The KGB director has not yet revealed himself, but after Plevenov returned, he did something astonishing—he submitted a written request to Nikolai, the outgoing but not yet officially retired director, proposing to transfer Alexander to the Security Bureau as the deputy director.
Nikolai could approve it or reject it, but Plevenov's move left him momentarily puzzled.
Then, Ludelins suddenly launched an attack, accusing Alexander from his hospital bed of potentially being involved in the corruption scandal surrounding Deputy Director Yelinsay.
