Dedicated to Pr....ss

“On a clear, still day near the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, where the domain of the

Garden of Eden once stretched, through the transparent covers of the waves you can

sometimes see a sea flower, a wondrous creation of nature: lacy leaves and a network of veins,

purple, brown, pink, violet and golden tones, velvety fabric, the freshness of a living filigree

jewel; but all this fades as soon as the curious takes the plant out of the sea and throws it on

the sand. In the same way, the bright sun of publicity would offend your holy modesty.

Therefore, in dedicating my work to you, | hesitate to mention your name; but thanks to this

default, your lovely hands can bless my work, your bright forehead can bend thoughtfully over

its pages, your eyes full of motherly love can smile at him – because you will remain in that

depth where your beautiful life blossomed, just as how a pearl of marine flora lurks on a

smooth and bright sandy bottom, hidden by an azure wave and accessible only to a friendly,

modest look. | would like to place at your feet a work worthy of your spiritual charm, but if | did

not succeed, | will hope to console myself with your innate tendency to patronize tenderness,

nourished by kindness and love. Author".

Synopsis

The story begins at the end of 2022 with a summons that came to Baran Valentin Yuryevich, 55

years old, engineer captain of the Air Force reserve, to come with things to the military

registration and enlistment office of the Obolonsky district of Kiev. According to the

mobilization order, the captain with a group of territorial defense servicemen is leaving for a

military unit at the Bila Tserkva military airfield not far from Kyiv. Upon arrival at the duty

station at this very time, the airfield is captured by Russian paratroopers, and those who arrived

with Valentin surrender. Each of them has a conversation. Due to the work of a sniper, during

the surrender of the territorial defense detachment, a liaison agent was killed, who was

supposed to deliver important information to the command of the paratroopers. The lieutenant

colonel offers Valentin cooperation with intelligence, and Valentin Baran becomes an agent.

Returning to Kyiv, with the money he received from the lieutenant colonel, Valentin buys from

the military commissar a deferment from mobilization for 2023. Soon, a messenger from Russia

arrives at Valentin and passes on an encryption code and access to communication with a

covert agent. What was Valentine's surprise that it was a girl of heavenly beauty with a

romantic name Eva, who develops a romantic virtual romance with the head of the CIA unit, a

colonel named Bill, who is in charge of Western arms supplies to Ukraine. Valentin and Eva, real

name Irina Andreevna Sumskaya, have an indescribable feeling of love, which makes its own

adjustments to their future fate, realizing that they are no longer destined to live without each

other. Romantic and mythical events are unfolding around their love, going back to the deep

antiquity of their relationship developing over the centuries…

Chapter 1

For me, this story began with an ordinary subpoena found in a mailbox, which said that Captain

Baran Valentin Yuryevich, who lives on the street of the heroes of Azov (former Marshal

Malinovsky Street 25, apt. 273, Kiev), must within forty eight hours to arrive at the Obolonsk

draft office with things for military service, as a military reserve. It was a beautiful August

evening. | had just returned home from work at Auchan Supermarket, where | worked as a

security guard at this beautiful French food mall, when | caught sight of a subpoena in a pile of

utility bills. | will not say that she frightened me to death or caused any uncomfortable

sensations, at that time nothing kept me at home, since | was divorced from my wife and led a

bachelor lifestyle. | had no friends, since all those with whom | was friends remained on the

side of my wife, and | no longer had any desire to make new ones, while the memories of my

former family life were still fresh. | turned the subpoena between my fingers and thought that

the execution on my account had delivered a fair verdict in mobilizing me. | began to look at the

printed text on a yellowed form from the storerooms of the Soviet-era military registration and

enlistment offices. Judging by this agenda, it was not difficult to guess that the Ministry of War

was saving money even on draft forms. The next day, quickly collecting the necessary uniforms

of a security guard and right with things, he appeared at the employer's office. | handed over

the form and received the calculation at the appointed time arrived at the military registration

and enlistment office. Having waited in line, he entered the office of the military commissar and

silently thrusting the summons to the major began to wait for what he would say. The military

commissar turned the form of the summons in his hands, checked it with the list lying on the

table, silently made a mark in front of my last name, then peered at me from under the red

eyebrows with the unblinking look of deep-set eyes, asked:

– How old are you? – his voice sounded not with irritation, not with evil, | did not understand.

– Fifty five!

– | see that you don’t look fifty-five, | can give you half as much, – he paused, lowering his eyes

to the folder of my personal file in front of him, and continued, – you served in the Soviet army

two years, after graduation, demobilized with the rank of senior lieutenant? – he asked, adding,

– Have you already been awarded the title of captain in civilian life?

– Yes sir! – | confirmed in a military way, and put my passport with a military ID on his table.

– And in what specialty? – the major continued.

– I think you know that | served as an engineer lieutenant in the Air Force. – | answered as calmly

as possible.

– Yes, | know, – taking my passport to the safe, – that in your personal file there is a note about

your unreliability for military service, although in terms of technical you kept training vehicles in

excellent condition and reviews of senior colleagues are positive, in what are the problems of

unreliability? – continued the military commissar, drilling me with a brown look of brown eyes.

– In one of the questions asked at a lecture by the colonel of the headquarters of the military

district about the leader of the world proletariat, Vladimir Ilyich. – | answered as seriously as

possible.

– Interesting, and what did you ask this? – said the major with great interest.

– I did not understand the political information about the leader, | did not understand that it is

possible to speak so frankly, avoiding the negative qualities of Lenin, ideally only in positive key.

But he was a man and he could not have negative qualities? So | asked:

– Why didn’t you say anything negative about the leader”? – Commissar rolled his eyes, looking

at me, grumbled:

– Found, lieutenant, to whom to ask such questions. Don't you understand that you were

confronted by a "celestial being", a colonel of the political department of the elite of the

military district?!

– So what, I'm wrong, so you and |, like every person, have flaws, the leader, for example, had a

mistress in addition to his legal wife Krupskaya, he liked playing cards and did not like to lose to

the writer Maxim Gorky, and died in Gorki at the age of fifty-five from syphilis.

– I hope you did not tell this to the colonel, because you were given a term to serve there?

– Otherwise, Comrade Major, | wouldn't be standing here in front of you, as if in court, and

wouldn’t justify myself?”

– So, not Comrade Major, but Mr. Major, we are in a free European country, by the way. Well,

as for your loyalty, you are loyal to our European power, and we will deal with this

misunderstanding like this! – having said this, the major again opened my personal file in a

greenish cardboard book with a five-pointed star on the front side, leafed through, found a

characteristic about my expressed unreliability and tore out the page, tore it into pieces,

throwing it into the wastebasket. Then he looked at me, took a prescription from the table and

handed it to me with the words:

– I hope you know where the settlement is Bila Tserkva, and how to get there?

– By bus from the bus station, which is at the Lebedskaya metro stop. – | answered.

– Give it to the commander of the aviation regiment, he will tell you what to do and what to do.

Any questions?!

– No way, Major! May | go?

– In six months you will be given the proper rank of major, go!

– Eat!

| went out into the corridor, a big man stood up to meet me, grumbling asked:

– Why did you drink vodka there, what took so long?

– Come find out! | threw after him.

After leaving the draft board, | decided to get to my place of service tomorrow, since it was

already five o'clock in the evening. And on the way home | went to the Velyka Kyshenya

supermarket, where | bought a bottle of Armenian brandy Noy, smoked sausage for a snack, a

pack of ground aromatic coffee LAVAZZA in a red metal can, and went home. Having made a

feast for himself, | lay down in bed and began to think:

“It turns out that | was seconded to a military airfield in my military specialty, it would be

nothing in peacetime, but during the Russian-led Special Military Operation on the territory of

Ukraine? – after thinking, agreed with the thought, – Still not in the trenches! – and fell asleep

quite early, the sun was still shining, it was still day in the room … At night, | jumped up for no

reason, glanced at watch, the showed ten minutes to one in the morning. | went out into the

kitchen, there was an unfinished bottle of cognac on the table. He poured himself half a glass,

drank a couple of sips and suddenly the roar of an explosion thundered.

