Manickam, where are we going?
Down below, Sir. Please watch your step.
How did you find this place?
Actually, by fluke. I stopped my bike here. The wheel was wobbling. After setting it, just stood near the parapet to catch my breath. I glanced down and saw the darkness below. Thought it a likely place to investigate.
So what did you find?
I saw the ground disturbed. Closer look yielded some anomalies. I called to inform you.
You did right. Let’s see.
Sir, I dread what we may find. Can’t face them.
True. But we have to do our duty!

May be they are out to find something startling. May be some unmarked grave that may solve unsolved mystery.
