by Celina Ferreira


Fernando was alone in the newsroom.
All others who were on duty had gone out to do something.
Were few per night, one was eating, another had gone to accompany an important occurrence and Fernando was there preparing a story for the next day.
So everything was in absolute silence when the man arrived.
He stopped in front of Fernando table and he began to speak without interruption.
Fernando appalled at what he was hearing, paid much attention to everything, making little notes on a paper that was in front of him.
When the man finally stopped speaking, as Fernando had many questions to ask, turned to pick up the recorder, it would be easier that way.
It was a matter of seconds, but when he came back the man was gone.
Fernando then got up and went after him.
He left the newsroom, the hall and walked down the lobby to the elevators.
How not found, followed him to the door leading to the stairs and looking down, saw no one, or even heard a noise on the stairs.
It was amazing, but the man had disappeared without leaving any trace.
In  next three days  Fernando unsuccessfully sought  informations about everything that man said.
Even so, given the gravity of the facts and a wealth of detail provided by the mysterious man Fernando went to the police.
The whole story was really amazing and cruel, but in view of the credibility of Fernando as a journalist of the Daily News, the officer in charge began an immediate investigation.
Police due diligences were initiated to determine the history and locate the man who was to the Journal.
How the information was very accurate, quickly found a sophisticated clinic where there beyond research labs, procedure rooms, rooms for patients, and surgical, chemical and medicine material, used in genetic experiments legally prohibited.
Prisons, people who were in captivity were rescued were made.
Fernando can follow the day the clinic was raided and had access to files with information and photos of patient-used as guinea pigs in terrible experiments.
Fernando recognized the man who had spoken to him.
No doubt he was.
To his surprise the file reported his death the previous year during a procedure.
He was without action, not knowing what to do, decided not to reveal this intriguing discovery to the police.
If he said that this man was his source who would believe?
Of course it could be a mistake, so he quickly made ​​his decision.
The experience said it was better that way, then he decided that it would be more one newsroom secret.
