It all started one night, when a colleague of mine called me to help him with a young girl with no ID.
"OK, you drive her to the station, and we'll check her identity," I suggested amused. They arrived 10 minutes later.
"These are my papers," said the redheaded girl, long hair, in daisy dukes and a crop top.
"Alexendre Retrovit, male," I said simply as I read the names on her ID.
"That's me, but I took an X-change for the evening," she said.
"We've never heard that one before," my colleague said.
I stood in front of the computer to do a google search.
"Pink x-changes turn boys into girls," she insisted.
"And the blue ones turn girls into guys!" My colleague laughed.
"Yes, it lasts between 20 and 28 hours, but there are 'x-strenghs' that last 28 days, and 'pluses' that are permanent," she continued.
"What an imagination," my colleague laughed.
"Come and see," I said, as the X-change website explained exactly what she had just told us.
Β« Well, shit... Β»
"Now you believe me!
"We believe that what you're saying is possible. Shall we do a fingerprint analysis?" I asked.
"Well, I don't know if it changes them..." she said looking at her fingers.
"You don't look like your ID picture. So I'll propose you a deal. If your fingerprints match your papers, you sign your ticket and leave... otherwise we'll keep you until someone comes to confirm that you're really Alexander. Or you change back.
"Okay," she said, "let's do the fingerprints."
It took about 45 minutes for the result to come back: it was Alexander's fingerprints. Only the lab had had trouble with the size.
Alexander left, rolling his little buttocks tightly in his jean shorts.
"It's a funny world we live in," my colleague said.
I just shrugged my shoulders.
"So gentlemen, what are we going to do. Another missing girl, in the same place as the others. I'm waiting for ideas..." our annoyed leader said. It must be said that we had no clue about these disappearances.
"We need bait," someone said.
"Find me a volunteer," the chief replied, in a tone that suggested we would never find one.
