About Inspector Danger's Crime Quiz
INSPECTOR DANGER’S CRIME-QUIZ Do you love whodunit-mysteries? Are you a Columbo-fan? Would you like to be a detective too? Here’s your chance. The comic strip “Inspector Danger’s Crime-Quiz” by Werner Wejp-Olsen, world-renowned cartoonist, is a crime-puzzle challenging armchair sleuths of both genders and all ages to activate their Sherlock Holmes-gene to figure out the right solution and solve the case. The main characters are the tough and rough Inspector Danger, all criminals’ worst nightmare, and Alfie, his dim-witted assistant and still a rookie after seven years on the force. In just a few panels, a whole mystery plot is being presented with a number of suspects and clues for the reader to check out and by deduction come up with the right solution to the crime. These mysteries span from cold-blooded murders, safecracking and bank robbery to art thefts, kidnapping and every now and then even a Peeping Tom – all presented with a humorous twist. But in each strip – in each case, the reader has all the suspects and clues needed to come up with the right answer – and as a safety devise – a solution (printed upside down - sorry!).
DISCLAIMER All characters appearing in this comic strip are fictitious. Any resemblance to the real world, real crime scenes and actual criminals is purely coincidental, unintentional and not to be taken too literally.
To quote a famous Grook by Piet Hein:
“Taking fun as simply fun
and earnestness in earnest
shows how thoroughly
thou none of the two discernest.”
By the way - no animals were harmed during the production of this comic strip.

Just watch out for a hedgehog named Spiny Norman. ‘Dinsdale, Dinsdale.’

Ok, again: right-handed people do not pick up the phone with their left hand. That just doesn’t happen.

I agree with BartJ. As a right handed person I keep my phone on the right side of my desk and pick it up with my right hand. Also the lack of a mouse indicates that the laptop is used with a touchpad or mouseknob. Having the laptop on the left side would be very very awkward for a right handed person.
The location of the window is irrelevant, since there are dark curtains installed that can be drawn close if the glare is too much.
Or in the style of Inspector Danger: “Later information revealed that the murdered reporter was indeed left handed, and the note was written by the murderer Dexter Albott. Bob Dinsdale, who was watching TV at the time of the murder was executed for a crime he did not commit. The exonerating evidence was never brought up in trial as not to spoil Inspector Dangers immaculate record.”

3 times for fraud. Is Dexter a good fraud artist or not? But a fraud artist, you would think, should not mix block letters (font) with handwriting. That was the clue line I was looking at.

I’m right-handed and my phone is on the left side of my desk because that’s where the phone jack is located. I answer my phone with my left hand all the time, so, yeah, it does happen.

I’m right handed but keep the phone to the left simply because I hear better with my left ear, plus, if I have to make notes, I have my right hand free. Since the desk appears to be straight, the laptop would probably be pulled over when it will be used, then pushed aside when done.
If Dexter had three felony convictions and served jail time for each, he would be much older than he is depicted. Since we know Dexter is older, he mut really be Bob impersonating Dexter, and the person shown as Dexter isDick faking his own death.

I’m very ambidextrous, but write right handed. Answer the phone with my left hand, leaving the right free to take notes (or doodle depending on the conversation).

@BartJ385
I always pick up the desk phone with my left hand so that I can takes notes using my right hand

I noticed the button on the desk lamp was on the right, leading me to believe that he was right handed, and the laptop and phone were moved. Still arrived at the same conclusion, though.
