- ... Reporting on the savings bank, comrade general. Operational and investigative activities carried out by the Durov group gave the first results. Analysis of the villi left at the crime scene showed that they correspond to the wool blend gloves produced by the Lysva hosiery glove factory in May of this year. Batch No. 735. This batch arrived at wholesale base No. 5 and was distributed to 8 stores in the city a week before the robbery. At the moment, the captain Raskat produces a survey of all the sellers of these stores ...

- Needle in a haystack

- I do not think. There are chances, comrade general. Few people buy wool gloves in July. So sellers could pay attention and remember the buyer.

- And what will it give us?

- Verbal portrait and identikit.

- Well. Go on.

- In addition, the operator Simonov identified the points of the criminal. Exactly such she bought 8 days ago from a gypsy in the city market. The identity of the gypsy is established. Volyana Rado, an unemployed citizen, is engaged in petty trading and begging. During the search, a party of 83 points was withdrawn from her, similar to those on the criminal.

- Interrogated?

- There are difficulties. She suddenly forgot Russian. Need a translator. Assistance agreed to provide comrades from the Romanian tourist group who know the gypsy. But there is no one who knows Romanian. True, one Romanian friend knows Swedish. We turned to the Swedes, who are involved in the construction of a plywood mill, but no one speaks Russian there. But everyone knows English. They invited an English teacher from the pedagogical institute, but they do not understand each other. Turned to the foreign tourist. The only tour guide with knowledge of conversational English yesterday celebrated Bastille Day and went over. They sent him a car with a doctor. I hope to be able to put him on his feet.

- Act faster.

- Yes sir!

- What else?

- There are suspicions that the senior operator Kuryakin acted in collusion with the criminal and was described for misleading the investigation. Expert Kiparisova conducts investigative experiment.

- How?

- Kuryakinu was asked to drink 3 liters of water. A specialist from the forensic psychiatric department is trying to recreate a stressful situation for her. To understand the threshold of stress at which it is described again.

- Well done! Keep up to date.

Major Durov was sitting in his office, waiting for Raskatov with the results of a poll of sellers. In his hands he held a dirty-gray folder with the inscription "Case", in which the magazine "Sports Gymnastics" was attached. A busy major was the fact that with glitter in his eyes he viewed photographs of muscular gymnasts in tight-fitting t-shirts. The door opened without knocking. Durov slammed the folder shut and moved closer to the table so that the captain would not notice the knoll in his pants.

“Finally!” Durov cried sternly.

- 36 sellers, comrade major !, - answered Nikolay apologetically

- Well, at least not in vain?

- Not in vain! Over the past 8 days, only 6 pairs of gloves have been sold. Sellers were able to remember 4 people. A pregnant woman, another woman of retirement age, a young man with no special signs, who smelled of some kind of chemistry, and another man. He looks like 40 years old and the main thing - he has only one hand!

- And this is interesting! Why are one-armed 2 gloves? Yes, even in July! Suspicious!

- I, too, immediately grabbed hold of this type, and already dug up something. We have only one prosthetics room in the city, which has 187 amputees. Of these, those with only the left hand - 15. Three signs fit the signs that the sellers said. One is now in a sanatorium in Sudak, another has an iron alibi, and the third is here in the city.

- Well! Found? Detained?

- Yes sir. In my office sits.

- Nervous?

- Yes.But I gave him my Rubik's cube, so as not to miss

- I would not be nervous! You understand what scheme, captain? The man puts on a long wide raincoat and gloves for what? Right! To hide the prosthesis. The culprit criminals held in his left hand, and this is only his left. And after the shot, he throws off the edge! Why? Catch?

- Because he has only one hand, and he can not carry and the edge, and a package with money at the same time?

- Exactly! It all fits together!

- Well, you have a head, comrade major! Cleverly you!

“Of course!” Durov smiled smugly, straightening a lock curved over his forehead, “That's all!” Nicholas him!

The major reached for the folder with the magazine, but Raskat was in no hurry to leave.

“Something else?” The boss asked, a bit irritated.

- The case of the disappearance of the disinfector has fallen off.

At that moment Larisa entered the office and, judging by her blooming appearance, the good news did not end for today.

- There is news on Kuryakinoy !, - she happily reported from the doorway

“Let's take it in order,” the major cut off and turned again to the captain. “Why did it fall off?”

- Returned to my wife. Spree man just. Affair on the side. But this morning he confessed. He also presented a mink coat to his wife in order to cajole.

- Forgive?

“Of course!” Nikolai grinned. “For such a royal gift and not forgive?”

- Wait a minute ... And how much does a fur coat cost?

- I have no idea.

- Larissa, do not know?

- Not less than a thousand, comrade major.

- How much is his salary?

- 120-130 probably.

- And where did he get such grandmas on a fur coat, I wonder? - Durov was thinking, but after a second he shook his head, - No matter! Not our profile. Let OBKHSS deal with this if hunting. But you, Larissa, where does this fur coat come from, I wonder?

Expert Kiparisova blushed deeply, remembering how she earned her mink. It was last year when she went to the trade union voucher to the balneological resort in Tskhaltubo. On the first evening I met a beautiful Georgian. The evening with wine in the restaurant ended in her room. And after a stormy night, the result of which was Larissa’s hurtful anus, she found a crumpled 25 ruble on the bedside table. It was a lot of money. And the ass for dinner is almost gone. Therefore, in the evening Larisa herself found that Georgian and asked if he had equally nice and generous friends. There were friends, and those - other friends. As a result, Larissa returned from the resort with a point full of calluses, but more than a thousand rubles in her pocket.

- So I live alone, comrade major. Especially do not spend. Scoop here ...

- Yes, I'm kidding. Do not strain yourself. What's your business?

- As a psychiatrist did not try, Kuryakin was never described. Here are the conclusions of his and urologist. According to the first - excellent stress resistance, according to the second - a healthy and strong bladder sphincter. So ...

“... So, she could well be an accomplice of one-handed and involuntary urination simply imitated!” Durov finished for her, “Nikolai, after a disabled person, take Kuriakin into a turn. It is necessary to trace their connections. And you, Larissa, take Kuryakina’s urine test. Perhaps you will find something interesting. Everything! Free!

Stepan Vasilyevich Poluyanov sat dejectedly at the table in the office of the senior security officer Raskatov. Before him lay the collected Rubik's Cube. "Heck! HOW?!?! ", - flashed through the captain's head, when he entered the office and first saw the puzzle. But now he did not want to think about this topic. There were more important things to do.

He conducted the interrogation of the suspect competently, tea is not the first time, and not even the hundredth. The stenographer Lenochka distracted only, modestly sitting in a corner on a stool and leading the recording for the protocol. Her skirt was too short, and her legs were slightly apart so that it was more convenient to hold a notebook. There were no pantyhose on her, and the girls who were annoyingly white under the skirt of the girl’s panties strongly distracted Nicholas .... Read more →
