Everyone, leave the square!

There's that captain Losenok in the 13th division.

He has a twin brother.

- He always manages to get into trouble. - Is he a thug?

Nah, just stupid.

I mean, he is smart but dumb.

It's a problem for Losenok and you can push him a bit.

Today they buried our friend. Your colleagues tried to set people up.

They are under investigation. That doesn't concern me.

There's a theory that people smuggled contraband by your highway.

One of them had explosives in the car.

I won't snitch on my buddies.

They said you have a twin brother.

You can't deal with the reptiloids.

They'll smile at you.

They'll pat you on the back.

In the end they'll still devour you. It's just in their nature.

We'll put your brother under state protection.

- Are you ready to cooperate? - Fine.

Captain Zelenov, look at this person.

Do you know him?

SEMYON SHKALIKOV SERGEY UGRYUMOV

SERGEY GAZAROV ANDREY SOKOLOV

VIKTORIYA TOLSTOGANOVA DARIA MOROZ

MIKHAIL EFREMOV MIKHAIL TRUKHIN

DEPARTMENT

He is a jeep driver, license plate O-530-TA.

We were following that jeep with captain Shevchuk.

Lada 2109 - can't remember the plate number - drove into the ditch because of him.

That's enough. Sign here.

Take the detainee away.

Hold up, why are you taking the detainee away?

We agreed that captain Zelenov would question him.

- We agreed to cooperate. - We keep our promises.

Here are answers for all your questions.

Please appreciate our level of trust.

Well, we met on the second concrete ring road.

They pulled up... I don't know their names. Seemed russian.

They were driving an Audi A8.

Can't remember the license plate.

One thing I do remember though...

They had a dent on the rear fender.

I don't know what their cargo was.

They put some tarp in the trunk.

They said they would follow me and then pay me when I get to destination.

We drove off, they lagged behind at the crossing.

I passed through the crossing, they didn't. I drove slowly.

I said they were escorting me.

Captain Korovin and some sergeant, can't remember his last name.

I know them, basically.

They told me to go and help them.

What could I say? No, they didn't search the car.

They just told me to drive to the spot.

I used to work there before.

I mean it was not my first set up.

I knew it would only take like 30 minutes and then I'd be free to go.

No, there were no crashes before that.

This time I got mad though.

They were just acting weird.

You are near the crossing, you see a car there.

What if I'm insane?

They just hit the gas though.

And that Audi just disappeared.

No, I wasn't worried about the money at all.

I had the cargo. I threw the cigarette away, it must've gotten inside the car somehow.

I turned around and saw that the tarp caught fire.

My trunk is always a mess, I have some rags there.

No, this is not cooperation.

They are just throwing us a bone.

Well, you just sit there. I don't drink.

It's you who spits on our friendship. Take your stripes and shove them...

Yeah, goodbye.

I'm sorry.

One more time?

No, thanks.

What do you have to say, Lidia Sergeevna?

He sounds quite sincere.

It's certainly not his first questioning, so

in his mind he already got some answers ready.

He might even believe in them, doesn't matter if its truth or not.

You think he could've been carrying the explosives unknowingly?

That's possible, yeah.

He is a weak coward. Married for a long time, marriage seems to be unsuccessful.

Look at his wedding ring, he's always touching and twisting it uncomfortably.

His haircut is messy and it's been a while since he got one.

He got some acne under the collar. Overall he has that loser look.

He's your typical soviet lumpen.

The type to accept any job as long as he gets paid.

You can tell he's from a good family though.

He didn't curse once during the questioning.

I rarely manage to avoid cursing myself.

So they just put the explosives in his car without him knowing.

And then they couldn't even follow him?

It's possible their car crashed. Or they got arrested or murdered.

Or some bricks fell on their heads.

Yeah, those bricks also crashed their phones.

I mean there are a lot of funny coincidences.

- Annushka spilled the oil... - Zhenya, please...

- I'm sorry, Lidia Sergeevna. - Why are you so mad?

Alright, I'm sorry.

We got the picture, Alik. We know his route.

We just have to look for the incidents involving a black Audi A8.

No license plate but there's a dent on the rear fender.

A very noticeable dent on the rear fender.

