Chapter 1
September 16 was a normal working day for a teacher of English Elena Dmitrievna. The time on the mobile phone showed 14:45. Just finished the first lesson of the second shift. The class stood in a wild roar.
– Guys, let’s keep it down! – tried to shout down the class of Elena Dmitrievna.
Realizing that it’s useless, Yelena, took the wallet and mobile phone and went to high school cafeteria. She walked down a school hallway, when suddenly I got a call from her cell phone:
Yeah, I’m listening!
The connection came an excited female voice:
– Elena Dmitrievna, Hello! This mom Nadya Timofeeva. Tell me, is long over, the lessons from the first shift? Nadia is still not home and her phone is not responding!
– The first shift I was released two hours ago, maybe Nadia with her friend? Seems she’s friends with Diana Zelenina. I now find her phone and call you back.
E Lena D. was the class teacher 5"B”, in which he studied Nadia Timofeeva. With 5"B” she knew for only two weeks, as after the fourth grade of elementary school ends, and all the disciples to distribute it on new classes -starts secondary school. At school Elena Dmitrievna worked for over 30 years. She was a typical Russian teacher working in a typical high school of a small provincial town like any other in the territory of our country: of medium height, stout, with short hair, wearing glasses. Dressed usually in a simple skirt and blouse, and shoes with low heels.
For two weeks it is impossible to know their students, but Nadia Timofeeva she remembered. First of all she was a good student and was valedictorian, and he often raised his hand in class to answer. She sat at the same Desk with Diana Zelenina – they were friends. Besides, today was a great hour on which the class was shown a documentary film about the war. Nadia burst into tears. Yelena thought that the girl was very sensitive and kind.
Searching and finding the phone Diana Zelenina, Elena Dmitrievna again dialed the number :
– Write down the phone number and address of Diana, if that call me, we will continue to look.
Thank you!

– Calm down, please. Let me call up all the classmates Nadi, suddenly she went to someone to visit. That may be, children are children, overworked and forgot to call.
Elena Dmitrievna began to call all the students of 5"B” class one by one, but Nadia was not there.

Chapter 4
The search did not stop for one day. Nadia was looking for and in weekends and on weekdays, who had such an opportunity.
– You heard that in our town the girl went missing 11 years, Nadia Timofeeva? asked her husband, pouring the boiling water into a Cup of coffee. – Left school and home not reached. It’s been a few days looking for.
Ksenia slowly moved around the kitchen in a short robe and sandals home. Thick, wavy red hair was carelessly gathered the top and pinned barrette. Xenia have not had time in the morning to apply makeup, and because all her red freckles were now visible on a white face and large blue eyes framed with fluffy eyelashes light. She sat down at the table across from her husband and put the drink next to him. Alex extinguished the cigarette and put the butt in a glass ashtray.
– Yes, I heard at work was talking about it. By the way, our guys are going on a quest today. Dima is a dog, he wants her to take. I don’t know, will anything come of it, I need some specially trained search dogs. But, in any case, it’s better than nothing. Suddenly something smells.
– Maybe we go with them? ‘asked Ksenia.
– Do you want? I think in your situation it’s better not to participate in such events.
You know, I even dreamt of today. It has never happened. I want to go! – persistently said Ksenia.
– What did you dream? – asked the husband with interest and even a sort of surprise.
– She asked that she was found…
– She was alive in a dream?
– Yes, alive. At least I thought so…
Ksenia and Alex as we both fell silent and for a while sat silent in thought, each thinking of his.
– I think you’re just too close took this story due to the fact that she is now expecting a baby, think a lot about children, that’s all! – husband with a smile looked at Her and stroked her ginger hair, gleaming red gold in the morning sun.
– Maybe… where do you think its worth a look, if she’s alive?
Alex for some time, thought, said:
– If she’s alive – she’s probably being held somewhere in the garage or in abandoned dachas, or anybody else in the cellar. Well, something like that. It could be kidnap to demand a ransom. Although, no one has yet presented no demands. And, in General, such a public outcry this case has produced, it seems to me that criminals are now afraid. I’m afraid that they can now get rid of it. Well, of course, if abducted for ransom. There may be other reasons…
– How many cases, when a maniac was holding his victims for years in basements and cellars, dug specially for this purpose! Remember, I wrote about Natasha kampusch from America? Her man was kidnapped and held in a specially dug pit in his garage. Eight years she spent there, and then when he began to trust her to clean up my garage, ran away from him. She even wrote a book about it and sued the estate of a maniac. And he, as I recall, committed suicide… Yes, though we do not remember in what city, man lived with his mother, was not married. Dug at home an entire room and lured two young girls. He lived four years. One even several children gave birth to him, and then they managed to pass a note to another girl quietly when he wanted her to lure. She went with this note to the police. And then only found them and freed… at all. scary even to think…
– I can call Dima and find out where they are going. Go with them, and you still will not calm down! laughing said Alex.
– Of course, I will not rest…
About an hour later Xenia’s husband arrived at the house of Dmitry Ustyuzhanina in their dark-blue “Crown”. Dmitry lived in a two-story brick house, which he built himself, along with his older brother Sergei and his father. A year ago, Dima is married and has got two daughters – twins Alina and angelina. Dmitri was the same age as Alex. Tall with dark short-cropped hair, brown eyes, and a figure of Apollo. They met a few years ago, when Dmitry with his father and brother Sergey decided to organize his company for the repair and decoration of apartments and houses. They were looking for a good paver tile, and Alex was looking for work. Since then they have worked together.
Good morning! – climbs out of the car said Alex.
Hey! And you do not get ill! Well, thinking with us?! with unconcealed joy said Dima over the fence.
– Yes, my wife insisted, – Alexey lovingly pulled her to him Xenia. How many people going on a quest?
– I, Sergei and his wife Olga, the two of you, Yuri with her son. It turns out seven people.
– Yuri – who?
– This is my neighbor, right across the street there, Dima waved his hand in a house of white brick with semi-circular plastic Windows and blue tiles on the roof, surrounded by a wrought-iron fence. The top and bottom of the walls was lined with a pattern of red brick.
