In Senti Town,

Near the small bonfire, seated around Kunal along with his local group of friends, they had a conversation about his return from the city called Punchnama, which is one hour from Senti, where he recently completed his studies and started working as a psychiatrist in Seva Hospital.

Meanwhile!

"Did you know about the house located on Street 12; Line 04, known to be Uncle George's residency?" asked Kunal.

With skeptical concern, they responded, "Yes!" while looking at each other, Immediately, the tragedy that happened there flashed in their minds.

According to them!

A girl tried to kill her father while he was going to bathe. She never used to talk to anyone. Later, one day, her dead body was found in the backyard of her home.

The entire town went into fear. In the same lane, many died afterward, which all started occurring after her father was reported missing.

Since then, people started evacuating from the vicinity, and it continued.

The cops started their inquiry on the other side. Even today, the mystery behind it has not been revealed or solved, according to police sources.

They said it with fear!

But after having a serious discussions among themselves, at Kunal's request, the bonfire gang decided to chase down the mystery.

Near George's residency, in the dark, with torches in the hand...

In front of the foyer, Kunal and his gang stood near the backside of the entryway. Yellow barricades appeared as they moved in, squeezing through the edges carefully and trundling barefoot. Kunal saw a series of handwritings on the wall in a left-corner room. It read:

HELL IS A HOBBY. KILLING IS A PASSION.

YOU ARE ENTERING INTO YOUR DEATH.

I LAUGH AT YOUR CRYING TO STAY ALIVE.

BURNING THE SKIN MAKES ME RELEASE THE BONES FROM THE BODY PRISON...

Seeing this, panic arose in the gang, but Kunal remained stable. He thought it might be a hobby to scare someone. Searching in and around for evidence, they found an effigy.

The Boiling Water moment!

One day, when Kunal Rajesh Kumar was working in his hospital, he received a patient named Rose Ruth Mathew. She talked about her obsessive-compulsive disorder developing over time and her inability to control it. It began when she saw her pedophilic father plucking chicken feathers and boiling the chicken to remove the skin more easily and then turning it into pieces.

This process made her uncomfortable since childhood. She tried to understand it as a something simple but never overcame it.

On listening, Kunal prescribed some medications and told her to visit twice a week.

Later, he observed that the problem was having a severe impact on her and tried to meet her again and again.

The series of murders...

According to Senti Town Inspector Keshav Pandiyan, police found two human skeletons in an effigy near a dump yard in Gandhi Nagar Colony.

In the police statement, they said: The victim, once targeted, would be followed by someone of the same age, made unconscious, and then their bodies were thrown into extreme boiling water. The entire process was handled by a single person.

Maybe a psychopath, and they speculate that person does not belong to Senti Town.

Meanwhile!

Street 12 reported the same kind of situation again in the town, and it continued...

When George found his daughter Mary Rose dead in this backyard, he reported it the police. In response, the police arrived at the spot. After collecting all the evidence, they concluded that she was responsible for all the deaths in the town.

But later, they confessed that the previous statement was proved false, the killer is still unknown.

Later, the police found that the father of Mary Rose - that is, George - had suffered health issues and passed away due to the fear, of horrible incidents happening in the town. They said: "After the tragic event in this home, Mary's father hid himself and later died."

Back to the Residency...

"Did you hear that sound, like water is boiling somewhere near?" Kunal whispered.

(Silence remained... still more silence)

A little later,

Joseph found a picture of a girl.

Kunal: Let me have a look!

Joseph: Here you go...

Kunal: Who is she?

Sunil: Mary Rose George, I think.

Kunal: What! Does her father have two daughters?

Joseph: No.

Kunal: Then what about Rose Ruth Mathew?

Sunil and Joseph: Who is she?

Kunal: She is one of my patients. I thought this was her house.

Joseph: Do you remember her face?

Kunal: Yes.

Sunil: What the shit. Where are the rest of them?

Looking around,

Sunil yelled at Kunal and Joseph, saying they died in the boiling bathtub. "Oh my God, what just happened?" with tears rolling down, they all came outside.

Then who is Rose Ruth Mathew?

Joseph: Maybe she is the new psychopath in town.

(Wiping tears from his face)

Kunal: Let's find out.
