Maria \u00eentoarse fotografia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 \u0102sta este Victor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nepotul ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fotografia fusese f\u0103cut\u0103 recent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iar \u00een spatele ei era scris\u0103 o dat\u0103 din luna aprilie, exact perioada \u00een care Maria fusese internat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Nu mai pune\u021bi m\u00e2na pe nimic! spuse imediat poli\u021bistul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mul\u021bimea amu\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acum nimeni nu mai vorbea despre Valeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toat\u0103 lumea privea banii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maria sim\u021bea c\u0103 \u00eei tremur\u0103 picioarele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 La ora\u0219. A\u0219a mi-a spus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 C\u00e2nd a\u021bi vorbit ultima dat\u0103?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B\u0103tr\u00e2na d\u0103du din cap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Da.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poli\u021bistul se uit\u0103 spre sicriu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Atunci nu-l suna\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00cen mai pu\u021bin de dou\u0103 ore, gr\u0103dina Mariei fusese izolat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Au venit poli\u021bi\u0219ti \u0219i criminali\u0219ti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banii au fost fotografia\u021bi \u0219i inventaria\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00cen sicriu au fost g\u0103site \u0219i documente, telefoane vechi \u0219i mai multe plicuri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iar suma era suficient de mare \u00eenc\u00e2t nimeni nu mai credea c\u0103 Victor economisise pur \u0219i simplu ni\u0219te bani f\u0103r\u0103 \u0219tirea m\u0103tu\u0219ii sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maria st\u0103tea \u00een buc\u0103t\u0103rie, cu m\u00e2inile \u00een jurul unei c\u0103ni de ceai pe care nu o b\u0103use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un poli\u021bist intr\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Doamn\u0103 Maria, trebuie s\u0103 v\u0103 \u00eentreb ceva despre Valeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B\u0103tr\u00e2na ridic\u0103 imediat privirea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 E moart\u0103?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Nu \u0219tim asta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Victor mi-a spus c\u0103 s-au certat \u0219i c\u0103 a plecat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Ave\u021bi vreun num\u0103r de telefon?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maria \u00eei aduse o agend\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Num\u0103rul Valeriei era trecut acolo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poli\u021bistul \u00eel sun\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Telefon \u00eenchis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dar asta nu dovedea nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spre sear\u0103, Victor ap\u0103ru.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nu venise singur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un b\u0103rbat \u00eel adusese cu ma\u0219ina p\u00e2n\u0103 la cap\u0103tul str\u0103zii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C\u00e2nd Victor v\u0103zu ma\u0219inile poli\u021biei \u00een fa\u021ba casei, se opri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maria \u00eel privea de la fereastr\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pentru o clip\u0103, nepotul ei p\u0103ru c\u0103 vrea s\u0103 se \u00eentoarc\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un poli\u021bist \u00eei ie\u0219i \u00een \u00eent\u00e2mpinare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Victor Popescu?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Da.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Trebuie s\u0103 discut\u0103m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Victor se uit\u0103 spre gr\u0103din\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sicriul nu mai era acolo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dar groapa r\u0103m\u0103sese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0218i atunci Maria v\u0103zu ceva pe chipul lui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nu surpriz\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fric\u0103.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La \u00eenceput, Victor spuse c\u0103 nu \u0219tia nimic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apoi c\u0103 sicriul era deja \u00eengropat c\u00e2nd plantase cartofii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dup\u0103 aceea sus\u021binu c\u0103 banii \u00eei apar\u021bineau unui prieten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Declara\u021biile se schimbau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dar cea mai important\u0103 \u00eentrebare r\u0103m\u00e2nea:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unde era Valeria?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Victor repeta:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 A plecat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Unde?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Nu \u0219tiu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 C\u00e2nd?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 \u00cen mai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Cu ce?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Cu autobuzul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 A v\u0103zut-o cineva plec\u00e2nd?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Victor nu r\u0103spunse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maria sim\u021bea cum i se str\u00e2nge stomacul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Spune-mi adev\u0103rul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 M\u0103tu\u0219\u0103\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Unde este fata?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Nu i-am f\u0103cut nimic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

