Part 3
The door was locked. Bidhuji unlocked it. We entered.
The room was medium, not much furniture around, but all furniture are arranged properly. There is a Kashmiri carpet. A small three stand table with table cloth, a cupboard on that some pair of pant shirts, dhotis, pyjamas kept properly. Some burnished shoes are kept aside. There is a bed on the left side corner, neatly wrapped with bed sheet. But thing on the bed, looks like someone is sleeping facing side. There are some medicine bottles and some tablets on the bedside table. The room was giving a taste of its master. Bharmalji was a neat and clean person. But on his bed he was killed brutally feel next to impossible.
Onn the three pair table there is a cup full of tea was kept. Jalal first analyse that. Last he said in mild voice like he was talking to himself, "this cup is half empty due to the tea split out from it but the tea plate if full of tea...why???"
Bidhuji with patience said in annoyed voice, "I said earlier na...that girl..."
"Ya I heard. But why?"
Bidhuji didn't think to answer his stupid question. But look towards the window with disgust.
Jalal carefully pick up the cup. Then taste the tea with the spoon kept there. For a second I saw the change in his facial expression. It's not shock but astonishment. Like He had found something strange on that tea. Then he kept the thing as its place and went to the bed.
Looking at the bed for some time he asked, "Did anyone of you examine the body? Is that having as it was?"
"Yes, only covered till his neck. We pull out the needle."
Jalal slowly pull the sheet from the dead body. Thin, log looking person, like sleeping on his side facing. Some of his hairs are white, some are black. Wrinkles written all over his face. but there is no pain of death in his face...irony!!!
Jalal carefully examine the body without moving it. Sliding the hair of shoulder, looking carefully his nose, he examine the body all over. Then he called Bidhuji and said, "you have examined the body well, but still you are not examine it carefully." He said those word exactly the way Bidhuji always Taunt him.
Bidhuji's face became red with anger, yet he calm himself and said, "And how can you say that?"
"you have examine the body well I must say" he cover it up, "yet you have missed two important clue." Jalal say carefully looking towards victim's nose.
"what's that?" Bidhuji said in sarcasm tone.
"you didn't see, victim has 3 small black spot on his neck. Looks like someone pin a needle on his neck."
Bidhuji didn't notice it earlier, now he saw it and said, yes, but I think its nothing." Jalal just look at him like you are such an idiot', and nod his head. Bidhuji continued, "I think the killer didn't find the place between medulla and spine. But what's the second thing?"
"did you notice his nose?"
"no, why?"
Bidhuji noticed his nose. I also bend a bit to check it. There are some black spot around his nose hole. like when anyone have cold and he rub his nose several time.
"I thing he got cold recently. It happen rubbing nose several times. What you find by this?" taunt clearly sounding in his voice.
"Nothing----nothing. Ok let's go next room. I thing its bharmalji's Study room?"
There are chair table writing desk, typewriter, computer, book shelf everything have. Bharmalji spend most of his time here.
Bidhuji pointing towards the locker of the table said, "The wills were in this locker."
Jalal searched this room very well. But nothing found. On that locker there is nothing else. There is a bathroom opposite the table. Jalal checked it fully. The come out and said, "no here nothing to see. Total loss!!!" then look towards Bidhuji, "let's go to Sujamal's room. Is her the decedent of the victim, right? Oh one more thing can I see the needle"
Bidhuji took out a small forensic packet from his left pocket. Jalal took it and took out the needle in his two fingers. The needle is not a ordinary needle. It's quite long compare to normal stitching needle"something like Kantha or to say embroidery needle. A little thread stick on its end.
Jalal's eyes gone wide in shock. He said with shock voice, "Oh my god!! What is this!!"
Bidhuji come to him. "what happened."
"look at this carefully Buddhuji!!" Jalal slips his tongue. Oops!!
"Whhhaatt??? Bidhuji shocked with his word.
Jalal came out of his shock state and realise his mistoungue. Oohh God!! "aahhmm sorry bidhuji I mean just look at this."
"What?? What's in this small needle?"
"Can't you see this? There is a small thread on the end of this needle. A black thread."
"I can see that but what's the big deal on that. Thread should be wear in needle only. It's very common."
Jalal smile sheepishly yet innocently to Bidhuji. "Yes you are right. Sui pe hi to dhaga rehta hai... (then murmured) ek dhaga aapke bum ke piche bhi lagni chahiye, dikhne me bada accha lagega.bilkul humare purvach jaise!!!" He smile in heart. I can hear what he said. But bidhuji is in front of me. I am not that lucky like him can laugh.
