Journo

“Oh! Of course. I’m so sorry.” He hands you a press badge. Maybe you can keep it and use it on someone else later? You clip it to your collar. “So, where should we start?”

“I’m writing a piece on new energy,” you say.

“You’ve come to the right place! Acting with social and environmental responsibility, to us, is a commitment to people and the planet,” he says, reciting the company line.

His hands are folded in front of him and he practically beams with excitement. Espresso much?

“Meaning what, exactly?” you say. “That you try to keep your oil production as clean as possible?”

“Certainly, yes, but we have a whole branch dedicated to alternative fuels. Petrobras Biocombustível works with ethanol and biodiesel, both of which reduce our dependency on foreign oil.”

“Then I assume you’re familiar with the work of Dr. Viktor Lucio de Ocampo?”

The plastic smile falls away. “I can’t say I know the name.”

“Really? The foremost researcher, scheduled as the keynote speaker at the Energy Summit here in Brazil? I understand many of his patents could make him a national treasure—his name doesn’t ring a bell?”

He picks up a manila folder from the lobby coffee table. “My schedule shows a different name for keynote speaker. We’re actually really excited to hear the new updates on solar energy from Doctor—”

“Why did your company force Dr. Ocampo off the speakers’ list? Had he pledged to share his results with foreign investors?”

“I’m sorry, but I have no idea—”

“Lying won’t help!” you snap, trying to badger him into cooperating.

Your plan fails. He snaps the press badge back from you and points to the door. “Okay, this interview is over! I’ll call your ride. Please wait outside or I’ll be forced to call security.”

• Go wait for Agent Bertram.
