It also exposes and criticizes the Russian upper-level bureaucrats and aristocratic bourgeoisie. Pyotr Stepanovich, based on Nechaev, is a shameless and conscientious conspirator, a political liar who "made his fortune through the revolution". He controls the secret organization "Group of Five" and instructs its members to cause trouble in fund-raising activities organized by the governor's wife. , Also used the excuse that Shatov, a college student, was suspected of being a whistleblower, and used malicious incitement, deception, and intimidation to force members of the team to assassinate Shatov. Afterwards, he induced the atheist Kirov to admit everything, write a suicide note, and shoot himself. However, he himself escaped. In addition, the author also describes another "ghost" Nicholas Tavrogin, a playboy who has no moral code, is shameless, and specializes in playing with women's emotions, as well as the father and nurturer of these two "ghosts" - a vilified representative of liberal Western Europeans.
