00:00Ethan Miller had grown up on a small 140-acre farm just outside town.
00:05It wasn't the biggest farm in the county, but it had been in his family for three generations.
00:10His grandfather started it after returning from the military.
00:14His father kept it running through good years and bad ones.
00:18And now, it was Ethan's responsibility.
00:21Unlike most farmers around him, Ethan didn't rely on new machines.
00:26Most of his equipment was already 15 to 20 years old.
00:30Some of it came from auctions just like the one he had just left.
00:34His father had always told him one thing.
00:37If you understand a machine, it'll last longer than any loan you take.
00:42Ethan believed that.
00:44That's why, instead of upgrading to expensive tractors like his neighbors,
00:48he spent his winters fixing and rebuilding old ones.
00:51But this tractor felt different.
00:54That evening, after bringing it home, Ethan parked it beside his workshop.
00:58When the sun started going down, he came back with a flashlight and opened the engine panel again.
01:04At first glance, everything looked old, worn, untouched.
01:09But then he saw it.
01:11Something inside the engine didn't match what he remembered.
01:14A small metal part, slightly modified, not factory-made.
01:19Ethan leaned closer.
01:21Someone had changed something inside this engine.
01:24And it wasn't random.
01:26In part 3, you'll see why that small change made Ethan stop everything.
