There was pin drop silence in the room. Vishwa was stunned. His eyes were locked with tears. He couldn't let his tears roll down his eyes, after all he is the honest Vishwanath Ravichandran. He couldn't imagine himself as a ruthless killer.
He looked at Rajavel. His eyes spoke the words which were choking in his throat.
Rajavel understood what Vishwa wanted.
Rajavel spoke.
'You wanted to make sure all culprits and wrong doers are punished under the law as the lorry driver who killed your mom and dad, escaped from the clutches of law. That was the reason why you joined the Police department and you had narrated this reason many times to all of us. But, the criminals and cases you handled in your career got away from the punishments you wanted them to suffer. Death! This affected your conscience. Every single day in your professional career and interaction with criminals and crime scenes went deep inside your mind and consciousness. This problem with the law and your dissatisfaction with justice created a New character. Unfortunately this character is not the savior of justice. He is the mere opposite of what Vishwanath Ravichandran is all about.
Honest - Dishonest
Intelligent - Just Brutal Force
Calm - Filled with Anger.
Everything right from reactions to thoughts two diametrically opposite characters' Rajavel looked at Dr.Sethuraman.
'Medically, we call this condition as DEPERSONALISATION DISORDER. The personality which the patient inherit will be totally different from what they are in reality. It may be created due to various reasons. In your case, the frustration you faced for being honest in your life, your dad and mom faced while leading their life with you, all lead to a imaginary character, a totally different from what you are. No one knew he existed. He don't interact with anyone. He just comes and engulfs you and starts his ruthless killings. Since he doesn't know anyone, he have no enemies. He chooses his targets Randomly. No enemies. Hence the name,  Ajatshatru. Unfortunately this time Ajatshatru decided to challenge you. The reason why he was revealed to people who never knew about his existence! When you complained of haziness and frequent fatigue, initially I thought of you being under depression due to your confrontation with Shruthi. Your Panic attack made me to proceed with the hypnotherapy procedures. That introduced me to the man Ajatshatru! You disclosed the sub conscious thoughts during the therapy. I briefed about the problem to Rajavel' Doctor looked at Rajavel
'Evidence No 1. I remembered the thumb which caught me from behind while I entered Arun's house. I started searching for details on the thumb. I learned about MURDERERS THUMB. As per palmistry, the person possessing this variant of a thumb will have an aggressive and rage full character. I am not a firm believer of astrology and things. But this time, astrology proved right' and Rajavel pointed to the right thumb of Vishwa. Vishwa looked at the thumb as his hands were shaking. Rajavel showed him the selfie they both took where Vishwa's thumb's up pose clearly depicted it.
'Evidence No 2. The CCTV footage we picked up from the cafe showed Pavithra willingly getting into a Maruti car. Why she went in willingly? Because she knew the person who had called upon her. The Maruti car, TN 10 AL 5546 belonged previously to Ravichandran Subramanian. We can also call him, your Dad! Now it belongs to Vishwanath.
Evidence No.3 All through the three murders, Two cell phone numbers were active in the locality. One belonged to Commissioner Sankaran. Another belonged to Vishwanath Ravichandran. Unfortunately, Ajatshatru forgot that he is after all an imaginary person and he easily took his mobile, sorry your mobile along with him all over!
Evidence No.4 , During all these years, whenever Ajatshatru had the peak of his anger and frustration he used to dig graves. This was his practice for many years. He slowly and steadily, knowingly or unknowingly, dig a pathway to a barren vacant land belonging to Vishwanath Ravichandran from the home which you live. But all these are for the records sir. We need you back. For that we need you to fight for one last time in your life. Fight him. Call him out. Talk to him. You need to sir. We cannot leave some magical human to take you.' Rajavel said as Dr.Sethu locked the pathway and they both left the room.
Vishwa was all alone. He looked around the room once again. He kept on staring at the mirror. Slowly the mirror image turned from a disturbed one to a cunning smile.
'Finally we meet Sir. I thought we would never get a chance to meet!' Ajatshatru said
'How did you come over? I never imagined even once in my life to kill anyone. How can my conscience become so cruel, killing random people.' Vishwa said
'You never wanted? Come on sir. There's no one better in this world who could understand you and your thoughts than me. You wanted to kill the lorry driver. The Advocate. The Judge. The Cop. Every single person who was involved in the case. Yes. They died. Unfortunately after a long time.' He smiled
'You killed them? I wanted only Justice to prevail. Not to Kill Random persons' Vishwa shouted
'This was the justice you dreamt of. I dreamt of. Rather, We dreamt of. But , every single time, killing someone gave me a pleasure. It slowly became an obsession. Unfortunately, we parted ways with our ideologies and our identities got split' Ajatshatru replied casually.
'Get out of my sight. Get out! GET OUT!' Vishwa shouted and threw a flower vase at the mirror and it cracked into pieces. The clinging sound made Vishwa's head go bizzare and he was dangling in pain. As he was about to fall down, fainting from the pressure, Rajavel and Doctor sprang open the room and caught him up!
'Let's take him back to the hospital for more vigorous treatment Velu' Sethu said as they both carried him all the way to the car.
Rajavel had decided what to write in the case report.

Ending with an Epilogue!
