The information about Anna Janonis's affair and pregnancy makes Julia and Karol's investigation focus on the private life of the deceased. According to Elżbieta, on the fateful day when the crime was committed, Anna was supposed to inform her husband and parents that she wanted a divorce. This gives Janonis a very solid motive. Anna's lover, Olgierd Woliński, tries to call her again, worried. He does not understand why he has not contacted her for several days. He eavesdrops on a telephone conversation of Hanka Pietrewicz, a journalist from a local newspaper, who loudly boasts about her article about the murder of the forester's family.