– Wow! – | said as | sat down on a chair. | went out to the balcony and saw the glow of a fire not

far from the Vinogradar residential area. Just in case, | put on trousers, socks, a shirt and a

jacket, then added a first-aid kit with medicines and iodine to my travel bag. And so he lay in his

clothes until the morning. At six in the morning | left the house and went down to the subway.

At that time, to my surprise, there were no passengers anywhere. Near the ticket office, two

military men on duty noticed me, and both moved in my direction. One of them addressed me:

– Dear, a curfew has been announced until eleven in the morning, it is allowed only with official

IDs, your documents!

| rummaged through my travel bag and handed him my direction. He studied it for a long time,

then replied:

– And that there are no other ways besides the metro?

– Me in the direction of the bus station and the bus to the White Church.

The military man folded my directing and returned it.

– | wish you to get there without incident, come in! – he nodded to the woman on duty at the

checkpoint, she let me on the platform.

In the underground hall of the platform, along with me, there were two more military men in

camouflage uniforms. They looked at me suspiciously from a distance, they seemed surprised

at my civilian clothes. But my inspection was prevented by a train rolling up to the platform. |

got into an empty car and the train started moving. At the station "Petrovka" three people got

into the car, and when they arrived at the final stop "Lebedskaya" there were already quite a

lot of people with things in the car, all these passengers followed to the bus station. At the

ticket office of the bus station, | saw a crowd of passengers near the window of the ticket office

selling tickets in the direction of Belaya Tserkov. They made noise and demanded

administration. Soon the head of the station came out with two military men.

– Dear citizens! – he addressed the crowd, – In connection with the shelling of a military facility

in the territory adjacent to the White Church, traffic to the settlement of the White Church has

been temporarily stopped! – his words caused a storm of indignation among the crowd.

– What are you saying, we live there, we need to get home! – shouted a woman with full

packages of food items, – There are my children!

– Wait a minute! – The head of the station tried to stop her exclamations, – | haven't finished

yet!

– Who lives there, – the military intervened, – we are now sending a bus there, please follow me

and prepare identification cards!

– Interesting, and who does not, what then? – the man with a backpack was indignant.

– The local administration will figure it out on the spot, is it clear to everyone ?! The crowd

nodded their heads in agreement. | breathed a sigh of relief as | boarded the tour bus. Half the

cabin was filled with people in camouflage with green armbands. On the way out of the city,

the bus stopped at a checkpoint. People with machine guns from the local self-defense entered

the salon, checked the documents and warned that they did not know the situation in Bila

Tserkva, so do not lose your vigilance and, if you feel any threats, return to Kiev. But there were

none, and the bus followed on. | learned from the military that they were moving towards the

airfield where the aviation regiment of the attack aviation regiment of SU-27 fighters was

stationed. So | got to my destination without much difficulty. A narrow paved road led to the

military camp and with a detachment of military men began to move from the city center,

where the bus had brought us, along this highway. From a distance, the military began to talk

uneasily about some kind of raid. And | suddenly noticed clouds of black smoke rising from

behind the trees to the very clouds. When two hundred meters remained to the fence of the

barracks of the town, suddenly one of the soldiers let out a groan and fell down dead. The

senior officer immediately reacted with the command:

– Get down, sniper! – and collapsed on the asphalt. | glanced at the lying officer. His body was

pounding in death throes. The soldiers silently continued to lie on the carriageway. Something

had to be done. | pulled my travel bag, where | had hidden a white shirt, unzipped it and took

out my underwear, grabbed the shirt. Lying raised high above his head, waving like a white flag

in the air. Then he stood up and looked around. From all sides we were surrounded by

submachine gunners in full combat equipment, through the unbuttoned lapels of a camouflage

uniform, each one could see a vest.

– Hands up! – commanded one of the approached, – Follow me!

From his insignia, it became clear to me that this was a Russian airborne assault reconnaissance

company that had captured the Belo Tserkovsky Fighter Aviation Regiment. Territorial defense

soldiers who had surrendered, after checking their documents, were locked in a disguised

hangar, while | was brought to the commander in another hangar. A military man with the stars

of a lieutenant colonel sat at the table and looked at me with interest. After a moment of

silence he asked:

– Do you have anything to explain your personality? – Curiosity flickered in his serious eyes.

– That's right, Comrade Lieutenant Colonel! – | blurted out and put on the table the

appointment of the military registration and enlistment office folded into four and a military ID.

The lieutenant colonel unfolded the folded sheet, read it carefully, leafed through the entries in

the military ID.

– Um, you served in the aviation school for foreign students in Kant, Kyrgyzstan, under Major

General Makarov, right?

– Yes sir! – | blurted out, – And when he flew in with an inspection to us in Kant, he liked to fly a

plane under my maintenance.

– In connection with what, such an honor to you, Baran Valentin Yurievich?

– lam an engineer by profession, a lieutenant, arrived at the base of the school with a high-

quality stock of knowledge of aviation technology, which | received at the Ufa Aviation Institute

named after Sergo Ordzhonikidze, so he trusted my Czech training machine L-29, and therefore

me too.

– What is your specialty?

– Not the main specialty, but a military technical one, it sounds and is written like this:

“Operation and repair of aircraft and propulsion systems”.

– Yes, God himself ordered you to stay on extra urgent, why didn’t you stay? – the commander

asked in a more businesslike tone.

| realized that we were having a confidential conversation, what would it be for?

– My mother was sick at that time and | had to take care of her, so | didn’t stay, and now it’s

quite late for me to be fifty-five years old. – With some sadness in my voice, | said.

– Your country, stuffed with CIA agents, and M16, is mercilessly pushed into a meat grinder,

stuffed with weapons, though outdated, which it is not a pity to throw into the scrap, like your

male population. These scoundrels do not feel sorry for anyone in Ukraine. We also know that

there is a ruthless struggle between the US and Britain over this territory, especially among the

CIA and M16, a complete deal. The struggle for the dispersion of money allocated by America

and London for the war. We are interested in these disagreements, so | suggest you return

home to Kyiv, how do you agree?

– Excuse me, comrade lieutenant colonel, they will seize me as a deserter and burn me, on the

cross! – My indignation knew no bounds.

– Don't muddy the waters, captain, if you don't know anything, | won't give you impossible

tasks, so listen… – And the lieutenant colonel outlined in detail what and how | have to

rehabilitate myself before the military conscription administration. And in the end, the

lieutenant colonel shook my hand and wished me success in my new business trip to his home.

The same detachment commander escorted me out of the captured military town, wishing me

good luck. | am with the same travel bag full of American rubles given to me for spending on

the introduction of spy graters into enemy bins between the most powerful intelligence

agencies in the world, the CIA and MI6. What | couldn't put together the fact that the FSB

cannot give such responsible tasks to the first comer, and asked the lieutenant colonel about

this. And | received an answer that in the current situation, when our agent was shot dead by

an incompetent sniper, at the very moment when | approached the captured base with a

detachment, the FSB lieutenant colonel had no choice but to entrust the task to me, who was

more suitable than anyone for such a responsible work… In the center of Belaya Tserkov, there

was still the same bus on which | arrived. The driver seemed to be waiting for me alone,

because as soon as | sat down in my seat, | immediately turned on the engine, the bus started

moving. There was no one in the salon, out of my natural curiosity and asked:

– You, that me were waitinger for cone alone, that you immediately set off on the road?

– You see, | stood here for three hours, none of the passengers wanted to go, then | got angry

and said to myself; – Listen to Petro, if the mountain does not go to Magomed, then Magomed

goes to the mountain! And as soon as at least one passenger appears, | will immediately take

him the only one right up to Kyiv, and for free?

– | agree with you! – said, and sat down in the first place that came across. At the entrance to

Kiev, a military militiaman looked at me and let the bus pass by the checkpoint, apparently

thinking that for such an important person as me, they were driving an empty tourist salon for a

reason. | arrived home at 5:30 pm. Having taken unfinished brandy from the refrigerator,

poured himself half a glass and drained the drink, he felt a surge of strength and balance. Then

he took a shower, fried sausages with eggs and had dinner, drinking coffee with cognac… On

the calendar was the morning of Thursday, August 25, 2022. After a bachelor's breakfast, | went

to the draft board. The military commissar, seeing me, got up from his place at the desk and

exclaimed:

– You?! You again?! – He didn't have enough words for more.

