The team arrived in Eskişehir in order to save Zeynep and Onur from the cruelty of the mafia. There was already much of chaos, and Taylan had appointed Arslan to quickly search for Zeynep and Onur, they wouldn't have been gone so far away. After we proceed to find them, we hear a explosion, we immediately went to check on the place, where the explosion happened, and there were people around and the exploded piles of the building, we proceeded to check the scene, and found out a burnt body of a middle aged man, with his hands chopped off, the victim was recognised as Eyüp Ayhan who was the Istanbul's most eminent businessman, we send the body for autopsy, we found a wooden sign on the crime scene which said "Cehennem Kapısı Sığınağı" which meant "Hell's Gate Hideout", we immediately recognised that this the was hideout of HG, but we were puzzled that how did the victim ended up here. We began by finding Ceren and inform her about her father's death. We found Ceren, however she was covered in blood, her whole clothes were, we asked her what happened, she tells us that she was knocked out by someone, and when she woke up, her clothes were covered in blood, we take her to the station, and interrogate her about her father's murder, she starts crying that her life has been going downhill, she is losing everyone she loves, she tells us that Eyüp was a great father, she then further says that after Mert betrayed her, her life was ruined already. We ask Ceren to change her clothes, and we move outside from there. We proceed to find more clues, Florin approaches us, he tells us that his sister Fiona David has been spotted at the crime scene, we immediately rush there, and found Fiona, we felt that she was getting rid of something, we yelled "Freeze" and she stopped whatever she was doing, we then take her to the station, and interrogate her about by getting rid of evidence, she denies that she was informed by someone, that her most precious thing was in that crime scene, and she went onto find it, we ask her if she knew anything about Eyüp, she mentions that she doesn't who he is, and it doesn't matters her. Taylan calls us and says that Zeynep had called him, and told him that she is fine, as managed to escape HG's trap, and now she is safe and sound at a motel, and Tierre knows about it. Following our conversation with Taylan, we found out a turn contract and we restored and it was a contract between Eyüp and Avtandil Gelashvili, which was signed in 2003. We were surprised that it was second time, that Avtandil knew about and died, we decide to call him at the station, not knowing the consequences, when he arrived, Arslan kicked his bodyguards out and slammed the door, and said that he had enough of Avtandil, we ask him about Eyüp, Avtandil starts laughing and says that he and Eyüp were old friends, often titled as "partners in crime", as he and Eyüp were the first two to establish the mob in 2010, Avtandil then walks out, and Arslan slams his hand on the desk. The autopsy results revealed out, that Eyüp was killed by cutting of the hands. At the precinct, we were discussing details, while we were discussing a certain object came flying and hit Arslan's left arm, which made him bleed, and he fainted.
Mid-investigation, when we were discussing details about the murder, a object came flying and hit Arslan's left arm, he was bleeding, however he didn't panic and said that these little problems doesn't makes him quit his job, and to stop the bleeding, he tore the sleeve of his black shirt, and knotted his arm with it, and we then proceeded to find some other clues, and find both Onur and Zeynep. When we move ahead, we found out some shouting noises, and we follow it, we reach to somewhere, and we see Zeynep and Matthew fighting, we were glad to see Zeynep, but we ask her, why she is fighting with Matthew, she tells us that when she escaped from the HG, she found Matthew, and got suspicious on him, because we already knew that he was hiding some sort of secret. We took him to the station, and interrogated if he knew anything about Eyüp, he starts sweating and says that he doesn't know, but Arslan forces him to speak out, he tells us that Eyüp was trying to interfere in their way, and we asked what way he is talking about, he says that Eyüp was interrupting and conspiring against the MI6 and he couldn't let him do that, it even reached to the point, where he threatened Matthew that he will vanish his whole family, and the reason why he was found near to the crime scene, he tells us that Eyüp was mainly spotted there. After our interrogation with him, Taylan notices that Arslan’s left arm, and ask him what happened, Arslan tells him about it, and he immediately asks him to get stitched, but he says it's fine, Merve approaches him and says that he should listen to Taylan, because she doesn't wants to lose him, she then held his arm and took him to the lab, where Eylül stitched him, and warned him that he shouldn't play these dangerous games with himself, with his both hands stitched, he could barely move them, Merve tells him to rest, but he says job comes