it’s easier to breathe, and the space seems so lighter, and it seems that more of us can fit here, i’m sure that this is this beauty, it will influence our lives in some amazing way, what is known from truth? a woman of about thirty, death was a consequence of mechanical asphyxia, her right ear was torn out, her earlobe was torn, you see, i see, death as a result of mechanical flexion.

well, colleagues, the situation is not very good, the killer is at large, we really have a little time until the journalists calm down, they believe that the maniac is caught, uh, until the next corpse.

okay, let's get down to business, what we have, we have two women killed, both of them had earrings torn out of their ears, we don't count the third girl, yes, i hope everyone understands that nikolai and his victim have nothing to do with the maniac , the killer copies the style of the famous maniac sergius, who could not do this because one of his murdered women, or could, and mash, professor serebryakov believes that he could not, i care what professor germanova thinks, i need more. talk to him, but i think he couldn’t, according to all the symptoms he was cured, well, more precisely, he was not cured , he stopped expressing anger at his father in this way, of course, that means we are looking for more options, what else, there is a murder weapon, a bitten cane, perhaps by a dog, and on the cane , i talked with specialists, a fighting dog, most likely a stafford or a bull terrier, they have just such a special grip , well, it’s clear, that is, the suspect has a dog, or he has recently been in contact with one, yes, well, it’s not that much, guys.

a prop, a beard, was also left at the crime scene mustache, that is, zero, zero traces, zero traces, now, yes, that’s right, let’s go, he’s calling himself, continue working, we’re going to bogdanov. you can go crazy from this psychology of yours, do you even understand that we are looking for a real maniac who kills people, you can’t joke with him, this is not an experiment for you to conduct within four walls, we are talking about real people who may be in mortal danger , marya pavlovna, can you hear me, of course, i can hear you perfectly, i don’t yet... catch what we’re talking about, i don’t

you totally get it, that’s what it’s about, an interview with professor serebryakov, new methods in modern psychodiagnostics, next page, next, i believe that the main task in working with a real serial killer is to determine the characteristic features of his style, so to speak, to try to think, how is he? if you decipher his handwriting, then you can assume that you almost caught him, but so what? how so what? could he have provoked the criminal into committing another murder? not necessarily, these are just theoretical conclusions, yes my dear, it’s clear that you don’t have much practical experience yet, how do you like this photo shoot? this night? they found the body

of a girl, strangled, an earring torn out, the body was found in the entrance, how do you like the style? and god knows how much time we have until the journalists get to the bottom of this matter. alexander nikolaevich, i still think that while the accusation against professor serebryakov is unfounded, it is not a fact that there is a connection between this murder and this article, but i promise you, i will talk to him, please, yes, masha, here it's bad luck, i can't even imagine i couldn’t think that this statement of mine could provoke a new crime, well, we really don’t know how everything was. but the authorities asked to refrain from commenting on this topic. of course, of course, how far can we sometimes go from life in our thoughts? yes, you know what else is curious, even if we assume that all this is so, and my statement

provoked him, then how does this characterize him? like a narcissist, namely, he is vain, envious, and apparently carefully monitors... what resonance he creates in the media, even despite the fact that that you didn’t talk specifically about him, yes, he knows that i treated selga, he copies his style, he was literally offended that he was considered predictable, now he’s playing cat and mouse with us, ivan mikhailovich, and are you sure that serga has nothing to do with any of these murders, i am convinced that serga was not capable of killing his beloved woman, and now he is in the clinic and spends a long time there... for a long time, after all, i need to see the history of his illness, this is possible ? of course, given the current situation, i will make a copy for you, well, all the signs murders are the same as in our first two cases, asphyxia, time of death approximately from 12 to 1 am, also a shower or a cane?

