Sasha. Have you?
Ast. Some other man was murdered twenty years ago. The murderer said that it was you.
Sasha. Ah, he said that it was me, did he?
Ast. Why did Adámek say that it was you?
Sasha. Can you not guess? Adámek murdered no one.
Ast. He murdered no one? But he was condemned.
Sasha. He was never condemned.
Ast. Never condemned? Then what became of him?
Sasha. He died.... Do you not understand? It was I who killed Adámek.
Ast. You!
