Who Is The Actual Murderer!?

Robin keeps absolutely silent all along her way to Wenn. She neither says nor replies to anything. Observing her condition and realizing her pain, Mr. Maxwell doesn't disturb her and keeps quiet too. As soon as they reach Wenn, they hire a Taxi and move to Mr. Robert's house, that is Robin's residence where she packs all of her belongings and stuff into a bag with the help of Mr. Maxwell. Whenever she looks at the bed of her father and his accessories, she sinks into the deep sea of memories and sheds a lot of tears. Placing her hand over her heart again and again exhibits that she feels heartache since when she has entered her sweet home and perceives darkness everywhere as if the candle has been put out. She keeps weeping like a child and calling her father aloud. Mr. Maxwell keeps consoling her, as having nothing to react with.

As soon as she zips up her bag and they set up as if they are reluctant to leave, Robin turns abruptly to him and speaks in a quavering voice, "Uncle Max! If we will go to the hospital, where my father was being treated, and meet Dr. Ed, to ask about the cause of his death, I think my heart would get a little satisfaction. However, I would at least ask about his last moments. I hope they will be enough to relieve me! After all, we are leaving Wenn forever!"

"Yeah, sure my daughter! Just stop weeping please! It hurts me too!" Retorts Mr. Maxwell.

After they step down to the main road, Mr. Maxwell hires a taxi and puts her suitcases in it. Robin keeps staring at the households till her last sight. Finally, Mr. Maxwell locks up the door and they move to the hospital. As they approach the hospital, Robin goes to the reception and is followed by Mr. Maxwell, and asks about the presence of Dr. Ed. They are instructed to wait for a few minutes as he is busy with a patient. As soon as he arrives and perceives Robin, he seems slightly glad but becomes grieved to see her.

"Hello, Sir! Hope you are doing well!" Dr. Ed greets him with a firm handshake with Mr. Maxwell.

"Hi, Robin! How are you? And what's this?" She asks Robin while pointing her plastered hand.

"I am fine, Dr! Nothing much, It just got a slight crack in an accident! Actually … How was he?" She retorts feebly.

"Oh, Yeah! Actually Robin, I was astounded that nobody called the ambulance that morning but we sent it because we were noting the dates of his treatment and when he was taken to me, he was already dead!" He retorts with despaired amazed expressions.

"But who took him to the hospital!?" She asks astounded.

"Your cousin Ritcher!" He briefly replies.

"Was he shot?" She puts forward another question.

"No! He was killed by choking! And the major point was that nobody called the police's involvement in the case and no enquiries were carried out!" He responds while expressing his amazement.

Robin's tears begin to drop endlessly.

"Sir! He was even donated with a kidney and Robin knew very well that he was getting well!" Adds Dr. Ed.

"Yeah! I remember! He was happy!" She retorts with a mild blissful smirk over her lips.

"But who donated him a kidney?" Mr. Maxwell asks curiously along with great eagerness to know.

"It was an adult boy! His file might be somewhere in my office! He was strong enough! I was astonished to see that his tissues matched quite perfectly even though he had no relation with Mr. Robert." Dr. Ed retorts with his glad curl over his lips increasing their eagerness to know and getting their attraction more and more towards that unknown person.

"What? Who was he? Do you even remember his name?" She seems unable to resist her patience, being stared at by Mr. Maxwell.

"His name was a little bit weird, I feel I remember, I just need to concentrate more. Although, he didn't provide us with too much information about himself and it was an emergency situation too, so we were focused more towards saving your father rather than asking him to collect his entire information. In Fact, we did his tests ourselves."

"Try to remember the name please!" She insists on him.

Dr. Ed seems sunk in his tangled thoughts, trying to remember a weird name then suddenly speaks suggestively, "Heartless! I think so!"

"What?" Mr. Maxwell exclaims along with Robin as if they are thrilled with a surprising shock throughout their entire body and their mouths are left open.

"But!... But! He killed him." She begins peering into his face as if she is trying to believe the reality. Mr. Maxwell also seems unable to believe him.

"No! Ritcher said that there was nobody at home except him when I asked him about calling someone." He retorts calmly expressing his assurance.

"How can you believe him?" Mr. Maxwell asks him with slightly worried brows.

"Heartless seemed to be quite kind, entirely opposite to his name. When I asked him the reason for donating his kidney to an unknown person without even knowing him, he replied;

"Being a billionaire is not as easy as one might think, Doctor! There is someone who doesn't want him alive … just for the lust of money but very soon I will hatch another plan because he needs to stay alive to nurture his young daughter no matter what happens with his money. I guess life and someone's presence as a shelter is more important than printed notes."

Robin's and Mr. Maxwell's mouth is left open and they keep staring at his face with their eyes stretched wide.

Dr. Ed further includes, "If he wanted to kill him so why did he waste his own kidney over him. Ritcher also told me that Robin has gone to Berge to meet her uncle. He was not taking good care of your father as well."

"How did he know that I was at Berge? I am suspicious about him. I don't know why but my doubt darts his name again and again. He asked me to meet that girl at the reception. How would that girl know him and why would she ask him to call me? Uncle Max! Heartless gave me a hint that he was with our enemies. I remember, he was just about to kill me too, infact, he had pointed his gun at me. He was in the same ground where you and Allen arrived to save me. It was Heartless, who saved me!"

