Ivan rejoiced, "The city of Tver… I visited it when I was a child."
Alex: Are you with your mom and dad?
Evan: Exactly
Alex laughed: Your parents are Russian nationalists

The car crossed..a road policeman stopped them immediately.
Alex: What happened to make Evan stop us?
Evan: I don't know, stop.. so we know
Alex stopped the car and opened the window..the policeman approached.."Hi..it's Policeman Dimitri
Your cards, please." Alex and Evan handed their cards
The policeman cheered… "Oh…Alex..and this is Evan..just doing an acquaintance."
The entrants..because in military transportation activities
Alex: What kind of transport is this?
The policeman answered firmly, "This is a secret...and where are you going?"
Alex: We're crossing into Petersburg
Policeman: Ah.. passing… well... I wish you good luck
Alex started driving..and became thinking.."Ivan, what do you think is a military transport..."
Evan: I don't know..it could be soldiers or tanks
Alex: Perhaps this was a dangerous transfer. He was checking the identities of the entrants…Let's stop at this grocery store.
They entered the grocery store… Alex looked at the goods and the prices.." Evan..you see their goods…It is the usual one..and from it, they made jam, honey, yogurt, and cured meat.
Evan: It's good to sell on the highway, a lot of people pass by
Alex took a basket and put some canned food, soda, and bread in it
Ivan: Do you remember Cuban cigarettes?
Alex: What…do they sell it here too.
Evan: No…I just remembered it because I see here a section for different cigarettes
Alex asked the saleswoman: How much is a box of apples?
Saleswoman: There are 40 apples in it… The price of an apple is 25 rubles, it is 1,000 rubles
Evan: What is this, miss? He pointed with his hand at a small pump
Saleswoman: It's a water purification pump… Here you can draw river water
Through it gives you drinkable water
Alex: That's great…I used to buy water in plastic bottles all the time
Record it on the bill
The girl looked at them .. examining them… She was a blonde in her twenties
She wears an apron, and a work uniform, "do you want a plastic barrel for water"
Evan: Good idea..thank you for reminding us, you gave us the 20-liter barrel
Alex was putting the crate of apples behind the car..."Come on, Evan
Take apples..you must eat fruits daily.
Evan: I'll take one…I'm used to eating fruit at home with my family
Alex: Take more than one, 3 daily..the body needs vitamins..for health..and wellness
Evan: All right..I'll eat now
Alex: Wait, Evan..it's not washed..we have to wash it
They got in the car and drove off.
Evan: Where are your Cuban cigars?
Alex: Why do you want to smoke it?
Evan: I'd like to try one
Alex: All right..now let's drive a bit.
Ivan: How long is it from here to Tver?
Alex: Um..about an hour... I see most of the village houses are poor
I see to the right and to the left.. as if the villages have vanished.. oh woe
Alex pulled Evan out of the pack of cigarettes
His left hand was on the steering wheel. "Ivan... take that cigar!"
Evan: Thank you, Mr. Alex.. and you don't smoke
Alex: OK..I'll give it a try
Evan lit his cigarette and Alex's… They started smoking and suddenly they coughed
Alex: My chest is burning..it's so strong and without a filter
Evan: I knew how to smoke it... slowly
Alex: Ah... Havana... the capital of Cuba
Evan: And did you visit her?
Alex: No.. but to this day she is our loyal friend
Evan: Yes, their system is socialist, and I see pictures of them with our leaders during the Soviet Union
Alex: I've had enough of this long cigar
Evan: Give it to me…I'll turn it off for you
Alex: In the sixties of the last century there was a problem between us and
United States of America..because of Cuba
Evan: Ah...the missile crisis
Alex: Exactly..we have transported nuclear missiles to this island by ship
Evan: Are still there?
Alex: No, we pulled them out..the issue..it was a plan to be America
At the mercy of our missiles close to it… Then we occupy it by anchoring our ships on
It's eastern shores… On the one hand, a military landing in Alaska
Evan: A nice cigar…I will open the window completely..and what happened?
Alex: They objected to Cuba keeping our missiles with them..because it represents a danger to them
Evan: The current missiles are intercontinental..and I think that what is being transferred…Now.. in the region are nuclear missiles
Alex: Ah…Boom Boom rockets…Let me take a ride now
Evan: What round?
Alex: I'd like to approach the transport caravan
Evan looked at him in surprise and felt fear, "The missiles are being transported by
Military railways"
Alex: Trucks don't move them
Evan: I don't know exactly which one..but why do you want to get close to her
Alex: I'd like to know where they're taking it, and why
Evan: No…Whoa…This is espionage, and this work is prohibited
Alex: Uh..ok..let's keep driving to Tver..it's half an hour
An old black Mercedes drove by with a group of young men
And honked the horn
Alex: I think it's the mafia
Someone shouted from the car…Where do you think you are…You are in Tver…We are mafia… One of them pulled his hand out of the car window, carrying a large knife.
Evan waved a gun at him..the car sped away, "Evan,..it
They are gone, thank God".
Evan: Do not be afraid…I tell you that you are with a man who is experienced in protection
Alex slowed down the car..and was driving fearfully
Evan: A little bit left, and we'll get to the city
Alex found a car parked on the side of the road
An old black BMW. A huge man with a gun came out of it Magnum…Evan greeted him..the man started advancing toward them…Evan asked…Alex had to stop the car. Evan spoke to him through the window. "Hi…I'm Evan, From Moscow from the Ministry of the Interior…This is my card…You may not believe it haha"
Man: Hello… You are going to Tver
Alex: Yes, sir… What are you looking for here?
Man: Welcome… I am here.. ah.. ah.. a car was chasing us.. and we decided to wait for it here