– The military town and the airfield have been captured, there is a battle with the Russian

landing force and local territorial defense, it was not possible to get into the service of the

regiment commander, so | decided to return to Kiev.

– And what to directly define you as a deserter, or how, you order ?!

– I do not shy away from service, | just do not like certainty in the actions of the prescription, so

| returned home, decide where | am now, or give me a delay!

– For what kind of cases you are supposed to be postponed, | have already reported that the

order in the number of conscripts has been completed! And here is a deserter in your face,

what a phenomenon ?! What are you going to do with you, huh?!

– Postponement, for family reasons, that's all! – in unison with the raised tones in the voice of

the military commissar, | firmly said.

– No, you'll go to my penalty baht for evading service! You know, there is a military garrison for

people like you, near the Arsenalnaya metro station, now a squad is escorting you there, they

know what to do with such people!

– You, Major, do not know the laws well, | am not yet a military man, just a mobilized conscript

and not bound by an oath to the state of Ukraine, therefore | can be subject to a civil court

under the article of draft evasion for military service, the term is provided there, so shut up

your garrison, you know where! – With every word | said, the major's eyes popped up on his

forehead, which suddenly became huge and immobilized from mouse brown ones. And |

decided to save the state of things, hanging like a thundercloud, threatening to break out with

thunder and lightning:

– | think we will agree, – and | boldly laid out on the table pre-prepared 600 dollars, – my

reprieve!

The military commissar looked at the money for a long time, not daring to take it, | realized that

it was not enough, | added another four hundred. Here he quickly scooped them up into the

junk of the table and said in a meaningful and calm voice, as if had replaced a person in the face

of a military commissar:

– Now | will give you an order to installment plans for a year, until the next new year, then we

will think about what to do with you further, will it suit you?

– Quite! – answered, as the master of my fate. And the military commissar continued partingly:

– When the patrol meets you on the street, show this order, – with these words, he took out the

appropriate form from the safe and began to fill in the data from my passport, sealed and

handed me this form with his passport, adding, – to | didn't see you again!

| shoved my passport, along with the deferment form for the military ID, into the inside pocket

of my jacket and left the military enlistment office. Taking a deep breath of freedom, | again

found myself in the Velyka Kyshenya store on the way home. With purchases and with a light

heart, entered the entrance of his house. The next morning | went to the address indicated by

the lieutenant colonel to coordinate my work with the FSB agent in Kyiv. On the way to the

metro, | went to the Velyka Kyshenya supermarket and ordered two packs of warmed-up Italian

pizza with mushrooms in the culinary area, paid, put the pizza in my travel bag and entered the

metro at the Obolon station. Having left on "Teatralnaya", | went along Vladimirskaya street to

house number 32. It was a five-story pre-war building dating back to tsarist times. | entered the

gloomy corridor, and going up to the concierge, who was sitting in a closet under the stairs

behind a glass window, inquired about the owner of the apartment:

– Hello! Tell me, please, does Boris Eduardovich Sosnin, the chief architect of Kyiv Gor Stroy, live

in one hundred and thirty-two?

The elderly concierge looked at me through tortoise-shell glasses, the thought flashed through

my mind: “Antiques, definitely inherited,” she finally said:

– Young man, what is your question to Boris Eduardovich?

– In our company "Italian Pizza", he often orders it, and | was sent from our company to

acquaint him, as our client, with bonus offers, since he is a long-term and regular client.

– Okay, but how to introduce you?

– Tell me that | am a sales manager, our delivery agent visited him earlier, well, and after the

decision of the management, the company's managers sent me to Boris Eduardovich.

– That's what | hear that amazing smell comes from your bag.

– Well, what is your name?

– Aunt Valya, you can just Valya. – Smiling with a youthful smile that a woman had some sixty

years ago, she took a gift copy of pizza from me and added, – Thank you, will you bring pizza

now?

– Unfortunately, no, this work will be done by an agent, | hope you have seen him more than

once, well, unless he quits, do you see what is happening around?

– Yes, yes, young man, yes, yes, – she said sadly, – wait, I'll find out now, is he at home or not? -

With these words, the concierge picked up the phone. Soon her voice was heard, then she

turned to me, – Go to the third floor, he is waiting for you there.

– Thank you, aunt Valya, I'm on the elevator!

– Wait, wait, now there are rolling blackouts, you can get stuck in there, it's better to walk.

– Thank you, and good evening to you!

– And to you, young man … A wide staircase led to the fifth floor, an elevator crate passed

nearby, but | no longer heard the voice of the concierge, as | was walking along the wide steps

of the pre-revolutionary luxury of building architecture of the past. Two entrance doors of

apartments No. 132 and No. 133 went opposite to each other on the landing of the third floor.

The landing was narrow, bounded on one side by an elevator shaft, and on the other side by a

wall with a large, bright window high up. Exactly in the middle of this wall, under the window,

there is a fire hydrant with a coil of fire hose, which was visible through the glass of the door,

sealed with a seal. On the door of the fire hydrant, a strip of white paper is glued to the

wooden frame of the niche of the fire hydrant with the date and number of the inspection of

the object, with the seal and painting of the controlling person. | approached this object and,

leaning my travel bag against the wall closer to the fire niche, opened the zipper of the bag and,

pretending to take out a pizza, turned on the scanning device for detecting listening

installations of tracking, a gift from the lieutenant colonel. Then he took the pizza out of the

bag, zipped it up and hung the bag over his shoulder, as if by chance he moved close to the fire

hydrant and heard the squeak of the appliance. Turning around at the door of the fire facility,

installing the bag strap on my shoulder, | saw where the miniature camera was located,

carefully so as not to accidentally catch it, | finally fitted the bag strap on my shoulder, and with

a pizza in my hands, picturesquely approached the door of apartment No. 132 and pressed call.

Soon shuffling steps were heard outside the door, such sounds are heard from room slippers on

the floor of a fat person. The door opened and a grey-haired, obese man with glasses appeared

in a gray bathrobe over a light-colored pajama suit with a book in his hands. Without thinking

twice, | said the password:

– Did you order Italian pizza? – smiling affably at the same time.

– | like mushrooms, and what do you have? – the feedback was correct, | should have answered

like this:

– Only with sausage from the lips of a desert and wild camel! – such a review was invented just

in case, and told the resident that the intelligence officer had died, and that now there would

be another one instead of him, that is, me.

– Come in!

The apartment with high ceilings and antique furniture looked more like an exhibition pavilion

of historical artefacts and paintings. The portrait of a woman in a luxurious white dress stood

out in particular. The painting hung over a massive fireplace that occupied a third of the blank

outer wall that closed off the street. And the windows of the apartment overlooked the

courtyard with a small garden of planted trees and two or three benches for relaxing. By the

fireplace Boris Eduardovich stopped and gestured to two armchairs and a table between them

with crooked marble legs and a mahogany top.

– Sit down young man, and put pizza on the table. – Kindly offered Boris Eduardovich. | put the

package of pizza on the table and took out the cognac.

– A gift from your company? – playing a comedy before wiretapping, said the architect. It

became clear to me that the former architect was being shadowed, – And how much do | charge

for pizza and cognac?

I silently laid out a check from the store. He looked at me carefully, then took a ballpoint pen

and wrote something on the check, pushed the check towards me, | looked at his note: – There

is a wiretapping all around, don’t say anything, I'll go see you off and we'll talk there, after

reading, | nodded back and said:

– | temporarily replace a friend for delivery, and | bought cognac for myself, they gave me pizza

as a gift, there is a sale in the supermarket now and | bought this cognac at a discount, and two

| wanted to sell pizzas, | gave one for nothing to the concierge, and | decided to sell you for an

old check for two dears, but if you don’t want it, then whatever you want.

– No, no, just leave me pizza, I'll buy it from you, | don't need change, take the cognac back, -

with these words, he gave me money and a letter, – wait until.

– Fine!

