El funcionario est\u00e1 delante de la m\u00e1quina de escribir. El interrogado, sentado ante \u00e9l, contesta a las preguntas titubeando un poco, pero tratando de decir todo lo que tiene que decir en la forma m\u00e1s precisa y sin una palabra de m\u00e1s:<\/p>\n
Esta ma\u00f1ana temprano fui al s\u00f3tano para encender la estufa y encontr\u00e9 esas botellas de vino detr\u00e1s del caj\u00f3n del carb\u00f3n. He cogido una para beb\u00e9rmela en la cena. No sab\u00eda que la bodega de arriba hubiera sido descerrajada.<\/em><\/p>\nImpasible, el funcionario teclea velozmente su fiel transcripci\u00f3n:<\/p>\n
El abajo firmante, habi\u00e9ndose dirigido en las primeras horas de la ma\u00f1ana a los locales del s\u00f3tano para poner en funcionamiento la instalaci\u00f3n t\u00e9rmica, declara haber casualmente incurrido en el hallazgo de una cuant\u00eda de productos vin\u00edcolas, situados en posici\u00f3n posterior al recipiente destinado al contenido del combustible y de haber efectuado la extracci\u00f3n de uno de dichos art\u00edculos con intenci\u00f3n de ingerirlo durante la comida vespertina, no hall\u00e1ndose en conocimiento de la fractura sobrevenida en el establecimiento situado en el piso superior.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>Il brigadiere \u00e8 davanti alla macchina da scrivere. L’interrogato, seduto davanti a lui, risponde alle domande un po’ balbettando, ma attento a dire tutto quel che ha da dire nel modo pi\u00f9 preciso e senza una parola di troppo:<\/p>\n
Stamattina presto andavo in cantina ad accendere la stufa e ho trovato tutti quei fiaschi di vino dietro la cassa del carbone. Ne ho preso uno per bermelo a cena. Non ne sapevo niente che la bottiglieria di sopra era stata scassinata.<\/em><\/p>\nImpassibile il brigadiere batte veloce sui tasti la sua fedele trascrizione:<\/p>\n
Il sottoscritto essendosi recato nelle prime ore antimeridiane nei locali dello scantinato per eseguire l’avviamento dell’impianto termico, dichiara d’essere casualmente incorso nel rinvenimento di un quantitativo di prodotti vinicoli, situati in posizione retrostante al recipiente adibito al contenimento del combustibile, e di aver effettuato l’asportazione di uno dei detti articoli nell’intento di consumarlo durante il pasto pomeridiano, non essendo a conoscenza dell’avvenuta effrazione dell’esercizio soprastante.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
