Chapter 419

"Why don't you read your own fortune? Will you be able to get this money?" Larry didn't bother to hide the hostile look in his gaze. The fortune teller was utterly horrified at this point he could no longer conceal his true colors as a scammer. Linda, who was sitting by the side, couldn't help but laugh to herself. Is he trying to fake his role as a fortune teller when he can barely contain his own emotions? Hah! What a joke.

"I... I..." The fortune teller couldn't say anything at all-he stuttered for a century before scrunching his face and turning to Hanson. Finally, he had to force himself to speak in the face of Hanson's stern glare." was a part of the backstage crew in Master Gordon's troupe 20 years ago. There was this one time when I overheard Master Gordon saying that The Great Chemist went into the mountains for his practice. When I noticed how all the rich people tended to come over in search of The Great Chemist, I came up with this scheme of pretending to be a fortune teller."

Vania was still mildly surprised after hearing the man's explanation. While they were on the way to the fortune teller's place, the two assistants had already researched the fortune teller's background, and they knew that he was a scammer. However, she hadn't expected him to be able to lie and survive for so many years as a fortune teller just after overhearing a single rumor. Vania couldn't believe that all of his past visitors had just blindly trusted him.

"So, did The Great Chemist really go into the mountains?" Larry felt the need to clarify things with the fortune teller since he was a scammer. The scammer nodded hastily. "I heard Master Gordon say this-I'm not making it up."

"Well, at least you're being honest for once." Larry held the gold card up once more. "I want you to be honest when you answer my next question. If you give us an honest answer, this card will belong to you."

The fortune teller was too afraid to tell another lie. "I'll tell you whatever I know," he replied. Money no longer mattered at that point-he just wanted to walk away alive. "In what context did you overhear Master Gordon saying that The Great Chemist was going to enter the mountains?" Larry asked. The fortune teller panicked for a moment, and his gaze turned shifty as he tried his best to recall what happened in the past.

"I want you to think about it properly before answering," Hanson uttered in an icy tone. The fortune teller was the most afraid of Hanson. Even though this was their first time meeting one another, the fortune teller could tell that Hanson had the power to decide the course of one's life. "Yes. Yes. I remember now." The fortune teller gulped as he felt his throat dry under pressure before answering the question. "Back then, there was a woman who came and requested to meet Master Gordon. She wanted to ask about The Great Chemist's whereabouts. Then, Master Gordon told her that she shouldn't bother trying anymore He told her that The Great Chemist had left into the mountains to practice his art and that no one would be able to find him anymore."

Hanson narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. The fortune teller hastily clarified himself. "I'm telling you the truth here. I don't know what they said after that." So, it's true that The Great Chemist is somewhere in the mountains. But why is it that Master Gordon used to agree to meet people, and why did he stop doing it? Was there something special about that woman? All sorts of thoughts flashed across Vania and Hanson's minds.

When the fortune teller noticed the confused look on Vania's face, he parted his lips to explain himself further. "There were tons of people who asked to meet Master Gordon in the past, but he only agreed to meet that one woman. No one knows why he did so." Even though the fortune teller couldn't actually tell anyone's fortune, he did have pretty good observation skills. He was eager to resolve all of the confusion in Hanson and Vania's minds so that he could send them off and finally feel some relief. He didn't even care about the money before him. Right then, he was worried that he wouldn't be able to survive what was the purpose of all that money if he couldn't live to enjoy it?

Nevertheless, Larry was a man who kept his word. He threw the card to the fortune teller. "This belongs to you now." The fortune teller stared at the card for a long time. Unfortunately, he couldn't muster the courage to pick the card up. "Do you guys have any more questions? I'll tell you everything that I know," he quivered as beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead due to the fear gripping his heart.

Hanson merely got to his feet without saying anything else in response to the fortune teller's terrified query.
