[KNOCK ON DOOR]

[BUSSANO]

[BUSSANO] Coming !

- Are you all right? - Did I wake you up? I'm sorry. Good evening, may I? - Please do.

Take a seat.

Nice house. A little bit fancy, obviously, in style.

- Thank you. - According to the commissioner you are wearing a 42.

I got you an extra size, so you can wear thick socks.

-Thanks. -Get dressed, I'll wait in the car. She's there too, so hurry up.

- Did something happen ? Where are we going ? - To Travení.

A tall guy broke into into the house of the murdered engineer.

- But right away ? - Yes, now.

- Quick, yes, right away. - I'm going, I'm going to change.

- Waiting in the car. - Coming !

Here we are.

- It's not so bad. - In fact.

- Let's go. - Come on, come on.

Rest your finger on it.

Well, we are done.

Are you all right ?

You remind me of the dogs that party to their master even if he comes back from the bathroom.

It is always a pleasure to be kind to you.

I called Udine. On Cristian Lusar there is nothing important reported.

Some denunciations, because he is considered a radical environmentalist.

If the mayor had told us who he was when he called...

It takes time, in the hope to make things right.

However, it is out here.

- Thank you. - I have already taken two today.

- Tea or coffee ? - Tea, please.

- Is it sweetened ? - Yes, the distributor makes it that way.

Better not, then. Coffee for me.

His people were stationed in front of the victim's house

or were you keeping an eye on Cristian Lusar specifically ?

- What difference does it make ? - He knows very well.

He was suspicious of him, so she stopped him.

Three months ago at the Valent construction site there was a fire

and Lusar is at the top the list of suspects.

List he kept to himself, as well as well as information about the fire.

What else are you hiding from me ?

- Nothing. - I don't believe her.

- Do as you want, commissioner. - You must do as I want.

You don't understand, do you ? She can't, after all.

He does not know what it means to administer a country.

I have tried not to give prominence to certain facts

Because if the tourists leave, Traveni dies.

Then also put me in the condition

to defend the country he cares so much about.

If it is not clear to you

Even before Traveni, someone else might die.

Hello.

- Are you sure you are up to it ? - Yes. Where do we look for it ?

In the forest leading to the Gorge.

Not far away there is a stavolo, maybe he is hiding there.

Let's go.

I did not kill the engineer.

Yes, it is possible, but what was Valent doing at home ?

I did nothing wrong.

- You cannot hold me back. - Answer the commissioner.

You cannot question me without a lawyer.

Yes, but since you have done nothing Evil, you have nothing to fear.

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

- Yes, Parisi ? - All right.

- I'm taking it to the office. - Thank you. Excuse us for a moment.

If my father wakes up, he will kill me this time.

Maybe we are doing something stupid.

How far is it to the stavolo ?

It's nearby, beyond this clearing, following the path.

- Ouch! - Lucia !

- Mathias ! - Are you okay? I'm coming!

It's a trap, I'll set you free.

- Thank you. - You're welcome. Are you all right ?

- Can you manage ? - Yes.

(together) Aah !

The commissioner will receive it shortly.

She is nervous.

- He seems impassive. - Motionless indeed.

We have the words to lie And the body to tell the truth.

If you say so, yes.

Those two know each other better than I imagined.

- You're welcome. - Yes, thank you.

- Do you need anything ? Coffee, water ? - No, thank you.

The commissioner will be right with you.

(sotto voce) Hey ! Can I talk to you for a minute ?

Do you know what they want from me ?

No, I don't know anything.

The commissioner will tell you all about it.

(sotto voce) I have to go. - Yes.

- Good evening. - Good evening.

Is it the war of nerves ? I've been here for more than an hour

And you just asked me if I want a coffee. - Are you lovers ?

Excuse me, I don't know what you are talking about.

Yes, he does. Don't make it worse.

You and Lusar had an appointment.

Cristian had nothing to do with the death of my husband. Neither did I.

How can I trust him ? He has already lied to me once.

How was I supposed to tell them ? My mother-in-law and my son were there.

He could have called me at another time.

- Now everyone will come to know ? - Right now only I know.

I worry about Diego.

You see, commissioner, life with my husband was hell.

I thought about leaving him a thousand times, But I would never kill him.

Neither does Cristian.

