Excerpt from Madame la Boule
Le commissaire était assis derrière un bureau sur chargé de paperasses. C'était un gros bonhomme d'allure épaisse, à la face apoplectique, un de ces fonctionnaires d'intelligence médiocre, arrivés à l'ancienneté et que leur manque de distinction native confine irrémédiable ment au fond des quartiers les plus excentriques. Il leva les yeux sur le nouveau venu.