most likely, a cane or a stick, the handwriting is the same, i already have this handwriting here , you know, you know that i’m not a fan of... but we have a third person strangled with the same hands, you won’t believe it, i noticed, was there anything else at the crime scene, no, there was no beard, really there wasn’t, galina lapina, 21 years old, a student at the printing college. no relatives, mother died 2 years ago, father was not there, rented an apartment from friend victoria abramova. nikit, yes, i understood the calls for interrogation, and there were no cameras in the entrance, well, of course, this bastard doesn’t just choose entrances for his masquerade,

okay, that’s all, no, the funny thing is that we already have one in base, a year ago she was prosecuted for prostitution, and abramova too, what’s the joke, what’s the joke, okay, let’s talk to the neighbor, then, victoria, let’s be clear right away, i’ll ask you a few questions, your task is to be as honest and frank as possible answer them, then you will not have any problems. well, something for me there must be problems. well, as far as i know, you have already been interrogated a couple of times, you and gali, then it was about drugs, prostitution, now victoria, we forget about it, me. can i clarify some details that will help me find the killer, yes, be able to scare, well, well, we rented a house together for 2 years in a row, you were at home that evening, and why are you pointing at me, yes, at home,

watching tv, then i fell asleep, then i woke up, they were breaking into tver, a bunch of people on the stairs. stands and there lies this jackdaw, a terrible, nightmarish sight, please tell me, do you know where from did she return that evening? well, come on, come on, tell me, i had a regular client, they met with him on friday evenings and she always came very late, this gentleman, a client, appeared a long time ago, who knows, maybe a month, maybe more, i don’t know, but were you familiar with him? no, kalka didn’t tell me where she picked him up, she just said that he was going to a restaurant for dinner , the name of the restaurant, you don’t happen to know, by chance, i know, well done, that’s not the right

word, guys, let’s check, where was lapina at the evening of the murder, we need to go to... vika said that she met with a client there, it’s clear, it’s clear, we’ll go to some hot place again, let’s go, dimagog. i have a feeling that life is over, you see, i don’t know why i need all this now without tamara, vanya, we still need to ask you something. vanechka, do you happen to know who could have done this, are you kidding me, but maybe you have an imitator, or a fan, a person who contacted you when you were in prison? no, no idea

i have someone who is interested in impersonating me. sorry, i need to clarify one more thing. van, look at me, please. are you connected to any of these murders? no. good afternoon, hello, did you reserve a table, but no, we did not reserve a table, we are from the investigative committee, detective officers from spitsuna krasnoorski, please tell me, a woman was killed tonight, presumably she could have been here with you last night, you find out, yesterday she was not my shift, but a familiar face, and you can find out who made the reservations yesterday, yes just a minute, i’ll open the magazine now, galina lapina, her last name. yes, we booked a table for golina for two by the window. uh-huh, please tell me, do

you have cameras here? yes, of course, but you need to call the security service. okay, call us, we'll wait, we need to watch yesterday's recording. well, what do you think about this man who committed a crime, well, besides the fact that he is a narcissist. this man seems to share sergi's views before his recovery. his motives, everything that pushed him to commit a crime. well that is us we are dealing with a person with mental disorders, probably, if this is the case, he may have a similar clinical picture. father tiran, and most likely ivan mikhailovich , another fact haunts me, last time a beard and mustache were left at the crime scene , on which there were no sweat marks, well, that is, presumably the killer planted them. why, hmm, this is interesting,

i even have a version, perhaps this is a way to start a dialogue with the earring, it’s like a provocation or an invitation, why? to that so that earring starts killing again. are you eagles with faces, you won the lottery or what? not quite, but almost, well, man, we dug up something, well , show me, now i’ll show you, put this flash drive, i ’ll tell you where to stop, yeah, now two people will appear there, so, stop!

well, look, oleg petrovich, this is a turn, yeah, unexpectedly, frankly speaking, it’s a pity that marri palovna is not here, i would look at the reaction, where is she, by the way, and she just left to meet with serebryakov, what did you say, you seriously, mash, just say yes and nod, understood me, together with serepryakov, listen to me, he met with lapina the evening before the murder , listen to me, then carefully find out his plans for tonight, get out of there immediately, i’ll send the guys after you just in case, you understand everything, mash ? yes, i understand, i’ll be on fire, that’s it, nod, okay, it’s time to go urgently. report, we’ll probably sit with papers all evening, again, i sympathize, the job

