he is a daughter's joke. - Now I will call let them come and take them.
- Ok dad, can I lie down a bit? And then I have some kind of weakness. - Said Nastya stacking in bed.
He approached her, stroked her hair, kissed her on the forehead and said in a quiet voice:
- Of course lie down, I will try not to make noise.
Vasily left the room of the daughter, and closed the door behind him.

Entered the hall, there was almost the same situation. Only the scarecrow and the sturdy one only changed the pose in which he left them. He picked up the phone and called the police. They arrived in three minutes. The duty investigator was his long-time army friend Konstantin Petrovich Lykov. Who turned to Vasily from the doorway:
- Vasya is healthy! - and stretched out his hand to shake. - Do not tell me that you were attacked by bandits ...
- Healthy Bone. - Said Vasily shaking the outstretched hand. - Immediately visible detective. I guessed right off the bat.
“Aha,” Kostya began with irony, “now tell me more that they attacked you and everyone is alive.”
- I guess again. - Vasily said with a smile.
- You surprised me twice, but this is not possible for everyone lately. Well, let's go look at the victims. - Kostya said stepping behind Vasily.
Going into the hall Kostya whistled:
- Wow, yes, you hooligans visited, see what a mess they set up for you here. So who is here with us? - He began to pull off the mask with their heads. Pulling off the mask from the burly man, he said. - Bah, all familiar faces! Stas, the month has not passed since you lay back ... You can see in the zone better, I will take care, we will return you there.
I pulled the mask off the Bugai:
- This is apparently a guest performer, and from memory seems to be wanted. Well, then who? - He went to the skinny and pulled off the mask. - Oh, Grishka! Well you are a bully and rasshodyay, serious business pulled? You haven’t got to the zone yet, and already in the parasha face you lie ... Do you have any idea what will happen to you on the zone? Okay, pack! - He gave the order.

He and Vasily stepped aside, and Kostya, without any boasting, asked:
- Nastya was home? She is alright?
- Then you understand what a thing ...
And Vasily told Kosta how it all happened. Kostya listened, then said:
- I'm amazed at your endurance. I would kill them.
- Then I sit, even if not much. And she will be alone?
- Well, yes, yes, yes ... - Kostya agreed with him. “Will Nastya give testimony or am I going to release them only as robbery?”
- I don’t know, I’ll have to ask her, she lay down and apparently fell asleep.
- I will testify. Hello Uncle Bone. - At the door stood Nastya. - I almost fell asleep and did not hear you entered.
- Hi Nastya. - Kostya greeted. - Nastya, and not change your mind? After all, besides the testimony on the paper, you will have to repeat them in court. Can you ring out?

“Don't worry, Uncle Bone,” she came up and hugged her father, smiled and continued, “Dad explained everything to me so that I wouldn’t have any complexes.”
- Well, that's fine, close the full program. - Also with a smile, Kostya concluded. And already seriously addressed Vasily. - Do you have any suspicions who could give a tip?
- I think there is. This is Yuri Voronin.
- Yurka Voronin?
- Yes, he brought me home with money. Check their weave, if there will be his number, it means for sure.
- Check it out. Although I would not like to have him, since we know each other since childhood, he is not a bad man ...
In response, Vasily only shrugged.
“Okay, rest now, and put off all the formalities for tomorrow.”
Kostya shook hands with Vasily, said goodbye to Nastya and left.

“You and I haven't had dinner yet.” - Said with a smile Vasily daughter. - Let's warm up the soup, I want to eat terribly.
- I'll pour out this soup and cook another. Dad, eat fried eggs with sausage, I'll cook it for you now.
- I am not against scrambled eggs, just explain what's the matter?
- I disdain, suddenly they came here and spat in a borsch? And in general, until the general cleaning is done, everything will be disgusting to touch after them ...
- Maybe you're right ... Then I suggest to go to a restaurant. Time though and later, but I know a couple who work at this time.
- To go with such a nose and such eyes?
- Come on, everyone will think that I have such a young and beautiful companion, and will envy me. And I will be proud of you.- Father said cheerfully.
The idea of ​​being a father’s companion, though not a real one, really liked Nastya. And she no longer arguing, and without asking questions, ran to dress. He also went and changed clothes for the restaurant. They got out, caught a taxi, and after five minutes were on the spot. Got out of the taxi, and went to the restaurant.
- Dad, hug me around the waist, as usual go with your friends. - Asked Nastya cheerful voice.
- Well, - the father answered hugging her waist, - only tomorrow you will meet me with the young man who made a woman out of my girl.
“It won't work,” Nastya said, still cheerfully, “we parted long ago, I have another one now.”
- Well then, with this other. - The father continued to insist.
- Well, Dad, unless of course I decide to part with him in the morning ...
Their dialogue is the music of the restaurant. What happened next, but that's another story.
