48 Hours a Day-Chapter 1228: The Trio
Chapter 1228 The Trio
Ali had always been the most unremarkable of the trio.
Compared to the powerful and hot-tempered ole, and the quick-witted and meticulous Alicia, who had been full of legends since the moment she was born, Ali was indeed very ordinary, although he had been learning all sorts of knowledge about becoming a shaman from the old shaman in the tribe, he had not learned anything in such a long time. Moreover, compared to those mysterious stars and obscure dreams.., he was obviously more interested in rock music and basketball stars. When he had nothing to do, he would run over to Nuuk. He even taught himself rap, started writing songs, and uploaded them to youtube.
He usually looked lazy, but Ole knew that Eli wasn’t stupid at all. He just didn’t put his energy on the right path. In fact, every time Alicia came up with an idea.., ali helped to perfect it. If Alicia was the decision-maker and Olai was the executor, then Ali’s position was that of a dog-head strategist.
Olai even complained that Ali was a typical Inuit. He was not as honest and hardworking as the Inuit. Instead, his mind was full of tricks.
But now, Olai was glad that Ali was the one who stayed downstairs. If it was anyone else, Olai might not be sure if they could sense something was wrong. But as classmates, he could not believe that Ali knew nothing about their current situation, since they were young, they had played together. He did not believe that Ali would not know anything about their current situation.
However, after such a long time, their team’s military advisor did not make a single move. This made Olai, who was confident that Ali would find a way to save them, Waver.
Did Ali really do something stupid this time? Or did the other party just happen to have a bad stomach? Thinking of this, Olai started to feel uneasy again. However, he was someone who could not hide anything. Looking at the conflicted expression on his face, even Songjia realized something. Therefore, she looked awkwardly at Zhang Heng, who was behind her, as if she wanted to ask him what to do next.
Before Zhang Heng could say anything, the hut they were in suddenly started to shake.
“Is… is there an earthquake?”Song Jia asked in surprise. The look in her eyes was a little nervous, because the earthquake had come after she had just heard the mysterious and terrifying story, it was inevitable that she would overthink it.
However, there had been earthquakes in Greenland before. The thought only flashed through Songjia’s mind, until she looked out of the window and saw the blood-red Aurora.
Songjia’s brain exploded with a bang. Then, a strong fear rushed to her and engulfed her whole body in an instant. In the next moment, every finger and hair could not help but tremble.
The earthquake caused many people to run out of the house, especially considering the possibility of a tsunami. Some people were ready to evacuate from the beach, but it was at this time that they saw the Red Aurora, they could not help but stop and take out their phones to turn on the camera and camera mode.
The main reason was that the Red Aurora had always been rare, but it still appeared in this month where the aurora did not often appear. It was a pity that they did not leave a souvenir. At this time, the tourists also exclaimed in admiration, they were glad that they had chosen to travel to Greenland at this time. This decision could not have been made more wisely.
Perhaps only the few people in the small house could truly understand the meaning behind the earthquake and the Red Aurora.
The moment Olai saw the Aurora, his expression changed drastically. However, he was not as terrified as Songjia. He only muttered to himself, “The legend is actually true… why did it have to be at this moment? is something going to happen?”
On the other side, the previously unconscious Alicia had also woken up at this moment. However, her mouth had been sealed by Songjia, so she could only make incomprehensible babbling sounds. However, looking at her eyes.., they were filled with a rarely seen hatred. In fact, they had even become a little crazed.
“She, she… What happened to her?”Songjia also noticed Alicia’s abnormal behavior after coming back to her senses, and asked Olai beside her.
The Inuit youth sighed and said in a deep voice, “In the story I told you previously, I forgot to mention that Alicia’s parents were killed by that group of unknown people that night. When the incident happened, her father had to protect her with a hunting rifle and deal with dozens of people on the opposite side alone. He stalled them for a full two minutes, allowing her mother to escape with her. Unfortunately, her mother had just given birth and did not have much strength. In the end, she was caught up by someone and was stabbed in the back by a harpoon. Therefore, Alicia and that group of people and the existence behind them also became mortal enemies.”
“Is that why you’re trying to track down those people?”Song Jia looked at Alicia with sympathy.
She had completely shifted her focus to the other two. She was about to beg Zhang Heng to let her go, but she didn’t expect Zhang Heng to actually put away the pistol in his hand and walk to Alicia’s side, he used a knife to cut open the bed sheet that was wrapped around her hands and feet.
Olai did not seem to have expected Zhang Heng to do that. He was in a daze for a moment, and he even forgot what he wanted to say. After Alicia escaped, she immediately went to her companion’s side. However, the way she looked at Zhang Heng was very complicated, the vigilance in her eyes was still very strong. Zhang Heng put away the knife and said to song JIA, “Tell them that I’m not their enemy, and I’m also investigating something like them. Perhaps we can work together.”
If not for the earthquake and the Red Aurora, Zhang Heng would not have been able to find a suitable opening to negotiate with them, but now.., after realizing that these young Inuit novice shamans had real enemies, this little conflict and misunderstanding between the two sides was nothing.
“They said… you already know their identity, but they still haven’t been able to confirm your background.”
Olai and Alicia whispered to each other before Songjia translated.
“Like I said, I’m here to investigate something, so how can they believe me? Do I have to swear an oath?”
“No, they said they have a sacred object that can detect whether a person harbors malice toward them or their tribe. The sacred object isn’t here right now, but it’s already on its way. If you really want to cooperate with them, you’d better show some sincerity and let them meet up with their companions.”
“Sure,”Zhang Heng agreed. He wasn’t worried that Olai and Alicia would go back on their words after meeting up with the people downstairs. Since he could capture the two of them once, he could capture them a second time.
Olai and Alicia were worried about Ali’s safety, so they didn’t say anything else. They ran downstairs and saw that their van was still in its original position, however, Ali’s shadow was gone from the van. Instead, there was a pool of blood in the back seat.
