Irene met Herbert there. There were an unrest/riot in a center of city.230Please respect copyright.PENANAdIhXJbvRhe
From the airport they drove by car to the city, Irene was driving.230Please respect copyright.PENANAAYnNbberyc

"Can I have some accommodation?" Herbert asked.230Please respect copyright.PENANAVGMVVn7tLN
"Don't worry, Maria-Cecilia runs a small hotel, not far from the center. There we can discuss our affairs," Irene answered.230Please respect copyright.PENANAuVcursUOrW

They rode on in silence, Herbert stealing a glance at her profile. Then he looked at her hand on the gear stick.230Please respect copyright.PENANASth94Bvkyz
The rest of the way he looked at the city, the city lived an ordinary life, and you can't say that there are riots in the city center.230Please respect copyright.PENANAE9BOdq5vuL

Irene turned into a narrow street, and they arrived at a two-story hotel. There was nowhere to see the entrance to the parking, but Irena drove into the arch and after several masterful turns drove onto the iron platform and the platform lowered the car into a small underground parking.230Please respect copyright.PENANAgNiLbzLKVv

They climbed up the narrow stairs directly to the reception hall. There was no one at the reception. But when Irene and Herbert approached the counter, a woman of 35-37 years old came out to them.
"Hello MC, the presidential suite, please," Irene said with a smile, nodding at Herbert.230Please respect copyright.PENANAEcnBsfsLQU
MC handed Herbert the keys without looking at his ID, which he tried to show her.230Please respect copyright.PENANAPSDHGzSiuA
"So young, but already with ID," she grinned friendly.
Irene escorted Herbert to a room on the second floor.230Please respect copyright.PENANA7yWxdNLaK8
"Get some rest, go downstairs to the cafe in the evening, Maria-Cecilia and I will be there," she told to him.

Herbert took a shower and lay down to rest. TV sparingly covered the events. Rioting townspeople burned bonfires in the square. The President of the Republic offered the heads of the rebels some unimportant positions in the government. It was visible insincerity. For the rebel leaders that proposals were frankly off topic. The meeting was clearly held for show that the parties are striving for peace. Everyone spokes inarticulate and sadly. Herbert fell asleep to the murmur of the TV.230Please respect copyright.PENANAuPO0ZimJ8s

In the evening Herbert went down to the cafe. Maria-Cecilia was serving a hotel guest.230Please respect copyright.PENANAJdG2xVI5vd
"And where is Irene?" Herbert asked her.230Please respect copyright.PENANAJJBuvPWB0Q
"Oh, she's already gone home," Maria-Cecilia replied and set the supper in front of him.230Please respect copyright.PENANAUIKdt2piT8
"I see city dwellers are very angry, are they going to burn witches?"230Please respect copyright.PENANA1ACQ7hvTUI
"We'll see, but this won't end well."
