Two days later, DCP Khan was in front of Khushi, who has called each and every person related to the case.

DCP Khan looked down and told in low tone, "What a disappointment Khushi! You are my best officer having best team but still you're unable to crack this case?"

She smiled and replied back, "Aap hi kehte hain na sir, kabhi kabhi cards mein panch ikke hote hain," at which he nodded in affirmation and  she continued, "yahan bhi hain pehchanenge?"

"This isn't a time for puzzles ACP, tell me directly," he replied back at which she retorted, "but sometimes it becomes monotonous when we reveal the cards simply in rummy"

She grinned, "let me clear you what happened that night from the starting"

----

"Hey Arnie! I have a night party at my home for my birthday and you have to come for sure... No ifs and buts I am going to listen," she warned Arnav.

Arnav replied with a lame smile, "hey birthday gal! You're so sweet... How can I say no to you. Sure I will be there..."

He gave her a friendly hug, "What's the time by the way?"

"Its 9 at my house," she winked.

----

"And who is that she?," DCP Khan asked.

Khushi smiled and called Asha Tai, "Tai! Leke aiye use"

DCP was shocked to witness, "if I am not wrong she is Kate, Jack's girlfriend who was supposed to be Pune, at her parents home"

"Exactly! Jab Jack hi Pune nahi gaya to use le jane wali Kate kyu jayegi?," Khushi asked the simple question.

Arnav who was shocked to witness her as murderer said, "Why did you do this to Sheetal and me?"

"Because Sheetal has told her.... Her bestie, you might be knowing Mr. Raizada," Khushi replied on her behalf with shrug of shoulders.

Khan shook Khushi, "are you insane? Do you want to tell us that Sheetal herself planned her own murder?"

"No, but Mr. Raizada's," Khushi replied.

DCP bombarded at Khushi, "Be clear ACP!"

"Sir!," She saluted him and continued, "Kate and Sheetal are best friends, if I am not wrong"

"True," replied Jack.

"And that night was NOT Kate's birthday," Khushi asked every character of the case.

"Yes, it was not," answered Jack shocked for Arnav.

Arnav intervened, "but she told me..."

"No she lied," replied Khushi and tip-toed towards Kate held her jaw tight, "what a clean idea Kate...now will you admit or should I tell my team to...," Khushi warned her at which she replied, "No please don't, I will admit"

"That's like a civilian not murderer," grinned Khushi when Arnav was waiting for the time when Kate was going to confess the truth of Sheetal's murder.
