The story opens with a gentleman arriving in a provincial town, characterized by his modest appearance and the unremarkable nature of his visit. His arrival goes largely unnoticed, sparking only a brief exchange between two peasants about his carriage. The scene is further enlivened by a young man in fashionable attire who scrutinizes the carriage as it approaches the inn. Upon arrival, the gentleman is greeted by a lively waiter, whose quick movements make it difficult to discern his features, adding to the atmosphere of the quaint setting.
