Not in the least. What I mean is that we, too, could force the Mistrettas to take the necessary steps in the right direction, the one that leads to the possible ransom money. And those steps might clear up a whole lot of things for us. I dont understand. Let me sum it up for you. The kidnappers knew right from the start that the Mistrettas were not in any position to pay a ransom, and yet they kidnapped the girl anyway. Why? Because they also knew that the Mistrettas could, if necessary, get their hands on a large sum of money. Do you agree so far? Yes. Mind you, the kidnappers are not the only ones who know that the Mistrettas can do this. Theyre not? No. And how do you know? Fazio reported two strange phone calls to me. Have him repeat them to you. And why didnt he report them to me? It must have slipped his mind, Montalbano lied. Concretely speaking, what should I do?
