The Inspector General by Nikolai Gogol6/21/2023 ![]() ![]() They have just received fresh salmon, so we'll have a lunch." But no sooner had we entered the inn, than a young man-yes, yes, of good appearance-in citizen's clothes-he was walking up and down the room and with such a look of deliberation on his face-physiognomy-manner-and here, very, very, very thoughtful. We went to Puchechuev, and on the way Petr Ivanovich said to me, "Let us to," said he, "to the inn. Now, Petr Ivanovich, do not interrupt me!. And so Petr Ivanovich and myself went to Puchechuev. Yes! Having met Petr Ivanovich I asked him, "Have you heard the news Antonovich has received through a trustworthy letter?" But Petr Ivanovich had already heard it from your housekeeper, Avdotya, who had been sent to Filip Antonovich Puchechuev after something. So I, as you will please see, ran to Korobkin, but not finding him at home I turned to Rastakabski, and not finding him at home, I went to Ivan Kuzmich to inform him of the news you had received, and as I was coming from there I met Petr Ivanovich-by the tartlet stand. ![]() As soon as I had the pleasure of leaving you, right after you had permitted yourselves to be disturbed by the letter you had received, I ran at once-please don't stop me, Petr Ivanovich-I know what you would say. Please, gentlemen, don't let Petr Ivanovich stop me. BOBCHINSKI: No, no, let me-you won't get it straight. ![]()
