The culprit behind the murder was Uwe.

Even though he stated that he had never entered the abbey, there was a leaf of one of the mourning willows on top of his hat.

The mourning willows are extraordinary in the whole area and are nowhere else to be found.

Uwe had an appointment with the victim in the middle of the four mourning willows.

Apparently Uwe had borrowd money from the victim.

When he couldn't pay him back, the victim pressured and threteaned him, leading Uwe to take the initiative and shoot him. Before that he had tied his beloved dog down outside the abbey.

He then ran back to his dog and tossed the gun into the well near the four mourning willows.

“Well, my office officially closed 20min ago; so I'll take an extra charge for the overtime work.”

“Extra charge?”, asked the salesman slightly confused.

“Yes. I think my fees will count up to approximately 900 bucks. I can give you the exact amount, when I have my calculator.”

“900? Isn't that a bit... well, I don't mind compensating you for your efforts, but...”

“Don't mind compensating?”, repeated Peppe snappishly.

“That's the least you can do. I don't work for low, I have to make a living, too. The murderer is not the only one with depts. Do you know, how much a single donut costs these days? I'm addicted to them, they're ruining me! Besides, I walked all this way up here and restored your integrity, right?

“Well...”
