On the way to the castle, Krejči remarked that until now he had not been officially aware of what decision the President had taken. He (Krejci) knew that Dr. Popelka had been with the President of the Republic, but had not yet been able to speak to Popelka.

Krejči was then led, together with the rapporteur, to the president's small study, where the two were waiting for the president in the presence of Strup. After a waiting period of about a few minutes, the president appeared, strikingly pointing out that he was pulling his right leg strongly and going extremely hard at all. After Krejči had presented the reporter to the President of the State as his personal speaker and some words of courtesy were exchanged, the President left his study in order, as he explained, to get money.
