David: Uh, I was preparing for the ensuing day’s surgeries when Mukul entered and we
started chatting right away.

Captain: Don’t you have an assistant?

David: That’s my style of working, I only need assistants when it’s a complicated surgery

Captain: According to the forensics report, you and Mukul fought………...

David: TALKED

Captain: (glared) oops…..yeah….TALKED, the area was cleansed immediately after that,
why?

David: We were talking in the Operation Theatre, it is routinely sterilised every night and so
that day was no exception. Medical Laws (shrugs)

Interrogator: Excuse me, my turn to ask. “Did you kill him?”

David: No.

Interrogator: Ah! If you had answered in affirmative, I would have had you!

Captain: (ignoring) so once you and Mukul fought

David: TALKED

Captain: (smiling) absolutely ….TALKED, why did you didn’t take your car?

David: I visited a bar, The Social

Captain: Nobody saw you there. Not even in CCTV.

David: The Social was terribly jam-packed on Sunday. I spent my whole time in a corner
enjoying (winks) with Cheryl, she was a real beauty-created in Heaven. (smiles at the
Interrogator again looks at his watch and smiles- Interrogator reciprocates his smile)

Captain: You said you took a cab from the club. First, how did you book one? In step with the
report, you left your phone at your workplace.

David: I didn’t notice my phone missing, till I was outside the Social. Thus I used Cheryl’s
phone to book a cab for myself.

Captain: Do you have Cheryl’s phone no. So we could talk to her?

David: No, Sir

Captain: Currently, you have got no alibi. We need someone to establish you are not the
murderer. Can you recall the cab’s number or anything?

David: No, I was super drunk on LIT (smiling)

Interrogator: LIT (Surprised).
