Diabolical gift (english version)

The downtown seemed deserted, with its old buildings and cobblestones. Some homeless people, a cartwright, security guards. They sat down and asked for coffee.
 "Thirty minutes waiting to get out of the bar, torrential rain. My umbrella had dismounted. The sidewalks were surrounded by rivers. I saw a mother jumping with a baby on her lap across the water. It was a full month of rain in ten minutes of a storm, "Momai was saying in a spurt.
- Dad, it's okay. Today we see this piece and that's it. I'm not hurt. I'm not a child anymore. Tell me about the case.
"I just hope your mother does not ..." she chuckled. "Okay. A mansion." A birthday party. Invasion. The men are trapped in the bathroom. The women, gagged, bandaged and raped collectively. Terrible.
"And you suspect it was nothing like that." Because of the poem of Lorca. Really, it's weird that only one of them was killed.
- "Your mouth already without light / for my death". Why would a secretary write this on the front page of her diary?
"And you commented on a newspaper report on the same agenda about the police commander who would have ordered the death of a judge, and was caught by the new weapons law, which requires the registration of all the ammunition, to know who the bought.
- Another report said that the majority of Congress received more than 1 million from the arms industry. And you want to change the law.
- Really: it's a lot of coincidence. The girl's boss was the president
of the city council, Marcelo Costa, who accused the mayor of corruption and got his cassation. About the party, you seem to doubt the invasion theory.
- Very weak. The owners of the house, two brothers, claim to have been muzzled and locked in a room while their wives were locked in the bathroom. Why were all the women raped but their wives?
"Do you think the victim might have seen the criminals?" And the "invasion" would be a kind of demonic "birthday present"?
- Yes, it seems. I can not believe I'm talking to my teenage daughter.
"If you've read Conan Doyle, you know about" hereditary tendencies. " I was made for crime.
"He also thought everything was predictable because it was repeated, was not it? The world was stable, and therefore deductible sub quadam aeternitatis specie. They had not yet said, "Change is the system and systems have to change."
"Did you mention a sister on the desk?" You're going to look for her, are not you?
- Yes. Let's go up, five minutes to go.

His sister received him in the apartment where they both lived.
- Do you remember that, last year, the councilman publicly defended a 60% increase for the legislature?
The judiciary had also asked for this. The mayor did not accept and campaigned for the media. Soon after, he was tried for corruption.
- Yeah, I'm aware.
"My sister wanted to get out of the job. I was scared.
"Do you think you heard anything?"
"You must remember that last year, during a four-day police strike, 180 homicides took place. Most of them young, black, drug users from the periphery. The mayor was pushing for investigation.
- Thank you Miss. It's good to have reminders of yesterday.

Helio was excited. They had an ice cream.
"One of them confessed. They killed the girl because she heard their names. They themselves bought the materials to gag and tie the victims in the supermarket in the nearby town. But there is one thing that still intrigues me.
They swear the idea did not come from either of the two brothers. Would it have been a creation of the third man, André Padilha? They were silent. He disappeared.
- I have a theory: please trace that man's cell phone. I'm sure he has involvement with the president of the city council. Has the director of the Homicide Department during the police strike last year said there was a suspicion that 30 murders in the period were committed by police officers. And did he even say that the strike command could have ordered the executions to cause commotion in public opinion? Alderman Marcelo has a history of defending reactionary groups.
- "Your mouth already without light / for my death".
- The rapists have to pay. And when Andrew falls ... It's not the Republic of Bananas, after all. Never doubt the power of art, "Momai laughed, finishing off the chocolate ball.
