Investigative Committee investigator Gleb Tochilin and Yulia Demina, of the Institute of the Brain, have to untangle a strange case: a body has vanished from the morgue. The difference in their ages makes it hard for them to find a common language. That friction falls away when a new riddle reaches them.
