A day came and passed, and Bruno soon returned to his office in Berlin. There he was confronted by a mountain of paperwork and multiple missed calls.
The messages had piled up from various heads of intelligence, at least three generals, and for some reason an admiral.
And of course the Kaiser had also left a message.
Nobody dared call Bruno at his home on his day off. What was happening in Switzerland wasn't exactly an emergency that required his attention. Nor was he the sole leader of the German Reich whose responsibility was to micro manage every small matter.
By the time Bruno sat down at his desk and began to listen to the calls, the sequential nature of their changes more or less hinted that the issue had been resolved during his absence.
But Bruno would not be doing his due diligence if he did not return the phone calls. He started with a list of priorities. Not the list of those received. Naturally, his first call was to the Kaiser's palace.
