Genre – technological action, science fiction, futuristic future, humor. End of 2024. After abandoning Russian gas, Europe is experiencing a severe energy crisis. In Germany, the search for alternative energy sources continues. German scientist Olaf Holtz invents a device that allows one to capture and accumulate gases coming out of living organisms. Gazprom is worried. It was decided to be the first to patent the device, and to do this, gain access to the drawings using the latest Russian development. This is a secret project of the Russian experimental biotechnology laboratory, codenamed “Rider”. The drug was synthesized by an employee of the Zaslon JSC laboratory, a genius with borderline mental disorder Achille Koromyslov, and allows you to influence people’s behavior, turning them into zombies. To complete the task, project manager Ivan Bugrov is sent to Singapore, where a scientific conference with the participation of Olaf Holtz will be held.
