She continued, “I reckoned that perhaps after you got lost, you met with some incident or sufferedsome injury that made you lose your memories and forget your identity. At that time, you were alreadyfour years old and knew who your parents were and also our house number. As long as you were alive,with your intelligence, you would definitely find a way to contact us, call the police for help, or ask akind stranger to phone us. But there was no news of you at all.