Assuming I believe her

you may have asked someone to do it for you.

I have to make sure that this is not the case.

I need to know the details of your relationship.

- Those useful for investigation, I mean. - Sure.

Excuse me, a curiosity... Is Diego sick ?

- Why can't he eat sweets ? - He is not sick, he is perfectly fine.

My husband was a very rigid man.

(shouting) Where have you been? Where have you been ?

I asked you a question ! Tell me !

- Not like that, please ! - Show me how to do it, come on !

- No ! - I'll make you the desire to talk !

- Shut up ! - Leave him alone !

Oh my God! Oh, God!

I ran away !

I came back for mother and Markus, not to leave them with you !

You are bad ! You are a monster !

[PLANS]

- Goodbye. - Goodbye.

- Goodbye. - Goodbye.

Maybe we shouldn't have let them go.

We examined messages, calls, locations.

Nothing suggests of a planned crime.

If one is good at planning, planning does not emerge.

If you are right, better off, free to make mistakes.

Right, commissioner ?

Commissioner ?

- Yes. - Is that right ? - Yes, of course.

- Excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom. - Sure.

- Are you sure it feels good ? - Don't.

- I just asked. - Don't do that, ever.

Hi, Mom.

Are you okay ?

Yes. You?

Yes, I am going back to school today.

All right, if that's what you want.

Marini.

- It's been too long. - He must be getting insulin.

What if she fainted and hit her head ?

You are too apprehensive.

- I'm going to go and see. - Yes.

- I have warned you, don't be disappointed. - All right.

You are welcome.

Are you all right ?

Commissioner, can you hear me ?

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

I'm going to open the door now, okay ?

- What the heck is going on? - Excuse me, I didn't see you come back.

You thought you'd mind your own business Again, like before with the tea.

- I was worried. - I had forgotten the insulin dose.

Do not expect anything from Valent's wife and Lusar.

They are just two adulterers, boringly predictable.

- Shall we go ? - Sure. - I want to go back to Udine.

Can you go to school by yourself ? I have an important thing to do.

- All right. - Come here.

Thank you.

What did you do ? The stuff is still all here.

- You didn't sell shit. - It was snowing and the pub was deserted.

- "Desert. - I'm going.

- If you get a good grade, I'll buy you the new toboggan. - Thank you, dad.

You need to control it more. Continue leaving that bowl out.

- She is only ten years old, Melania. - She's stupid; age has nothing to do with it.

But leave her alone ! What did she do to you ?

Why do you always take it out on her ? Leave her alone !

It has never given any problems.

Go.

Commissioner, the frost had discharged the battery, now it is ready.

- Can we go ? - Yes. - Goodbye.

- Goodbye. - Commissioner !

- I wanted to talk to you. I'm... - Gaetano Brughi. I know.

Let's go. Come on up.

- Hello. - You're welcome. - Hi.

Hello, Gaetano.

- Does it hurt ? - A little.

- Did he beat you again tonight ? - Yes, but it doesn't matter.

We have to tell Oliver and Diego, it's in the friendship pact.

Not right away. First we have to prove That the ghost exists.

Do you want to go back to the stavolo ?

I can't, my father is controlling me. You have to take care of it.

- Alone I am afraid. - Don't go to the volley.

- Photograph him when he drinks milk. - How do I do that ?

With this.

- Where did you get it ? - It's mine, my grandmother gave it to me.

No one knows I have it. Hide it, don't let Diego and Oliver see it.

[BELL]

Let's go.

- Aren't you coming to school ? - As long as I have a bruise I have to stay home

or else the social workers.

- Hi. - Hi.

Two years ago I was hired by Valent as a site manager.

We know, but he quit his job shortly before his death.

-This is the part that interests us. -I'm here on purpose, inspector.

Please, we are listening to you.

The engineer wanted to enlarge the construction site

However, the affected part was private property.

He decided to sneak an inspection.

Just to test the ground.

A few days before he disappeared

we started the core drilling, he and I alone.

Stop, freeze.

- There is something down here. - What is it ?

I don't know, get me a shovel, please.

Among the earth spilling out we saw pieces of cloth.

We imagined that they had buried something.

About the waste. It is very common.

When I saw the piece of cloth, I knelt down.

I took him by the flap to pull him to me

And we saw the bones.

