OPPOSITE TWINS The Origin of the Lady... CHAPTER 91
The model opens her bag to put the card and what the detective had written and give it to her. At that exact moment, Gaspar turns around and catches her with one of her hands inside her bag. Soon she takes advantage and takes a pack of pills that she usually carries with her, inside her.“Gaspar, I need some water”, she shows him the pills.Immediately the man looks around and, upon finding the water fountain in one of the corners of the room, he heads towards it.At the moment when the lawyer is filling a disposable cup, facing away from them both, she approaches the old man and whispers, “Alej is good, but like everyone else, he also has enemies...and”, soon she becomes Compose yourself, because there is no time to finish the sentence.Moments later, in the parking lot, the lawyer helps her get into her car and as he approaches, before closing the door, he says, “you did relatively well..., but we need to talk a little as soon as possible”, in a tone that makes her uncomfortable.“I

“I only read a few articles about him and they all personify him as a very good and irreproachable man. I didn’t have time to read about her.”, confesses the old man.“Boss, it is a fact that in this case... specifically, we will come across actors and actresses who, very easily, could become whoever is necessary to manipulate us. They study acting techniques, they train so much, to the point where they have excelled in their ability to become other people... They are pure talents!”, she recalls.“To be honest, when I heard that our suspect was going to be an actor and that those who could give us details about him would certainly also be actors and actresses, it didn't cross my mind. But now that you’ve told me that, I just have to agree.”, reflects the old detective.“I noticed this in the articles I read... Many are good at this and everything indicates that the best in our country is working and living with our suspect and, to make matters worse, our suspect is the best of all...!

“Boss, these were unsolved crimes! No apparent investigative commitment! They were murders of rich elderly people, who, as good citizens, paid taxes throughout their existence and still paid until they died...! Is it because someone didn't show up setting trash on fire in the streets, as a sign of protest, that they don't deserve an investigation? Were they not worthy of this right? Was it because of the lack of posters saying “we want justice”, or something like that, that the police didn’t try to investigate and bring justice? And as for the media: nothing... not a single line, not a single mention to society, as if nothing had happened!”, she asks, with astonishment and, she adds, “why does society, friends, would relatives, if any, and the police themselves, hush up each of the deaths?” she concludes with more questions that neither of them would know how to answer. “I believe it may be “running under investigative secrecy” or as many know it as “investigative secrecy....” not

“I'm going to be honest with you Rebecca...” he says, interrupting her abruptly, “I don't feel comfortable working this way... Informant within the DP, this is unimaginable and unacceptable to me! Investigate completely in secret, in secret even from the police?”, he concludes, demonstrating that he is a person who likes to act according to the rules.“I'm not surprised by your attitude, boss. In fact, I already imagined that you would react this way to my revelation...,” she reacts, lowering her head.“My conscience bothers me, I apologize to you...Maybe I'm not even normal considering the way people deal with needs that force them to break small rules for their own goals, claiming to themselves that it's a greater good.Throughout my working career I have never done anything without being on the side of the law... and, following the pre-established rules that I agreed to follow as soon as I graduated”, says the old man who became the icon of justice in his time with sincerity. wher

“It's Becca, you might be right....Sometimes a younger mind like yours brings a point of view from another angle... and, in some cases, that's what we need to get a panoramic view of something that was previously only seen from the inside out...” the old detective admits in part.“I'm glad you're giving me the chance to express myself.And giving yourself the chance to see that everything fits together, boss... Think about it:A change in the system that restricts the freedom of private investigation comes in handy in cases of cover-up of crimes by the biased police system itself.It is a fact that most crimes are caused by simple, poor people with little or no education and, perhaps, because these people represent the majority in our country and in many others as well.And this criminal class, of simple people, usually uses escape to avoid suffering the penalties of the law.But it is not the lack of education or financial resources that leads someone to commit crimes. The factors a

The next dayIn the same place and at the same corner table in the restaurant.“What happened boss...? But one time I was worried about calling you and your phone seemed to be disconnected or out of range...” asks Rebecca, having been “watching ships” since the previous day.“My wife had been rescued and, in order not to waste time, I didn't tell you beforehand. The reason for the lack of contact is that I hadn't put my cell phone on charge, so I couldn't tell you. But you already know that when I change direction it's because of her. She is my life!”, explains the old man to the assistant.“How is she at the moment…”, she wants to know and is already expecting good news or at least not so bad considering that the boss is calm.""Stable". It is the term that for me has become synonymous with “good”, as I have never heard a better term from doctors than that since her diagnosis.”, laments the old man, showing comfort.“In this case, I will also take the same approach as you, but only u

“Changing the subject a little:You were saying something to me yesterday and I interrupted you because of the emergency with my wife.”, remembers the old man.“About Alejandro’s fiancée...?”, she asks, also seeming to not remember."Yes. It seems to have been about herself”, confirms the detective.“Sorry for the question boss. Was it our client who suggested starting the investigation by talking to the model and... the DP...?“Well, to be honest I just followed my intuition...No, it wasn't hers...”, the old man confesses after stuttering and somewhat reluctantly.“I imagined it, because if it were hers, it would have been contradictory compared to the secrecy, she wants us to maintain”, the assistant was not surprised that the idea came solely from her boss.“And I didn’t even warn her that I intended to do this. No, it's because I didn't have time for that.After she gave me the suspect's name, which she demands that our investigation start with him, I went to read about him and,

“Sorry boss, but I didn’t understand. What do you mean?”, she asks.“Well, what if our investigation is based on a single theory from our client? Nothing stops her from being on the wrong side, right...?”, insinuates the investigator in light of the facts.“Continue boss... I still haven't got your message...”, asks the assistant, in reality she could already deduce it, but she prefers him to be very clear.“Who can guarantee us that we are not in a case where our client has a personal or even passionate reason against Alejandro and wants us to find the necessary elements that she can use against him, denigrating him, tarnishing his image...?Sorry if I'm going to sound sexist, but that's not my intention. Women have done something like this much more often than we might imagine.Even if later on, during the appeals process, it is proven that he is innocent, some damage will always remain, leading some to believe until they die that it was the amount, he invested that obscured the tru
