Allow to be presented, - the American has told. - Norton, the chief of Hiroshima branch AVSS.
Doctor Mitoja has bowed politely and has pressed a hand. To the left side.
I already had pleasure to meet you, Mr. Norton, - has told it. - It seems, it was two years ago. We saw at our Minister of
Health of mister Hasimoto. Sit down, please.
The director of hospital perfectly spoke English, and only sometimes soft "r", sliping instead of unusual "l" for the Japanese,
gave out that this language is not its native.
Norton has plunged into an armchair opposite to Mitoja and has extended feet. Mitoja has fallen on a chair, has moved
through a table to the visitor a siphon and small varnished ящик:Содовая, cigarettes, I will forgive you.
With pleasure. And, "Varnishes the Strike"! Just as in States, during kind student's times, isn't that so? I thank you.
The American has lighted.
You are, of course, not so surprised by my visiting; Mr. Mitoja, isn't that so? Anyway, it delivers me a great honour and a great
pleasure, - that has mechanically responded.
After busy office day? - The American has burst out laughing. - we will not spend precious time for compliments. With your
permission, I will pass directly to business.
I ask you, Mr. Norton.
Norton suddenly was restive. It the greenish twilight over a paper lamp shade of a desk lamp for some reason confused,
naked walls, impenetrable, as a mask, the dark person of the owner sitting very directly on that party of a table. "The
scientist with such name and the director of such hospital could have more suitable kabi-is not present", - Norton has for a
moment thought and has there and then become angry about itself.
In sum, - Norton has a little sharply said, - me two patients who have arrived to you fifteenth interest.
"So it also is, - Mitoja has thought. - Now they will not give us rest".
But its person still remains tired and indifferent.
Whether it will be allowed to me to learn, Mr. Norton, from what point of view they you interest? And what exactly you wish to
know about them? Norton's person has represented the deepest amazement.
Unless to you did not call from the Ministry for Foreign Affairs? - He has asked perplexed.
Doctor Mitoja has shaken головой:Не I understand, what relation can have the Ministry for Foreign Affairs to affairs of my
hospital.
Means, your officials again have mixed all! - it is angry Norton has told. He has thought suddenly and has slightly reddened. -
forgive, please. The matter is that I have been compelled to take off here from... e-e... From Hiroshima on a desperate
request of our diplomats. To me have told that here there are two patients, which... m-m... Which can represent for us a great
interest. And have added, what the personnel of your hospital not in a condition not only to treat them, but even to diagnose,
and what you, you personally - understand? - Demanded arrival of the American doctors.