He changed his clothes and soon we went out into the square.

– You never introduced yourself?

– Valentin Baran Yuryevich, captain of the Soviet army, was summoned by a summons and sent

to the garrison of Belaya Tserkov, where he was captured and was recruited and sent to you to

receive a task.

– Where did my contact go? Boris Eduardovich asked anxiously.

– Shot by a sniper when advancing towards the airfield to the town of the captured aviation

unit. | managed to grab a white shirt from my travel bag and all twelve people remained in

captivity.

– And | found myself under a cap, and now | don’t know what will happen next?

– But since you are under surveillance, then there is no evidence for your arrest, so lie down on

the bottom, and there it will be, it will be. – | answered.

– So it is so, but what about you, are you now also under this same cap? Boris Eduardovich

asked restlessly.

Don't worry about me, I'm not going to take any action. One thing is clear to me that our

mission failed, and we can not shine.

– There is valuable information in the letter, how to transfer it to Moscow?

– No way, this madness will end soon, | hope, – | answered, – and | have to leave, all the best. -

With these words, | got up and went to the Teatralnaya metro station. Moving along

Vladimirskaya street, | noticed two guys following me at a distance of about fifteen meters.

After walking a little, | took out my smartphone and ordered a taxi, the dispatcher asked for the

address, where to send the transport and where to go. | told the driver to drive up to the

Vladimirsky Cathedral and call me back, and told me to go to the area of the Petrovka metro

station. | walked unhurriedly to the Opera and Ballet Theater and turned into the alley that led

to the Cathedral. The taxi driver called, said that he had already arrived, giving the number of

the car. | quickened my pace and, not paying attention to the car, pretending to be following

by, approached the front door and quickly jumped into the front seat:

– | ordered a taxi, let's go quickly!

The driver managed to press on the gas, and we broke away from the pursuers, who rushed

after me as fast as they could. The taxi driver took me to the Petrovka metro station, | asked

him to stop here, because | knew that these guys would probably interrogate the driver, trying

to find out where he took me. Further, moved on foot moved towards Obolon. Having caught

up with Lake Obolonskoye and on the shore, overgrown with willow bushes, he first burned the

letter of Boris Eduardovich. Having got rid of important evidence, fraught with serious troubles

for me, | returned home with a light soul. And sitting in the kitchen, | began to analyze the

situation with the adventure of persecution. | suddenly realized that | urgently need to throw

away my smartphone and buy a new mobile phone, since 12 thousand dollars, out of the 22

remaining amount that the lieutenant colonel handed me, is enough for this. Quickly, | went

outside and saw a truck in a traffic jam with goods near the Selpo supermarket, which was

located opposite our house. |, pretending to go to the store, walked up to the truck and threw

the phone into the back, right on the cargo bags. Then | went on foot to the Petrovka metro

station. There in technical hypermarket "Rozetka" bought a new smartphone and a SIM card for

it. Having secured myself as securely as possible, | returned home in complete peace of mind.

But my portrait, copied from a micro-surveillance camera, was already distributed to all police

and checkpoints at the exit from Kyiv. |, as a criminal, began to be searched for by the relevant

search services. With my portrait, | stumbled upon the tram stop, and quickly returned home,

postponing the trip to Petrovka to the Rozetka hypermarket to buy a brand new laptop.

Something had to be done about the appearance. And | decided to grow a beard and mustache,

changing my appearance. To do this, he built a beard and mustache from cotton wool, fitted it

to his face and put on glasses. Appearance immediately turned me from a young man into an

elderly man. Exactly what was required in this extraordinary case. | sat unshaven in my

apartment for three days. During this time, enough garbage has accumulated, and in order to

extend the time of my confinement, | began a major cleaning. After packing everything |

thought was rubbish in trash bags, | nonchalantly walked out to the elevator. At the same time,

the neighbor Ira also approached the elevator, she had previously been friends with my wife,

when | was still not alone.

– Oh, hello Valentine, you that they decided to grow a beard?

– I'm single now, that now I’m forbidden to change my appearance, or something, | need to look

for a wife for myself, here you are, for example, how do you look at it?

– Oh, no, no, | heard from Lena how you lived there with her, but not this! – the question was

categorically closed by Ira, it's good that the elevator arrived on the first floor. | wished my

neighbor a good day, threw two heavy bags into the trash and returned home. It remains to

wait until my gray hair grows on my head and the beard takes shape to an unrecognizable face

that makes it possible to go out. And if they suddenly try to find me through the military

registration and enlistment office, they probably won't succeed, since through the efforts of the

former presidents before the war, all the military registration and enlistment offices were not

digitized by an electronic filing cabinet, and my photo is there thirty years ago, you can’t find

me using it, and even through the passport the department will not work, since my passport

photo is ten years old, so that, of course, comrades from the SBU will of course grab someone

for a report, since | have a rather average appearance, there are a dime a dozen on the streets

of Kiev. Sitting in the kitchen, thinking about this, | washed down my “thoughts of my horses,”

as Gazmanov sings, with a fair amount of Noy cognac. And having finally calmed down,

arranging his thorns in such a way as to seem not himself, he went on foot to Petrovka to an

electronics store for a laptop. My path passed by a gas station, and | suddenly noticed my

identikit on a pole. | carefully tried to tear off the photo, | succeeded, though part of the sheet

remained there, but the photo was completely saved. | carefully folded the paper, put it in the

breast pocket of my jacket, and moved on. In the store, the seller brought me a laptop from the

warehouse, set up the program, and | paid $ 600, with a light soul, | went home the same way,

carefully, looking around to see if | was being followed. At home, he began to set up mail and

Google in order to go through the news and reports from the front. On the Youtube website, |

found a news report that Russian paratroopers blew up the world's largest cargo plane "Mriya",

but the details, such as, just before that, an almost homemade atomic bomb, which was

planned to be dropped on the Kremlin, was removed from its board . Not a word was said

about this, only that before the explosion of the Mriya, they removed all valuable equipment

from the aircraft. The lieutenant colonel told me about the atomic bomb in a confidential

conversation with me, we just observed the clouds of smoke from this explosion when we

arrived in Belaya Tserkov. Then the reconnaissance detachment of paratroopers was evacuated

by three helicopters, and the equipment removed from the board was taken out by a cargo

helicopter MI-11. After the news, he began to look for the distinguishing features of his

appearance with identikit. There was no way to find me in this image, no matter how | turned

the sheet in front of my eyes, everything was in vain, there was no resemblance even close.

And | realized that | was no longer in danger. And then it dawned on me that | did not take into

account only one thing, that in a conversation with the lieutenant colonel he said his home

address, and he wrote it down in his notebook. So you have to wait for the guests for a reason,

he gave me a password and a review in case of failure. How prudently | did not tell Boris

Eduardovich Sosnin my address, and he did not ask me for it. So the SBU will hold conversations

with prejudice and it turns out that at the Italian Pizza company they don’t have such an

employee as in the identikit portrait, and the concierge also doesn’t know who came to Boris

Eduardovich, so I'll be waiting for guests, it seems that I'm not they will find our organs, that's

one hundred percent, but if the liaison turns up to Sosnin, then the traces will lead him to me.

