The scene shifts to a dark room with all curtains and no place for light. Here appears Manas again. This time, with a knife he opens the door and a woman whose mouth is taped is locked there. Here he comes with a knife. He slowly comes near the woman and whispers with a soft and spooky voice, 'don't you worry. I will make sure to make it as painless as possible. I don't know why I need to do this every freaking month. Please forgive me." He makes a deep cut on her throat. But she doesn't utter a sound. It was like there was no struggle at all. Her breath leaves her body slowly. Not after a minute Manas sucks her blood like a thirsty monster.
Introducing another new character, Daniel. A police officer scratching his head with tons of murder cases that were taking place every month. He is quite sure that each murder on15th of every month is a job of a single murderer. This time there was the case of a woman who was killed. Believe your instinct my dear readers, it was the case of same woman who was killed by our Manas. The woman as the lecturer in Mingshe University, the university where Erica was studying. Daniel with his team goes to Mingshe university for further interrogation and he questions every individual who could be possible suspects for this case. Here he meets Erica. With a glance he develops a deep crush on Erica. But acting as a man, he questions Erica too. The only teacher with whom Erica had started to feel a bit comfortable and friendly was killed and thrown. This was really not tolerable by Erica. She asks Daniel about any other clues, but there was not any clue of that case till now. Erica decides to interrogate this case herself without informing anybody. She investigates about Ms. William9the lady killed) and comes to know that she took a cab on the way back to home. Then the cab left her on a post office. She goes to the post office.
When she reaches there, she saw a man with black suit with a cigarette between his fingers. Here our Erica is kind of extrovert. She quietly sits beside him and yes that man is indeed our Manas. He doesn't give any attention to Erica and keeps smoking. There was a minute of silence in cold and dark night. Then the silence breaks with the sharp voice of teddy, "Hey, don't you feel cold?" He gives an strange look and again continues smoking. "Hey, why are you all alone here?" Erica says. Then he replies with a deep, seductive yet tender voice, "I am meant to be alone. Then he stands up suddenly, Erica catches his hands. His hands suddenly feel s smooth comfort and warmth, his eyes opens up wide as if he got a shock. Erica says, "your hands are so cold and numb." He still was in a shock and was continuously looking at Erica as if he had found something he cherished a lot. Erica asks him if they can be friends but Manas replies coldly, "you better stay away from me or you will regret." She gives a big smile and said, "I never regret on my choices". Then suddenly Erica's phone rings and she moves away for a a second to answer it. When she comes back he is gone. The only thing she says is, What a weirdo.