first. After that, we proceeded to find other clues we got a feeling that Eyüp was suspicious and was probably hiding something. We found out a turn ID number, and when we deciphered it, it belonged to a certain Ketevan Abramashvili, we recognised her, as she was had been sentenced for murdering İpek Çukurova, we were fathomed that she had escaped, and went onto arrest her, however we spotted her nearby and went to interrogate her, she starts yelling and says that Eyüp was a bitch, who had ruined her life, we ask her to elaborate, she tells us that when she was sixteen, she and her older brother moved out to Turkey due to Russo-Georgian War, however when they reached to the immigration, her brother was deported to Russia where he was tortured. She tells us that they were orphaned when they were kids, we ask her what all this had to do with Eyüp, she tells us that Eyüp was their immigration officer, and was the one who had deported her brother, as he was the only person who remained for her in the world. We were extremely disgusted by Eyüp's act and promised that they would get justice. Following our conversation, we found out a strange message send to the victim, when we found his phone, we deciphered and it said "I am extremely ashamed to be your daughter", we knew Ceren send it, we proceed to interrogate her. She confesses that as a child, her father used to abuse her mother, and she had suffered a lot of abuse from him, and he even went on her, but her mother had protected her from the abuse of her father, and divorced him, she tells us that Eyüp was a drunkard who used to abuse his mother a lot, but then she divorced him, and went onto live in a peaceful life, but she couldn't forgive her father. At the precinct, we were discussing details, Cassandra tells us that she found Onur's belongings covered in blood.
Mid-investigation, Cassandra tells the duo that she has found Onur's belonging but they all were covered in blood, she handed us over them, which comprised of phone and watch covered in blood, we had send the blood for examine. When the results came, they were rather surprising, it was revealed that that Eylül had found two blood samples. One belonged to Onur, the other one belonged to Mert, we speculated that they might have got into a fight, but we were surprised that why would they get into a fight, however Eylül tells us that she found fingerprint on Onur's watch, which didn't belong to him, but to Avtandil. We were shook that how did Avtandil's fingerprints ended up on Onur’s belonging. We had no choice but to interrogate him. When we interrogate him, he tells us that he just found that watch, and thought it was his, because he had lost his, and he just threw it away, however he tells us that he witnessed the time when Mert was beating up Onur, we ask him why didn't he stop him, he mentioned it was none of his business. After our interrogation with Avtandil, we were pretty sure that it was Mert, who had beaten up Onur. As soon we say it, Fiona approaches us, she tells us that she has found something about Matthew, we ask her, but she tells us that we should ask him ourselves, when we arrive there, we witness Matthew shouting on his phone in pure Scouse accent, we ask him to drop the call, we ask him that he should really tell us about the suspicious stuff has been doing, he confesses that he has been conspiring against the HG, but he also personally met with Demeter, we ask him to tell Demeter's identity, he tells he can't risk his life. After we were done interrogating him, we proceeded to find other clues against the killer, however as soon our attention was directed towards someone standing at the door, the figure was wearing a hoodie, with the cap on the head, and had red cheeks, really couldn't figure who it was, but they disappeared in a second. Later, Merve approaches us she tells us that some weird person is being seen everywhere around the department, and we can't specify who it was. In the end, we had enough evidence to incriminate Fiona David for the murder. Upon admitting, Fiona says that Eyüp was one bitch, who deserved to die, she elaborates that four years ago, when in Romania, she was in a concert, however some time later, gunshots were being fired and there was panic among people, and all of them started running here and there. Fiona also started running, however she bumped into Eyüp, and he chloroformed her, when she woke up, she was tied up with shackles, with her clothes torn, and there was Eyüp, who was laughing and saying that the gunshot dual went amazing, Fiona figured it out it was Eyüp who had arranged it, however Eyüp said she didn't have enough power to defeat him, and kept her hostage, until he departed from Romania, before doing so he had ordered the shooters to cut Fiona’s finger, which they did so, and she cried in pain. All these four years, she yearned to take revenge, and when she finally arrived in Turkey, she started searching for Eyüp, and eventually found him, and confronted him, she grabbed a machete and sliced Eyüp's hands, and grabbed him to the HG's hideout so we could be suspicious on him.
