However, in compiling the list was not sufficiently cautious and did not take into account that certain animals were consumed with wood. At the beginning of all four decks of boat, a peaceful daily life prevails. Gradually, the Ark starts to collapse and be beat. The brown bear unintentionally lands the floor lower, which is why there are more doubts between the passengers. The main suspect is the wood worm Willi and his family.

Miki Muster drew all 15 cartoons on the famous detective.
Nick Knatterton is a private detective who is always wearing a green checkered dress with a hat and smokes a faucet. The cases are dealt with by elegance, with feelings and ingensibility. It is the fear and quake of the villain and the pet of women, very mischief and invincible. Nick Knatterton often begins his deduction conclusions with the word “Conclusion” (in German: “(Ich) Combiniere!”, literary: “I’m concluding!”), followed by the conclusion itself.
