Once upon a time, in a small village, there was an antique shop owned by a forgery master named Varnish. People would come from far and wide to admire his beautiful pieces, but little did they know, they were all fake!

One day, a young girl named Susie visited the shop and noticed a strange motive behind the border of one of the paintings. She posed a theory that the painting might actually be a forgery.

Varnish tried to make the painting vanish by covering it with extra varnish, but Susie was determined to prove her theory. She worked hard and eventually uncovered the truth.

Varnish was shocked when Susie revealed the painting was indeed a forgery and begged for forgiveness. From that day onward, Varnish dedicated himself to creating true masterpieces and never tried to fool anyone again.

The end.
