I took the unconscious Jiang Qiqi to the hospital. This child didn't reveal my identity; she must have made up her mind to face death alone.

I felt deeply guilty. I shouldn't have told her about my sister's situation in the first place, causing her this kind of pain.

I stayed at the hospital all night, finally waiting for her to wake up.

Looking at her pitiful appearance, I couldn't help but think of my own sister.

These two unfortunate children, both harmed by Maige in such a way.

"Lianjie, don't cry, I'm fine now."

I could wipe away my tears, but my voice still choked up.

"It's okay, rural kids are tough. When I was a child, I was rolled into the wheels of a tractor in the village and didn't die, I'm really lucky..."

Jiang Qiqi's ordeal made me even more suspicious of Maige's true identity.

When Shen Lu mentioned that Maige had an owl tattoo on his right forearm, I had a candidate in mind, but this person was too important to me. I convinced myself not to speculate.

However, yesterday, when Jiang Qiqi was beaten like that, Huajie refused to lift a finger for me. This abnormal situation forced me to once again doubt Maige's identity.

I didn't want to admit it, but I couldn't help but suspect him.

The Maige I desperately searched for might be the person closest to me.

There is an owl tattoo on Luo Junyu's right arm. Two years ago, he was cooking alone in the kitchen, spilled the pot, and hot oil poured directly onto his right arm, turning that owl into the terrible scar it is now.

If he is Maige, it would also explain why Huajie didn't dare to touch me.

But based on this evidence alone, I can't convince myself to convict Luo Junyu.

I need more concrete evidence, I need Huajie's phone, I need to follow the clues and find Maige...