I said I'm sorry.

From what I understand, you told your neighbor general to shove it?

Why are your neighbors so mean? Is it personal or...

Let's go on.

I think that Zelenov's theory makes sense.

They smuggle contraband by the highway and are involved with the explosion.

Let's investigate the 13th division.

You will work with the ones who got arrested, Zhenya.

Others are your responsibility, Yura.

Let's not focus on bribes and set-ups right now.

- I'm suspended. - Listen!

I need to know the name or the moniker of a person who organized this scheme.

That's it.

I only got Losenok on my radar, and he says nothing.

Andrey Yakovlewich, what's happening with Losenok? I mean the other brother.

You can tell captain Losenok that his brother is under our surveillance.

Our guys are instructed to use force if the necessity arises.

Losenok was asking for full protection.

He should speak to his brother, then.

If he agrees we'll protect him.

I'm doing everything I can.

I see.

By the way, Yura, was it Mitya who introduced you to Losenok?

Yeah, why?

No, nothing.

You make sure to be in touch with Mitya, you need to have a connection with him.

- What for? - What do you mean?

The man is trying to help you, introduces you to people.

Show some gratitude, he's a deputy after all.

Get out, Vaska.

I'm not going.

They are sadists, not doctors.

- Vasya, can you stop? - But they are sadists!

I you don't go and get tested right now...

I'll have to call doctor from home and his needles might be dirty.

- He will probably miss your vein too. - There are sick people here!

I can't hear you, Vasya.

I said there are sick people here standing in line!

I'll have to breathe in their microbes!

I talked to the head doctor, the service will be first class.

Her name is Aneta Surenovna, you'll give her a box of sweets,

so that you won't have to stay in line.

Here, have some ice cream money.

Come on, Vasya.

Let's go.

Can I help you?

Major Kovalev.

You can call me Tolya.

I wanted to talk to you as a neighbor.

Speak.

Vitalya, I heard something about some cars on your highway.

What cars?

Well, various cars.

And then there's that explosion thing.

You see?

- What do you want from me? - You know what I want.

I really don't.

How about this?

You think this through and name your price.

We can be friends and share the loot.

Think for a couple of days, then we'll meet.

Where?

I'll find you.

Can you show your ID again, please?

You like reading?

Buy some Tolstoy.

What was on the ID card?

Economic Security.

I didn't really read it, was trying to remember his face.

I think I saw him before but where?

Yeah, I think I also saw him recently.

Wait, Yura.

When and where did you see him?

Can't remember.

Why did he decide to talk to you?

My boss appointed me the highway inspector after the incident.

We had our, well, misunderstandings.

They've been loading me with paperwork for the last 6 months.

- And then... - And then you've become friends.

And you pointed your brother out.

Like if not for him, you'd helped us in an instant.

Right?

Our brother is under surveillance.

My men are instructed to protect him if necessary.

I know that, captain Zelenov told me.

We are not obliged to do that, too.

I know, thanks.

Tell you what. You need a man from our special division.

We intended to work with you.

I'll show you a few of our spots.

Then you can decide who to work with.

So you want to help us and at the same time not get involved.

Mister major, I'm the highway inspector.

So far it's been quiet.

What, you don't even stop people for speeding?

Don't check them for alcohol?

And all the tickets are legitimate?

Let's go there tomorrow, I'll show you.

Let's not use your car then, everyone knows it.

If this Gogol-like major Kovalev shows up again...

You'll act shy and indecisive like a little girl, got it?

Try and arrange a meeting.

Understood?

Yes, but what does Gogol have to do with it?

His nose is too big.

- Hi. - Hi.

So?

We found 135 majors with this name in our database.

They are either on the force or left during the last 5 years.

Not one of them looks like your man.

He might be working undercover.

Maybe our Kovalev is not even a major.

Trying to search by his description.

Zero results among active officers.

Zero results among wanted men.

Maybe he's a former officer. What if he's an ex-con?

And why do you search by description?

I could try and search using direct facial recognition, Zhenya.

So?

Even if I use all my resources to look for that Kovalev, you know how long it'll take?

A day, maybe two.

- I can't, sorry, Zhenya. - Do it for me as a friend.

Talk to the chief.

