I have stationed myself in front of a Vyborg shop just like any other guy. Trading is quite as vivid outside as it is inside. People are selling all sorts of things. I am one of the idle loafers who are so numerous that my presence does not attract any attention whatsoever. That's good. Maxim Gorky had told Axel Gallén to be on his guard with the Russians! Today he is your friend, tomorrow he will kill you, and the day after he will announce that you are a saint.
