The parliamentary inquiry

The parliamentary inquiry got under way and everyone promises to go all the way. Between testimonies, notes passed under the table and microphones cut off mid-sentence, a piece of evidence vanished. Eleven rooms, nine people and almost nothing said directly: you'll need several hypotheses to get to the end.

Suspects

• Adolfo, the committee chairman: He calls for silence every five minutes. Nobody has obeyed him since the last parliament.
• Belisa, the rapporteur: She has already written the conclusions. All that's left is to hold the inquiry.
• Carmo, the MP from the minister's party: She asks questions so long that the minister has time to prepare his answer while she's talking.
• Dâmaso, the minister's adviser: He sits behind the minister and passes him notes. Some are answers, others are the shopping list.
• Eva, the Parliament sound technician: She cuts the microphones when time's up. She's the most feared person in the room.
• Firmino, the former police chief: He came to testify as a witness and spent the time correcting the MPs on the names of operations.
• Gilda, the investigative journalist: She has more documents on the case than the committee itself. Maybe that's why they won't let her in.
• Hermínio, the committee usher: He opens and closes the committee room. He knows who stayed behind after hours.
• Inácia, the stenographer: She writes down everything said in the room. What isn't said interests her too.
