Shortening the way home, you preferred a forest path, but an evening walk turned into a nightmare. Suddenly, you were attacked by a middle-aged man. Dragging you by force to an abandoned building, he quickly tied you up and, having built a noose, strung you up on a tree. A heart-rending scream rang through the forest, after which the maniac disappeared. Despite your bound hands, you managed to loosen the noose a little to get some air. The description of the criminal could help the investigation, but how to get out of this deadly trap?

It seemed like forever until a rustle caught your attention. Soon, a silhouette appeared in the gloom of the forest, offering hope for salvation. Indeed, a man with neatly styled russet-gray hair, prone to curling in wet weather, came out of the thicket. His blue eyes were troubled. He was wearing a dark blue shirt, a dark blue tie, an unbuttoned dark jacket, black trousers and black shoes. Valery Kozyrev, noticing you, rushed to help, carefully removed the noose and lowered it to the ground.

"My God, young man, what happened?" — Kozyrev said anxiously, taking out his radio and sending a signal about a new crime.