But if your Kovalev didn't mutilate 50 people

or bomb the Capitol, don't hold your breath.

What's your chief's favorite drink?

Blood. He needs at least 8 litres a day.

Sorry, I got work to do.

Yura.

Hello, Yuri.

I'm Svetlana Margolina, Zhenya Zhuzhukalo's sister.

Yeah, we met.

You could say that.

Romka said you are friends with Zhenya.

I'm awfully sorry, me and my brother at each other's throats.

I don't want to ask him for anything. He doesn't answer the phone.

Could you come in?

Please, it's not like that, I swear.

I just need 5 minutes of your time, please.

Let's sit down.

- What's up with your brother? - Zhenya? Oh, nothing.

He still can't forgive me for our father's death.

He thinks it was my fault... I wasn't focused enough.

Your father died?

He killed himself.

It happened a long time ago.

That's not the point.

I need you to talk to Romka.

About what?

It seems that he completely lost his mind.

He found that spy gadget somewhere.

- You mean a bug? - Yes, a bug.

You think a 15-year old kid should play with such a thing?

- Why does he need it? - I don't know.

I don't know. Before that he had a taser.

Explosive charges, self locking handcuffs, pepper sprays.

Romka is the type to always fight for justice, he always gets into trouble.

As a result he ends up in jail or in hospital.

- I feel he'll end up like that again. - I see.

I'll talk to him.

Thank you.

Hi, Vitalik.

- What's your name? - Captain Bahrushev.

Real name.

Captain Bahrushev.

Well, okay.

Captain Bahrushev, Moscow region ISD.

We met at Misha Shevchuk's funeral.

They asked me to help.

Let's go.

It's somewhat of a secure parking for trackers.

Somewhat?

This man is a chief security guard.

At night he checks everyone's ID for security purposes.

In reality though he checks the cars for perishable goods and informs his bosses.

Then our people come here at about 2 AM.

They start manually checking the cargo. It's a slow process.

These trucks need to get to Moscow before the morning traffic jams.

Truckers start getting nervous around 5 AM.

When it's 6 AM they pay them without questions.

Sometimes they have to pay for the parking twice.

First time there's no receipt, then they have to pay for the receipt too.

No receipt means they didn't pay.

So who owns this spot?

I told you I was busy with the paperwork for the last 6 months.

Let's go.

Those garages are where they repair the vehicles.

You know, sometimes they repair cars, sometimes they take them apart.

6 months ago major Potehin was in charge of the process.

2 months ago he died in a car crash, though.

Not sure who's in charge now.

Find out, then.

Well, I'll try.

This spot is really hot.

They were repairing the road here, the speed limit was 40 km.

They finished the repairs but didn't remove the sign.

The road leads down a hill, everyone drives fast.

There's a fabric and a village over there.

It's about dinner time at the factory.

People will rush home to eat.

Which means our guys will soon be here, we just have to wait.

Excuse me a minute.

Mister Losenok is quite an enthusiastic snitch.

Is it a bad thing?

He's making stuff up. We've been monitoring these spots for a while.

What's the problem?

We can't record anything.

They are not that dumb.

They don't ask for money directly and take it directly.

You won't see them here today, I'm telling you.

So Losenok is pulling one over on me, as they say in Odessa?

Damned if I know.

They've been laying low since the explosion, that's a fact.

Your investigator allowed me to talk to you,

because you can help me.

They'll take it into account.

I'm not saying anything without my lawyer.

He will be here soon, don't you worry.

Our man, our colleague died.

And you are involved in it.

I do agree...

You got involved in it because of your stupidity and ignorance.

But someone did it absolutely consciously.

If someone planted the bomb inside his car...

They wanted to blow something up.

I didn't plant anything.

I said someone, Mitya.

They want you to go to prison instead of them.

I don't want that.

Yeah, me neither.

You knew that they were smuggling contraband by the highway.

You didn't know what the cargo was.

You had no idea they were going to transport explosives.

Of course I had no idea. We don't search the cars.

Listen, if there are 2 cars on the highway.

How can you know when you can stop and search one of them but not the other?

One of the leaders comes over.

He talks to the officer, gives him money and license plate numbers.

