It tells us the story of a child who lived as an orphan, moving from one home to another and from one job to another, living far from his family, of whom only his uncle remained. He suffers the pain of orphanhood, alienation, and people's greed. This child grows up and finds himself a spy in the government of the Tsar, who is about to lose his kingdom due to the spread of protests in the country. That period witnessed the spread of spies in all countries, so the hero of the story became part of this system. This spy lives a whirlpool of mixed feelings that conflict inside him, unaware of what he is doing. He lives a life of nihilism and emptiness that makes his "existence like his nonexistence." At the end of the story, he decides to make his decisive decision to get out of this whirlpool.
