The Vatican, Vatican City State. He was about to go to sleep when he heard a knock on his bedroom door. Lazily he went and opened it, finding a man in his late sixties with an expressionless face. He was just like him, in pajamas and slippers."Cardinal Agnello," he greeted him, intrigued. “I was about to go to bed. What can I do for you?”"May I come in? It will only take a few minutes ...”He stepped aside and the newcomer entered the room. In the middle of it he turned to look at him, still with an expressionless face. After several seconds, which seemed like an eternity, he began to speak:“Cardinal Nitti, I have just received very important information and I didn’t want to wait until tomorrow to communicate it to you. It is important we make a decision tonight.”“And what information is that?”"It took a while for our investigator, but after so long we finally

New York, USA. The Bentley pulled up in front of one of the great buildings on Fifth Avenue, near the Metropolitan Museum. They got out of the car and entered the building. The man who had always spoken to them entered the elevator with them, while the other two who accompanied him stayed in the car and continued on their way. They came to a large entrance hall to one of the apartments, with marble floors and walls covered with some paintings that they supposed must cost a fortune. A butler greeted them and led them across the hall to an office which looked more like a library, judging by the number of books. The butler asked them to sit down, while the other subject told them he was going to look for Mr. Richmond, leaving immediately."Can I get you something while you wait?" The butler asked them."If possible, a soda," Doris asked, somewhat embarrassed. The butler nodded slightly."And for the gentleman?""Just water, than

Buenos Aires, Argentina. Julius and his sister spent most of the night talking and reminiscing about some of their childhood memories. David and Karen joined them once the children had fallen asleep, and shared with them part of their lived experiences throughout the years. Julianne was surprised by the number of families David had gone through when he was orphaned, but he assured her despite everything he had learned many things from each one. When he was a teenager, he did not give them the importance they deserve or appreciate the sacrifice they made to have him, which is why he ended up doing military service when he could. Now that he could think about everything with the necessary maturity, he was willing to go back to each and every one of them to thank them for their efforts and willingness they dedicated to him over the years."It’s a debt I owe them," he said melancholy. “And someday I will. Also, they should know that I&rsq

The Vatican, State of the Vatican City. Night was already beginning to fall when Cardinal Agnello received a WhatsApp message on his phone. He opened the app and looked at the images he had just received, along with a message that said, “The target is the boy in jeans and a light blue shirt. At his side, in the first photo, the father, and in the following with the protector and some of his friends.” Agnello detailed the photos, in some of them a boy of about eleven or twelve years old was seen, accompanied by an adult man, in others with a younger one, and in the last one with other children of the same age. Agnello recognized Dr. Hansen’s face from the reports of the investigator hired to locate him, but he never presented any of the boy, so he assumed that the one in jeans and a light blue shirt that the investigator mentioned must be him. He looked like a normal child, who shared with his friends and was happy.He was sittin

They had him lying on his back on a chair whose back had been removed, his hands and feet tied together underneath.

The woman looked somewhat upset, and her partner pointed it out to her.“Is something wrong?”“Nothing,” she said.

According to the worker, he did not teach that day, so he should be at home. It was almost noon.“How do you think he will get when he sees us?” Doris asked Mark, who was driving a rented Ford Fiesta.“Remember we helped them escape. They shouldn’t be happy that we have found them, but neither do I consider they should be angry, especially with the news we bring them.”They went on for a few more streets until they reached the indicated house.
