Call log — Office 55, incoming call

Call received today at 10.05 a.m. (automated transcription)

  1. Hello? Inspector Abad?
  2. Yes, speaking.
  3. God, what a fright. They have to come down right now. My dog was walking around sniffing the sand and started to dig… and she found a body! It's a woman. She's naked and really decomposed. It's horrible! I asked them to transfer me to you because I know you're the one in charge of the case of the couple who went missing, and I think it could be the woman.
  4. All right, sir. You did the right thing by calling me. We'll go down right away. In the call log I can see the area where you're calling me from, but can you tell me exactly?
  5. Yes, of course. I'm right in front of the intersection between Calle Punta de Abona and Calle Playa Grande. It's an area with summer houses. Just behind the last house, with grey trim, there's a rubbish container. The body was buried really close to there.
  6. All right, don't move from there and don't touch her, please. I'm also going to ask you not to tell anyone about this until we get there. We don't want to start any commotion or obstruct police work.
  7. All right. Thanks, Inspector.
Inspector Bárbara León Inspector Bárbara León
  1. Bárbara

  2. What's up?

  3. A man just called me telling me he found one of the bodies on a beach. Well, I don't know if it's one of them, but something tells me it is.

  4. Really? Oh my God, finally!

  5. Yes. Apparently it's horrible. It's decomposed, naked, almost unrecognisable…

  6. Jesus.

  7. Listen, I've been in the office all night and I haven't slept a wink. Could you handle this?

  8. Yes, of course. I was just about to leave the house. I'll deal with it. Don't worry.

  9. Thanks, Bárbara. Let me give you the exact address.

  10. Thanks. Tell him not to touch her until I get there.

  11. I already did. And I told him not to tell anyone, as it could cause quite a fuss in the neighbourhood there.
