In place of the Kiev a Russ is now a great and free Ukraine, the capital of Kiev in Ukraine. You came to us from the stern harsh time. We have to send you to your age. You will live there and spend (or rather had) kind of life, which we know from the history of ancient peoples. And now I sit in this chair. Nikolka obediently sat on the specified Novichkova place, laid his head on soft pillows, comfortable in the hand rails… and soon, swaying in the basket bishop and opened his eyes.
– What’s wrong? – Pushing him Liling – You slept like a dead man, I even scared.
– I saw a wonderful dream. – Answered Nikolka.
– Daddy, Daddy, he spoke! He spoke! – The girl clapped her hands and burst into happy merry laughter of children…
I opened my eyes. Nearby, snuffling in his sleep, his wife was still asleep. I tried to remember how I know Volodya Novichkova. I realized that from this dream I should not sleep. Quietly got out of bed, I entered the kitchen. They hang on a wall clock, six in the morning. And we wake up at seven. I cooked myself a strong coffee and began to think about Novichkova. Of course, we are living together in the same room in a student dormitory. He is still there; the institute began to study the problems of temporary abnormalities. Somehow remembered brought an article about the Philadelphia experiment, conducted by the destroyer estimated Einstein. And now, probably already in what may be a secret research institutes, conducts its research in cosmic space time molehills.

Then I jumped out of bed, ran to him to remind him that he is not alone in the room, though it was once necessary to sleep well. His bed was empty, slammed the door in the hallway. I guessed that at three o’clock Volodya ran out into the sink to wash your hands. I wanted to sleep, and I literally fell asleep as soon as my body touched the sheets warm my bed. At the same time Beginners flew into the room and shrieked loudly, you shouted:
– Understand Valentin, I understand the principle of a time machine! You see! – He shook me by the shoulders, trying to wake up. Oh, as I then wanted to give him the ass and throw it out of the room. He had muttered something about the natural anomalous areas of land scattered throughout the megaliths and stuff, which I have not given then the values. Faced with the unknown movement of the past, but then, and with the appearance of a mysterious stranger in my life, everything fell into place. Volodya was right. And, of course, the development of his time machine he used natural phenomena anomalous zones. Therefore, the principle and built his car. Tram drove me to work, and the window flashed snowy trees Castle Hill and disappeared in a moment-by-turn car…

Lubchenco palm of his right hand placed on a stack of folders with drawings, and continued. – This is your the product in our production. In connection with the identified numerous errors in your drawings, suspended its production. – He paused, looking intently into my eyes. I did not wait, and asked: – So what now?
– And, that will not be executed plan will fly prize and thirteenth salary, will sit on the bare salary. It’s clear?
– Yes, Comrade Chief. – I repeated my question – So what now?
– We have to go in with SRI written out your errors and to obtain permission for the production of modified drawings we, before these changes will be the introduction of the original developer. – I hated to go somewhere and I could not resist, said in response:
– Apparently a former student sitting and scratching on paper everything that comes to mind. But thoughts revolve around the laundry, but fashion magazines.
– Here you go there, and get a handle on this Rezinkovoy r- e. e – M. Walk, designed the trip to Leningrad for a week. High-speed train go there and back.

– What’s the difference? It would be possible by plane, but you know, a little expensive out. Yes, and tickets are for tomorrow are in the archive of the personnel department. Go, you and I sew list of changes and a cover letter to the SRI. – I ran out of bullets to prepare for the trip. His wife called to work, reported the news. Lilichka answered me: – That’s good, buy me, that be in the «Peter». Get the phone to my wife’s blessing productive trip to Leningrad, I was with a light heart began to register a business trip, and all that was connected with it…
