Tuni, Dev, and Aalo started searching for a person named Nemo. Later, Tuni managed to find information on about fifty individuals named Nemo.
Seeing so many names, Dev whispered mockingly into Bipin's ear, "People these days have such ridiculous names." Bipin smiled faintly the moment he heard this. He fell silent as Aalo glanced their way, but Dev burst into loud laughter the instant he saw her . Seeing Dev, the Aalo smiled faintly. Aalo signaled Dev to stay quiet.
Nayan asked Alo, "Now we have to find out which one of them is the real person we are looking for."
Aalo replied to Nayan, "It's quite simple: first, we need to figure out which of them was between 32 and 40 years old. The diary mentions that, according to Pushpakar, the person who told him about the village folklore spoke to him when he was just a child—and generally, children are considered to be between 5 and 13 years old. Then, we need to find out where each of them was living during that age range."
Tuni agreed with Aalo's suggestion.
A few moments later, a knock was heard at the office door. Aalo immediately said, "Come in."
Seeing Aalo's haste, Dev realized that this case had made her restless. Dev was concerned about Aalo, for he knew just how important this case had become to her.
And why wouldn't it be? After all, they had never encountered a case like this before.
Middle-aged man entered the office, looking very tired. And upon seeing Dev, he smiled and gestured to Dev, saying, "I brought the food." Nayan looked at Bipin and he looked at Nayan. Both of them, looking at each other, realized that this man was familiar to them, but they couldn't recognize who the man was. Dev saw them and said, "This is my elder brother." Then he walked over and took the food.
Bipin and Nayan immediately recalled attending Dev's brother wedding at Dev's house a few years ago. Tuni smiled faintly and said, "It's been a long time since we last met. How are you?"
He nodded and replied, "I'm well." Then, looking at Dev, he said, "Alright, I'll take my leave then."
A short while after Dev's brother left, Tuni announced that she had found Nemo. Dev asked, "Are you sure this is the right guy—Nemo?" Tuni replied, "Yes. He is 34 years old. He came to Downhill with his mother 27 years ago and has lived there with his mother ever since. However, he lives alone now because his mother passed away last year. There is no information about where he lived before that."
Nayan said, "There is no doubt that this man is Nemo—the one we were looking for."
Bipin said, "Phew! So, our search has finally come to an end."
Dev said to himself, "Does the game end here, or has the real game not even begun yet?"