On the other hand, in order to find out the reasons for the failure of the residency, they will

definitely send a more experienced intelligence officer, | think that he will be able to get away

from surveillance, and over time | expected more and more guests. There was nothing left for

me to do but change my appearance and, if possible, stay at home until | turn into the

appearance of Robinson Crusoe, with such a disguise | certainly will not be recognized. But still,

you need to go out to buy groceries, but at least to the garbage cans, throw out the garbage. In

the meantime, more and more reports came from the theater of operations. Ukrainian

mercenaries began to intensively fire on the unfortunate residents of Donetsk, and Russia, after

the voluntary surrender of Kherson, got stuck near Soledar and Bakhmut. In Ukraine, the

government that came to power as a result of a bloody coup in 2014, the collective West, led

by the United States, began to supply a mass flow of obsolete military equipment under the

slogan “Against Russia to the last Ukrainian.” Russia's Special Military Operation has stalled

because most of the wealthy oligarchs who have accumulated their capital are oriented

towards the West, where the total capital of their private companies by the end of 2022

amounted to $ 5.5 billion, which the US successfully confiscated, under the auspices of bailouts.

collapsing Ukraine. Thus, the Russian capital accumulated in the West turned into a weapon

against Russia itself. Thanks must be said to the United States, who seized power in Ukraine, for

such gifts from the narrow-minded oligarchs who are still sitting in the State Duma, never

realizing that their time has long ended, ever since the erroneous prestige in front of each

other, boasting in increasing the dollar supply in Western banks, changing expensive Swiss

watches on their hands and suits at exorbitant prices, siphoned resources from the country, led

them to a wretched state of affairs and almost ruined the defense industry. This is what

Valentin Baran Yuryevich began to understand in the state of the international situation, a

noose tightening around the neck not only of Ukraine, but also of Russia, Western patrons of

the criminal government of Nenka, in which |, Baran Yuryevich, was inspired to be born and

grow up, to graduate from school and the Soviet aviation university. After scrolling through

informational sites on my laptop, | decided to sort out my finances. Twenty thousand hryvnia,

the security company's severance pay has already amounted to 9,000, plus six thousand US

rubles, at the exchange rate, this is equal to 24 thousand hryvnia, a total of 33,000 hryvnia. If

you spend on food, you can somehow live a year, and then what? | looked hard at the mirror,

unshaven with gray hair, an unwashed bum was looking at me from the mirror: “No, | won't

walk like such a garbage effigy,” | thought, and | went into the bathroom. After putting himself

in order and attaching glasses to his nose, the picture completely changed. An intelligent

appearance with a beard neatly trimmed in an oriental style was completely different from the

real me, which made me incredibly happy. | let go of my long gray hair and in the mirror | was

looked at by a man wise by life experience, not yet an old man, full of strength and health.

Satisfied with myself, | glanced at my watch, the arrows showed ten minutes to 10. Morning

time, breakfast time. | fried himself scrambled eggs with sausage and onions, made coffee, and

began to eat. A sudden knock on the door made me stop eating. A man in camouflage uniform

and matching headdress stood in the peephole of the door. | saw that they were looking

through the peephole, took out the certificates of the captain of the armed forces of Ukraine,

Rudenko Petr Afanasyevich. | opened the door and asked unfriendly:

– What do you need?

– I'm on the ad, is this apartment two hundred and seventy-three?

– Yes, Malinovsky twenty-five, apartment two hundred and seventy-three, but still, what do you

need?

– | am a friend of Sibagatullin Galley Shavkatovich, you studied with him in the same group at

the institute,

he recommended that he turn to you if you need to spend the night, you have a three-room

apartment, he said that there was enough space for one night. – His narrowly set eyes with a

slanting look lit up in a friendly smile, – My name is Ferdinand Fleur, and these certificates are

so fiction.

– Yes, come in already, there was no surveillance for you? | asked apprehensively.

– What kind of surveillance, when | crossed the border from the train directly from Kherson,

Lieutenant Colonel Chernov Ivan Ivanovich sent to find out why there were no reports on the

state of affairs at the headquarters of the CIA and MI-6, from Vladimirskaya, where they sit on

the upper floors of their service. Interested in their plans and actions in terms of preparing

operations for execution? – Taking off his jacket, said Ferdinand. | ignored his words as | offered

him breakfast. The guest sat down at the table, | began to eat the traditional scrambled eggs

with sausage. When fried, put in a plate with a fork on the table and poured cognac into

glasses. Then he said:

– For acquaintance, and let's get to know each other better, tell me your title, position, and, in

general, what do you think is necessary?

– Major of the intelligence unit of the FSB foreign intelligence under the control of the general

in charge of the department.

– Wow, the direction means when the major himself was sent, experience is valued in your

office, isn't it? – | poured more cognac from a new bottle, – | report! – and | told the major all the

ups and downs with a visit to the resident Boris Eduardovich Sosnin.

– The resident failed, – the major said, thinking, – my task was to find out only this, but how we

will conduct business further, it does not depend on me. Lieutenant Colonel Chernov handed

over to you, captain, money, here twenty thousand American rubles, and ordered them to be

handed over to you if there is confidence that you have not been identified and agree to work

further, do you agree? Ferdinand asked with a barely perceptible smile.

– In my opinion, it is obvious that | agree! | answered firmly.

– Wait, I'll get a reward, – the major got up and went out into the corridor, taking off a

camouflage bag from the hanger, he took out a solid bundle of dollars and a book about

traveling to the ends of the earth, putting it on the table, adding, – for each completed task you

will receive twice as much, and for this, that he managed to survive and not reveal himself,

that's how much, – he put the money on the table, and two receipts, saying, – sign here, please,

for the amount received and for the valuable artifact.

| put my signature in the indicated place and refilled the glasses, we drank. The major tore off

my copied signature on the forged copy of the receipt:

– And one more thing, on the Runetka website, in the Young section, you will find a girl working

under the nickname Your-X-Eva, she lives in the Khreschatyk Hotel, hiding her place of

residence for ordinary clients, of whom quite a lot comes to the site. Quite a few business

travelers from the CIA and MI6 stay at this hotel. She is an excellently trained agent of ours,

fluent in English and the art of seduction. Often high-ranking ranks, not skimping on the

generosity of tips, spread along with solid sums of money and the secrets of their missions, like

those and others, so your task is to get to know her, become a fan of her talent and receive

information. This book has a cipher translator, you attach the copied text of the email received

from Galley Shavkatovich in infrared illumination, and by the arrangement of the letters

highlighted through a thin copy of the email, you read the message, and in reverse order you

encrypt the letter to your friend, send him information to the mail, obtained by Eve. From our

letters you will give the girl tasks with whom she should make contact and what information

interests us in the first place. You understood, first of all, acquaintance with Eva, look, do not

scare her with an excessive pressure of feelings, show, first of all, a businesslike approach to the

common cause.

– What are you, a major, how can | be interested in some kind of shlendra, who obtains

information from his trained place?! – | spoke in complete bewilderment, – I'm not a pimp?!

– The first thing | want to tell you is that she is a very experienced agent who has been trained

since early childhood, and virtual sex does not require the presence of a model in bed, | hope

you understand everything? – Ferdinand answered in a calm voice, taking a photo of a girl from

the breast pocket of a camouflage jacket, handed it to me, with the words, – Where can | lie

down, | haven't slept for almost a day, and the way back is not easy and can | take a shower?

Having taken the photo from his hands, | put it on the kitchen table without looking at the

photo and showed Fleur the bathroom, then | went to prepare a bed for him. After a shower,

having laid the major in the allotted room, | again sat down at the laptop, watching reports

from the front … In the morning, after preparing breakfast, | decided to invite Ferdinand to the

kitchen and knocked on his room. Nobody responded. This alerted me, | opened the door and

saw that the bed was neatly made, there was a note on the table: “Sorry, captain, | didn’t want

to wake you up.” | left the room, puzzled, and starting to eat began to weigh the situation with

the visit of the scout. The picture looked rather strange. Major, making sure that | was not a

failure and that there was no evidence of Boris Eduardovich in his espionage activities,

otherwise the SBU would have canceled surveillance. But, on the other hand, surveillance is

necessary to identify residents of signalmen. From this it follows that a search will be carried

out at his apartment, which will not give anything, since | destroyed the evidence that he gave

me. And | think they'll leave him alone. What about me? And | had to wait for a secret e-mail

from someone who would send a letter to me under the nickname of Galley Shavkatovich, and

introduce me in detail to the work, what and how to conduct my underground activities against

the regime that had seized power in Ukraine, and what to convey to Eva. | sat at the laptop

until 11 o'clock and decided to take a walk around the city. It was my first exit with a new

appearance, | carefully examined myself and was amazed at how a beard and long hair radically

change my appearance, clicking the fingers of my right hand with satisfaction, | left the house.

Having not gone even a hundred meters to the Obolon metro station, when the air raid siren

suddenly howled, | had to return. Before reaching his entrance, two powerful explosions were

heard one after another. | looked around the houses were intact, there were no clouds of

smoke in the sky. So | will get information from the Internet. | didn't go anywhere else today.

