**Selvi:** "यहाँ बहुत सुंदर है... लेकिन कल जो मैंने देखा... मैं रात को सो नहीं पाई।" *(It is very beautiful here... but what I saw yesterday... I could not sleep at night.)* **Hunter:** "You're Selvi, right? I'm Detective Hunter. I need to ask you a few questions about what happened at the apple festival." **Selvi:** "एप्पल फेस्टिवल... हाँ, हाँ। वहाँ मैंने कुछ देखा था। एक आदमी... वो झाड़ियों में किसी को घसीट रहा था। मैंने फोटो भी ली, लेकिन..." *(Apple festival... yes, yes. There I saw something. A man... he was dragging someone into the bushes. I even took a photo, but...)* **Hunter:** "I'm sorry, I— I don't... Do you speak English?" **Selvi:** "मेरी अंग्रेजी अच्छी नहीं है... क्षमा कीजिए। मैं हिंदी में बोलती हूँ। वह रात अंधेरी थी, लेकिन मेरे कैमरे ने सब कुछ पकड़ लिया। यह देखिए..." *(My English is not good... forgive me. I speak in Hindi. That night was dark, but my camera caught everything. Look at this...)* **Hunter:** "I can't understand a word. Hindi? Is that Hindi?" **Selvi:** "हाँ, हिंदी। मैं भारत से हूँ। कृपया, यह फोटो देखिए— उस आदमी का चेहरा साफ़ है। वह डरावना आदमी है। मुझे डर लगता है कि वो मुझे भी..." *(Yes, Hindi. I am from India. Please, look at this photo— that man's face is clear. He is a frightening man. I am afraid that he might also...)* **Hunter:** "You keep pointing at the camera... is there something on there? A photo?" **Selvi:** "फोटो... हाँ, फोटो। यहाँ देखिए। वह आदमी लंबा था, काला जैकेट पहने हुए था। और वो जो उसके हाथ में था... वो एक रस्सी थी। मुझे यकीन है, वो किसी को ले गया।" *(Photo... yes, photo. Look here. That man was tall, wearing a black jacket. And what was in his hands... it was a rope. I am sure, he took someone away.)* **Hunter:** "Look, I want to help you, but I need you to speak English. Even a few words. *Black jacket*? Did you say black jacket?" **Selvi:** "काला जैकेट... ब्लैक जैकेट! हाँ! और एक लाल टोपी भी थी। वह आदमी बहुत ख़तरनाक लग रहा था। मैंने उसकी फोटो ली, लेकिन अब मुझे लगता है कि उसने मुझे भी देख लिया। क्या आप मेरी मदद करेंगे?" *(Black jacket... black jacket! Yes! And there was a red cap too. That man looked very dangerous. I took his photo, but now I think he saw me too. Will you help me?)* **Hunter:** "...Red hat. You said red hat. Wait, the missing woman from the gas station— her husband was wearing a red hat at the festival. What is it you're trying to tell me?!" **Selvi:** "कृपया, धीरे-धीरे... मुझे सब नहीं समझ आ रहा। मैं बस यह कहना चाहती हूँ कि मैंने सब कुछ कैमरे में कैद किया है। किसी को गुम होने से पहले— कृपया इसे देखिए।" *(Please, slowly... I am not understanding everything. I just want to say that I have captured everything in my camera. Before someone goes missing— please look at this.)* **Hunter:** *(sighs, rubbing his temples)* "I can feel that whatever you're saying is important, and that scares me more than I care to admit." **Selvi:** "डिटेक्टिव, कृपया... मैं हिल रही हूँ, देखिए मेरे हाथ। मुझे डर है। कल रात मैंने जो देखा, वह मैं किसी को बता नहीं पा रही। अगर वह आदमी जानता है कि मेरे पास फोटो है..." *(Detective, please... I am trembling, look at my hands. I am scared. What I saw last night, I am not able to tell anyone. If that man knows I have the photo...)* **Hunter:** "Okay... okay, hold on. Let me see the camera. Just— just hand it to me and let me look." **Selvi:** "हाँ... यह देखिए। यही फोटो है। उसका चेहरा, उसकी आँखें... वह मुझे घूर रहा है। और वो झाड़ियाँ— वहाँ कोई है, ज़मीन पर लेटा हुआ। देखिए ना, कृपया।" *(Yes... look at this. This is the photo. His face, his eyes... he is staring at me. And those bushes— someone is there, lying on the ground. Please look.)* **Hunter:** *(staring at the camera, quiet for a long moment)* "...Son of a— that's Henderson's property. That fence line— I know exactly where this is." **Selvi:** "हेंडरसन? आप उस जगह को जानते हैं? तो कृपया, कुछ कीजिए। शायद अभी भी समय है। मुझे लगता है कि जो व्यक्ति गुम है, वो वहीं है।" *(Henderson? You know that place? Then please, do something. Maybe there is still time. I think the person who is missing is right there.)* **Hunter:** "I'm calling this in right now. Don't move, don't go anywhere, and whatever you do— don't post that photo anywhere. I'm going to need you to—" **Selvi:** "कहाँ जाऊँगी? मैं यहीं रहूँगी। कृपया, सावधान रहिए।" *(Where would I go? I will stay right here. Please, be careful.)* **Hunter:** *(phone rings, glances at the screen)* "Hold that thought." *(answers)* "Hunter. ...Yeah. ...What? When? ...I'm on my way." **Selvi:** "क्या हुआ? आप जा रहे हैं? मुझे डर है..." *(What happened? You are leaving? I am afraid...)* **Hunter:** *(already standing, tucking the phone away, pausing at the edge of the table)* "I have to go. Someone else just disappeared. Stay here, don't leave until I send someone for you. I *will* come back for that camera." **Selvi:** "जल्दी आइएगा... कृपया।" *(Come back soon... please.)*
