The carriage, emblazoned with the Holy Alliance emblem, sped down the road, while cavalry ahead drove the crowd to evade.
The black carriage carried a large black box, and before it came to a halt, one by one, the gendarmes and Cheka officers armed with spring guns and military sabres jumped out.
"Cheka operation, bystanders keep clear!"
A kick struck the oak door of the apartment, which burst open, revealing startled residents at the doorway.
A team of gendarmes disregarded the reactions of these residents and stamped up the stairs.
They split into three groups: two teams blocked the downstairs, while one team ascended for arrests.
However, unfortunately, when they arrived, only an empty room remained.
The window was wide open, and the curtains fluttered in the breeze.
Everything was orderly and clean, as if the owner had merely not yet returned home.
Except for one point.