R\u0103spunsul a venit \u00een diminea\u021ba urm\u0103toare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0218i a fost at\u00e2t de nea\u0219teptat, \u00eenc\u00e2t Maria a trebuit s\u0103 se a\u0219eze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valeria era \u00een via\u021b\u0103.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poli\u021bia o g\u0103sise \u00eentr-un apartament \u00eenchiriat din Bucure\u0219ti<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C\u00e2nd aflase c\u0103 autorit\u0103\u021bile o c\u0103utau, acceptase s\u0103 dea declara\u021bie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iar povestea ei explica sicriul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Doar c\u0103 deschidea o problem\u0103 mult mai mare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valeria nu fusese iubita lui Victor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cel pu\u021bin nu \u00een sensul \u00een care crezuse Maria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cei doi se cunoscuser\u0103 prin intermediul unor persoane implicate \u00eentr-o schem\u0103 de ascundere \u0219i transfer al unor bani proveni\u021bi din activit\u0103\u021bi investigate de autorit\u0103\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Victor acceptase s\u0103 p\u0103streze temporar o parte din bani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avea nevoie de un loc unde nimeni nu s-ar fi g\u00e2ndit s\u0103 caute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iar atunci \u00ee\u0219i amintise c\u0103 m\u0103tu\u0219a lui urma s\u0103 stea mai multe s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2ni \u00een spital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gr\u0103dina unei femei de 80 de ani p\u0103rea perfect\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valeria \u00eel ajutase s\u0103 transporte \u0219i s\u0103 ascund\u0103 cutiile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sicriul fusese ales tocmai pentru c\u0103 era solid, putea fi sigilat \u0219i, dac\u0103 cineva \u00eel descoperea accidental, oamenii aveau s\u0103 ezite \u00eenainte s\u0103-l deschid\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apoi Victor plantase cartofii deasupra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Dar de ce a disp\u0103rut Valeria? \u00eentreb\u0103 Maria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poli\u021bistul ezit\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 s-a speriat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valeria \u00een\u021belesese treptat c\u0103 situa\u021bia era mult mai grav\u0103 dec\u00e2t \u00eei prezentase Victor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ce\u0219i luase lucrurile \u0219i plecase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nu mersese la poli\u021bie pentru c\u0103 se temea c\u0103 va fi considerat\u0103 implicat\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Victor \u00eei spusese Mariei doar:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eAm dat-o afar\u0103.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Era mai simplu dec\u00e2t s\u0103 explice adev\u0103rul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investiga\u021bia nu s-a \u00eencheiat \u00een acea zi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banii nu au devenit ai Mariei doar pentru c\u0103 fuseser\u0103 g\u0103si\u021bi \u00een gr\u0103dina ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Au fost ridica\u021bi ca probe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Documentele \u0219i dispozitivele descoperite au fost analizate, iar responsabilitatea fiec\u0103rei persoane implicate urma s\u0103 fie stabilit\u0103 de autorit\u0103\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pentru Maria \u00eens\u0103 exista o \u00eentrebare mai personal\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 De ce ai f\u0103cut asta \u00een curtea mea?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Victor st\u0103tea \u00een fa\u021ba ei \u00een timpul uneia dintre discu\u021biile permise ulterior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nu mai avea aerul sigur pe care \u00eel avusese toat\u0103 via\u021ba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 \u0219tiam c\u0103 e\u0219ti la spital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Nu asta te-am \u00eentrebat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Victor t\u0103cu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 De ce aici?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00cen cele din urm\u0103 r\u0103spunse:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Pentru c\u0103 nimeni n-ar fi b\u0103nuit o b\u0103tr\u00e2n\u0103 de 80 de ani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maria \u00eel privi lung.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Deci m-ai folosit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Nu voiam s\u0103 te implic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Ai \u00eengropat un sicriu plin cu bani \u00een gr\u0103dina mea. M-ai implicat \u00een clipa \u00een care ai pus prima lopat\u0103 de p\u0103m\u00e2nt peste el.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Victor \u00ee\u0219i cobor\u00ee capul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cel mai greu pentru Maria nu fusese descoperirea banilor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nici m\u0103car faptul c\u0103 poli\u021bia \u00eei umpluse curtea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cel mai greu era c\u0103 Victor fusese aproape ca un fiu pentru ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00cel crescuse \u00een multe veri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00cei f\u0103cuse m\u00e2ncare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00cei sp\u0103lase hainele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00cei d\u0103duse bani c\u00e2nd r\u0103m\u0103sese f\u0103r\u0103 serviciu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0218i el alesese tocmai casa ei pentru c\u0103 inocen\u021ba unei femei b\u0103tr\u00e2ne \u00eei putea servi drept acoperire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00cen prim\u0103vara urm\u0103toare, Maria plant\u0103 din nou cartofi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vecina de peste drum veni la gard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Dup\u0103 ce ai g\u0103sit anul trecut, eu n-a\u0219 mai s\u0103pa niciodat\u0103 acolo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maria ridic\u0103 din umeri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 \u0218i ce vrei s\u0103 fac? S\u0103 cump\u0103r cartofi toat\u0103 via\u021ba din cauza prostiilor lui Victor?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vecina \u00eencepu s\u0103 r\u00e2d\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Dar dac\u0103 mai g\u0103se\u0219ti un sicriu?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maria \u00eenfipse lopata \u00een p\u0103m\u00e2nt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Atunci chem poli\u021bia \u00eenainte s\u0103 chem tot satul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Am\u00e2ndou\u0103 r\u00e2ser\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00cen ziua aceea, Maria scoase primul r\u00e2nd de cartofi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La un moment dat, lopata lovi ceva tare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B\u0103tr\u00e2na \u00eencremeni.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vecina f\u0103cu ochii mari.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Maria\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B\u0103tr\u00e2na \u00eenghi\u021bi \u00een sec \u0219i \u00eendep\u0103rt\u0103 atent p\u0103m\u00e2ntul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Era doar o piatr\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maria o ridic\u0103 \u0219i o arunc\u0103 spre marginea gr\u0103dinii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Gata. Comoara de anul \u0103sta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0218i continu\u0103 s\u0103 sape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pentru sat, povestea r\u0103mase ani \u00eentregi \u201epovestea sicriului cu bani\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pentru Maria \u00eens\u0103 lec\u021bia fusese alta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cel mai \u00eenfrico\u0219\u0103tor lucru pe care \u00eel dezgropase \u00een gr\u0103din\u0103 nu fusese sicriul.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
