Many years ago, in the 1960s, a homeless woman lived on the street in a rich residential suburb of Salvador, northeast of Brazil. She used to wear purple clothes and people called her " the woman in purple".
She slept on the street, asked for food and coins from everyone and she saw and knew everything that happened there.
It was said, she had seen an important politician kissing a woman who wasn't his wife, but she didn't say anything about that. She was still living her poor life.
One day, when the politician went out from his car and was walking home, she blocked his way and asked for money. But this man didn't look at her, he was still walking when he heard her say: " You'd better have coins, because I know your secret and I think you don't want your wife to know it." He stopped, turned and looked into her eyes, stayed a few minutes in silence and started walking again. He didn't say any single word to her.
The next day, she was missing from the streets. The police asked the residents, but no one had seen or heard anything. So, nobody has seen her again, and this mystery hasn't solved.
