After the Chief Gold Prospector Resigned, the Fake Clairvoyant Went Into Panic
The new intern claimed she had clairvoyant sight. With just one look, she could tell exactly where the underground gold deposits were.
As the institute’s chief gold prospector, I was deeply embarrassed.
Every time I went through hell to locate a vein, she somehow managed to report it to the institute before I could.
Even the engineering crew working under me was full of complaints.
“What kind of chief prospector is she? Following her means panning in the river one day and digging holes in the mountains the next. We work ourselves half to death and get nothing to show for it!”
“Exactly. Look at Jane. She just joined the institute and has already found two major gold mines. The crews working with her have already earned first-class commendations.”
While the crew complained about me, I began to suspect that someone among them was leaking information.
So the next time I went out to search for gold, I worked alone and finally found a major deposit.
But just as I was about to report it to the institute, I discovered that Jane had beaten me to it again.
That time, I couldn’t hold back anymore. I openly questioned her and accused her of stealing my work.
She fired back, claiming her clairvoyant sight had shown her that I had been secretly pocketing gold from the mine.
Even my fiancé stepped forward and testified against me.
In the end, I was sent to prison on false charges and died there, never able to clear my name.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day my fiancé’s junior apprentice first claimed she had clairvoyant sight.