After Fiona's confession, we decide to pay a visit to Taylan in his office, he says that HG is becoming more dangerous, and now getting out of the control, but how the hell we still haven't found the real identity of Demeter, and we say that we didn't have enough clues, however Taylan says that Arslan should take care of his arms, as both of his arms were stitched, and advises him to rest, but he doesn't agrees so. After giving the report, we come back to the station, we see Eylül listening to music and mimicking it. Arslan started laughing and Eylül looked at him, and Arslan whispered "Oh dear", then Eylül said that why was he laughing, Arslan that he is glad that she didn't end up becoming a singer because the way she butchered the lyrics was funny, Eylül used the card of being the older sibling, and Arslan had to accept it, and we walk away. As long we walk away, Arslan realises that he have been missing something, simultaneously Elif calls us and says that have we found Onur, Arslan then says "Oh that" and says that they are still searching for him, and will inform her about when he is found. Florin approaches us, he says that he can't believe that his sister killed, however he says that his family has been going on hard time, and he wants to transfer some money to them. But he doesn't have enough time due to workload and asks if we could give it to them, and we agreed, as we began searching for Onur, someone in a green car, similar to that of Onur parked outside the department. Arslan grabbed a gun, and pointed at the car, it was Onur who said "Woah, calm down bro", Arslan noticed that Onur was stitched on his head, and asked him what had happened, he says it was nothing, but Arslan knew it was Mert, who injured him. Onur says that he has found something really surprising and shocking, we ask him what happens, he tells us that he heard that Mert was just being used by HG for their crimes, and his closeness to Demeter, is just planned, we ask him how does he know about it, he tells us that one of the HG's member, is his friend, who had disguised himself as the member to spy on them ever since Mert was involved in this scandal, Onur says it hurts that Mert isn't the same, and he misses their friendship, because he considers Mert as his "platonic soulmate" and have been inseparable for last eighteen years, which made people jealous, Arslan says that he could relate to well with Taner. After our conversation with Onur, Avtandil calls us, he says that he heard about Ketevan's brother, we ask him how does he know it about it, he tells us that when in Russia he was being tortured, Avtandil had managed to save him, because of high rank, and ever since he was under his supervision, and now runs a business in Georgia, however Ketevan was unaware of this fact because her brother has changed his name from "Levan Abramashvili" to "Levan Chkhaidze", Avtandil tells us that he recently has arrived in Turkey to meet with his sister after fourteen years. Following our conversation, we heard Onur being angry at someone, we ask him what happened, he tells us that Elif is insisting him to break his friendship with Mert, because he already has hurt him a lot, but Onur said that he couldn't even imagine doing that, because his heart won’t allow him to do so, and he believes that Mert still cares about their friendship. Ceren approaches us and tells us that Mert is becoming dangerous for her and Onur, because of his attitude towards both of them, however Onur still doesn't wants to break ties with him, and stood up with him in the situation. Arslan whispered to himself and said that was a "real friendship". Ketevan says that she is really excited to meet her brother, and can't believe, but he tells us that he is coming to Konya and they shall with meet there, but since HG's influence was increasing, we knew Konya was the next stop, we decide to head there.