Yeah, that's the guy we need, Mitya.

We need his description, everything.

Which leader do you need?

The previous one or this new one?

Describe both.

When did he replace the old one?

About 6 months ago.

Was there some conflict?

Oh yeah, there was some conflict.

I almost pissed my pants then.

Did you see their showdown?

Good afternoon, I'm the lawyer.

Revnivtseva Alena Ivanovna, Moscow bar association.

I need his description. What does he look like?

Well, he's a regular guy.

Introduce yourself, please.

Alena Ivanovna...

I ask you to be quiet, it's in your best interests, which I'm going to represent.

I didn't hear your name and rank.

- Evgeniy Mikhailovich. - Your name is not enough.

Who are you and what's your basis for questioning him?

- I'm not questioning him, we're just talking. - You conversation is over, mister major.

You know my rank?

The investigator gave you verbal permission to talk to him.

Which makes it informal.

- I have a rogatory letter. - Show it to me!

- Alena... - Ivanovna.

- Honey... - "Dear" will do. I can take it from here.

The crime must be solved, the perp must be punished.

That's true, but it should be done by the book.

- You want to strangle me? - No, to kiss you.

Strangling would be better. You should go, mister major.

What wiretapping, Zelenov?

Don't listen to my mom.

Women are like that.

Roma, I need to go to work.

Go, then.

Tell me everything this instant or I'm calling Zhuzhukalo.

Well?

Some jerk is stealing the mobile phones from the dressing room.

I know who the jerk is.

But I don't have any proof.

- It's a regular case. - A regular criminal case, Roma.

Zelenov, you are doing it every day.

I'm doing it legally in accordance with the law.

What if it's an operational necessity?

Just don't give me your crap, remember who my uncle was?

Alright, suppose you find that jerk. What next?

I'll gun him down.

It's a joke, Zelenov.

Bad joke, Roma.

Where did you get the equipment?

- Stole from your uncle? - I'm not an idiot.

I do everything carefully, never any harm done.

Everything is legal.

Well, not legal.

- Let me go! - Don't get cheeky.

Alright, Zelenov, when you are interrogating someone...

...And he says nothing. Will you slap him?

Don't lie to me, Zelenov.

New teeth?

I'll be damned...

Got yourself some new teeth, Ivanov?

Ivanov!

Congratulations, Lenya.

What?

What's the matter, Lenya?

What?

What?

It got stuck?

Lelik, you just...

Or just yawn!

That's what you get for putting chinese crap in your mouth.

Should've gotten japanese...

Where are you going?

Let's go, Lenya.

Lenya, Lenya!

Wait, where are you going?

Excuse us.

I heard about the contraband.

I rarely worked on the highway personally.

Then they made me a duty officer.

I was at the traffic cops post.

Sergeant Kotelnik was talking to some guy.

I asked what was going on. That guy left.

They subtly let me know that I should just go. "It's fine, captain".

I decided to stay. The trucks started coming up.

- How many? - A lot.

I pulled them over and started checking them.

Got a call from the chief, he was screaming at me.

Told him to go screw himfself.

- The next day they tried to beat me up. - Who?

I don't know, it was dark.

Then I started getting calls.

The boss threatened me with an improper conduct warning.

- I called the ISD. - Who did you call?

Captain Bahrushev.

We even met once.

Then they said my brother was in danger.

Who said that? We need the details, Losenok.

It was the chief again. He asked me to forget about the improper conduct warning.

He said he didn't know what to do with Vaska. I said I knew the solution.

"Let me just do the paperwork, I won't bother anyone".

Well, we agreed on that.

Alright, let's get back to the guy who talked to Kotelnik,

You remember his face?

- Not really. - Try harder, Vitaliy.

I need to find the leader.

He wasn't a leader, just some small fry.

Do we not understand each other?

Explain.

Their cargo costs millions. They do it military style.

They have new pawns every weak.

Their boss, the leader, only appears in extreme situations.

- How do you know that? - I just know.

You realize I want to live?

I have a brother.

We gotta do something.

You're right, Losenok.

Thing is, we are watching your brother, while you keep lying to Zelenov.

And you only feed us bits and pieces.

Here.

This is the list of all employees I talked to.

Existing and former ones.

