CHAPTER 2

Оглавление

After a couple of days, Gruman was already sitting in a small utility room. On several monitors he could see all the information from Bolen’s department. Gruman could even listen to all the conversations. In his previous work, he took the rule, to write in the diary especially interesting information or just his observations. Time passes, and some observations are simply forgotten. I have to go back to my notes. It happened that the recorded trifle after a while is important.

From time to time Gruman walked through the departments, but most often looked into the department of Bolen. Trying not to give out a special interest, he rarely asked employees about their work, problems. Perhaps someone will get into a conversation and say something interesting. Gruman looked through surveillance footage from Bolen’s department every day. Listening to the conversations of the employees, he wonder if the employees noticed a change in Bolen’s behavior.

Gruman tried to analyze each movement of Bolen intonation in conversation. If only he could compare Bolen’s behavior before and after. Now we have to rely only on the words of Wajda.

Once after the next duty Gruman was going to go to the cottage on his old Peugeot, when Mark, an employee of Bolen’s department, approached him.

– Which way are you going, if not a secret? – He asked.

– In the direction of the village of Ozernaya, it is about twenty kilometers from here – said Gruman.

– Very good – Mark said. Could not have a lift to Sosnovka, it is on the way.

– Why not – Gruman replied. Have a seat.

It is hard to drive around the city in the evening, It is a traffic jam. Gruman thought that it was wrong to keep quiet all the way.

– Have you been working for the company for a long time? – Gruman asked to start the conversation somehow.

– Three years – Mark said. Before that, I worked at the institute. Then the salary is higher, so moved on. The work is more diverse and interesting.

– It is interesting, but it is very responsible – Gruman said. The authorities must be strictly watching you.

– I do not know how to say it – Mark continued. Previously, our boss Bolen was more precise, but recently somehow, everything has changed. He walks some sullen, little communicates with the staff. If before I delved into every little thing, now he has completely moved away from it.

– Have such changes taken place for a long time? – Gruman asked.

– It has been three months- Mark said. At first, I thought maybe the family was in a problem. However, someone told me he was not married and never was. I think maybe he met some woman, and she turned him down. I do not think so either. I do not know. What also surprised me, about once a week makes his employees leave the premises under the pretext of airing it. However, he closes the door and stays inside. I know it is a good thing, but it has not happened before.

– But in life, things happen. Maybe he has a mental trauma, maybe his parents are sick – Gruman continued.

– Everything may be, but I do not know. I am not going to delve into anyone’s problems. Work is work. I am not interested in anything else. The team is very good and that is the main thing.

– Here is your Sosnovka – Gruman said pointing to the pointer. Where can I drop you off?

– There will be a fire station on the right, and that is where I will go out.
