4. Who is the Killer?

 #4

After comparing them, you found a similarity between them. The font used in both were the same. This made you think that the killer is into Blackmagic. The next morning, you had a phone call. There was a stranger on the other side. He asked you to meet him near the abandoned villa on the outskirts of the city after sunset.

Sunset…

               You were standing alone near that abandoned villa. It was getting darker as time passes. It was a grandeur villa. It was once owned by a Mughal emperor. After his death, this villa was abandoned. The government is now moving coins to convert this into a museum. This abandoned villa has become a hotspot of crime in recent days. Many have started spreading rumours that an evil man who practices black magic lives here. The local legend says that, some years ago, a Muslim trader and his family of three kids entered this villa seeking shelter from the rain. Something terrible was happened that night according to the locals. They didn’t know what had happened. As days passed, a foul smell started coming out of the villa. The locals were shocked when they entered the main hall of the villa. They found five dead bodies hanging from the chandelier in the main hall of the villa. Their face was brutally damaged. There were some strange drawings and inscriptions on the floor beneath their bodies. This was the most shocking and breathtaking news in the entire city during that period. They say that after that incident, this place has become a hotspot of crime and many urban and local legends.

               It was the third hour after sunset. But that stranger didn’t show up. You called him but, the call was not answered. An hour later, you saw someone walking towards you. You were ready with your gun on your hand. He came close to your ears and whispered, ‘Save the siblings.’ He then gave a piece of paper to you. You are eager to open and see what’s written in it. You lowered your head and started reading it. When you raised your head after a few seconds, that man was gone.

               You were confused after seeing that paper. There were three names written on that paper. Smrithiksha Khan, Rithiksha Khan, Chandan.

 

What will you do now? You are confused and you have three choices.

Inform the inspector about that stranger and let him do his job.

Interrogate Rithiksha and Chandan.

Enter the villa looking for clues.

    I will interrogate Rithiksha and Chandan. Because the stranger said that save the siblings,,may be smritika and Rithiksha refers to siblings.

It was around three hours to midnight. I was walking along a road that was dark and inhabited. I could hear the noise of katydids and crickets chirping here and there. I was afraid to walk alone along that spooky road. I touched my heart to feel how fast it was beating. My skin started releasing the potion of fear. I was biting my lips out of nervousness. I was afraid to take even a single step. Suddenly, I received a call. ‘Hey! Where are you?’ he asked. ‘I am at the entrance, standing alone, afraid to take even a single step.’ I said. ‘I am at the restaurant, waiting for you,’ he said. ‘It’s too dark here, I am afraid of this locality. Can you come and pick me?’ I asked. ‘Hey, you are a brave girl, right? You are just a few metres away from me. Just close your eyes and start walking,’ he said. I felt safe talking to him. His voice drove me mad and it made me do whatever he told me. I was stating my every single step and he was giving me confidence and courage. Eventually,...

Years after quarantine

A letter to the next generation Hey! decades passed, but the world is still in quarantine. When you were reading this letter in the future, I won't be there for you to hold and rub your cold hands to make you feel warm. I have been counting on my final strokes of breath. My eyes turned pale as there is none to cure my cataract. My legs stopped obeying my brain. My brain has announced its retirement. It has stopped its work one by one. All that I could do is just sit, lie on my bed and see the stars that I pasted on the walls when I am at the age of yours. My dear grandchildren decades ago, the earth was beautiful. It was filled with lots and lots of green trees, forests, animals, birds, and humans as well. But we, humans, didn't realise that nature is for each and every living being. We started using each and every resource that mother earth gave to her children without leaving for others. This created cancer on mother earth. Which made her angry. Then the day arrived, th...

The Villa Reborn: Episode 02

After clicking the publish button on the interface, she desperately wanted to close her laptop and doze off. But it was then, she noticed something strange on her screen. It was Instagram with a red dot on top of it. She clicked to open it. There was a message from someone called Javier.       ‘She’s coming.’      ‘7 nights and 6 days,' was the message from that person. She was too tired to think about that message. She just closed the lid of the laptop and dozed off to sleep.  The next morning,      The clock was running past eight and she was still sailing deep in sleep. It was then, her mobile started ringing so loud as it used to ring all the time. After a few rings, she realised it and woke up to answer that call. It was Bharath.      ‘What’s the matter? Let ...
