The Invisible Guardian Page #7

I just came looking for something.

- There's nothing of yours here.

- Yes.

Are you stealing from your own family?

It's mine, I saved it up.

This is too much money for you.

Anyway, if it's yours,

why don't you keep it at home?

- Why do you have a key to the bakery?

- Dad gave it to me.

Your father always spoils you

and lets you have your own way.

He's going to ruin you.

I bet he gave you the money

so you could buy this rubbish!

Don't start crying like an idiot.

I'm doing all this for your own good,

because I love you.

- You don't love me.

- What did you say?

- You don't love me.

- I don't?

No, you don't.

You hate me.

I don't love you?

You little b*tch!

You don't!

You've never loved me!

What happened?

Rosario.

Are you all right?

Rosario!

And Amaia? Where's Amaia?

Where's Amaia? Where is she?

Amaia!

Amaia!

Amaia!

Amaia!

Amaia! Amaia!

No!

No... No... Amaia, please.

Please! No, no!

Please! No, no, no!

She was very lucky.

The flour formed a crust

that covered the wounds,

and stopped her bleeding to death.

Will she be all right?

As a doctor,

I should report what happened tonight,

but I know the harm

it would do to your family.

However, as a friend

I'm saying get her out of your house

and far away from your wife.

If the child continues to live near her,

her life is in serious danger.

Is there no possibility that it was

an accident? Rosario came...

She went to get you

so you could be her accomplice

because she knew

that you'd believe her.

She went to get you because

she thought the child was already dead.

Juan, your wife

needs treatment urgently,

and the first part of that treatment

is to get Amaia away from her tonight.

The child has two broken fingers

in what is obviously a defensive wound

from trying to stop the first blow

with her hand.

But the most disturbing blow

is the second one.

Your wife hit her

when she was already unconscious.

She hit her to make sure she was dead.

Welcome home, darling.

We're nearly there.

It's the next pavilion.

Are you the daughter

who lives away from here?

Yes.

Be careful when you wake her

if she's asleep. She might be startled.

This way.

Mom...

Mom...

Do you...

have anything to do

with what's happening to those girls?

B*tch.

B*tch!

Amaia Salazar?

Yes.

I'm Dr. Basterra.

I'm sorry that on your first visit

you see your mother in this state.

We had to use restraints

after the attack.

What attack?

I thought you'd know about it.

Your mother attacked a nurse

the other day.

What?

Yes, while the girl was changing her.

She sank her fingers into her eyes,

she bit her face

and tore off several pieces of flesh

which she swallowed.

I informed your sister Flora

and she authorized

the sedation and the restraints.

She said she would tell you,

and give you all the details.

What details?

While she was attacking the girl

she kept saying your name.

She said it over and over.

"Amaia, Amaia, Amaia".

Just as well your brother-in-law

arrived earlier that day.

He can always calm her down.

My brother-in-law?

Yes, the one who visits every week.

He always brings flowers.

Oh, my God!

BODY OF MISSING GERMAN TOURIS FOUND IN BAZTN VALLEY

SIGNS OF VIOLENCE ON THE BODY

IDOIA TENA FOUND DEAD

IN VERA DE BIDASOA

Flora.

MISSING GIRL FROM ZIGA

FOUND DEAD:

SONIA EDROSO FOUND DEAD

OVER 30 MOTORBIKE COLLECTORS

IN BAZTN VALLEY:

Vctor!

How far are we?

We're almost there.

Not much.

This is the place!

I'm on my way to his house.

The last one going up by Bertiz Erreka.

I'm leaving now.

Wait for me.

- Call Montes and tell him.

- OK. But don't go in alone.

I should call Iriarte and Zabalza.

There's no signal

in this area, inspector.

If you want to talk to them,

we'll have to go back.

This is the answering service of

Fermn Montes, of the Navarra Police...

Amaia!

Amaia!

That way.

Amaia!

I'm at Victor's house, chief,

but he isn't here.

I don't know where to go.

Call me, please.

Sh*t!

Be careful!

What the hell is this?

There are more over there.

F***!

Mom!

Mom!

Why do you always have to interfere,

Amaia?

Where is she, Vctor?

Upstairs, waiting for me.

She got into my van

without even hesitating.

Even though she barely knows me

and with all that's happening.

I offered her a lift and she got in,

just like any whore.

I stopped the van upriver,

but there was too much movement.

Even the forest seemed to have eyes.

So I decided to come home

and today I had to bake again.

Were you in the kitchen?

Did you smell them?

Yes, I did.

They're asking for it, Amaia.

Always provoking men.

Destroying the valley with their drugs,

their music and their sex.

Someone has to teach them

about tradition,

purity and respect for your roots.

What Flora always defended.

And what your mother always did.

They're just children, Vctor.

- You think they're children.

- They are children.

That Anne was the worst of them all.

She offered herself to me like a whore.

And when I was finishing with her

she looked into my eyes

and cursed me, the b*tch.

Laughing.

Even when she was dead,

I couldn't get the smile off her face.

She scares you.

Is that why she isn't

with the other girls?

Because she scares you.

None of them scare me.

Police, I'm here to help you.

If we keep waiting for you

to catch him,

the valley will be covered

with dead girls.

Are you all right?

14 years ago he killed his first victim:

Teresa Klas.

He thought her morals were a threat

to the stability of the valley.

His guilt drove him to drink

to try to control his impulses.

But he ended up giving way to them,

convincing himself he was doing good.

A good that would become his mission.

WEEKS LATER:

Over the next six years

he killed 8 girls,

without following any pattern,

so we never thought

it was the same killer.

But there were certain elements that

would later form his modus operandi.

- I'll see you at home, okay?

- Are you sure?

- I'll see you now.

- Okay.

8 years ago he met the woman

who would become his wife:

Flora Salazar.

That relationship eased his anger

and for 7 years he didn't kill again.

But the marriage failed

and his anger returned.

Then he killed Sonia Edroso

almost on impulse,

but he couldn't resist

carrying out part of his ritual,

repressed for so long.

This time guilt had the opposite effect,

and he had to reaffirm his mission:

restore purity to the valley.

Unlike in previous years,

he now wanted his message to be known,

so he perfected the staging of the crime

and enjoyed it.

He thought that, in that way,

he'd get his wife's pardon and respect.

Carla Huarte,

Ainhoa Elizasu

and Anne Arbizu

were his last victims

here in Elizondo.

Is your sister Flora available?

We're going to need her statement.

24 hours a day, sir.

Also, Inspector Montes has found a cave

that seems to be connected

with the case.

But it's a mystery

we are still working on.

- Inspector?

- Yes, that's right.