we chose, of course, was not a quiet one, yes, ivan mikhailovich, it was easier to do science, less stress, free evenings, the conclusion has probably already been completed for today, yes, i have big plans , i’m going to sit in front of the tv all evening and enjoy my bachelor life, i envy you, well, that’s it , thank you for your help, i ran, but there’s no way... glad to be useful, not an easy task, yes, thank you again, goodbye, off i go. listen, well, you’re making a mountain out of a molehill, that if they were just familiar with gaul , he’s just wow, he just used her services, well, let’s say, but this is not proof of a crime, let’s just call him in for questioning, talk to him, mash, you understand that if it’s him, then he will immediately disappear after our interrogation, you understand, we will disappear, we will never see him again, yes, i understand, we have no face, which means that’s why we have to

dig our noses into the ground now , and i have one more piece of evidence, in short, i finally found the ip address that distributed information about the earring on the network, this is a computer that is located in the clinic in serebryakov’s office. bingo, excuse me, marya pavlovno, this is definitely enough for an arrest, we can’t wait for another murder to happen, that’s it, guys, get ready for detention, call in reinforcements, read, well done, i’m punching through the address. mash, mash, well, you understand that it could be him, but you understand, i understand, only

he knew earring, you know, better than anyone. only he could study his methods, he knew him, just thoroughly, to be honest , at some point i myself thought that this was so, but i really don’t want to believe it, and it all looks so scary, don’t you please be afraid, if he has nothing to do with it, nothing will happen to him, you know, i won’t allow it no violations, you know, masha? everything is fine, may we all be lucky, ivan mikhailovich, this is the investigative committee, open the door, we’ll break it, guys,

your mother. over the past 3 days, two murders have occurred, this is the work of that maniac, presumably the same person worked who committed the first two murders in the series, but alas, we are dealing with a series of murders, that is, the charges against nikolai sovelelyev will be dropped, nikolay sovelyev will await trial for the murder he committed by copying the actions of a maniac, the remaining

charges against him will be dropped, as you comment on the murder of professorakov, we don’t have a specific one yet. well, it turns out that not only women, but also men are in danger, i think that the murder of professor serebryakov is connected with the fact that he treated serga and had information about him, it’s unlikely that the killer wanted to show us that he was going to attack men, then there is nothing you can say with certainty and you have made no progress in your investigation, listen, we are considering different versions, the murder of professor serebryakov really came as a shock to everyone, and you don't connect him with the interview he gave the day before. did the killer just decide to take revenge on him? perhaps, perhaps, this is also one of the likely motives. the best department of the investigative committee is working on this case. and i am sure that we will find the culprit very soon. oleg petrovich, we have cool news. go ahead, it can't get any worse. in

serebryakov’s apartment, an agreement with a private nipple agency and a lot of information about lapina were found. and i hacked his email and found correspondence with a detective, from which it turns out that lapina is his daughter, it’s just that serebryakov and lapina’s mother were not officially married, so gali bore her last name. in general, he looked for her for a very long time and finally found her. he also transferred money to her and prepared a will in her name. this is all, such a normal picture, yes, so i don’t understand anything anymore, that is, he kills lapin in order to annoy serebryakov, right? definitely, i don't think so. this is a simple coincidence, that is, he follows the silversmith and finds out that he regularly sees slapino, but why did he kill him so significantly if he could have simply set him up, please explain? that means he didn’t want to set anyone up, he wanted all the laurels for these murders to go to him

, hello, investigative committee operator commissioner krasnovsky, hello, i already told you everything, very good, and we came to talk again, come in, come on in! oh, suitcase, we were going on vacation, well, something like that, or we were planning to run away from the city, so it turns out we had time, yes, get along, you’ll go with us, and i have a passport, don’t even think, oh, little dog, what is this for a dog? yours, mine, so, where is she now?