She begins breathing at a faster rate and seems as if her heart has begun beating faster too. She is trying to say a lot of things but out of confusion, she seems unable to speak at least a single word. Mr. Maxwell seems worried and keeps staring at her.

"Uncle! I am pretty sure that he can never hurt me and can never kill my dad too. All I want is just to meet him once. He knows each and everything! Your idea was incorrect about him. He didn't kill dad. He saved him and me too!! Uncle Max! He was the only one who approached me as an angel and saved me from the kidnappers who kept me in an ancient dark building. Uncle Max! Donating his own kidney is not a little point! I am not going to believe Allen anymore. Let's meet him once and clear the clutter. I want to know the reality regarding my father's death. We are going to Berge right now."

"I am also surprised, my daughter, in fact, I am confused! We should have to meet him once. Thank you, Dr. Thanks a lot for the kind information! We were truly derailed. The information you provided will help us reach the actual murderer." Mr. Maxwell speaks thankfully along with a passionate possession over his face.

After greeting him very well, they depart from the hospital and move back to the railway station where they keep waiting for the train in which seats and the return tickets are already booked by Allen. The train arrives and they leave Wenn and reach Berge at midnight and swiftly hire a taxi. Robin keeps silent but seems determined whereas Mr. Maxwell keeps thinking all the way long.

After they have settled themselves within the Taxi after putting in her suitcase, Robin addresses Mr. Maxwell, "Uncle Max! May I ask where we are going right now?"

"We are going to my apartment, dear." He retorts with a pleasant smile while seeming tired.

"Oh, yes, I was just asking for the reason that Heartless … !" She speaks in a slow feeble voice.

"It is too late, my daughter. Although, we have not eaten anything yet either. We will surely see him in the morning. Don't be so fast, dear, I am also equally disturbed as you are!" He interrupts her while speaking in a soft tone with a slight smirk over his lips.

"Yes, Uncle! I can feel it! You are running from Wenn to Berge and vice versa with me." She retorts with the same pleasant smile.

While traveling in the taxi, suddenly his mobile phone rings.

He says to Robin, "It is Allen, here!"

Robin seems a little bit annoyed by hearing his name and turns his eyes away whereas he receives the call with an exasperated sigh..

"Hello, Sir! I Hope you are doing well! According to our plan, you must have reached Berge. Am I right?" Allen speaks aloud.

"Yes! We are in a Taxi, on our way to my apartment." He retorts in a low voice and calm accent.

"Great, Sir! I have booked the seats for Xyshania for tomorrow morning." He responds happily.

"What! Shit Man! … What are the timings, by the way?" He puts forward a question while rubbing his forehead with his hand.

"9:00 am, Sir!" Allen replies in a low worried voice.

"No! We are not going tomorrow. Cancel the tickets!" He suddenly states decisively.

"But Mr. Maxwell! … " He tries to speak further but Mr.Maxwell bursts into screaming aloud full of anger, losing his temper.

"I said we are not going… Didn't you get it! I don't want to listen BUT anymore!"

Allen keeps silent and doesn't react to his violent behavior which leads Mr Maxwell to react with a calm low voice after inhaling a deep relaxing breath.

"Listen, Allen! I really love my daughter, Robin. I know I wanted to keep her away from that criminal, mafia guy, that Heartless just for the reason that I thought that he is a killer! I thought that he is the murderer of my one and only lovely friend … (Robin turns her eyes at him with wet fillings in them) But I came to know that I was wrong. I am sure that I was wrong. That's why I will solve the mystery myself by staying here and I will soon find out the real murderer."

"Mr. Maxwell, I never did anything against your command nor will I. If you don't want to go, I will not insist you to do so. I am going to cancel the tickets as well as per your command! Thank you, Sir. Have a peaceful night." Allen replies softly within a noble accent.

After he has cut the call, Mr. Maxwell turns his eyes at Robin.

"I knew that! I knew you were not cruel. You were just angry over his attempt. It was obviously a misunderstanding which led you to act so." She speaks softly while smiling pleasantly.

"But the question here is why did he want to take the suitcase if he was actually saving you?" He speaks again in a low voice. She becomes astonished and begins giving slight nods as if she is thinking the reason.

"But we will soon know!" He adds further.

They reach his apartment where Mrs. Maxwell greets them with love and delight. Robin is shown her room after they have taken dinner. Every time, when she lies down and closes her eyes, she sees Tiger's face within her eyelids and hears his words in her ears "Yes! I am with you! Everywhere, every time, always, forever!"

She soon falls asleep whereas Mr. Maxwell explains the entire story to his wife at midnight, before he falls asleep.

Early in the morning, when she wakes up and goes out of her room, she finds Mr & Mrs Maxwell taking breakfast and she joins them with a blissful smile.

"Where does he live?" He abruptly asks.

Robin tries to memorize, "I… I don't know."

"Then how will we find him?" He becomes a bit worried.

"I remember the address of his friend's house, Saim. I hope he will help us."

"Okay! So where does he live?" He asks once again.

"Bursledon!" She replies calmly.

"What? We will reach there in two and a half hours. Well! get ready after breakfast. We will head to Bursledon." He commands readily.

She says a lot of thanks to them for such a kind help whereas Mrs Maxwell greets him with a lot of prayers and love as she is already inspired by her personality. Mr. Maxwell promptly calls Allen to book seats for the train to Berge to reach as soon as possible and they luckily leave Berge in the afternoon.
