Facing the backyard is an elongated kitchen table with base cabinets and a single

                   sloping wall cabinet filled with untouched porcelain tableware, neat and clean,
                   except for the thick layer of dust. cutlery, and next to it, there is a folded yel-

                   lowed newspaper. Around the table on each side are placed two identical

                   wooden chairs. With a skeptical look, Karin sniffs inward a few times and asks
                   out into the air.

                          "What in the world is this smelling of, you can not smell it" She watches

                   Mitchel answers,
                          ”Besides here it smells old I can not smell anything, you talked about a

                   sour smell but I did not think I can smell" She shakes her head.
                          "No, here smells of fresh coffee as if someone has just brewed coffee go by

                   if there is anyone inside the apartment anyway" She almost whispers.

                          "Hello, is there anyone here? We are the Danish Building Authority, ”
                   Shouts Mitchel, not expecting an answer. He senses that there is no one, how

                   would the dust in that case lie untouched he suspects that there is something

                   completely different at risk something bigger and scary, he was in doubt when
                   she suggested they should go here, but for to put his courage to death over the

                   findings they had made the night before, he thought it was good to get a little at a
                   distance, now he feels that it is all getting worse. Karin goes to the table and

                   takes the newspaper and reads the front page;

                          “DER BERLINER
                          April 1942”

                   Then he sees the fine old gold-framed glasses lying next to it.” Mitchel nods

                   thoughtfully. On the chair hangs a salmon-coloured worn sweater. Katrin puts
                   the newspaper back and gently slides her hand over the blouse.

                          "Now I can smell what you are talking about, because it is the smell of cof-

                   fee" "Katrin" Says
                          Mitchel as if to get back to the present. "Look here “

                           He points to a small old brown book lying on a small shelf that sits over

                   the table on the opposite side, in addition to the book there are a couple of pipes,
                   a pipe cleaner a little different tools, nails and screws. With eager hands he takes

                   the notebook and opens it. "This is Uno Hinterglaub's notebook," he exclaims in
                   horror.
