“Daddy is not dead, he is underground,” says the little girl. The police began to dig.

Chief Luis Ramos consulted the report. Name: Marta Gómez. Contents: missing husband, without leads. But the report was presented by a neighbour, Francisca Díaz, accompanied by a 4-year-old girl who was holding a teddy bear.

“I don’t want you to take him anywhere,” Francisca said. “But she said something strange. You should listen to him. »

Luis leaned over to the little girl.
“What’s your name?”
“Victoria,” she murmured.
“Do you know where your daddy went?”

Victoria looked up and whispered,
“Daddy’s under the kitchen floor.”

The air froze. Luis repeated the question.

“Daddy is under the kitchen floor, where the tiles are lighter. Dad is cold.

Luis gave the order to Lieutenant Ricardo:
“Call Marta Gómez and prepare an investigation.” We will be there in an hour.

Thirty minutes later, Marta arrived, calm and unperturbed.
“My husband, Julián, is used to leaving without warning. It’s not the first time, she says.
“The neighbors heard screams that night,” Ricardo added.
“We have quarrelled, but who does not quarrel in a marriage?” replied Marta.

Luis remarked,
“The kitchen floor has been redone recently.
“I changed it because of the mold.” I did it,” Marta replied.

Ricardo showed a USB stick:
“The neighbors have a video. We see you leaving with Victoria at three in the morning and coming back alone with building materials. How do you explain this?
“I didn’t want it to smell like mold.” I took Victoria to a friend’s house and bought materials to repair the house.

Luis raised an eyebrow:
“Without receipts or workers?” And the little girl said that her father was under the ground. What a coincidence!

Marta clenched her fists.
“They say I killed my husband.”

“We did not say that. We only ask questions, and your answers don’t coincide,” Luis replied.

Marta raised her voice against Ricardo:
“Do you know what an unhappy marriage is? Do you know Julián was hitting me?

Luis intervened:
“Do you have any evidence, a medical file or a complaint filed?”

Marta remained silent for a few seconds, then exhaled deeply.
