Chapter 1218 A Visit

Songjia did not forget her role as a translator and guide. Along the way, she enthusiastically introduced the local customs and customs of Greenland to Zhang Heng.

However, the latter’s reaction was rather dull. Zhang Heng enjoyed the scenery outside the window while chatting with Songjia, greenland was often voted as “The ten most worthwhile places to visit in the world”by various media and magazines. It was not without reason that it was one of the “Holy places to travel”.

It does have a beautiful scenery rarely seen in other parts of the world, and perhaps because of the relatively little development, the natural scenery of the island has been preserved intact, as the territory with the lowest population density in the world, 80 percent of the island is covered in ice and snow, with an average of 0.02 people per square kilometer.

In fact, these people usually gathered in a few cities. Therefore, for Greenland, there was no shortage of uninhabited glaciers and permafrost.

“Last time, you said… You came here for a scientific expedition, right? Are you alone, or will your teammates come one after another?”Song Jia noticed that Zhang Heng did not seem too interested in the beautiful scenery and food on the island, so, she changed the topic.

“No, I’m alone.”

Zhang Heng looked away from the mountain range outside the window.

“Alone? To complete all the scientific missions?”Song Jia gripped the steering wheel, her eyes widened, “Uh… I don’t want to seem like a busybody, especially since we’ve only met for less than an hour. However, because there are many uninhabited areas on the island, many explorers come here to explore every year.

“However, as far as I know, there are almost no solo expeditions because you have to face all kinds of complicated situations on the way. Some difficulties can only be overcome by a partner. So, if you really want to explore, perhaps I can introduce you to a few partners. Nuke also has a club set up by the explorers. There, you can find partners who share the same goal as you…”

“I’m used to traveling alone,”Zhang Heng Interrupted Songjia. He paused for a moment before adding, “Also… There’s no need to rush the expedition. When we reach Nuke, I want you to help me find two people.”

“Find people? Do you have friends in Greenland?”Songjia asked in surprise.

“No, I said in the email that I’m here for a scientific expedition, but to be more precise, I’m here for a scientific expedition that took place 18 years ago.”

Since he had already arrived at Greenland, Zhang Heng did not hide anything anymore. Furthermore, he still needed song JIA to act as a guide and translator to help him with his investigation on the island, therefore, there were some things that he had to reveal to the other party. As Zhang Heng spoke, he took out two photos from his travel bag and waved them in front of song Jia’s face.

“Do you know them?”

“Uh… Why are you looking for the people in the photos?”Song Jia didn’t answer immediately but asked instead.

“Like I said, I’m here to investigate a scientific expedition that happened 18 years ago, “Zhang Heng said. “The two people in the photos were involved in that expedition, so I want to find out more about them first.”

The two photos in Zhang Heng’s hands were found online. One of them was the guide of the expedition team, and the other was a psychiatrist. He was also one of the only two Greenlandic locals on the expedition team, other than that, Zhang Heng had also found two retired former Navy seals on the expedition team.

However, both of them were Americans and were not on the island. Zhang Heng suspected that they might be related to Kronos, so he did not want to get into contact with them for the time being.

“Who exactly are you?”Songjia’s gaze towards Zhang Heng changed. “Just treat me as a private investigator,”Zhang Heng said.

“Private investigator?”The beautiful Greenland Girl’s face revealed a hint of worry. “Will you make things difficult for them?”

“I won’t make things difficult for anyone, and I’m not here for them. I just want to investigate what happened back then. After that, I’ll leave, and no one will be hurt,”Zhang Heng said calmly, “So if you know someone, you can bring me to him directly. Otherwise, I can still find him through other people. It’ll just take a little more time. You should know better than me that there aren’t many people on the island.”

Song Jia seemed to be thinking. After a moment, she said, “Can I take a look at the photo again?”

“Of course.”Zhang Heng pasted the photo on the windshield of the passenger seat.

Songjia turned to look at the photo as she drove. She looked at it very seriously. In the process, she seemed to be trying to recall something. Finally, she said, “I know the photo on the left. It’s Dr. Baker. My mother knows him. He’s not a native of the island. He’s British. About twenty years ago, he came to live on the island. When I was young, I went to his house to play, but I haven’t seen him much in the past few years. As for the other person, I’m sorry, I don’t remember much. Your photo seems to be quite old.”

“That’s right, “Zhang Heng said.

The photo on the right was of a guide named Sartrus. Unlike Baker, who owned Facebook, Zhang Heng only managed to retrieve information about Sartrus from the official website of the Greenland Explorers Association, the last update of this information happened to be 18 years ago. In other words, there had been no news about Sartrus since the end of the expedition.

Zhang Heng had considered the possibility that Sartrus might have met with an accident during the expedition, but during his simple conversation with his father, the latter had not mentioned any casualties during the expedition, and Zhang Heng had not found any news on this matter, therefore, he was more inclined to believe that Sartrus was still alive, but he did not know why he had suddenly changed his name.

“Is Dr. Baker in Nuuk?”Zhang Heng asked.

“Yes, his clinic and residence are in Nuuk. After all, this is also the most populated place on the island, so it’s convenient for him to practice medicine. Although few people would come to see him about mental illness, the people here don’t pay much attention to this aspect. Therefore, Baker is actually quite free, and he is also working as a psychological counselor at the University of Greenland.”

“Okay, then let’s go find him.” “Now? Don’t you need to go to the hotel and get some food?”

“No, it’s getting dark. It’s not too late to go to the hotel after we meet Baker. As for the food, I’ve already eaten on the plane. If you’re hungry, I can give you ten minutes to eat when we reach Nuke, “Zhang Heng said.

“Forget it, I’m not that hungry right now. Let’s go find Dr. Baker first. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen him. If we’re lucky, we can have dinner at his place,”song Jia said.
