Beschreibung

The smell was terrible. The body of the club president must have been lying in the cellar for weeks. Did no one think to look in this room? Or did everyone know? And what reason was there to kill him in this way? You might accidentally lock him in, but only for a short time. And the club was like a dovecote. That made for a whole bunch of suspects. The three investigators had their work cut out for them.

Murder is best in the club

‘Why didn’t you report your husband missing?’ ‘I didn’t miss him,’ she replied quietly. ‘But you noticed that he was no longer there?’ ‘Yes, I did, but I didn’t miss him.’ After she had left, the investigators looked at each other. It didn’t sound like love. Not like a grieving widow either. But not like a happy widow either.

The trapdoor slammed shut. He climbed the ladder to open it. No chance, no matter how hard he tried, it didn’t give way a millimetre. Who could have dared to lock him in here? Well, he’ll get a thrashing he won’t forget in a hurry.

The investigators had decided to question more people in the club and its surroundings. They started with the caretaker.

‘When your president disappeared, didn’t it occur to you to look under the trapdoor in the room?’ ‘No, that was absolutely forbidden.’ ‘Who forbade it?’ ‘Well, the president.’ ‘And you didn’t want to ignore the ban?’ ‘No, forbidden is forbidden.’ ‘And the thought that he could be in a helpless situation didn’t occur to you?’ ‘He forbade it.’ He looked at her blankly. ‘Were you afraid of your president?’ ‘Everyone was afraid of him.’ The investigators looked at each other. ‘You can go now.’ When the caretaker had left, they discussed the situation and how to proceed. It seemed that this president was a tyrant. But why didn’t they vote him out, why did everyone kowtow to him? But they only had two statements so far, maybe their first impression wasn’t right, objected Inspector Renate Schmidt. Her colleague Manfred Meyerhoff suggested continuing with the interrogations for now.
