The genius of mathematics Mikhail Nefedov teaches probability theory and mathematical statistics at the university. He remembers everything he has ever heard, seen or read.

He couldn't have made a mistake, which means there is an unaccounted variable in the equation.

Mikhail calculates the organizers of the shadow business and demands his winnings from them. This is how the university teacher's war with the betting mafia begins.
