Like Stierlitz. A story for children about Seryozha.
Seryozha was walking down the street.
Suddenly a huge fat adult man approached him and grabbed him by the jacket, in the chest area:
- You deceived my son! When he found out what kind of postage stamp you slipped him, he cried all the day and all the night!
Seryozha could not utter a word from surprise, from confusion.
- Now you will get this from me! - The huge man clenched his fist.
- What are you doing!!!?
The guy stopped his fist in the raised position:
- Under (At) what price did you slip the stamp to my son?
Seryozha didn't know which boy and which postage stamp the huge evil man was talking about. In a critical situation, every second mattered. He answered at random:
- Fifty thousand rubles.
- Give me fifty thousand rubles and don't come near my son again! And with this money my son will buy a normal postage stamp.
Seryozha put his hand in his pocket. Ten thousand rubles were lying there. He looked around in confusion. Nearby was the entrance to a building with a sign in large letters: 'No Gambling Here.' Below was an inscription in smaller font: 'You are not welcome here! Do not come in!'
- I have ten thousand rubles with me. Take this money, now!
The huge man's face distorted, his rage intensified, his fist began to rise above Seryozha's head:
-Are you going to fool me now? I won't cry! I'm going to beat you now!
- Wait a minute. I will bet money in the game, and after winning I will give you fifty thousand.
The man's face, overcome with rage, was distorted with anger. But he, still, said:
- Come on, try it! I don't care where you get the money.
Seryozha and the evil man entered the building with mysterious inscriptions.
There were some people sitting in a spacious hall behind the terminals.
Seryozha took an empty seat at (in front of) one of the terminals. He had no desire to play. And it was a pity to lose money. To play means to lose money. Not to play - to get a hit on the head. But a huge man loomed over Seryozha.
Seryozha took out the money and began to figure out what to do next.
At this time, a siren wailed and employees began running around the room, shouting: 'Evacuation training! Evacuation Drill! Please leave the premises immediately!'
One of the employees turned to the huge man: 'Evacuation training! Evacuation Drill! Air raid alert! Please leave the premises immediately!'
Seryozha jumped off to the side in a split second. The visitors, including a huge man, crowded towards the exit.
Seryozha saw the door behind the curtain. There was a sign on the door: 'Office premise. No entry!' There was a key in the lock.
Seryozha remembered the film 'Seventeen Moments of Spring'. He, like Stierlitz, entered the door with the key sticking out in the lock.
Seryozha carefully closed the door behind himself and exhaled.
The words from the film came to mind. Seryozha began to hum, barely audibly: '... The time will come, you yourself will understand, probably...'.
It seems that the critical situation has passed...
