Haralds Detektivregeln: 1. Ein Detektiv gibt sich niemals mit übernatürlichen Erklärungen zufrieden. 2. Ein Detektiv fürchtet nichts und niemanden. 3. Frühstücke stets ausgiebig, denn die Ermittlungen lassen dir vielleicht keine Zeit für weitere Mahlzeiten. 4. Ein Detektiv sollte stets eine Wäscheklammer mit sich führen, denn er muss seine Nase unter Umständen in übel riechende Angelegenheiten stecken.
