Shloka 37
Dvaipāyana-hrade Duryodhanasya Māyā — Yudhiṣṭhirasya Dharmoktiḥ (Śalya-parva, Adhyāya 30)
आगम्य तु ततः सर्वे नष्ट दुर्योधनं नृपम् । न्यवेदयन्त सहिता धर्मराजस्य सैनिका:,धर्मराजके उन सभी गुप्तचर सैनिकोंने एक साथ लौटकर यह निवेदन किया कि “राजा दुर्योधन लापता हो गया है”
āgamya tu tataḥ sarve naṣṭaṃ duryodhanaṃ nṛpam | nyavedayanta sahitā dharmarājasya sainikāḥ ||
サञ्जयは言った。「やがて彼らは皆戻り、揃ってダルマラージャの軍に告げた。『ドゥルヨーダナ王は姿を消しました。』この報せには、戦における責任の道義が宿る。混乱のただ中にあっても、務めは真実の偵察と、正当なる権威への迅速な報告を求めるのである。」

After searching, the group returns and collectively informs Yudhiṣṭhira’s side that Duryodhana cannot be found—he has gone missing—setting up the next actions to locate him.
