**Hunter:** "Excuse me, ma’am? The barista said you were out near the old apple orchards yesterday evening. I’m Detective Walker." **Selvi:** *[Startled, she clutches her camera strap tighter]* "Ji?" **Hunter:** "The orchards. Trees. Apples." *[He mimes a tree with his hands, feeling foolish]* "Did you see anything unusual? A grey van, maybe?" **Selvi:** *[Her eyes widen, breathing hitching]* "Main... maine uneh dekha tha. Wahan pedon ke neeche. Woh ladki ro rahi thi, aur woh aadmi... uske haath mein kuch chamak raha tha." *[I... I saw them. There beneath the trees. That girl was crying, and that man... something was glinting in his hand.]* **Hunter:** *[Frowning deeply]* "I don't—I don't speak Hindi. Do you know English? English?" **Selvi:** "Nahi... English nahi." *[No... No English.]* *[She points a shaking finger at the LCD screen of her camera]* "Dekhiye. Darawana hai. Bahut darawana." *[Look. It is scary. Very scary.]* **Hunter:** "Photo? You have a photo?" *[He leans over the small cafe table, squinting at the screen]* "Let me see." **Selvi:** *[She clicks a button, bringing up a grainy, low-light image of the tree line]* "Yahan. Parchhayi mein. Kya aapko dikh raha hai?" *[Here. In the shadow. Can you see it?]* **Hunter:** "Damn it, it’s too dark. Is that a person?" *[He taps the table, frustrated]* "I need to know what time this was taken. Time? Watch? Clock?" **Selvi:** *[She looks at his wrist, then her own]* "Samay? Shaam ko. Jab suraj dhal raha tha." *[Time? In the evening. When the sun was setting.]* **Hunter:** "I’m not getting through." *[His phone buzzes loudly in his pocket. He pulls it out and answers sharply]* "Walker... Yeah... Another one? By the lake? Okay, I’m moving." **Selvi:** *[Sensing his urgency, she looks panicked]* "Aap ja rahe hain? Lekin woh aadmi... agar woh wapas aa gaya toh?" *[You are going? But that man... what if he comes back?]* **Hunter:** *[Standing up and putting away his phone]* "I have to go. Look, stay here. Don't move." *[He holds a hand up, palm out]* "Stay." **Selvi:** "Mujhe samajh nahi aa raha... please, madad kijiye." *[I don't understand... please, help.]* **Hunter:** "Just... drink your coffee. I'll be back with a translator."
