Raat bahut shaant thi.
Itni shaant… ki silence bhi cheekh rahi thi.
City ke outskirts me ek purani road thi, jahan streetlights aadhi zinda thi aur aadhi mari hui. Hawa thandi thi, par ajeeb si garmi mehsoos ho rahi thi — jaise koi dekh raha ho.
Inspector Aarav apni car se utra.
Ground par police tape lagi hui thi.
"Sir… ye third case hai is mahine ka," constable ne dheere se kaha.
Aarav ne sirf nod kiya.
Uski aankhon me gussa nahi tha… samajhne ki zid thi.
Har case me ek cheez same thi:
No fingerprints
No witnesses
No message
Bas ek line… har baar crime scene par likhi hoti thi:
"You never saw me."
Aarav ko ye killer pasand nahi tha.
Aur ye killer… Aarav ko already jaanta tha.
Suddenly Aarav ka phone vibrate hua.
Unknown Number
Message:
"You're late, Inspector."
Aarav ki saans ruk si gayi.
Usne aas-paas dekha — andheraa, khamoshi, aur hawa.
Koi tha… par dikha nahi.
Killer sirf dangerous nahi tha.
Wo patient tha.
Smart tha.
Aur sabse zyada khatarnak baat—
Wo game khel raha tha.
Aarav ne phone tight pakda aur bola, "Game start ho chuka hai."
And somewhere in the dark.....
Wait please 2 chapter...🙇😌
