The next day, Miles was the last person to leave the house. He had instructed the others to go before him since he planned to head straight to the hospital to talk to the former miner.

Mena fixed him a super greasy breakfast to soak up the alcohol he had consumed the night before. He ate it with glee and thanked her, then left the lodge.

The day was slightly drizzly, and he wondered if that would affect the dredging. So far, so good, the mining was moving at a consistent pace. He hoped that it continued that way. Then he remembered he did not call Doug the night before. He would have an earful later, but he could not worry about that at that moment.

By the time he arrived at the hospital, the drizzle had turned into proper rainfall. His worry about the mine increased. He parked his car and jogged to the hospital.

"Good evening. I'm here for Langa. I saw Dr. Joseph yesterday, and we spoke about—"

"Oh…" The attendant he was speaking to interrupted him and looked at her colleague. "You weren't informed?"

"Informed about what?" Miles's heart skipped a few beats. He had a couple of missed calls and unreplied texts on his phone that he did not want to worry about just yet.

"Mr. Miles," the doctor spotted him from afar and called out. Miles turned to face him and saw that his face was solemn and drawn. Miles walked up to him, and they exchanged pleasantries.

"I'm sorry, but Langa passed away late last night. I tried calling the number you gave me, but it was not going through."

"He passed away? How?" Miles was stunned because, according to the doctor, he was stable. Which killed him in twelve hours?

The news shocked Miles very profoundly. He could not hear anything else the doctor said. He thanked him and walked out of the hospital, then let the rain soak him as he walked to the Jeep. Once he got inside, he tried to collect himself again. There was no way there wasn't foul play. His phone buzzed in his pocket.

"Hello?" he answered. It was Doug. Miles felt a bit of relief to hear his voice. He proceeded to tell him everything that had happened.
