Criminology –commented the Commisar of Cerrillos with contrariness. We’re looking for two
ferocious killers, author of the massacre of an inoffensive family. Two witnesses, see them, at
the hour of the crime, entering in the house. There all went right, all «normal». We requested
then to the witnesses to describe us the alleged evildoers. They accede; and there ends the
tipological normality: the case escapes to any general framing; not even the casuistry
criminology, neither the records, nor the accumulated experience, serve to comprehend the
fact. In a principle was suspected from the witnesses, but then their capacity to witness was
verified: two unblemished persons, who never drinks a gout of alcohol, because they perfom a
survelliance position, and they are also ex-policemen, i.e., retired policemen, trained to watch
facts and accustomed to give details. But their history was too much incredible. –Look that
image, where the companion has descended to open the palisade and the driver is seated at the
sttering wheel of the black car –What have seen the witnesses? Not two «normal» criminals,
who are going to kill a family furtivally, but two gentlemen stylishly dressed, who enters as if
they be as visit in the Property of the Siegnagel’s. In fact, the Judge ordered that they be
examined by the psychiatrists, yesterday afternoon, but the report is positive: they’re in perfet
mental conditions. They even facilitated an interrogatory under hypnosis, that also thrown
positive results: concretely, they tell the truth; whatever they have seen, they believe in what
they say.
I looked askance at the Commisar Maidana, because from all that emerged the whiff
known during the murder of Belicena Villca. But he not undeterred; evidently he also had a
rational explanation for the curious attire of the «agents of the Mossad».
Look at this, Gentlemen! –Insisted the Commisar of Cerrillos– Can be something more
ridiculous than a killers dressed with black suit of three pieces, black shoes, black hat, blach
mushroom hat!, black tie and white shirt? Yes, I know that can exist murders like these: in
Hong Kong, in Istambul, in London, in New York, and in a thousand more places in the world.
But here in Cerrillos? Treating about another kind of people it would be even possible to
accept their presence in the zone: for example, if they be executives of a transnational
enterprise that come for business, to loot some of our raw materials. To this kind of criminals it
is possible to imagine without effort. But, in the case that occupies us, they easily escape to the
general pattern of the farmer killers.
The Commisar consulted the watch and said goddbye: –I must leave now. See you soon,
Arturo; I am really sorry about this. I’ll see you this afternoon in the cemetery. Forgive me for
the talk but has been Maidana who came to stir the wasps’ net; I’d have not bothered you until
after the funeral. Naturally, the Judge also wants to talk with you and he will not delay to call
you; when this tragical moment passess, naturally.
The last words of the Commisar of Cerrillos caused me profound inquietude. What
pretended the policeman? They murdered my family and the interrogated would be me?
–Stay calm, Dr., that this is nothing –Assured Maidana–. Simple rutine. The police is
confused and will want to know your opinion. The same occurs with the Judge; is for this
reason that he resisted to give the corpses. I could give you many hypotheses about what the
Commisar told us and that has probably happened: for example, it is almost sure that they have
radiated the description of the black car and they didn’t achieve to know its whereabouts; is an
strange car and they suppose that someone should have seen it. But they don’t advance
because they investigate professionally. You and I know that, contrarily to what the
