Dr Patil says that his assistant closed the dispensary after hearing the news of the theft. Byomkesh summarizes that the thief exchanged the injection bottle, which was the real reason for breaking into the dispensary.
Shakuntala is preggers. Byomkesh inquires about Shakuntala's character and finds that he had a regular visitor for last 5-6 months in Narmada Shankar, a rich landlord & a smooth talker. But police commissioner is sure that Shakuntala is above reproach. Narmada Shankar was with Shakuntala before the party started the previous evening & no one saw him leave.
It is also revealed that Deep gave Rs 12,000 to Dr Patil. Dr Patil had asked for a loan, but Deep had instructed his estate manager to treat it as a gift.

Byomkesh says suspects include Dev, who has inherited all of Deep's wealth. His wife Chandni, as Dev is dumb and after Deep, she will have effective control over the wealth.

Inspector Ratikant brings a lab report that says that the bottle handed over by Dr Patil had no poison in it. He theorizes that Dr Patil killed Deep with poison from a different bottle and handed a different bottle to the police to confuse them. Maybe he took money from Dev to kill Deep.
Dr Patil claims that he never got any money from Deep (He says Deep had suggested to give him money for a new car, but he never received any Rs 12,000 from him or from his manager), and he is deeply offended at the suggestion that he switched the bottles before giving it to the police.
Byomkesh visits Shakuntala's family & returns to her to say that he knows that her baby belongs to her lover & not her husband. He says that she is to give him Rs 250,000 for his silence & to give her acceptance by letter.
To Ratikant he conveys that Shakuntala has accepted her guilt and will reveal the name of her lover by post. For the same, Ratikant is required to remove her guard by 10 pm, to allow her to post the said letter. Byomkesh stays hidden at 10 pm to find 3 shots fired and Ratikant & Shakuntala dead.
Byomkesh reveals that Ratikant was Shakuntala's lover from her native place. But Ratikant's family was not well off & he had to take a police job. Meanwhile Shakuntala was married off to Deep. Ratikant followed Shakuntala to her new house & kept meeting her in secret. But then Shakuntala became preggers. Ratikant created the plan to remove Deep by orchestrating the burglary at Dr Patil's dispensary & getting him to administer the poison to Deep. Then Ratikant changed the bottle sent for analysis, so that Dr Patil is suspected.
Upon learning from Byomkesh that Shakuntala has agreed to reveal everything, Ratikant decided to kill Shakuntala and then was killed by the bullet of the police force that Byomkesh had assembled to arrest him
