As Jack finished his remarks, the room fell silent for a moment. Then, Samuel Evans, whose condition visibly improved in recent days, spoke up with a newfound seriousness in his voice, “I totally agree with Jack! We used to dismiss things based on mere intuition. That’s why I’ve been unable to find Jagoan for all these years!”

Desmond nodded in agreement, adding, “Sometimes, you have to defy your own intuition. After my sister’s accident, we searched Aurous Hill for a while. When we couldn’t locate Jagoan, we intuitively assumed he had left the city. But maybe he never left at all!”

Marcus remained silent for a moment, his brow furrowing in deep thought. Suddenly, he looked up and said, “Now that I think about it, Aurous Hill holds so many mysteries. Moreover, based on the scattered clues we’ve gathered so far, I suspect that the benefactor might actually be from Aurous Hill!”

Desmond chimed in, confirming Marcus’s observations, “Indeed. The benefactor chose to hold the Rejuvenation Pill Auction here, granting the opportunity to the local Moore Group. I’ve received some news indicating that after the auction, the Moore Group contributed over 10 billion U.S. dollars in taxes to Aurous Hill and donated billions more to charity. It’s likely that the auction proceeds accounted for that sum. Moreover, the Moore Group invested over 100 million U.S. dollars in constructing a massive welfare home in Aurous Hill. They claim it’s the largest of its kind globally, providing not only the basic needs for thousands of orphans but also top-notch educational resources. One must have a deep affection for Aurous Hill to make such a decision!”

Jack’s eyes sparkled with newfound insight. He couldn’t help but blurt out, “It seems that our benefactor holds a special place in their heart for orphans! Could it be that he, too, experienced being an orphan and now cares so deeply for others in similar circumstances?”

Desmond nodded, acknowledging the possibility “That’s certainly a valid hypothesis, as Jack suggested.”

Objects retrieved from pits, especially those buried near bodies, tend to retain a faint odor no matter how meticulously they are cleaned after being unearthed.
