The Kriminalkommissar walked along the wide corridor with a satisfied look on his face. It was already quite late and a lot of people had already left home from the office of the Gestapo. The corridors were a lot more quiet now than usually and Otto could only faintly hear the steady tap of a typewriter echoing from one of the offices. Otto Wolff was accustomed to working long hours and work had always been the foremost thing in his life. Still, lately he had found increasing enjoyment and comfort in the peaceful environment of his own home and working overtime did not actually make him happy anymore. Still, right now he had something interesting to look forward to and staying at work this late did not bother him the least.
The door to his office was open and an SS guard was standing in the doorway, keeping his eye on Joe Claude. Claude had been brought to his office and made stand in the middle of the floor until the Kriminalkommissar would arrive. The guard had kept a close eye on Claude, as if he wanted to make literally sure that Claude stayed exactly in the middle of the room.
The office itself was very simply decorated and there were no windows on the wood-paneled walls. A swastika-decorated flag of the Reich was draped on one wall, a picture of the Führer was on the other one, accompanied by a framed propaganda poster with an eagle and bold text stating 'Mit unsern Fahnen ist der Sieg!'. The furniture was limited only to needful things, including a desk for the Kommissar, cabinets for papers, a small table for a radio and a separate desk for the typist. The scarce lighting and the lack of windows made the office appear almost like a dungeon.
Otto was wearing his SS-uniform, his clothes as immaculate as always and the swastika-decorated armband proudly presented on his left arm. The front of his uniform was decorated with the Golden Party Badge and his commendations from the Great War, the ribbon of his Iron Cross holding a pin which indicated that it had been awarded in the First World War. His polished black boots clicked sharply on the floor as he made his way to the office, the guard quickly saluting him as he finally reached the door. Glancing only briefly at Claude, Otto stopped inside the office to remove his leather coat and peaked cap, which he gave to the guard. The guard proceeded to hang the coat on the coat hanger next to the door and looked at Otto for further instructions. "Ich komm damit klar, danke," Otto said and motioned towards the door with one hand. The guard snapped into attention again and backed out of the door, the door finally clicking shut as he left the office.
Otto's eyes now settled on Claude and he passed by the man while taking off his leather gloves and walking towards his desk. "Do take a seat," Otto said in his smooth and deep voice. There was a quality of pleasantness to the way Otto spoke English and his voice might have even been characterized as being soothing if it wasn't for the intimidating uniform he wore. There were two chairs in front of the desk, they did not seem as luxurious as Otto's leather chair, but were quite comfortable nonetheless. Otto dropped his gloves on the table on top of a pile of papers, all of the official looking documents bearing the eagle of the Reich. There were no photographs or personal items anywhere to be seen, either Otto was very work-orientated or there were some other specific reasons for this.
Otto sat on his chair opposite to Claude and searched through his pile of folders for a while. With a quiet and thoughtful 'hum' he seemed to finally found what he was searching for and he opened the file. "Well, it seems that I can finally discuss things over with you without any interruptions. Nice and quiet here, is it not?" Otto asked as his gaze briefly flickered at Claude over the various papers in the folder. He picked up a thin piece of paper, something that looked like to be a clipping from a newspaper. It had been folded so the right article was easier to find and Otto slipped the clipping over the table towards Claude. It was an article about the explosion in the hospital, somehow Otto had managed to fish the news up. "Seem familiar to you?"
Translations:
"Mit unsern Fahnen ist der Sieg!"
"Victory is with our Flags!"
"Ich komm damit klar, danke."
"I can take it from here, thank you."
