Evan: Again..how about this…Victor
Alex: They tell me it's a spark... that could set all of our countries on fire
Evan: That's dangerous..I don't think so
Alex: I will tell you after the professors at the university make an analysis of it...and it is quality, fundamentally dangerous for our country
Evan: Well, he is a teacher in the political science department..is there no director for him?...and the president of a university..let them expel him as long as he is dangerous..that much
Alex: I don't know..they might be like him…I would like to kill him..so that he could be an example.
Evan: No… I am not satisfied to make a solution.. in this way
Alex looked at Evan like a fox on the sly.. Alex was hurt Disappointment..but he smiled..and courted, "Ivan, don't be afraid..we will see this, Victor…And you will judge who he is."
Evan: The one who decides is the police
Alex: Yes..but it may be that his colleagues and the university president do not want to hand him over. We are here to stop them and thwart their plans
Evan: Look over there…Alex..grocery store with the flag of Switzerland
Alex: He probably sells some Swiss products
Evan: No… I think they are from Switzerland
Alex: Well..let's get it in. That's amazing

Evan: Really... I didn't even feel it... That means it's been 3 hours, and we get to the big lake
Alex: Two and a half hours...I'll pick it up
Evan: Let's listen to the music on the radio
Alex: This Swiss is an excellent example of friendship between peoples
He has become Russian
Evan: Was he a fugitive...or a criminal?
Alex: The criminal is not received... His records must be free of crimes, In order to obtain Russian citizenship
Evan: I liked the laws of the European Union that every citizen has the right to movement
Between hers and can work...when Alex will join her
Alex looked at Evan in astonishment, "Not possible now..because we are in a state of contradiction."
Evan: If we had peace... wouldn't it have been dark... the citizens would go to work there
Alex: Yes...but we have missile threats boom boom
Evan: Well.. well we will wait until we have peace
Two hours passed... Alex was smiling... "Soon... soon we'll be at Lake Ilmen"
Evan: And what are we going to have for the lunch?
Alex: Never mind we're going to grill...let's see what we're going to grill
Minutes passed..."Look Alex... a meat shop"
Alex laughed, "I know, I've seen it before on the map...
They entered the meat store, it was a slaughterhouse for the meat of animals and birds
Inside the shop, there was a big boar hanging, and behind it was the trunk of a large tree with an ax on it. Some travelers inside the store were buying items... Alex Ray looked
Duck, turkey, and types of meat, cow, and sheep.
Alex: I like the hanging pig...it's big and fat
Evan: Well if we only buy one meal... it might spoil if I buy a lot
Alex went to the seller.. "Give me 5 kilos of shredded pork... I want it for grilling."
The salesman smiled and welcomed him..."Yes..do you want to cut from different parts?"
Evan: Yes, please
Alex: We will be at the lake for two days... What about tomorrow shall we come again?
Evan: I think if they have a live bird, like a chicken or a duck
Alex: Do you have a live turkey?
Salesman: Yes...how many turkeys do you want?
Evan: One big turkey
The seller spoke to a colleague...so he immediately went out...and started cutting the pork...in a quick and ingenious way..the shop's customers were waiting..." The salesman
I want beef." A fat woman approached him, "Gave me 5 chickens."
The seller had finished cutting..."Well, a moment, please, and everything
will be ready." He heard knocks on the window and saw a colleague holding Turkey
Mr… "You can pick up the turkey outside."
Evan: Go get him the turkey, and I'll pay the bill
Alex came out of the butcher's shop..." Uh...she's big"...and walked over to the worker
"It's big and not too old... rest assured that its meat is tender."
Alex opened the trunk of his car from behind, "Can you put it here...please?"
Evan came out of the butcher shop..."Alex...let's go...let's go to the lake"
Alex was driving..."I wonder what's up with the turkey in the trunk"
Evan: Don't worry...you won't choke
There were many passing cars...Suddenly…Evan felt something..." Look Alex...
The car is parked on my side.
Alex: Maybe the tire...flat...the road is flat
Alex turned the steering wheel right..."Let's go downstairs and see"...Evan got off..."Yeah
The tire dropped...let me replace it...open the trunk"
Alex got out of the car..."I'll get you the spare tire"... He opened
The back box and all of a sudden the turkey jumped up...and it was running
..." Evan...I'll catch up with her...she ran away" Alex ran after her and he got off the sidewalk, chasing her through the grass and between the trees... Evan was laughing...as he changed the wheel of the car...he heard Alex call out, "I caught her."
He saw Alex climb onto the sidewalk with the turkey in his hand
Evan: Now...I'll fix the wheel...
Alex approached the car, panting..."I don't have a rope...I'll put it in the trunk."
Evan: All the time, no... when we get there... put her in the back seat
Alex put her in the box..and locked her door. "What was the reason
...Evan...did you know" Evan was holding the wheel and looking at it. "Yeah, a nail."
Alex: I knew where from when we were at the shop there was a pile of building lumber
Ivan was happily watching the Novgorod region
Alex: Evan...we're getting close to the...big lake...
Bluewater reflected the sun's rays.. like the sea... Evan rejoiced
..."Uh... haha... the lake"
There were cars and a lot of people on the lake... people were swimming
...and inflatable boats in which children and youth had fun... Alex was driving and would like to stand, In a place where people don't gather..."Would you like to swim...Ivan"
Evan: Yes, of course... Now I'm going to go down and jump in it
Alex laughed... he parked his car near the lake edge... and they got out and took off their clothes, and they ran... and jumped into the lake with eagerness, eagerness, and happiness... "Ah... the weather is a little cold."
Alex: It's okay... Evan, it'll be fine... Alex dives in ...he saw small stones and green grass below...and small fish.
He suddenly came out and was breathing… "Oh...it's amazing"... Evan was paddling with his hand..swimming to inside the lake... Alex called out, "Evan, be careful... don't swim too far... it might be deep."
Evan shook him...after he got further away...and approached Alex while hitting the water with his hand...like a swimmer in the competition "Come on..Mr. Alex...let's go out...and pitch the tent".
Alex: Let's go for a bit...in this refreshing water...we've been many hours traveling
In the car... Evan Alex winked, "Look around you, pretty girls in swimsuits."
Alex cheered: yeah...it's fun and exciting here
Evan: I'm thinking of coming with my wife one day...to this lake to have a rest
Evan came out of the lake..."Alex...I'll pitch the tent...and set up the barbecue
Some of the men swimming called out to Alex, "Hi..man..what area are you from?"
"Hello...I'm from Moscow...on vacation...you're from Novgorod"
" you are right...yes...we are retired...and we go on some vacations to relax
in this big lake".
Alex: There are 52 rivers pouring into this lake
One of the men: "There is a bigger lake." Pointing his finger to the north, "Lake Ladoga."
Alex laughed..."Lake...and then there's the Baltic Sea"
One of the men: You stay with us for lunch... They look tired
Alex: Thank you...my friend will make lunch...we will stay till tomorrow
"Ah..we are leaving...today".
Alex came out of the water... Evan had prepared the tent..." Evan... my friend... let's cook
Evan: We have to wait... I'm going to marinate the meat in spices, lemon, and vinegar for an hour...this is to be meat
Alex: I know...well...we're missing a radio
Evan: We'll buy one...when we get to town...there's a way back
Alex: Sure...way back...but after the job is done
Alex's face turned red with anger... "after serf Victor taught a lesson"
