November Story (நவம்பர் ஸ்டோரி)

Sir...

-Hello. -Hello.

Is it done?

It's done.

SUGAN WRITER

Finish me off. Just kill me.

Kill me once and for all

instead of torturing me like this.

Say that again? Who is torturing whom?

Have a heart.

She is suffering because of you.

Fine, you don't have to understand.

Isn't she your daughter?

You and your father stay together, right?

Can't you guys come together?

Stalin...

you have made this a habit.

Two marriages and a registration are waiting outside.

Sir, he'll be here soon.

Come on! This is not the way I wanted to start my day.

I know everything!

All of you are trying to sell off my house.

Wait! Let Sudar come back.

How can you say I don't understand?

Let Sudar come home.

Don't you know who this is?

Yet you make him wait like this.

Do you think we are jobless here?

Come on. She would have also done the same thing.

How would you know? How'd you know if Sudar would do the same?

No use discussing that. Anu must be waiting there for you.

Fine, how long before your father reaches here?

I won't go!

-I won't go! -Do as you wish.

-You get out! Get out! -You deal with your daughter.

I hate seeing all your faces. It's all because of her.

It's all because of her!

Let her come home. Wait and watch what I do to her.

I won't go anywhere!

I tried my best, Anu. He refuses to come.

Sorry, Anu. I don't know what else to say.

Your father won't let you sell that house.

I'm leaving for the office. Meet you there.

Well...

Dad is not coming.

The registration is off.

Sorry for all the trouble.

Don't mind what happened.

That registrar, that's his nature. He's hot-headed.

Focus on convincing your father. Don't worry about that buyer.

I'll talk to him. He will definitely listen to me.

Worst case, if your father doesn't agree,

don't worry. There are other ways to sell the house.

I'll let you know.

Don't you worry. Okay?

-Okay. I'll take care of it. -Fine, I shall hang up now.

-Sir, sir... -I'm helpless.

Sir, I took this contract believing you'll help me.

You must have been careful.

The fault is yours. I think you'll lose this contract.

Don't say that, sir. I'll ensure there are no more issues.

That's because the worst has already happened.

-Leave me out of this. -Sir...

I made it crystal clear to somehow bring him there.

Do you have any idea how embarrassing it was for me?

He refused outright. What could I do?

I've invested my own money in this contract.

Someone hacked the software.

That overgrown giant is yelling inside.

I'll lose this contract even if a single FIR is lost.

Even if a single FIR file is hacked,

then see what I do to that fellow Malar!

-Such a cheapskate... -Excuse me.

Save me, Anu.

He keeps harping that he invested his own money in this contract.

-Where is he hiding? -He's here.

Welcome, your highness!

I had my doubts when your quote was so less.

That's why their work is so pathetic, sir.

They think a few computers are enough to begin a start-up.

Sir, trusting them with this work is a waste of time.

I have no idea what to do.

Suddenly the server crashed, and all systems froze.

I tried reviving them...

I saw this coming!

-She will rectify it in 10 minutes. -10 minutes, my foot!

She looks like she's doing nothing.

Who dares to hack a police station CCTV?

We've got only five minutes maximum.

Then our software will fail, and the FIR files can be easily hacked.

Do something.

Sir, just a minute.

Where are you going?

-She's going... -Will you follow her everywhere?

This is a manual hacking device.

Someone has come in here and set it up.

What this device basically does is

it allows them to connect to our network and then our router.

Through data entry systems, it helps the hacker access our supercomputer.

So, they have tried to access our supercomputer using this device.

Let that be. Do we know who the thief is?

The thief?

Let me explain in a way you'd understand, sir.

Say, a thief breaks into a house

and steals all the jewellery from the cupboard.

How would you find him?

We'll nab the prime suspects.

We'll check all the jewellery and pawn shops in that locality.

If we find any fingerprints,

we'll crosscheck it with those in the most-wanted list.

Now, imagine if the thief tries to steal from outside the window,

and he couldn't reach the jewels.

He leaves without stealing.

How would you find him now?

If nothing is stolen, then there won't be any proof.

Then how can we find him?

Exactly.

So, you can catch him only if he comes back to steal.

It's quite similar, sir.

We must wait for him to come back.

Wait.

Let that be.

He came here to install that device, didn't he?

It must be recorded in the CCTV, right?

CCTV, right?

-Please check it. -But it got corrupted.

Sir, don't worry. My friend can recover the lost footage from it.

Who was that? You, right?

-Not me. -Jerk!

He'll recover it, sir.

By the time they hack again,

we cannot recover the footage.

Someone sneaked in here like a mouse

It'll be tough to trace them.

We must let them come to us and then catch them.

In the language of police,

"luring the accused and trapping him."

Do you get it now?

-Let that be. Listen to me-- -Mukilan, let's not argue.

If you can find him, then try catching him.

If the "mouse" sneaks in again, it must not escape.

That's very important.

Okay, sir.

Until the hacker is caught,

they say data entry officials must not work.

But they want to do a test run of the website in 15 days.

We can hire more data entry workers to complete the work.

But then I'll have to pay them too. I'll be left with nothing.

Anu, I am talking to you.

So far, which year's FIRs have been fed?

1999.

When are we supposed to upload it online?

On the 16th.

I have an idea.

I guess he will hack again on the 16th.

Before that, upload the FIR files from 1989 to 2009

to the main server.

The current files

up to 2018, upload them to the backup server.

But why?

When someone's taking such a risk

coming here to flick one FIR out of so many,

then he must be desperate for that file.

We cannot guess which one, out of these lakhs of FIRs, he needs.

But, comparatively, the chances are less for it to be an old FIR

because you can find a copy of old FIRs anywhere.

He must be looking for a recent FIR

because, as of today, it can only be found here.

That's why I'm not taking a risk.

Fine.

I'll do as you say.

After a lot of struggle, I've bagged this contract.

I don't want any problem by the time this is done.

Careful. Please.

Why so many calls?

What's so urgent?

A contract that I got by investing my own money.

She's even mocking the SI.

-Who? -Anu.

I'm worried.

There was a hacking incident today morning at the office.

CCTV footage is also gone.

Please help me recover the footage somehow.

We can then nab the culprit.

It's a cakewalk. I got this.

Thanks, dude.

One tea, please.

Next, novelist Ganesan will share a few words.

Only two people in the world, throughout the day,

think about murdering people.

One is a murderer, the other is a crime novelist.

There is only one difference.

The murderer thinks of doing it; the author writes a story out of it.

And that brings me to my next story...

Imai illa Vizhigal .

Thank you.

Ganesan...

you have early-onset Alzheimer's.

You are at the second stage.

Slowly your memories will start fading.