There was also a skull.

It was very small, definitely of a child.

- What have you done ? - Valent didn't want to give up that area.

He ordered me to cover everything and not to tell anyone

If I didn't want to lose my job.

So the remains are still there ?

I don't know.

I told Valent that I would come to talk to the police.

He said that it wouldn't do any good

Because at the site the skeleton was no longer there, I don't know if that is true.

When I said I would come anyway, he freaked out.

We almost came to blows, but I would not give in.

I told him that I didn't care about the job

And he threatened me to reveal my identity.

I have already been a hero once And it cost me a lot.

Of the skeleton there is no trace.

Fragments of bones, scraps of cloth, dried flowers...

- One button. - Only this remains of the clothes ?

Who took it away, wanted to take everything away

But we have these fragments.

- Can you date its death and derive the child's DNA ? - We try.

Assuming that Valent told her the truth

and it was not he who made the skeleton disappear

has anyone heard about your inspections here ?

I haven't told anyone and I assume neither did Valent.

This is the area where he was attacked.

- Do you have any idea why he came back here the morning of his death ? - No.

After the quarrel, my dismissal, we never saw or heard from each other again.

Commissioner...

- Will I pass a problem for that ? - No, don't worry.

We will maintain the utmost confidentiality about your name. Just go home.

Thank you.

Yes. Yes.

All right. All right, goodbye, thank you.

The owners of the place went away from Traveni forty years ago.

The parents are dead and the children don't take care of them.

Is Valent's death connected to the discovery of the skeleton ?

How about finding out ?

I go to Udine, you come back with CSU.

The petals show that someone was leaving flowers on this grave.

In fact, you are right.

Don't feel bad about it, today is a bit like that.

"Today" ?

[FROM A DWELLING: # THERE IS A LAMPARA ON THE SEA].

[# EVERY NOW AND THEN I SEE IT GO BY.]

[# FIRST I SEE HER APPEAR]

[# AND THEN DISAPPEARS.]

I have sung it a thousand times And now I can't remember a word.

By now I no longer count these gaps, I don't recognize those next to me

I don't remember where I am and why, then everything falls into place.

- I feel exhausted. - How long has this been happening to you ?

A month, a month and a half.

Have you been skimping on your diet or insulin ?

No more than usual.

- Is it the diabetes that gets worse ? - I want to give you a test.

Raven's test.

- It's to see your lucidity at the moment. - So.

The B.

C.

Of this...

C.

[TERESA SIGHS]

C.

Enough, I can't take it anymore.

My neurons are exhausted, I see them crumbling one by one.

This is not an easy test, Teresa.

Can diabetes be to blame or not ?

Yes, it can be.

You are not convinced.

You know you can't solve a case With clues alone.

To find the evidence, what do you plan to do ?

Of course. I'll prescribe tests for you.

Don't disappear as usual.

Today I had to deal With the death of a child.

Whatever the reason why my memory goes to shit

I hope to never forget

the feelings I had when I was pregnant.

[CRUNCHING OF BRANCHES].

- How are you doing? - Bad.

These are horrible stories.

What is the point of collecting all these missing persons reports ?

If we find one made in Traveni or nearby, that is something.

- Coffee ? - Yes.

- Did the commissioner happen to lose a son ? - I don't know.

Stay there, I'll get the coffee.

I am a fool.

Hello ?

Here it is.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Do you think it marked the house ?

I don't know, anything is possible.

Violence against animals is common to many serial killers

But it is an act that is generally is consummated in private.

It's like taking the first steps toward the fantasies that haunt them

And asking to be realized.

If so

we would be facing something far worse than a threat.

Commissioner ! There are footprints of shoes everywhere.

They come from the forest.

They match those at the scene of Valent's attack.

I don't see the return ones.

It may still be here, somewhere.

- Afraid, inspector? - No.

- But I don't feel like fooling around. - Use them to look, the eyes.

Some footprints are more pronounced than others.

As if he had returned on his steps.

Why ? What is the point of it ?

You can't decipher it ? If it's any consolation, neither can I.

- Hello. - Good morning.

Commissioner !

Colleagues ! These prints.

- Let's go. - Yes, right away.

I'm sorry to have woken you up, but this is no small matter.

- Who warned you ? - Kravina's daughter.

