Actually, very well, as long as everything is calm and there is only one or two troublemakers. This is your chance to prove your strength, skill and loyalty to the Sovereign. As soon as a rumor spread around Moscow that the Grand Prince was not present in the city, he left in an unknown direction, the work of the Secret Office was disrupted.
When Valentin came to the Secret Office, there was no one there. There was no one at the reception either. On the rack hung a prisoner forgotten there.
"Hello! Is there anybody here?" Valentine tried to find at least someone. "I need to see a detainee!"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQRyBGkcqb
Nobody responded and feeling remorse, Valentin took a bunch of keys off from the wall. Valentin lit a torch and went down to the basement. The steps were very steep, if you fall you could break your neck.
"Nicolas! Are you there?" Valentin called into the darkness.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLaV6fnnP2
"I'm here, did you bring me an excusing paper?"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PsLCe12jy
"Even better, I have the keys!" Valentin began to pick up the key to the cage where Nicolas was sitting.
"How did you get here? I accidentally found out where you are!"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRBC6zxQfm
"Vivian invited me to the bathhouse, where her brothers later descended, at the most improper moment!" Nicolas began to look around in the office. "And where did everyone go? What is going on here?"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMN8OZ4vJRF
"Tatars in the city! Actual Crimean Tornado! They burn suburb villages! They fuck everyone in a row, no mercy neither women nor men!"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMsDLmDlrc
"What?! No way!" Nicolas didn't believe it.
Way!
Seven hefty Tatars burst into the hall. "Hey you two! Where is your boss?"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJu2ZfAFyi1
Valentin and Nicolas just shrugged.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOnZPJwOf8
"Doesn't matter! Where are papers?"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnA9KSQA2o
"What papers?"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSYt6c1KhJ
"What the twerps! Papers on arrested persons, who have been brought in, who have already been hanged. Papers! Papers! We need papers!"
"Maybe there," Valentin waved towards the shelves and chests.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPjbzyzd8G
"Maybe there," one of them mocked him, "what kind of morons serve the Grand Prince."
The Tatars began to look over the papers, but there were simply too many.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01G2vDJvfn
"I. Zavgorodniy, arrears; Ivan Ass, arrears; Ivan Steppe, arrears; what the garbage! What are you doing here anyway?"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9S1zHleqeb
Finally, one of them stopped. "Where is Irene Fireman? We need her!"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiOJwvBXEf
"Irene Fireman from Istanbul? She's not here, I think," Valentin blabbed.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iLseYVl0B
"What the moron," Nicolas muttered.

Nicolas had been strung up on a rack. "And here we are!"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd8UGRYwCE
"Rest here for now," Aidar told patting him on the shoulder.
Valentin had been stretched on a wheel.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6eRghPsjT
"You!" Aidar approached him and lightly poked him in the stomach with a torch.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UppGwJKy5
"There's some kind of misunderstanding here!" Valentin pleaded.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ6SxrzJ3C
"And?"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAovZtoLwXD
"We last saw her in Kazan!"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqTCYyVYvm
"Wrong answer!" Aidar said and Tamerlane turned the wheel a little.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIdhSooqW4
"Ay ay!" Valentin screamed.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oM142PsXz
"If you keep wind yourself up like that, you won't live to see the next morning!" Aidar told him.
***
A young Tatar burst into the hall, "They signed! They signed it!" He screamed dancing.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46vCo2qrz5
"Who signed? What signed? What's the rush?"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWJiCIQ5dy
"Muscovites have signed an agreement! Moscow is now a tributary of Khan! We restored the Horde! Now we will live together like in the Great Öz days! Crimea, Kazan, Astrakhan and Moscow forever at once!"
"This shit will never be! Astrakhan will be independent!" Valentin groaned from the wheel.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY4ARDEU28
"Shut up, fool!" Nicolas moaned from the rack.
"Well, you spun it all together!" Aidar frowned. "And what's next? Baby don't waste my time!"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVowwgJE3f
"Khan ordered to retreat to Ryazan."162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjMGZRaJ93
"That's the deal!" Aidar pointed to Valentin. "We'll take this fat man with us, give him to Lady Camilla, show that we tried to find that damn Irene."
They took Valentine off the wheel, put him in a bag and dragged him out into the street. Nicolas they left hanging on the rack.
