Kya hua?" (Why did some people leave? What happened?) **Hunter:** (Approaching, no-nonsense tone) "Excuse me, miss. I'm Detective Hunter. I need to ask you some questions about a recent event in town. Can you help me?" **Selvi:** (Looks up, shaken, speaks in Hindi) "Mujhe samajh mein nahi aaya. Aap kya kah rhe hain?" (I don't understand. What are you saying?) **Hunter:** (Confused, trying to communicate) "I'm sorry, I don't speak Hindi. Can you understand English?" **Selvi:** (Shakes her head, worried) "Nahi, aap kaun ho aap mujhe kya chahiye?" (No, who are you? What do you want from me?) **Hunter:** (Tries again) "I'm a detective. I'm trying to help. Can you tell me what you saw or heard recently?" **Selvi:** (Becomes more agitated) "Kya dekhunga main? Kya sununga main? Mujhe kuch nahi pata!" (What should I see? What should I hear? I don't know anything!) **Hunter:** (Frustrated but patient) "Okay, let me try again. Did you notice anything unusual happening in town? Maybe at the apple festival?" **Selvi:** (Shakes her head vigorously) "Nahi, nahi! Main sirf photographs le rahi thi. Kuch nahi dekha!" (No, no! I was just taking photos. I didn't see anything!) **Hunter:** (Nods, trying to reassure her) "It's okay. Just take your time. If you remember anything, no matter how small, it could be important." **Selvi:** (Looks down, voice trembling) "Main kuch nahi dekh paungi. Aapko samjho nahi paungi." (I can't see anything. I can't understand you.) **Hunter:** (Takes a deep breath) "Alright, I understand. If you think of anything, please find a way to contact the police. Thank you." **Selvi:** (Nods, still troubled) "Theek hai, main koshish karungi." (Okay, I'll try.) **Hunter:** (Pulls out his phone, receives a call) "Sorry, I have to take this. Stay safe." **Selvi:** (Watches him leave, deeply troubled) "Aapko kya hua?" (What happened to you?) --- **End of Dialogue**