From the local report on the shelling, it turned out that a missile was shot down by an air

defense system over the residential area of Troeschina. The wreckage fell on the house, injured

12 people, are being treated in the surgical department of the emergency hospital. An

unexpected thought came to mind:

“I'll find some kind of series and sit, perhaps at home!”, | ordered myself, and with this decision

| started searching. Having wandered around, and not finding anything worthwhile for my

mood, suppressed by the events of the unfolding Special Military Operation of the Russian

Federation on the territory of Ukraine, | began to watch the news. But there, in addition to the

heroic resistance of the Russian-speaking residents of the Lugansk and Donetsk regions the

criminal regime that came as a result of the coup, and the slowness of Russia, which ultimately

led to a protracted confrontation. And a single unity among the business elite and business

circles of Russia, for which, like a sickle in their genitals, it was that the rallied Western

countries, on which relations and the movement of capital in Western banks and all the assets

of Russian oligarchs were tied, are currently frozen. And | had a lot to think about. Thinking

about how generously | was supported by the foreign intelligence service with American rubles,

| was told that the dollar was no longer playing an important financial role in world banking, in

which Russia was gradually moving to settlements in Russian rubles with friendly countries. And

in Ukraine, the dollar becomes almost the state currency of the fifty-first US state called

Yuzhno-Novoukrainka. In an extremely depressed mood, | came across informational news that

another rocket attack on Kyiv was expected, completely fell from this into a state of extreme

melancholy of a lonely bachelor. Reflecting on my lonely fate, | began to remember that it was

necessary to make an acquaintance, remembering a photograph forgotten in the kitchen. |

returned to the dining table and, turning the image of the girl to face him, involuntarily

thought: “I wonder who you are Mate Hari, huh?” …

Chapter 2

Reflecting on my lonely fate, | began to remember that it was necessary to make an

acquaintance. It was easier for me to do this, since | was already like a year without a wife. She

was the initiator of our separation, and the reason was that | was obsessed with creativity, at

that time | was working on the book Cleopatra. | was fascinated by this topic, because the

gueen had an incredible power of charm, without a particularly attractive appearance. | could

not imagine that the angelic beauty of a woman, combined with incredible charm, could be

unsurpassed in the ability to seduce men. My ex-wife had beauty and charm, but she did not

master the art of lovemaking because she was cold and not prone to the sensations of orgasm.

Referring to various benefits in everything, and in everything accusing me of inability, believing

that a man is to blame for the coldness of a woman, from bedding to household chores, always

referring to a lack of money. And where does the money come from when, after losing my job

during the collapse of the Soviet Union, | was forced to go to a security company and work as a

security guard. And now, thinking about female charm, having written a book about the royal

person of Egypt, and even this task, inspired me to do what | wrote about with such enthusiasm,

without ever feeling this very phenomenon of the perfect art of female charm and the perfect

attractive power of love caresses . In melancholy depression due to the space surrounding the

war and loneliness, and finally decided to look at this Mate Hari of a modern spy tribe, a woman

spy, he switched to the erotic site “Runetki”. The Google search engine gave out a whole cohort

for every taste of women from young to adults. | was struck by the frank streams, and offers of

virtual sex according to prices for age categories up to thirty years old, who, of course, did not

consider themselves over 25. | am not a pedophile and never was, so the youngsters that

flashed on the site did not interest me, either like mature women. As | was about to leave this

den of debauchery, | suddenly stumbled upon the one Your-X-Eva was looking for. The girl kept

her eyes on me, as | thought, but, apparently, | was not alone there, of course. Because the

tokens that she collected in her office of the love pleasures of virtual sex rained down on her

like from a cornucopia. Having bewitched me so that | sat from 16 o'clock to two o'clock in the

morning. After blowing three air kisses in my direction, she said goodbye and closed her page. |

was fascinated, to the depths of my soul and heart, and could not fall asleep for a long time,

woke up at nine o'clock in the morning, realizing that | had fallen in love without a memory, and

that | would wait to appear in her virtual office again and again to resolve the issue of getting to

know her. So, waiting for the evening, | decided not to go anywhere today either, since there

was still a supply of food and cognac. To kill time, | came across a mystical series called

"Territory", released on the YouTube platform. A viscous series, with a swing at the concept of

parallel worlds between the worlds, but entirely built on the superstition of provincial

otherworldly fears. Having passed the rest of the time cooking potato pancakes on a gas stove, |

began to wait for the electricity to turn on, which was turned off due to the program of rolling

blackouts throughout Ukraine. The power was turned on at 10:00 for two minutes, and |

immediately dialed Your-X-Eva. My disappointment knew no bounds. Her black and soft hair

was dyed a straw shade, which reduced the appearance of the girl by an order of magnitude.

But nothing can overshadow the natural features, she was still charming. She sucked on the toy,

made in the shape of a raspberry-colored penis, with some satanic predilection, savoring and

commenting on this culinary product so deliciously composed of raspberry sweetness. | felt a

little uneasy from such sexual exploitation of this beautiful creature. | had good money, and to

get tokens to establish contact with Eve, you need to have dollars on your bank card, such a

transaction can only be made at a bank. And the evening,

which |, as obsessed with this girl, was in vain. | could only watch her show for free, and

besides, | heard that she responds to guests who give her hefty tips. So, for example, for a

private chat, this is a show that is not shown to the public, you need to give 350 tokens and

write her a private message, which is also not shown to others who watch it. Therefore, | now

waited for the morning to come in order to transfer part of the dollars to the card and then

arrange a date with her in her personal account, and now | did not want to torment myself with

painful sexual expectations, dreaming of a close acquaintance, | eventually went to bed. The

next day, already at the bank, | deposited $500 on my dollar card account and went home with

a light heart, expecting a full-fledged meeting with the priestess of love .... A lot of time has

passed that | spent at the laptop, fixing my eyes on the monitor screen, harassing the girl to

sexual exhaustion, generously paying for her show. When, finally, the realization came to me

that it was time to start a dialogue with an attempt to invite her on a date. She answered me

with sincere joy that this was not possible, since she lives in Russia, and | live in Ukraine. | made

another attempt to find out her home address, which also did not lead to success, since she

bluntly stated that she was afraid of being kidnapped, so she did not give her home address to

anyone. | had to use a password, and | unobtrusively asked:

– Descending from the angelic heights, I'll be waiting for you on the ground at eleven o'clock,

goodbye! – she changed in an instant, her face became serious and concentrated, nodding her

head at me, closed the site. A nod of her head meant that she had accepted the password and

would be at the appointed place at the appointed time. | appeared in the park on Vladimirskaya

Hill at 10 o'clock, as | could no longer endure waiting for the meeting. | walked along the alley,

along which benches were placed on both sides. Somewhere on them Looking at the damp

January weather, rare elderly women and old men sat looking at the pension. In the end, | got

tired of walking back and forth, and | went to a secret meeting place. A wide panorama of the

Dnieper, the monument to Prince Vladimir, and the pedestrian bridge across the Dnieper

leading to Trukhanov Island opened from the gazebo. Admiring the panorama spread at my

feet, | dreamed about how soon | would confess to Eve in love, kiss and love her. Behind my

imaginary pictures, | did not notice the passage of time.

– You, young man, promised to show me the jewelry, show me?! – | heard behind me a response

to yesterday's password, shuddering in surprise. After a pause, | slowly turned to her and half

rose from the bench.

– | would not sell my treasure for anything, if | had it, | would give it to you as a token of

gratitude for the amazing show that you pleased me with yesterday, and made me fall in love

with you so much that now | don’t know What do i do? | wailed.

– What, the kid is still not married, and you haven’t seen a woman's pussy, or what? – she

laughed sincerely, – You'd better tell me why you were sent instead of Sosnin Boris

Eduardovich? – | told everything how it was, and in turn asked:

– What about the information?

– Did that information burn with a blue flame when you burned it? – with a smile, the girl

answered the question with a question.

– Eva, can you repeat the information?

