It was more than day that Ashitoush was killed and the family was yet to claim his body.As they were progressing with all the procedures for  claiming the same, Samarth's  cell phone rang.

"Samarth, I want to meet you tonight under any circumstance. Will be there at Hotel Moonlight by 10:00pm."

"But,dear..." The caller hung up from the other side.

Samarth, was Ashitoush's brother and business partner. They both shared very healthy relationships. He did  lament the loss of his brother but was back to his usual pranks- Girls, Drinks!

Samarth was already there an hour earlier and was pretty much drunk. She came there, stood right in front of him. Her eyes were bloodshed with anger, to him it was lust. Her hands were trembling, she was basically shaking with anger , and not fear. She looked nice and trim in her lovely black gown that flowed till her feet. Her neck was adorned with a single strand of pearls. Both of them went into the room. 

She sat right across him. He stared at her. Unable to withstand his gaze, she got up and walked to the chest of drawers in the corner of the room She looked into the mirror hung there. Here image glowed. Samarth followed suit and stood behind her ,gave her a hug. His hands reached for the pearls and he pulled. They dropped. The pearls lay scattered on the floor. All of a sudden she swirled around and pulled a dagger from her purse that she was holding to and stabbed him thrice .

He dropped dead. 

"Taxi!'

'Crescent Road." The cab disappeared into darkness.

The case file was given to Encounter Specialist, Inspector Sachin.  Rukhsana  obtained permission from the higher officials to assist him in the case and investigate. 

"Rukhsana, this is not a family feud, as I see. It's money and nothing else."

"Yes, I suppose so." she shrugged.

"Hi! I am Inspector Sachin. Am here to investigate the murder of the Banerjee Brothers. My interrogation cum investigation would start tomorrow. Would keep you posted...don't ask me anything more right now." he told the Press.
