The Psychic Adviser. Juan Moisés De La Serna

      “You and your things… are you sure that what you say you have still works?”

      I thought for a moment, wondering if there could be something wrong with me that would prevent me from continuing to use my powers, but I did not remember that I had done anything different from what I used to do, not a strange food or anything, and I had not had any symptoms to tell me that I could be sick and that would justify not having that connection, so after thinking about it I affirmed:

      “It’s not me, it’s the victim, she doesn’t communicate, so I don’t think it’s a kidnapping.”

      That day was one of many that the head of the police station threw at me with his words out of tune, seeming to forget all the times that I had collaborated and that my information had been useful, but now it seems that he was upset that I could not solve a single case.

      Well, with a very clear conscience I went to my house and stayed there for a few days until the police chief knocked on the door.

      That surprised me because normally he called me at the police station when he wanted to tell me something, but hey, there he was, and I didn’t know the reason for his visit.

      “Good morning boss, do you want to come in?”

      “No, it’s a quick visit, you were right.”

      “About what?” I asked without knowing what he meant.

      “The girl, the teenager who had been kidnapped, the one who didn’t communicate with you had faked her kidnapping, well, there never was a kidnapping, she went with her boyfriend to Las Vegas and when the money ran out between the two of them they thought to say that she was kidnapped so that her parents could send money for him to continue playing with. And no, don’t tell me you already told me.”

      “Not at all, I’m glad the case was solved.”

      “Yeah, sure,” he said as he left the door waving goodbye.

      I don’t know how many times he had to agree with me and admit that my abilities were fine, but that was the first, and that’s why I won’t forget it.
