“Marina Polyakova, my potential client, called me an hour ago, saying that she was recommended to contact me by a colleague whom I helped a couple of years ago. Marina worked as a doctor in a dental clinic, and I remembered that I had actually investigated one case at the request of a young man from there, and agreed to the meeting. And so Marina had been sitting in my room for about fifteen minutes. During this time, I managed to find out that her friend, Alexandra Kalchinskaya, disappeared to God knows where a few days ago. When this happened exactly, Marina could not say. She only found out that Asya took five days off from work at her own expense and was supposed to leave it the day before yesterday, but never showed up. Her home phone was silent, her cell phone was turned off.”
