Irene met Herbert there. There were an unrest/riot in a center of city.440Please respect copyright.PENANAd9MBnirQlK
From the airport they drove by car to the city, Irene was driving.440Please respect copyright.PENANAdGcJPDddKC

"Can I have some accommodation?" Herbert asked.440Please respect copyright.PENANAQeO3fK2Kbe
"Don't worry, Maria-Cecilia runs a small hotel, not far from the center. There we can discuss our affairs," Irene answered.440Please respect copyright.PENANA9q1Y8aGOnT

They rode on in silence, Herbert stealing a glance at her profile. Then he looked at her hand on the gear stick.440Please respect copyright.PENANACfaX7UyHCh
The rest of the way he looked at the city, the city lived an ordinary life, and you can't say that there are riots in the city center.440Please respect copyright.PENANAg0fZuM4aVq

Irene turned into a narrow street, and they arrived at a two-story hotel. There was nowhere to see the entrance to the parking, but Irena drove into the arch and after several masterful turns drove onto the iron platform and the platform lowered the car into a small underground parking.440Please respect copyright.PENANA8oCPiiMuWS

They climbed up the narrow stairs directly to the reception hall. There was no one at the reception. But when Irene and Herbert approached the counter, a woman of 35-37 years old came out to them.
"Hello MC, the presidential suite, please," Irene said with a smile, nodding at Herbert.440Please respect copyright.PENANAVN8yidjswu
MC handed Herbert the keys without looking at his ID, which he tried to show her.440Please respect copyright.PENANAttwS3OEs9j
"So young, but already with ID," she grinned friendly.
Irene escorted Herbert to a room on the second floor.440Please respect copyright.PENANAgoMUtmmudR
"Get some rest, go downstairs to the cafe in the evening, Maria-Cecilia and I will be there," she told to him.

Herbert took a shower and lay down to rest. TV sparingly covered the events. Rioting townspeople burned bonfires in the square. The President of the Republic offered the heads of the rebels some unimportant positions in the government. It was visible insincerity. For the rebel leaders that proposals were frankly off topic. The meeting was clearly held for show that the parties are striving for peace. Everyone spokes inarticulate and sadly. Herbert fell asleep to the murmur of the TV.440Please respect copyright.PENANACiuGIvcWxh

In the evening Herbert went down to the cafe. Maria-Cecilia was serving a hotel guest.440Please respect copyright.PENANAsWNnS0U5GO
"And where is Irene?" Herbert asked her.440Please respect copyright.PENANAKuZ864ywV0
"Oh, she's already gone home," Maria-Cecilia replied and set the supper in front of him.440Please respect copyright.PENANAvTMJST9t26
"I see city dwellers are very angry, are they going to burn witches?"440Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2TOfoDpy8
"We'll see, but this won't end well."
