Steadily I am getting to the conclusions, but still I do not get any clarity why the old man had a picture of the dean. So, I got to hurry up and know the whereabouts of Jeevan Kumar. I went back home. Had a little nap, but still my mind is fully fixed on the case, I woke up and went to the mirror. My eyes were red and suddenly I was shocked to see myself having half of my face and other half of the skin pealed off and within minutes I saw it getting to normal.
This is how Teja would have felt when he first met with the accident. Its weird to believe but possible that Teja is now moving around with an unusual face which is not his own. Every time he see's himself in the mirror, There is another person who is looking at him with the same expression as himself but not looking like him. Hope Teja just believes that the face he has now is his own.
But first things first, I need to get back to the hospital and see if I could find details of Jeevan. That day I went back to the hospital. There were not many patients, I was going to the deans room directly. But suddenly out of no where came a stretcher running in from the sides in front of me, On the stretcher was lying a dead body. I thought at the first place that this was usual for a hospital and entered the deans room. I was talking to acting dean and enquiring about the details of Jeevan, A doctor entered the room and was totally tensed along with a police officer.
The doctor said to the dean,
" Sir, It is a mysterious case, you have to come and watch yourself."
The dean replied, " What happened ? " , he turned back to me and said " Excuse me officer if you don't mind I need to leave, We can discuss once I come back".
Now I was speaking to the dean, Its ok dean, but let me think, Its my job to solve the mysteries, so please allow me to also see what's happened?
"Ok sir, we shall go together", the dean replied.
We walked along and reached the mortuary, There was the dead body that was recently brought in. The dean had a look at the dead body and was stunned. what's this? this is the same person whom Jeevan treated and was the reason why he was suspended. How was he killed?
The parents of the original who lost their son some months back and who were not accepting their son's face to be given to some other has killed him in the centre of the road. Because their son did not had his cremation rites done correctly they were too sad and killed him with their own hands.
Now I understood why the dean expelled him. At first I thought Jeevan was right in giving the dying a face from stealing it from the dead. Like stealing the rich and feeding the needy as shown in the films I thought he was a hero. But now, Emotionally he was also a villain to those who lost the last chance to have a glance at their son and longing to hug him for the last time before his body disappears in the fire.
But this was all past, The dean explained how the parents longed for the body of their son and how they felt when he was returned to them with his facial skin pealed off. That's how I felt when I looked in the mirror. Then, I asked the dean about Jeevan and got his details, this time more furious and determined to solve the case. I got his details, I went to his house, his house was locked I enquired the neighbours and they said that after Jeevan got suspended both his parents and wife left the place. I asked if I can have the details of their family and where they were living etc., but they do not know a word after Jeevan got suspended. I also enquired if they atleast have the picture, description or anything about their family. Suddenly in the neighbours house there was a boy who was studying his 12th he said he has pictures of the whole family of Jeevan during one of the parties that was held at their home.
He showed me the pictures and I was shocked once again, The old man who has a photo of the dean in his purse was none other than Jeevan's father and if Jeevan was the masked man why would he kill his own father.
