The scene was brutal, but the case looked solved jaldi—Shyam had left too many saboot.

No one in the gaon could believe it: khoon, paseena, and that pehchani hui gold chain. Like the qatil wanted to be pakda gaya.

A gold chain, lying in the khoon.

Bodily fluids on the victim.

And after testing, the khoon at the scene wasn’t just Anjali’s.

No ek aadmi can lose that much blood.

Another part of the blood, and the fluids on Anjali, belonged to one aurat.

That khoon, those fluids, and the gold chain in the khoon—all pointed to the same aadmi.

That man was Shyam, an old bachelor of the gaon.

Shyam—the one people called manhoos, thoda ajeeb, always muttering to himself, always in the background at shaadis, never in the tasveer.
