The secretary-general's dismissal

The secretary-general left the ministry talking about pressure and with interviews booked for the following week. Meanwhile, someone had to clear out his office. Not every row and column has to be occupied.

Suspects

• Adalberto, the sacked secretary-general: He left talking about pressure. Before leaving, he cleared his office very calmly.
• Bernardina, the secretary: She has worked with three secretaries-general. This one was the quickest to leave.
• Clarisse, the ministry lawyer: She wrote the dismissal order and kept a copy, just in case.
• Dorindo, the courier: He carried boxes from the office to the car. He doesn't know what was in them, only that they were heavy.