they put them to sleep two weeks ago, very well, that is, i wanted to say, it’s bad, but we’ll record it, come on, tell me, we’re listening, i did it all, again 25, but listen, maybe last time they found out everything, that you did it yourself i couldn't do it. that glory will not shine for you, calm down, denis, we know that you have nothing to do with the murder, but it seems to us that you have something to tell us, please tell us what you know, and we will let you go, what guarantees, what , what guarantees our word is enough, let’s tell him the guarantees, i don’t know who it was, a man came to me who needed information, he paid me a lot. what exactly did he ask you to do? copy the medical history, he also asked to talk to the earring, as if i were his father, i also thought what nonsense, and then i

realized that this earring was not at all in minos at the beginning, he yelled at the whole clinic, what to do with him my father came and said that he wanted to kill him, although i didn’t tell him anything like that, he then asked me how serga reacted so you met him, right? yes, once, on the site near the house, i gave him copies of documents. what did he look like? 40-45 years old, average build, dark hair. can you identify him if necessary? i think so, have you noticed anything else strange?

they play with him and won’t let him go, it was a long time ago, no, three weeks ago, then a few days later byron ate a poisoned bone on the street and they had to put him to sleep, tell me that you had access to serebryakov’s computer. i connected to him the remote serebryakov didn’t even know about it, i leaked information from him to the internet, and you understood that you were setting up your professor, but i understood, well, i needed money, you can’t really live on medat’s salary, you promised to let me go, we’ll let you go, well so, there’s no way out of town at all, you understand, i’m not joking.

these journalists, they’ve gone completely crazy, you know, they’ve just started a hunt and are stalking pets after information about new murders appeared, and i’m just itching to shut down this denis, and arrange a demonstrative fight, maybe? yes, it’s pointless, he won’t contact him anymore, you know, well , i feel, you know, i have the feeling that the killer is always one step ahead of us. i’ll tell you, mash, excuse me, i understand that it’s either nothing or good about the dead, this serebryakov of yours, in his interview he set up such a setup for everyone, and first of all for himself, because according to my feelings, the maniac took it as personal insult, you know? listen, exactly. personal motive, oleg, out of four murders, three very personal, wife sergi, serebryakov himself, and his daughter, i have

a feeling that the murderer is everything. eliminates those who can return him to normal life, you know, forces him to start killing again, and you said about the article, i didn’t pay attention to it then, but i subscribe to this magazine, that day it had not yet arrived to me, it just got released, wait, i i can't be confused, what does that mean, it means the murder happened before the magazine went on sale, you know, the killer saw the article before the magazine came out. that's why he got you it's overwhelming all the time. is maniac connected with me? and who could it be? yes, anyone associated with the article, but theoretically the entire editorial staff. so we will check everyone before he goes rogue again. oleg, we need to catch him with live bait. that is, if my version is correct, then the killer is

a big fan. and he will do everything to please him, and at the same time eliminate everyone who interferes with him. if this is what i 'm thinking, i won't even know. my name is marya pavlovna germanova, as of yesterday, i am ivan verapova’s new psychotherapist. you we studied with professor serebryakov, didn’t we? so, he taught us a special course, recently the professor and i talked a lot about the circumstances, the affairs of our patient, he gave me all the materials, so i was completely brought up to date on this matter, and what can you say about the death of the professor who i watched you for many years, that i loved him as more than a father, and when i think that the person who does all this is copying me, i feel bad, i want to turn to this terrible person, become,

do you hear, you are doing terrible things, i have already atoned for my guilt enough, but how will you do this, and do you trust maria palovna? yes, she understands me, she sees my demons, and i ’m sure that she will help me not to move through the day again, whoever helps this scumbag, god will know him. thank you, i will disband your experimental department, to hell, do you even remember where you work, or else you yourself need to be sent to turk, and who is interested in coming up with this idiotic idea with an interview, alexander nikolaevich, maria pavlovna, shut up , please, i'm not finished yet, we have

journalists here. surrounded all around, the management is shaking, and if tomorrow, or tonight, he kills someone to prove something to you, have you survived, or what? alexander nikolaevich, can i still tell you my plan , take a risk, marya palovna, take a risk, i have drawn up a psychological portrait of this maniac to kill, i have a version that he really wants to please serga, and how he continues his business wants... with with this goal, he will now begin to mow down everyone who might interfere serge, go crazy again, i understand correctly, yes, i’m sure that after this interview he will try to kill me, if i correctly compiled his psychotype, then for him now this is a matter of principle, maria pavlovna, i congratulate you, you are the same crazy like

