The call came at ten in the morning. Maria Ivanovna put off the clothing of wool socks and removed the tube.
“Your grandson has just committed a serious accident,” the unknown man explained in a hurry. - A dear foreign mark is broken, there are victims, and this is from three to five years in prison... To help the grandson to avoid criminal responsibility, money is needed!
How much?
Two hundred thousand! An unknown voice said. Get the money – our man will come to you! And about this call to no one, or granddaughter will definitely warm up by stage!
“But I don’t have such money at home,” Maria Ivanovna whispered. You need to go to the bank, which is at the other end of the city.
- Go out on the street - the silver "giggles" will come to the house and take you where you need to. And remember: let no one say a word! In the interest of my grandson.

After driving half a city and stopping near the bank, the driver pressed his finger to his lips.
Maria Ivanovna answered the same. Back in half an hour:
“I forgot the plastic card’s PIN code,” she breathed hard. - I need to go to the house - it is there with me, it is recorded in the notebook...
Maria Ivanovna left the village, which was thirty kilometers from the city, with two bags of potatoes and a net of onions.
Put it in the luggage and go! She said she was bored.
In the bank? He asked him.
“Go home,” left Maria Ivanovna. Do you go to the bank with potatoes? And on the road near the supermarket brakes, you have to buy bread and milk.

The driver stumbled but remained silent. It is dark. The guy was nervous, and Maria Ivanovna was calm as an elephant.
“How to sit without a job would help my grandmother,” she noticed as she got out of the car. The fraudster followed her to the fifth floor. They were waiting for him in police uniform.
What about the grandson? The detainee was confused.
“I don’t have any grandchildren,” the fraud victim calmly replied. - As, of course, the road accident with human victims... I immediately bit you!
Why did you go to the bank?
To pay for the apartment and the phone.
What about Dacia?
“To bring potatoes and onions home,” explained Maria Ivanovna. Go go go go! I am not your grandmother with a cat, but a retired police major!