They are ready to give you the real facts.

Pay special attention to the ones who were dismissed.

For the most part they are regular, honest guys, and they paid for it.

I'd appreciate if you get them back on the force.

Just don't harm them, I hope you understand that.

Have you seen major Kovalev?

No.

I'm losing my mind already.

I can't remember where I met him.

Losenok rattled some cages. I'm not sure if anyone asked him to do it.

- It was a real mess, though. - What kind of a mess?

I don't really know.

I had to go identify bodies 6 times when they started showing up.

You know, not much left of the bodies after the long winter.

Birds, mice, snow...

I identified 3 of them. Pawns from the previous group.

They were strangled with nooses.

Just like in Chicago.

- I wan't talk about my bosses. - Why?

I just won't.

I'll talk about the trucks.

Yeah, there were trucks.

I haven't seen them after the explosion, though.

It just stopped.

Previous owners clung to the highway.

Their leader was some kind of a tough guy - Kolya.

I never met him, but they say he is 2 meters tall.

He is from spetsnaz apparently.

They say he started a war.

Then his Mercedes hit a Kamaz on the highway.

That was the end of Kolya.

What's his last name? Any traits?

I don't know. Just some Kolya.

Who the hell knows who he was...

How do you know that?

Listen...

Losenok asked me to talk to you. I talked to you, that's it.

It was simple, nothing fancy.

If you behave yourself, they give you a good spot.

Give them their share and go home.

If you start to act up or don't get rid of a traffic jam before the procession - it's over.

For the next 6 months minimum wage is all you'll get.

All you can do is sit here and collect money for ransom.

What ransom?

Well, you have to pay them to become a good boy again.

I lived like that for a minute, then just left the job.

Have you seen this person?

No, I haven't.

So it all started with captain Losenok valiantly inspecting some trucks.

I wonder who did those trucks belong to?

To the new owner or the old one?

But it doesn't really matter.

What matters is that there was one owner, then another one replaced him.

First one didn't want to back down, but he wasn't strong enough. Then what?

He tried setting the new owner up.

You find some indiscriminate idiot with a jeep.

Load up the jeep with explosives.

And send it to the destination without any cover. What's our goal?

We hope that he'll get stopped.

Since there's no cover, they'll inspect the car.

They'll find the explosives and immediately call the FSB.

Yeah, explosives.

That means terrorism. They'll start digging.

They'll talk to our driver.

They'll listen to what his bosses have to say.

Then they'll call us.

We'll start investigating the special division.

In the end we'll scare the new owner away and everyone's going to be happy.

The highway is free for grabs.

So the first owner got his wish.

Not exactly.

There was an explosion, a few men died, including our colleague.

Naturally, we will not rest until the culprit is behind bars.

Am I right?

Why couldn't they just leak the info?

They could've given us Losenok.

Or some other talkative guy.

You are right, they could have done that. Good idea.

Yura, remind us, who introduced you to Losenok?

- Mitya. - Mitya...

I asked you to stay in touch with him. So?

Nothing yet.

Yura, I asked you.

- You think that Mitya... - I don't think anything.

I know that I only partially believe in the selflessness of our elected official.

Just like in communism.

But why the explosives though?

Why didn't they use drugs?

They could've taken some famous artist, drug him up and put him in the trunk.

I like your cheerful fantasies, Yura.

Honestly, I wouldn't have taken a risk with the explosives myself.

This situation seems fishy.

I'm sorry, Oleg...

I'm ready, Zhenya.

- Is it about Kovalev? - Come on in.

Take a sit, tell us.

Well...

His name is Valeriy Ponayotov.

He really used to be a major.

He worked for the Irkutsk Economic Security.

He was very well thought of there.

5 years ago he resigned from his duties.

A month later he was prosecuted for abuse of authority and document fraud.

He had already been kicked off the force in 1998 before that.

His last name was Ponaetov then, though.

He changed one letter and returned to the force.

And even became a major. How did he do it?

Hard to say, a year later his case was closed

and there was no info left in the database.

There were rumors about him being transferred to a secret team.

That's about it.

A secret team? How do you know it, then?

It's my job.

I don't drink cognac.

You can shamelessly put a bottle in my drawer, though.

