Now they had something tangible. Identification. Recognition. A witness.Inside the conference room, Lorenzo stood before a large digital screen displaying dozens of photographs.Businessmen. Investors. Executives. Visitors. Everyone who had attended the private club during the relevant period.Several investigators worked nearby. The room buzzed with activity. Peter entered carrying breakfast. As usual.One investigator looked annoyed. "Do you ever stop eating?"Peter looked offended. "Do you ever stop asking stupid questions?"The room laughed.

His expression remained exhausted.Yet he looked noticeably calmer. The

The next morning arrived under gray skies.bThe storm had passed. But the tension remained.Inside the luxury resort, guests resumed their normal routines. Business meetings continued.Tourists returned to the beaches. Employees moved through the halls carrying trays and documents.Everything looked normal. Only a handful of people knew a silent war was unfolding beneath the surface.Inside the investigation office, Lorenzo stood before the evidence board. Several investigators worked nearby.Stacks of reports covered the tables. Coffee cups sat everywhere. Nobody had slept much. Peter walked in carrying breakfast. Again. One investigator sighed."At this point, I think you eat more than you investigate."Peter looked offended."Wrong." The investigator raised an eyebrow."Oh?"

Morning arrived with bright sunshine. The violent storm from two nights ago was gone. The ocean sparkled beneath the rising sun.Tourists crowded the beaches. Luxury yachts moved across the water. The island looked peaceful.But beneath that calm surface, pressure continued building. Inside the investigation office, nobody had gone home.Several investigators slept in chairs. Others worked through the night. Coffee cups covered every desk. The evidence board had expanded again.New photographs. New documents. New connections. The wall was becoming impossible to ignore. Lorenzo stood near the center of the room studying the latest reports.Peter entered carrying breakfast. Three sandwiches. Two coffees. A box of donuts. One investigator stared."Planning to feed the entire island?" Peter looked offended."This is called preparation." The investigator laughed."For what?" Peter sat down."The collapse."

The next morning arrived with clear skies and calm waters. From the outside, the island looked exactly the same.Luxury yachts floated near the docks. Tourists crowded the beaches.

The exhaustion could no longer be hidden. The anxiety could no longer be ignored.For years, he had been the one controlling the board.Now he felt like a trapped piece being cornered from every direction.His phone vibrated. Another message. Another problem. He checked the screen. His associate.We need to talk. Immediately. Alessandro cursed under his breath. "Useless fool."He grabbed his jacket and left. Meanwhile, the investigation office was already alive with activity.Investigators moved between desks carrying files and reports. Coffee cups occupied nearly every surface. The evidence board had become enormous.Peter stood before it chewing on a pastry. One investigator pointed at him. "Breakfast again?"Peter looked offended. "Breakfast is important.""You had breakfast already." Peter shrugged.
