But hey, I am not going to be the one to judge what others do and why they do it, I only know that I have tried to be very transparent with the authorities, what I received I told them, whether they liked it or not, of course, always with the intention of helping in what I could, although they did not always see it that way.
I remember once when I affirmed that there was no crime, it was about a teenager who had called her parents requesting a ransom and they asked me to try to locate her before they paid, because sometimes after payment, the kidnapper tries to erase the clues to their crime, and even ending up with the person for whom they had just collected the ransom.
This was one of those sought after dreams, in which they had given me as much information as possible about the case, phone numbers, names, and even the follow-up they had made to the closest circle to see if any were involved.
Despite this, I could not capture anything, and it was the first time that happened to me and so a week passed, and every day I approached the police station to report my lack of connection, and they told me if there was something new or not, after which I spent hours reviewing that documentation in search of that connection with the victim, but nothing, the days passed and I had nothing, so one day I went to the police station and with a firm tone I said to the commissioner.
There is no such abduction.
What did you say?
Yes, I havent seen anything, I dont see the victim, and its the first time this has happened to me. I dont think shes kidnapped.
But what are you talking about? Have you lost your mind?
No, Im very sure what Im saying, if the kidnapping had taken place I would have captured something, a connection.
You and your things are you sure that what you say you have still works?
I thought for a moment, wondering if there could be something wrong with me that would prevent me from continuing to use my powers, but I did not remember that I had done anything different from what I used to do, not a strange food or anything, and I had not had any symptoms to tell me that I could be sick and that would justify not having that connection, so after thinking about it I affirmed:
Its not me, its the victim, she doesnt communicate, so I dont think its a kidnapping.
That day was one of many that the head of the police station threw at me with his words out of tune, seeming to forget all the times that I had collaborated and that my information had been useful, but now it seems that he was upset that I could not solve a single case.
Well, with a very clear conscience I went to my house and stayed there for a few days until the police chief knocked on the door.
That surprised me because normally he called me at the police station when he wanted to tell me something, but hey, there he was, and I didnt know the reason for his visit.
Good morning boss, do you want to come in?
No, its a quick visit, you were right.
About what? I asked without knowing what he meant.
The girl, the teenager who had been kidnapped, the one who didnt communicate with you had faked her kidnapping, well, there never was a kidnapping, she went with her boyfriend to Las Vegas and when the money ran out between the two of them they thought to say that she was kidnapped so that her parents could send money for him to continue playing with. And no, dont tell me you already told me.
Not at all, Im glad the case was solved.
Yeah, sure, he said as he left the door waving goodbye.
I dont know how many times he had to agree with me and admit that my abilities were fine, but that was the first, and thats why I wont forget it.