Alex headed towards his car.
Evan was walking around the city and looking at the houses, and the buildings, and the people.
A beautiful blonde girl approached him and asked him, "Are you a tourist?"
Evan: Hello…I was a tourist here as a child with my parents
"Hello..my name is Svetlana..and what is your name"…" My name is Ivan..nice to meet you".
Svetlana: Let me take you on a tour of the city

Dark blue… She was 1.9 meters tall, had blue eyes, and wore golden makeup
Bright with lipstick
Evan: You are beautiful, Stevelana
"Thank you..you like Russian girls"
Evan looked and saw what he had seen when he was young. "Ah.. the circus is still in its place today."
Svetlana: This circus.. it does not operate today only during seasons

Alex was at the hotel, worried and scared. "I will call in the rector, This news is dangerous"... he pressed the numbers on his phone.." Hello.. the president of the university Mr. Nikolay". "Hello..yes..who is speaking."..."I am Alex..the Teacher of political science."
"What is the matter… Is there a problem?"… "I want to tell you some very serious news."

Because the threat is serious."… "Okay..I will write the name of this Mr..Leonid..Alex from Where are you talking now."… "I'm from the Volga Hotel." .. "Okay, I'll call an administrator In the Ministry of Defense for questions on this serious topic.. maybe all territories and from Russia Under this threat."… Nikolai hung up. Alex felt happy to speak with the rector, he decided to go down and have a walk on the edges of the Volga River.
Evan was in Svitlana's apartment. She was the only one of her parents and lived with them. "Your room is beautiful…Pictures of roses decorate all the walls."… She locked the door to her room with the key and looked at him with lust seduced and moved towards and kissed him.
Alex was walking along the edges of the Volga.. and he was walking around the townspeople.. he sat on a chair. a long railing.. watching the river.. old people strolling with their grandchildren.. women and youth a girl passed by with a cart..in which was a baby boy..a man was standing, drinking carbonated water and smoking, and a young man waved his hand at Alex, saying, "You're welcome!"… It was three young children playing with a small red plastic ball… Alex's phone rang… "Hello… Alex.. that's you...I called the official..and he said that this is a personal act..we have nothing to do with it..that the crossing commander, he is responsible and we will be punished for what he did." "Ah..thank you..no problem now..."
"Alex, when you finish your vacation, visit me.".
"Thank you…I wish you success".
Alex started thinking..did they mock me..did Mr. Leonid lie or joke…
Is the university president joking? I don't know.
