Varaksin receives a telegram from Arkhipovsk - Sokolov disappeared without a trace. Arriving and examined the place of Sokolov's disappearance, Varaksin realizes that it was staged. And, therefore, Sokolov may still be alive and is being held hostage by Sazon. Varaksin sets a trap for the bandits and together with the militiamen finds the lair of the Sazonites. But neither the leader nor Sokolov is there. Suddenly, all the pieces of the puzzle come together in Varaksin's head.