krylov. it wasn’t enough for me to have him alone, you’re right up to each other, what’s so funny, you’d better tell me what you’re going to do , what to do, catch with live bait, that means no amateur performances, and you don’t have to report to the preparations for the operation in person, well, you’re both sitting there , go, come on, otherwise you will soon drive me crazy, thank you, look carefully, you will recognize one of these people, take your time, carefully, look,

here he is. are you sure, yes absolutely, the best department of the investigative committee is working on this case, and i am sure that we will find the criminal very soon.

you’ll have some coffee, i just made it, which isn’t scary at all, at all, i’m sorry, but the masquerade was a success, if he’s watching the house, he definitely won’t recognize you. here he is, the photographer is working, we checked everyone, this one is working, look,

not afraid to come for the interview, and yet, you are sure that he will come, although for him it is essentially suicide, he will come, we are dealing with a person with a disturbed psyche, for him this whole game of earring is essentially the meaning of life, you understand moreover, he fell into the trap that all narcissists fall into. that is, he considers himself smarter than us, he considers himself special, he walks on the edge , that’s the only way he feels alive, he knows that we are waiting for him, that’s what turns him on, i don’t want to listen anymore, okay, guys, what do you have you, everything is clean, good, but i understand, you will, and if he still doesn’t come, then you will sleep on the sofa, the prospect is so-so, but better than nothing, repeat again, what should you do? so, i go to the store, calmly leave the house, buy everything i need,

wait around the corner until the checkpoint time, just in case, come back, let's go. hello, that's it, we're working, guys.

yes, everything is clear, uh-huh, yes, i understand, uh-huh, okay , that's it, it's all over, today, we're going home, everything is cancelled, why is it cancelled , we'll continue tomorrow, we're picking up the boss, no, i think that he can handle it himself, let's go, is your sofa comfortable? thank you, and you say good coffee, look, germanova, i’ll get hooked, i’ll come to you, you’re a terrible speculator, krylov, what can we do, we have to find different methods, well, what

are we going to do, do you have another tv? listen, i’ll go, i need to talk to the earring, okay, just let’s go according to plan, right, agreement? your new drawing , this is the sun, this is tamara, tell me what she was like, she was very good, kind, vanechka, i want you to know, i don’t love you i'll give it up, i'll guide you instead of professor serebryakov. what will happen when i am cured?

you can’t watch me forever, i need such a psycho, i’ll be there as long as it takes, but now, let’s start a new task, i want you to draw yourself in the present and on another sheet of paper how you see yourself in the future ?

quiet. calmly, child, calmly, the little villages turned around, that's it, that's it, grandfather, he's limping , well, bikasov, i think you understand that you have to fight back with... no, they took you in full view, so

to speak, in full uniform, keep quiet, ok, then i can tell for you, and your reaction will tell us whether what i ’m saying is correct or not, we will prove the connection with the previous murders, you can rest assured, this is a matter of technique. moreover, we sent the beard you kindly planted for dna testing. thank you, there are traces there. you were so carried away by your narcissism and considered yourself smarter than others that you still lost your vigilance. you did good for earring. surely you had an overbearing father, a weak-willed mother who could not protect you. take revenge on her, you

they expected that serga would start killing again, but he recovered, that’s bad luck, you wanted to provoke him again, you wanted to show him that his real purpose was to be a serial killer, and not an exemplary family man, and until he was released, you decided to take the matter into your own hands, but this is just the tip. iceberg, because in fact what you are doing is a feat of a herostratus, or a salier, if you want, you were jealous of him that he had such a unique method of killing with a whole masquerade, and you yourself were not capable of anything come up with, despite my psychopathic charisma, i admit, honestly, the lack of empathy in psychopaths always frightened me, you really didn’t feel sorry? neither these women, nor serebryakov, no one.
