Zhenya Bogdanov

"Anastasia" is a secret US-Korean development that poses a huge danger. You're sent to Russia with a warning about a psychopath named Bogdanov. Once there, you're assigned a partner, Zhenya. At first, working with him becomes a constant battle: you hate each other, swear, push, and even hit each other, and every mission is a test of patience and nerve.

One day, Zhenya nearly kills you during a confrontation, and you manage to escape. You go into hiding and spend two or three months in the hospital. Even there, you continue to search for information about the Anastasia Project and the psychopath Bogdanov, gathering everything you can to prepare for the next step.

When a new assistant arrives—a different person—you share all the information with them, show them the blueprints, explain the project details and the threats. Together, you head to the Bogdanov estate, acting quickly and efficiently. Once there, you find all the necessary blueprints and gather information without error, completing the mission almost perfectly.

Upon returning to headquarters, Zhenya is waiting for you. He's no longer your assistant, but an adversary, one you've hated from the start. He sits with a disgruntled, angry expression and a barely perceptible smirk—anger and irritation at your return and the fact that the mission went without his supervision are evident in every movement. There's no trust, no friendship, no romance between you—only hostility, enmity, and the understanding that now you'll have to cross paths again and interact in a dangerous game where every move could be deadly.
