It turned out that in the first month in an adult colony, almost immediately after quarantine, Nikita had already managed to call in a schizo: for three days he was given there because of the mistake made by him in the inventory of things. I forgot to enter something. To the question of the lawyer Vladimir Vasin (he also just met with the client in the colony), is it worth appealing, Nikita replied: “Why? I myself am to blame. "

Nikita has no complaints about people in uniform, nor sitting, everything, he says, is fine. Lives in a hut, where 80 people are in the room - 10-15. The throat hurts - apparently, heavy sore throat. There are other political prisoners in the colony - three people. There are no conversations on re -education, joint views of television programs. It happens, they show a movie. The last time the film was with Nagiyev-“The Best Day” (“Karaoke-comedy” by Zhora Kryzhovnikov 2015).
He has not yet begun to work, as he has not yet been employed. But “they attracted to work” - sweeping the territory, cleaned. Nikita did not develop a topic, he wants to work, but everyone who heard about the orders or familiar with them in this and neighboring colonies (there are three of them: another 17th, strict regime, and 27th, special regime), the meaning of this iconic action is understandable. This is a ritual, initiation. Many former prisoners of these colonies told about this "New". And this event always occurs under the shooting - to combat the “deny” (regime), with thieves' ideas and concepts. “Man”, based on them, can only remove behind himself and his own kind. If you were forced to perform Art. 106 PEC of the Russian Federation (households), you have seriously tarnished from the point of view of the Black, Criminal World. In different colonies, they “break” on the 106th with different perseverance, here it always happens on a reliable conveyor. And as Nikita Anna said, “thieves” are not here at all, everyone is working ...
But, probably, the main meaning is still not so much ideological as purely practical and material. In this conglomerate of colonies on Krazovskaya Street (in the sanitary protection zone of the world's largest Krasnoyarsk aluminum plant, Kraz) there is a grinding of rye and wheat, growing vegetables, firing lime, production of sausages, toilet paper, cabinets and coffins, fishing flies, hooks, mormysh, and nails, and nail coal, reinforcing mesh, toys, windows, paving stones, borders, “gut plate” and toilets, gratings and facade tiles. Breeding and sorting garbage. Finally, the colonies are supplied to Rabsil under contracts. Well, aluminum is also melted in the colonies. This is all - a business on a bonded and very, very unquenchable work.
Despite any dragon orders, it still happens here that prisoners do not want to hill for a penny, losing their health, or fundamentally refuse to work, deny the regime. And the economy of the camps suffers. Not only someone’s business is broken, but also responsible state tasks (prisoners are attracted to their execution). And h. 1 tbsp. 106 PEC of the Russian Federation is just about free work.
So they break immediately, in advance. They take revenge in the yard of carcinogenic dust flying from KrAZ, and removed in order to present it in case: the person signed up to work.
Perhaps, in the schizo, Nikita got more for prevention than in punishment. Everyone who is capable of disobedience in the potential demonstrates the capabilities of the system, regime. It is noteworthy that Nikita was not one in the insulator chamber - together.
Meanwhile, Nikita intends to work. And in the list of professions given to him in the Kansk educational colony, except for the specialty “cleaner” (there he was employed closer to the release - in the territory near the church he swept and plucked grass on the paving stones and around), there is also work on woodworking machines. And such a workshop in IK-31 works.

But so far they haven’t taken it there. There is also no opportunity to study yet, but Nikita wants to study. Probably enters the local technical school - at the zone. He will try, since with study at the International Eastern European University (this is Izhevsk, and the university, and college, where Nikita entered the graphic design last summer) does not work out anything: the whole learning process is online, you need a powerful computer with many specialized programs, constant access to the Internet, there is nothing of this. Nikita knows that the design book on design came to the zone, but so far it has not been issued.
Lawyer Vasin says that Nikita in the world continues to be interested, ask questions. Here are the answers to some.
"Do letters reach, including those sent from abroad?" -“I get it from abroad by electronics. In early February, he received an act of removal of a letter from a certain Mikhailova. The letter seized censorship, and it did not come to me. The seizure motive is indicated this: “News in support of Svo”.
"Who is inspiring?" - "Cool Letov!"
"With what hero of the cartoon or film does Nikita associate himself?" - “Chipollino” (smiles). Nikita had a new dream: "I would like to learn how to play the piano."
"Who did you dream of becoming in childhood?" - "Police." Anna retains Nikita’s works, including from primary schools, that he wants to help people and therefore become a police officer.
"What are you afraid of?" “I'm afraid for loved ones.”
"Favorite song or song with which is associated with some important event in life?" - “I did not have time to live to important events. Childhood and youth - in the zone ”(laughs).
The end of the Uvarov period is March 19, 2026.
