    "story": "Bigger story: Nikhil inspects the hotel's service corridors with Meera, her lawyer and Divya present separately. A temporary stage brace snaps as he crosses, spilling varnish and red rose petals down his white shirt while a coordinator recognizes him as 'the dropout investigator' and security moves to remove him. His document case bursts open, but staff return every page, forcing him to accept that one bag carried on his body is the plan's weakest point. Divya uses the confusion to leave through the kitchen corridor, proving she can still approach the proof without being controlled. Nikhil changes no main decision: he obtains the room keys, divides originals among counsel and Divya, and schedules Aryan and Faisal in separate service rooms before guests arrive.",
