill Avanti. He agreed after a lot of time and many more threats, to save his fiance.

Why does Manav hate his father?

Why was he already investigating the case?

Who should be punished according to you- Mrs. Raheja's son or the gang or both? [ Mrs. Raheja is not alive.]
