NovelEnglishChapter 839:
After lunch, they split up. Norah scrolled through her phone, sending recent photos of Ivy and Reggie to Marlin.
Their targets: anyone in town over forty, the generation with the longest memories.
The sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in fiery hues. Marlin and Norah met back at the stall, their
faces etched with disappointment. The search had yielded nothing.
Dejected, Norah slumped back in her chair. This town, once a beacon of hope, now felt like a dead end.

Just as she was about to lose all hope, a voice broke through the silence.
“Excuse me, young lady!”
A middle-aged woman jogged toward them, gasping for breath. “You're looking for someone, aren't you? | just
talked to my grandma, and she thinks she might know them!” A sliver of hope pierced through Norah's despair.
“She used to sell vegetables here,” the woman continued. “Knew half the town. | described them, and it jogged
her memory.”
“Can we talk to her?” Norah's voice trembled with a mix of anticipation and exhaustion. “We've been searching
for them for so long. We're here to look for my family. We have photos, but no address. It’s been a long shot.”
Norah grasped the woman's hand, her eyes wide with anticipation.
Norah's beauty was undeniable, and it was hard to resist her when she looked so earnest. It was no wonder the
middle-aged woman had mentioned Norah's search to her grandmother and even relayed new information to
Norah.

“No problem. Cwith me.”
Norah and Marlin followed the woman until they encountered an elderly lady with gray hair.

“The people you're looking for are likely from Bay Village. You might want to head there,” the old woman said.
“Thank you, ma’am.”
Afterward, the middle-aged woman insisted they stay for dinner. Gratefully, they accepted and then departed.
While tidying up, the woman discovered scash hidden beneath a plate. She muttered to herself, “It's no
surprise | felt a fondness for them. They're truly good-hearted. | hope they find their family soon.”
Marlin and Norah gathered information about Bay Village and were quickly directed toward it.
The locals explained that Bay Village was located on the coast, beyond a hill, with no paved road leading there.
To reach it, one had to hike over the hill since cars could only go as far as the base.
Marlin parked at the hill’s base and shut the car door. He then retrieved a toolkit filled with camping gear.