- Lucia, 10 years old, at home alone. - Similar episodes ?

No, nothing like that.

What kind of family is it ?

He is a layabout Who jumps from one job to another.

She is a waitress in a downtown diner

and supplements by waiting tables in the evenings at the pub.

There is better, but they are harmless.

They left a little girl alone at night in the house.

Where are the parents ?

He has his cell phone turned off. I tracked her, she's on her way.

- I want to talk to Lucia. Where is she? - At home.

Marini, Parisi, let's go.

Thank you.

- You are very good at it. - It's just coffee.

All right.

Tell us what happened ?

I... I...

- Where is Dad ? - I don't know.

Did you do it again ? Answer.

It's your fault that animals leave carcasses out here.

I don't know what he's talking about

But I doubt that an animal has skinned and hung a hare.

- Parisi will explain everything to you. - Yes.

Let's go outside, come.

- Have a seat. - Thank you.

What do you think you have done mother ?

I don't know... I...

- Lucia. - Hello !

Lucia. Hi.

- Hi. - Take it easy now.

- Charles Ian. - Teresa Battaglia, I follow the Valent case.

- Inspector Marini. - I am... I was the township doctor.

I have known Lucia since she was born.

I saw the police cars And I got worried.

What happened ?

I was going to check the milk bowl

And found a skinned hare.

No, don't worry.

- You know, the commissioner... - Teresa.

Teresa, you can trust her.

It's my secret. I couldn't eat them, but I do it secretly.

Will you tell us your secret ?

I see a ghost.

Really ? Where do you see it ?

In the forest, among the trees, looking at me.

What does this ghost look like ?

I don't know, I've never seen it well.

It hides in the trees. All I know is that it is so big.

How long have you been seeing him ?

For a while, but it has existed since before.

As soon as school reopened, a sweater went missing

And a pair of dad's pants, but I know he did it.

So I started to put the milk outside the door.

I thought that if he was cold, he was also hungry.

You did well.

Did he drink the milk ?

Yes, every night.

Even tonight, right ?

Can you show me your room ?

- They seem to say hello. - The ghost watches me from there.

As a young girl I also had a secret diary.

It's not really a diary, but that's okay.

Are they your friends ?

Yes, they call us the loser club.

- Who calls you that ? - Some children fools who think they are who knows who.

- And someone else ? - The janitor.

We have a blood pact. We have Pointed our finger and mixed it.

It kind of sucks, but Mathias says. that otherwise the friendship ends.

- He is the leader. - Oh, well.

So if he is the leader, he knows his stuff.

Indeed.

Mathias gave me his secret cell phone.

I use it to photograph the ghost when he drinks milk.

But I fell asleep. I'm a fool, aren't I ?

No, you are not stupid at all.

You are a very smart child And very brave.

Do you want to see the deer with the necklace ?

- The deer with the necklace ? - Yes.

Beautiful, isn't it ? Mathias took it.

And where, do you know ?

On the path leading to the Gorge, Our secret place.

We go there every afternoon to talk.

Mathias is sure that once the ghost followed him there.

Can you tell me how to get there ?

Commissioner.

Do you believe that it is the same man who killed Valent who did this ?

- It's too early to tell. - It's true.

- How old were you when she had Lucia ? - 16.

It is not bad

But she fails to be affectionate with the child.

I noticed that.

It's a real shame, Lucia is a special child.

Yes. Goodbye.

Hello.

Commissioner.

We checked, Lucia's father has a record.

That's why he stays away.

How would we do without your skillful deductions ?

Car keys. I need to verify something.

You can wait for me in the village or return with the CSU.

Scientific.

[WHEEZING]

- Commissioner Battaglia has he returned? - I have not seen her.

- Did you hear it? - No.

[FREE LINE SIGNAL]

Nothing, no answer. Not even in Traveni have they seen her.

- It seems like midnight, yet it is nine o'clock. - It's the North, my boy.

In the North if a commissioner doesn't respond, do you give a damn ?

The commissioner hates having his breath on his neck.

I have experienced it for myself. See that you don't fall for it.

Going to sleep.

Okay, But if you keep not responding

I have her geolocate her phone and track her.

I have warned you. Good night.

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

Good evening, Inspector Marini.

I need to geolocate a cell phone and fast.
