Prapor — briefing
How's it going, warrior? I have an errand for you. My comrade Arseny worked at the factory as a tanker driver. His family left during the evacuation while he stayed behind to make some extra money, and perished here. He lived in a three-story dormitory near Polikhim, I don't remember the room. Anyway, he had a chain watch, a family heirloom. Bragged about it to everyone. Find that watch and bring it to me, I want to send it to his kid. I want the kid to have something to remember his old man by. The watch must be either in his room or in the tanker truck somewhere at the construction site. Arseny always kept the keys in his jacket. Anyway, do the job. So long!