That's it.

You asked me to find out something about a guy.

- Is he from Irkutsk? - Yes.

Here's his picture.

It was taken 2 days ago at his country home in Irkutsk.

What a handsome guy.

Where have I seen him?

Exercise your memory while you're young, Yura.

This Ponayotov-Kovalev suddenly became very interesting.

Alena Ivanovna, would you mind consulting a poor major?

On what issue?

What crime do I have to commit to get sent to prison and have you defending me?

Have you noticed that men act dumb when they are in love?

I'm the exception, dear Alena Ivanovna.

Get to the point. You can throw the flowers in the trash, too.

- You don't like roses? - It's you who I don't like, mister major.

A pity.

There was also a note there.

A rogatory letter allowing me to question detainee Kotelnik.

- In my presence. - With great pleasure. Please.

- He was in charge of that showdown. - What operation? When?

Captain Losenok started a shakedown.

- You know about it? - Was it 6 months ago?

Yeah. They settled everything, the trucks were

supposed to start transporting goods again.

Then that guy with a funny moniker called me.

Five Copecks. He was a pawn.

Kolya's pawn?

Yes. I haven't seen him, though. Only heard from him.

He called me and asked me to go to the truck stop immediately.

I got there and noticed some trucks and other vehicles.

There was some fuss going on... It was already dark.

I saw some men beating up this Five Copecks guy.

I tried to intervene but this man from a photo

showed me the gun and told me to disappear.

I hesitated for a moment and then left.

Well, how did he introduce himself?

I know now that he's a major.

At that moment he just flashed his gun.

I'm sorry. He showed me his gun and that was it.

Have you met him since?

I didn't really want to.

So you are saying that you only saw this man once, when it was already dark.

So that could've been a mistake.

Wait a second, dear Alena Ivanovna.

Have you seen him since or not? It's important.

No, I haven't.

- But that's him, right? - I reiterate that my client...

...only saw the man once when it was already dark.

I want you to put it on record...

Who cares about that right now?

I want to know if it's really him.

Yes.

Thanks.

Hello, Lidia Sergeevna. I'm sorry.

Which one is yours?

I don't have kids. I don't like them.

Sounds weird but it's a fact.

What did you want to tell me?

Just wanted to thank you.

Your advice really helped me.

It's like a whole new life for me now.

Things are great with Yura.

Or are they?

Why? Everything's fine, really.

When I look at him I wonder how I never noticed how reliable he is...

He reads a lot.

He tells funny stories.

Yet something's bugging you.

Are you sick?

From what?

I mean physiological response - nausea, irritation.

- You mean... - Exactly.

Well, no.

No, that's not possible.

Why is that not possible? You should see a doctor.

Or you could go to the drugstore, buy a pregnancy test.

Why are you looking at me like that, Lidia Sergeevna?

Like what?

I don't know, you look offended, irritated.

Not at all, Sasha, I find you very sweet.

I just don't like kids.

Yura Zelenov.

I'd even say, Yuri.

Are you aware that...

- Are we expecting someone? - Yeah, he'll be here soon.

- Why are you so happy? - Who, me? No.

I just...

Oh, I get it now.

Alik gave me a hint...

Kotelnik identified the man...

And now I get it.

I understand now that there is happiness in life.

This Ponayotov-Kovalev...

Is the leader we were looking for.

Kotelnik recognized him.

He saw him 6 months ago at some showdown.

Now he found Losenok. Notice that he did it personally.

He decided to test the waters, it seems.

But he disappeared.

So what?

They'll kill our captain Losenok, that's what. In the immediate future.

I didn't tell you, but Andrey Yakovlevich's men saw

this Ponayotov-Kovalev near Losenkov's brother, Vaska.

He noticed he was being watched and left the scene.

He never appeared near Vaska since.

He knows that Losenok is working with us. Knows that his brother is under protection.

He also knows that Losenok is recruiting people -

some of whom we already know, since he's the highway inspector now.

At this point it doesn't matter whether Losenok

is a good guy or if he is still on the old owner's team.

He is a problem now.

Judging by these guys' working methods, he will end up dead.

So the previous owner is Mitya.

Mitya...

Or his friends.

