I don't understand anything. Where did the skeleton come from? You explain it a little.
"I will explain later. There is a base on the edge of the lake. Let's splash the water on the neck and face with the lake water. Then the brain will be clear."
The colonel extinguished the torch. Then he led the way. There is also a broken stone base. Mr.Haldar washed his hands and face with water and splashed the water on his neck.
Then he said, "Where are my shoes and torch?"
The colonel smiled. Then he said, "You see, the water has cleansed your brain."
Mr. Haldar's shoes were found after much searching on the floor of a broken temple on the other side. But the torch was not found. It is understood that there was once a building in this direction.
When asked by the colonel he said, "Yes, here was the capital of Kankagarh. Now it's just a jungle. Anyway, not here anymore. Let's go back to the bungalow."
Mr.Haldar let out a breath and said, "Yes...., I lost the torch. It must have been the work of that saint."
"The saint didn't have time to take your torch. Come tomorrow morning and look for it," said the colonel.
We had gone a little way when suddenly a flash of torch light came from behind. Then I got Dipu's response.
Colonel, I am Dipu.
Mr. Haldar turned around and said, "Come, nephew, come. Uncle, nephew, we will return home together."
Dipu came running. He said excitedly, "I saw a light in the forest a while ago. So I was out. I was about to enter the forest when I heard a loud laugh. I lit the torch and saw.... ."
Skeleton?
Yes, skeletons.
A sword was seen in Dipu's hand.
Picking it up, he said, "After a while, the skeleton disappeared from my sight. I couldn't believe my eyes, Colonel Sir. But I was getting anxious. While I was thinking what to do, I saw the light of a torch on the edge of the lake. I heard you talking. The light. Did you come here too?"
Yes, and we also saw the skeleton.
Mr. Haldar shook his head vigorously and said, "But I didn't. I saw a saint. I was following him."
Saint! What do you say?
"Yes. I was following him last night too. He was digging the ground with his sword there in the temple. He got my response and left. I saw him again after hiding today. He was not digging the ground today. He had a bag on his back. It is not easy to run with a bag. What should be in the bag? Can you tell Colonel sir?"
There may be skeletons.
Dipu said, "So is that Adinath's skeleton?"
I can't say. Maybe. But not staying here anymore. Let's go back to the bungalow. Dipu, you also come with us. You will return home with your uncle.
Dipu raised his legs and smiled and said, "The book written by grandfather is true. But who is that saint?"
I said, "Whoever he is, he stole the skeleton from your vault. He also discovered where the skull was buried. Then he put the head on the body. Look, it's clear whether I believe in ghosts or not."
Mr.Haldar said, "Why didn't I see the skeleton?"
The colonel said, "I have not seen him. But I have heard of him."
Yes.
There is no light in Dak Bungalow again. The strangest thing is that the lock of our house was broken. I went to the kitchen and saw that the main switch was off as before. I turned it on. The light came on. When I returned home, I saw a terrible situation. The colonel is fixing his bag.
Mr. Haldar muttered, "Thief, thief. Saint is thief."
Dipu and I took turns fixing the beds.
The colonel laughed a little and said, "The thief is very stupid. He should have understood that I am not one to leave what he came to look for in the bungalow. In fact, at first he understood that the thing was with Mr. Haldar. So he was afraid to kill him. Because we were leaving, he ran away. But a thing came into his head that even after threatening to kill, the thing was not found. Then it must not be with Mr. Haldar. It is probably with me. So he came and attacked the bungalow in our absence."
The colonel looked at the floor. Then he said, "The thief came barefoot. There are clear marks on the floor. There is wet soil. He came on the easy road. Anyway, It's 3 in the morning. Jayant, you go to the kitchen and get me a cup of coffee. I need coffee now."
Dipu said, "Let me help you."
Raghu is very clever. Everything is fixed in the kitchen. I made the coffee. Dipu stood like a watchman with a torch in his hand. His expression shows that he is very scared. It's about getting. I got scared too. At such a time, seeing a living skeleton and listening to it in a hushed voice is a life-threatening experience. The Colonel is right. There is no end to the mysteries of nature. Beneath the light of civilization remains a darkness filled with mystery. While making coffee, I told Dipu about Mr. Haldar's vision.
Dipu tried to smile and said, "Detective Haldar must have some problem in his head."
I said, "The colonel has also problem."
I brought the coffee pot and cup on the tray. Dipu locked the kitchen. Entering the house, I saw Mr. Haldar giving the investigation report to the colonel in a strained voice. The private detective was getting stronger as he drank his coffee. Red spots on pants, shirts.
Mr. Haldar smiled and said, "Colonel sir said, the rope with which I was tied was not the rope for tying Ramu washerman's donkey. That's right. So I was wondering where the saint got the rope?"
After joking for a while with Mr. Haldar about Ramu and his donkey, Colonel Haldar suddenly became serious and said, "No Dipu, you should lie down this time. Your uncle has been through a lot of trouble. He needs to rest."
"Hmm."
Mr. Haldar stood up.
After they left we closed the door and turned off the light and went to bed.
The colonel said, "So Jayant, what you said."
Yes, the mystery is condensed. But was the cell, the thing the skeleton wanted?"
Yes, bronze cell.
What is there?
