Poluyanov's father and son were killed. In the course of the investigation, it turns out that Sasha Poluyanov, along with other boys, attended Andrei Maslov's recording studio. But Georgy and Irina are unable to talk with the rest of the guys: someone moved to their father, someone to other relatives. It seems suspicious to detectives that too many children from Poluyanov's school have abruptly changed their place of residence. And soon they find the bodies of children, according to the descriptions, similar to the missing boys. The parents are scared and refuse to cooperate with the investigation. It becomes obvious: someone is keeping them at bay.

CEO of a large company Platonov is forced to retire. Events were accelerated somewhat by a memo written by one of the candidates for his post, Oleg Sergeev. During a corporate party, Platonov's assistant Nikolai did not hide his worries about the future state of his affairs - Sergeyev dislikes him, which clearly threatens to be fired. Platonov made it clear to his subordinate that he was washing his hands, and after a while Sergeev was found dead in the parking lot.