You said he's been looking for new security guards.

Why does a regular deputy need a... security squad?

- What's this? - Recruiting new security...

Looking for... The list...

What are you doing here?

I need to talk to you. Has Yura already told you everything?

What, Zelenov is a procuress now?

Zhenya, you don't answer the phone.

You never answer, I really need your help.

You know what, Svetlana Mikhailovna...

You asked me to stay away from Margolin family once, that's what I'm trying to do.

It's not me who needs help, it's Romka.

I won't spend any more of my time on that dummy, too.

He can find another uncle if he doesn't like this one. Bye.

Zhenya, can you listen to me for a second? It's very serious!

Why are you acting like that?

Can you at least listen to me?

Zhenya!

Stay back. I said it's fine.

Did you ask me to run this list through the database?

- Did you do it? - You already recruited some of them?

Some of them.

Why?

He works for you now?

Why are you so mad?

I asked if he is working for you now.

Explain yourself or just get lost.

- I'm busy. - Where is this man now?

He will be here soon. I asked him to bring me something.

Do you have anything to say?

Zhenya, I need backup, now.

Zelenov, don't take me for an imbecile.

Seize him, not me!

Hello.

Lenya.

- Lenya, where did Romka get the equipment? - Yura, you're alive. That's good enough.

Hey, what's with your teeth?

- Going to try them on today. - Great.

Listen, if they screw up again, can I borrow your gun for 30 minutes?

- I'll shoot them! - I'll hold them so that you don't miss.

Thanks a lot.

- Ghoul called? - Yes.

Yeah, I don't envy you right now.

Be seeing you.

Good job staying alive.

Well, gentlemen, let's summarize.

Eyes on the screen.

They found 2 more bodies in the trunk of the Audi A8,

which allegedly belonged to Ponayotov-Kovalev.

Basov Sergei Ivanovich, born in 1983...

...and Sosnora Philipp Gennadievich, born in 1988. He was the owner of the Audi.

Both were killed with a machine gun. The neighbors called.

The driver of the jeep talked. He identified both bodies.

If was them who put the explosives in his trunk.

But, as Stepa says, what good is it?

- The thread is broken. - Why is it broken?

We can try to check their connection to mister Mitin.

Go ahead, try.

Second, all operational materials concerning the 13th special division

were given to... taken by the Moscow region CDIA.

An hour ago the management of the battalion was

suspended in conjunction with criminal proceedings.

Well, that's great.

Now we can question everyone freely.

Sure, go ahead, Yura.

I think they will all point to Panoyotov-Kovalev, who died an early death.

Or to Nikolai Rastorguev, but not the one with a great singing voice.

That other Kolya, who himself proved to not be too talkative.

- Alik, you're saying it as if I... - You did great.

You did the right thing, Yura.

Mister Mitin is alive, he'll lay low.

They won't smuggle contraband, in the near future at least.

They'll use another highway.

These jerks and scroungers from the special division will get what they deserve.

Misha Shevchuk is 6 feet under.

It's a happy ending.

Happy ending, my friends.

Dadamian.

Got it.

The chief wants to see you.

- Both of us? - Both of you.

Boris Vasilevich, Alik, do I have to introduce you two again?

No need to.

Where are your stripes, mister general?

Took them off and put them where you told me to.

Nice, that suits you.

Let's begin.

What brings you by, dear neighbor?

Wanted to ask a question.

How are the explosion and Ponayotov-Kovalev's cases going?

You came here from Lubyanka for this?

Alik!

They aren't going anywhere. They are closed.

Due to the lack of prospects and deaths of the prime suspects.

How about digging some more?

What for?

Alright...

What if we share some information with you?

- Complete information or... - No.

No complete information, sorry.

We'll give you a bit.

Then we'll dig a bit.

- I suspect you're digging already. - Why would you think that?

Because someone has been watching a person from Irkutsk already.

Ponayotov-Kovalev was also working in Irkutsk.

So what?

4 years ago in that same Irkutsk...

A large consignment of explosives was stolen from the MIA warehouse.

Case was soon closed.

But we have our suspicions.

Are you saying that it were those same explosives in that jeep?

Well then?

Will you dig deeper or are you scared?
