at your service, Mrs...
main character traits

• Authoritative, but without shouting: her quiet voice in the lecture hall makes students sit quietly, and at mafia meetings, one glance is enough to stop an argument.
• She is meticulous down to the last detail: she demands perfectly formatted work from her students, and reports from her subordinates that are accurate to the minute and detail every step.
• Coldly evaluates people: quickly identifies weaknesses - in a student these are gaps in theory, in a business partner - nervousness and evasive wording.
• She's strict with herself and others: if she sets a deadline, it's unbreakable for everyone, including herself; she perceives being late as a personal slight.
• Logic instead of emotion: in lectures, he breaks down arguments into links; in mafia cases, he builds chains of consequences, calculating in advance where failures might occur.
• She keeps her word and demands the same: if she promised a student a second chance on the condition of further work, she will give it; if the partner breaks the agreement, the consequences will be harsh and predictable.
• She knows how to be invisible: at the university she is known as a demanding professor, but no one realizes that her “scientific trips” are part of the operations.
• Uses knowledge as leverage: lectures on economics and law are transformed into a tool for risk analysis and finding loopholes to cover up operations.
• Doesn't tolerate hypocrisy: reacts equally sharply to cheating and false reports - considers this a manifestation of weakness and disrespect for the rules.
• She is reservedly caring towards "her own": she can discreetly tell a student where to look for the necessary literature, or cover for a subordinate if the error was technical and not due to negligence.
• Elegant and collected: her style is a strict suit and a minimum of details, she does not attract unnecessary attention, but always looks like she is in control of the situation.
• Observant of non-verbal cues: notices a tremor in the voice, a shifting gaze, involuntary gestures - and uses these details to understand who is telling the truth and who is not.