– Let's do it this way, I'll go with you to you, we will plunge headlong into my show especially for

you, and after that | will restore everything in detail, since | agree ?!

| could not restrain myself, pressed her to me and, burning with love passion, began to kiss her

so passionately that, laughing, she began to fight me off with her fists, saying:

– Leave, leave a little of your ardor for our romance, lover of girls of easy virtue, huh? – Smiling

with an angelic smile, she said, – Come on, | also missed a normal healthy guy, and not those

jerks who flock to me in the chat, let's go!

– Wait, let's go down to the vintage wine shop, which is near the hotel where you live … – | did

not finish when she interrupted me with a patter:

– Oh, no, no! Let's go to the funicular, go to the Pochtovaya Ploschad metro station and there

are a lot of different wines for sale on Podil, we'll buy something for ourselves, okay?

– It's coming! – | answered, completely falling under the skillful heel of my beloved priestess of

Love … In the first wine store that came across, which was located on the way from Postal

Square to Kontraktovaya Ploshchad metro station, they bought two bottles of Asti Brut

champagne.

– Eva, let's order a taxi? | suggested.

– Oh, no, no, every day | go by taxi, then by BMW limousine, and | want to ride with a simple guy

in a simple subway and feel like | was eighteen years old, at a graduation at school. She

dreamily rolled her eyes, twirled in place, then threw herself on my neck and merged with me

in a long kiss. This made me dizzy, and blissful tenderness for this girl spread throughout my

body, causing an inevitable bliss of love for this unearthly creature. We passed by the sculpture

of the philosopher Skovoroda with a knapsack on his shoulder and, in bast shoes on his feet. His

face was turned towards the Kiev Mohelian Academy. Eva could not resist to speak about the

graduates of this institution:

– A nest of the destruction of the Ukrainian language, replacing it with some kind of Zapadinsky

dialect, nurtured by the Fugitive Bendera in the American diaspora.

– Yes, I'm not looking, zombie, it’s impossible to listen to this dialect, where in the oral speech

of the announcers it sounds like “Ch” is pronounced with a terrible accent, and instead of the

sound of the letter “0”, it says “U”, Shevchenko from such Ukrainian in the coffin is already

overturned several times.

– Yes, my hero, we are going to you, the sooner the better, | want you! | want normal human

love! Help me if you are as you are, kind, good, gentle, – she suddenly blushed, and with her

eyes filled with tears, hugged me, leaning against me, quieted down. We were standing on the

platform, having let two trains pass in the direction of the Obolon station. Finally she whispered

in my ear:

– Excuse me, Valentin, | lost heart, because of everyday stress and endless nights of pretending

with the vile and smelly employees of the CIA, the highest echelons of power, who consider us

Ukrainians to be inferior and not people at all, unlike the Russian brothers, after all, we are one

the people are obliged to stand in this war, Ukraine must disappear from the face of Russia,

becoming Little Russia, or simply the outskirts of the Russian state, that's what | think.

– These savages, degraded from the USA, will not stop, with their impudent slogan "War to the

last Ukrainian!".

We were already on the train when drunk five people in military camouflage robes burst into

the car. They shouted loudly on their surzhik, feeling like the masters of Kyiv, and in general in

Ukraine. Their senior, when he was the first to enter the Taras Shevchenko station, heard me

say in Russian “… to the last Ukrainian!”. The whole company sat down in front of us, and this

bat was staring at me with his piercing gaze, got up and came up to me:

– Glory to Ukraine! – he said automatically and continued, – Do you have a cigarette to smoke?

– A young man in our subway cars do not smoke! Eva intervened. | didn't have time to say a

word when this man shouted:

– What are you saying in the language of the occupiers?! And what is required to answer when

they say Glory to Ukraine?!

– You have to answer! – Eva said raising her voice, – Went to the place, and behave in a strange

city not like in your own Carpathians, do you understand?!

– What did you say, whore?! – Shouted the insolent man and, waving, brought the palm of his

right hand over her right cheek. | intercepted the inevitable blow, parried it with my left hand

and kicked it in the groin into place. He landed on his ass with a loud slam against the chair. In

an instant, he jumped up and rushed menacingly in my direction. Eve was on her feet with

lightning speed and with a precise blow to the attacker's temple, she dropped him to the floor.

Four began to rise to help him, but they immediately received Eve's blows with his right leg and

arm almost simultaneously. Their bodies settled into their places, and the lying man, who came

to his senses, began to speak threateningly, rummaging in his jacket pocket:

– The boys from Azov will be waiting for you at the next stop, now, now | will call! – growling

menacingly, and staggering to his feet, holding a smartphone in his hand. | tore the mobile

phone out of his hands and, putting a slap in the face to the temple, threw the attacker to the

door.

– So phones me?! – Approaching the awakened ones, he shouted to them. They reluctantly

reached into their pockets, taking their cell phones, we got off at the Obolon station. | decided

to drown the seized connection in the lake, which was nearby. We turned to the shore and all

five mobile phones were drowned in the lake … Eva gave me a fabulously unforgettable night,

and in the morning, from her words, | wrote down the valuable data that she managed to

collect from representatives of the CIA and MI-6 during the meetings held at the Khreshchatyk

restaurant, which tipsy clients shared willingly ignoring the intellect of a beautiful girl of easy

virtue, unaware that before them is an agent of the highest class. While extracting valuable

information without ever giving herself over to these bumpkins, she extracted secret

intelligence data. She checked how | would transmit, encrypting the information, and began to

help me, which turned out gracefully and quickly. Our text did not differ from a friendly letter to

our former classmate. Then Eva said her real name, that her name was Irina Andreevna

Sumskaya. That she was selected in an orphanage to study at an intelligence school from

childhood, that Larisa Andreevna Ivanova was a teacher in an orphanage in Sumy, hence her

patronymic, surname, and name. She left me exactly at 12 o'clock in the afternoon, forbidding

me to see me off and referring to conspiracy, and disappeared from erotic networks. Before she

left, she told me, look for me if you and | survive, when this bacchanalia is over, | will hope and

wait. Two weeks later, | asked the head waiter about a girl named Your-X-Eva, the employee

answered me that the girl disappeared without even taking her documents from the safe, and

left expensive computer equipment, a camera, and a smartphone with recordings of her show .

Returning late in the evening from the Khreshchatyk restaurant, where | decided to celebrate

the completion of Operation Your-X-Eva, | looked at the laptop monitor with the hope of an

answer from Galley Shavkatovich, and there was an encrypted letter. | feverishly copied the text

onto coated paper, then scanned it onto two translucent cigarette-type sheets, and applied it to

the printed text of the book, illuminated it with an ultraviolet determinant of the authenticity of

currencies, and saw the original text of the encryption:

“Thank you for your valuable information. The agent, having discovered a failure, returned to

base. You act according to the "sleep" program. Upon re-preservation, you will receive a

ciphergram. End of connection! – having read the message, burned the sheets, lowered the

ashes into the toilet, and having compiled an encrypted response to a friend, immediately sent

a letter. Then he put the book with the cipher on the bookshelf, and he began to search the

Your-X-Eva networks, but there were no traces of it anywhere. On the erotic site, many clients

and fans arose with the same question:

"My treasure, Baby, Angel – where are you?! My treasure, Baby, Angel – where are you?!" -

having made an erotic sensation on the net, Irina Andreevna, aka Your-X-Eva, disappeared

without a trace. Remaining in thought in front of the monitor, suddenly the doorbell rang.

Three men stood in front of the door, one introduced himself as an SBU officer, and pointing an

open ID and a search warrant, said:

– You are the one who last saw this girl living in the Khreshchatyk Hotel, who left with you and

did not return to the hotel. You are suspected of stealing a person, so we will search your place

and detain you until the circumstances of the disappearance are clarified! Put handcuffs on

him! – this was followed by the procedure of putting on handcuffs and the beginning of the

search. They ransacked the apartment for a long time. After a scandalous divorce from my wife,

with such reluctance and difficulty, | put things in order, putting everything in its place, but the

silent two guys did not stand on ceremony with anything. Nothing seemed to interest them,

except to ruthlessly destroy everything that fell under their hands. My books lay on the floor,

linen from the cupboards, framed portraits pulled out of their frames and thrown on floor. |

tried to ask them to be careful with things, but one of them said to the other in English, ignoring

me:

– This goat stole our girl, and still dares to powder our brains?!

