Title: "Subcontracted Crime."

Along the return to Villa Martínez of Carlos Pimentel, the residents of Madrid were threatened. Carlos Pimentel was disinherited from a noble family of the city, whose lights had turned him into a white-collar criminal. Carlos was attractive, he was 35 years old and had the manners of a gallant, that was the real fear among the wealthy neighbors; for their daughters to fall into Carlos’ trap and be changed forever, completely different from the innocent girls they were while growing up. For Carlos, in the low and in the upper neighborhoods the same crap was cooked, the same fish, whether it was cod or sardines. After all, what he wanted was a life based on hedonism, and suffering was not in his vocabulary.

Siberio Almenara, a wealthy landowner, had an unfinished business with Carlos Pimentel, that is, he decided to hire a hit man with a questionable job who would not hesitate to give little Carlos a trip for a good sum. There was any problem, one hundred thousand euros were sent in a bag to Ginés Trujillo. Ginés had a lot of work, so he subcontracted Adolfo Martinón, a well-known opportunist of the banking world, who had no choice but to exploit what he was taught in the military to pay for the luxuries of Eastern European women. They offered him half and Adolfo, faced with a trip he had planned to Romania and the need for capital, decided to accept and subcontract the services of Roberto García, alias “El Cangrejo”, “The crab” in English. “El Cangrejo” worked at a hospital, he was a nurse who supplied the elderly, upon payment, with a sedative that made them pass away. The amount was around five thousand euros and “El Cangrejo”, faced with the debt he had with the gold visa, did not hesitate to accept and later subcontract Rodolfo Ordóñez, a surfer who was hooked on trankimacin and had a hammock stand on the beach.

Roberto García stole the medicines from the hospital, so the business was closed. Rodolfo picked up a sports newspaper from Monday and stood at Carlos’ door. When Carlos, after a weekend of drunkenness and bad life girls, saw the newspaper, he was intrigued. He read the headlines and got a terrible impression. His blood was boiling while he read said cover, until he collapsed from a heart attack. When the police came, they found nothing, it was simply a heart failure. Detective Galdós was curious and read the newspaper headline: “Tenerife football club goes up to first”, then he read in fine print: “The Real Madrid will play again on the last day”. With that information, he opened Carlos’ wallet and verified he was a member of Real Madrid. Galdós smiled and told his assistant: “Carmelo, there are those who don’t forget.”
