Rejtő Jenő - Csontbrigád

and#34;The camp priest recoiled when he saw the death row inmate a few minutes before the execution in one of the cells of the prison of the military prosecutor's office. The world has never seen anything like this! There sits the death row in tailcoats! He's also a little drunk, and he wears a white flower in his buttonhole and smokes a thick havana cigar while he whistles with googly eyes. This is a strange death row inmate! In the afternoon, for example, he walked out into town, went to a steam bath, where he bathed. Later, he had a snack in a good bourgeois cafe, then he read the papers, played rummy until nightfall, and because he still had a few hours before the execution, he went to the upscale club known as the Ambassadeur. Here, the death row inmate ate an eight-course dinner, and with it he chose a bottle of Iberia's blood-emerald, weighty wines, from the vintage corresponding to the historical past, which may have arrived in Africa with heretics escaping the Inquisition. to play rummy and to visit some reputable amusement, so I feel that the case calls for an explanation. The event can be traced back primarily to the superficiality of vicomte Hausier, who despite his young age was a lieutenant assigned to the Secret Service. On the day before the execution of Henry Fécamp, sentenced to death, Colonel Poncet asked the vicomte to see him: - You are assigned to make Fécamp escape, apparently as a member of a spy organization. Make him believe that you want to share the price of the hidden briefcase with him. Because this man hid very important documents.and#34;