– Bill, you won't believe it, for her sake | asked to come here to this pigsty, to take a break from

narcissistic wife!

– Gentlemen, I'm sorry about her too! We wanted to get married, but she disappeared! – | said.

– Bill, is he a cuckold for life?!

– And that in this pigsty to live with a diamond and not be a cuckold, is it unfair?!

– Hey major, he's not guilty, let him go and don't start a business! No one needs scandals in our

department, and we will not be patted on the head because of this girl! | hope you

understand?!

– Yes, how is it? | have already registered the case!

– Do you have a report about the disappearance of a girl from loved ones? Not! Close the case,

this is an order!

– But, Colonel, what about my reputation?

– Your reputation is to follow my orders, you understand! Uncuff a suspect?!

Having escaped with a slight fright, | accompanied the uninvited guests to the door, and began

to sort out the scattered things and books around the apartment. The power was suddenly

turned off. In order to kill time until the next appearance of electricity in the network, with a

light heart, | went for a walk, having learned from the reports of events that high-ranking

officials of the European Union arrived in Kyiv today. Now it became clear to me why the CIA

stopped the investigation into the sudden disappearance of Your-X-Eva. What will be decided at

this gathering of representatives of the European Union? | wandered the streets of Kyiv and

thought in this perspective, comparing the facts with the madness of the war that was taking

place. But, not finding an answer, he hurried home, as the time of the rolling blackout was over

and the Internet was working for watching the news. Without even taking off my coat, | jumped

into my slippers, entered the room where | was doing news reviews, turned on my laptop. While

he was turning on, he took off his extra clothes and began to look at the reports. The news that

Kramatorsk had been shelled immediately caught my eye. This territory has not yet

been liberated from the regime that seized power in Ukraine. 12 high-rise buildings of civilians

were destroyed with numerous casualties. This means that this is a "gift" to the EU forum,

which was taking place at that time in Kyiv. These bastards, having shelled Kramatorsk, will now

talk about ruthless Russia, that the civilian population does not spare, referring to this

provocation, it is easier to beg for armed and financial assistance. When will this madness of

civil slaughter in which NATO mercenaries kill Slavs end? But my life so far continues, and |

wage my war on an invisible front. | began to compose an email to a friend, encrypting the

message to Irina:

“There was a search. Two CIA officers with an SBU major were investigating the disappearance

of Resident Eva. By order of the CIA Colonel, they removed the handcuffs from me and released

me, since | said that we dreamed of getting married and | had no reason to kidnap her! After

sending the letter, he continued to clean up the scattered things and machine wash the dirty

linen. So the day passed. The next day, | went about my daily chores around the house, went to

the store, watched the news, and checked my mail from time to time. The answer came after

long days of waiting as much as a week later. It said: “You are under round-the-clock

surveillance. Do not answer us, lie down on the "bottom", this is an order! Try to be loyal to the

regime, tell a friend that you can't have a dialogue because of the war between Ukraine and

Russia. If you need us, we will find contact with you! | wrote a long letter to Galley Shavkatovich,

where | complained that | had lost Eva, and that after the war, if | survived, | would certainly

look for her. And that this is my last letter, because due to the political situation, | stop writing

letters … One day, without losing hope of meeting Eva, | rummaged through the Russian

resource "Runetki" and found her, under a different nickname, my black hair and the thinner

figure | met for the first time. She was very happy, even that | paid a small tip. | tried to find out

where she was now so that | could meet her, but she masterfully evaded and left on various

non-essential topics, hiding her location. From our erotic meetings, | realized that it was not

customary to ask such questions on this site and stopped asking. We always felt good together,

albeit at a distance of virtual closeness of communication … Days flowed after days. February

2023 was held under the promises of the Western countries of the European Union to saturate

Ukraine with the latest German Leopard and American Abrams tanks, under the instigation of

the United States and London. The whole West whined about it, France joined in, and Poland,

like a jackal in the service of an enraged Western beast, asked for more and more weapons for

Ukraine, which it is ready to let through its territory. Young people of military age, by any

means, using various means, tried to get legal documents in order to leave the country, no one

wanted to die for the interests of the US oligarchy, London and the European Union. Trains

towards the western border were filled with men leaving Ukraine. Many were returned at the

border, the country lived in anticipation of a big war between Western countries and Russia on

the territory of long-suffering Ukraine, and, surprisingly, the so-called president begged for

more and more weapons and money from the collective West for this. And so February 2023

came, in anticipation of unpredictable events in the coming days, and thoughts still did not want

to leave the priestess of love. Her image, bewitching me with its charming love, deprived me of

sleep, and there was not a moment that | did not think about her. The anxiety of these thoughts

did not give me rest, | could not do anything about it, everything fell out of my hands, | even

stopped taking a shower and watching my appearance. And one day in the mirror | saw a

stranger with a tousled beard and protruding gray hairs on his head with wildly sparkling eyes.

This reflection of myself, brought to consciousness. | set about myself, and soon, having

changed clothes, shortening the regrown hairs on my beard with an

electric razor to the level of regrown thorns, neatly shaping them to an oriental-type beard and

cutting my hair on my head, neatly putting it in a youth haircut, | acquired my well-groomed

image. | decided to find my Eva again, but the girl disappeared from the Runetki website, and

only late at night, | stumbled upon her room, where the “online” sign was glowing. Without

hesitation, | went to her website and happily greeted her, dropping her enough tokens for a

private date. And suddenly | saw a picture of a ban:

“The model sent you to a ban for obscene behavior,” – like snow on my head on a hot day, it cut

me on the nerves, which completely plunged me into despondency and deepest melancholy. |

frantically began flipping through the Runetka website, hoping to find it. But she disappeared

there too. It was already 23:30. | sat in a devastated melancholic state, not knowing what to do

with myself to get rid of this obsession. Thoughts gradually began to come into a state of cold

reason and, comparing myself with a female hysteric, | suddenly realized how disgusting it was

to lose self-control because of a creature that itself does not know what it wants in a

momentary outburst of passion. | pulled myself together to realize one single truth, that | am

still a man and must be aware that the girl was trained for this work for many years and that

she does not belong to herself, and that a free life for a special agent of the corresponding

department will never exist. | began to orient myself in this direction of thinking and gradually

bounce back. Three days later, he began jogging in the morning, then one day, from a distance,

he saw how three military men were dragging a young man into a minibus with a flashing light.

And | realized that | had to stay at home until | was raked into the trenches somewhere near

Bakhmut or near Odessa, where General Surovikin was planning an offensive, and that the

delay bought from the military commissar would not save me. Tossing and turning in bed, |

could not sleep, and thoughts about the girl again and again began to take possession of me. |

went into the kitchen, sat there, drank warm water from a thermos, and went back to bed. |

didn’t understand how | fell asleep, | woke up at about nine o'clock in the morning and began to

put things in order with myself and in the apartment. Then, after collecting the garbage, he took

it to the trash can. There, a dirty homeless woman in smelly clothes was rummaging through

the tank, trying to find something to eat. | had not seen her here before, but there was nothing

surprising in this, the country was in the conflagration of a civil war and people, having lost their

roof over their heads, were saving themselves as best they could. By eleven o'clock | was about

to go to the store for groceries and again came across a homeless woman. She was sitting on a

bench with her garbage belongings, sorting through them and taking out some pieces of food

wrapped in a clean wrapper with dirty hands in torn gloves. | walked past, returning from the

store and again came across a homeless woman, as you can see, she took root here for a long

time. Two weeks later, | saw this woman again, passing by her caught the disgusting smell of a

dirty, unkempt body, and passing by, he spat out a whole lump of accumulated saliva due to the

stench that breathed in. The disgust was so strong that | jumped into the bathroom after

throwing my groceries and washed my hands for a long time, then carefully brushed my teeth

and rinsed my mouth with mint rinse. Not having time to make purchases in the kitchen, the

doorbell rang. | carefully looked out the peephole, and what a disappointment | was when | saw

this poor woman at the door.
