Chapter 1240 Doctors And Guides
“You don’t have to worry about us.”Song Jia obviously didn’t take the Lame Man’s warning to heart.
After a pause, he said, “You said that you’re different from those people down there. Then let me ask you separately, who are you and those people down there?”
“Those people who died downstairs are voodoo fanatics. Of course, they’re not the voodoo religion that originated in West Africa and played with corpses as you know them. No, strictly speaking, they are indeed the voodoo religion that you know of. It’s just that they’ve been taken over by someone else.”The lame man was indeed very cooperative, he answered all questions.
“A dove taking over a magpie’s Nest?”
“Yes, their original God has declined, or rather… it has never been that powerful. In short, it has been replaced by an even more powerful existence, so some of the believers have also been transformed. As far as I know, other than the old nest in Africa, many other places of voodoo are different from the original. In fact, even a small part of Africa has changed.”
“Why did those fanatics attack Olay and Alicia? And where did Dr. Baker Go? I saw his car in the parking lot outside. He should have been here not too long ago.”
“They attacked the two Inuit because the Inuit have been trying to track them down, and they’ve been very close lately. As for the Doctor, he did come here to retrieve something, but he left after he got it. I have no idea where he went.”
The limping man had just finished his sentence when he saw Zhang Heng take out the knife again. Songjia hadn’t even finished translating yet, so he had no choice but to change his words, “Alright, I lied earlier. Dr. Baker was indeed here, but he’s already dead.”

Zhang Heng frowned. Saving Olai and Alicia was a matter of convenience. The main purpose of his visit to the Museum of art was to find the Doctor and learn about the expedition team from the latter, in the end, he didn’t expect the doctor to be dead. However, fortunately, he caught Sachus here. Sachus used to be the guide of the expedition team, but for some reason, he became the curator of the museum.
He even changed his name and appearance. If not for Zhang Heng’s observational skills, it would have been difficult to recognize him, no wonder there was no news about him online.
“Who killed him?”Song Jia was shocked.
“Me.”Since he couldn’t lie, the crippled man could only tell the truth, “But believe me, I had no choice. After all, Baker and I have been friends for almost 20 years. I actually didn’t want to kill him, but if those fanatics find out what he did, neither of us will have a good ending.”
“He’s telling the truth,”Zhang Heng said to Songjia.
“You’re still his friend? So you killed an old friend that you’ve been friends with for 20 years? !”Songjia was confused, “Just because he took something from you, and you’re afraid of being implicated by those fanatics, aren’t you their leader?”
“Yes, I’m their leader, but they only listen to me when there’s action. Normally, I can’t control them. They only worship one person and listen to that person. Furthermore, you’ve never interacted with those people before, so you don’t understand their way of doing things. They won’t reason with you. To You, it’s a small matter, but to them, it’s enough to kill. In fact, that group of people enjoys killing, and when they can’t even find a suitable sacrifice, they will attack their own people.”

The crippled man’s words sent a chill down Songjia’s spine. From the looks of it, it wasn’t a bad thing for Zhang Heng to capture them all at once. However, with so many people dead, Songjia didn’t know how Zhang Heng would end up. Just like what she had said before.., the police might not be willing to believe such a story, and even if they were willing to believe it, Zhang Heng was only a tourist. He didn’t have the authority to enforce the law in Greenland, let alone start a massacre.

As if seeing through his worries, the crippled man said, “I can help you deal with the bodies downstairs. As long as you’re willing to spare my life, most of these people are actually not from Greenland. A small number of them have lost contact with their relatives and friends after joining Voodoo. They’ve long been treated as dead by their families. So even if they go missing, as long as they’re dealt with properly, it won’t attract the police’s attention.”
“But you also killed Dr. Baker!”Song Jia said.
“I said I’m sorry, but Dr. Baker is not a local. His clinic has been closed for a while, and he rarely interacts with people. I can find someone at school to help him apply for a long leave. Just say that he… went back to China to recuperate. He can always cover it
up.”
“What disease did Dr. Baker get that made him become like this?”
“How should I explain it?”The crippled man thought for a moment, “On a physiological level, there’s actually nothing wrong with him. At most, he has some anxiety and insomnia. But on the other hand, he and I have been suffering for a long time. Really, if you’re not us, it’s probably hard for you to understand this pain. Especially recently, we’ve hardly slept well.” “Why?”
“Because that guy will come to us when we are asleep, “the lame man said, “We can’t get rid of it. It’s like a ghost that has been haunting us for so many years. Dr. Baker and I are looking for a way out of this nightmare, but unfortunately, neither he nor I have succeeded, so you don’t have to feel too sorry for him. Death is actually a relief for us.”
“Then why are you still so afraid of Death?”Song Jia asked.
“Do you think I haven’t thought about killing myself?”The lame man sighed, “If you have tried to commit suicide, you will know how strong the survival instinct of humans is. No matter what happens tomorrow, it is always good to have one more day to live.”
“So you have become like this because of that scientific expedition more than ten years
ago?”
The crippled man had been answering Zhang Heng’s questions fluently, but when he heard the question, his expression changed drastically. “Who are you people? How do you know about the Scientific Expedition?”
“Looks like we can finally get to the main point,”Zhang Heng said. “Let him talk about the scientific expedition that year. Tell him everything he saw and heard. It’s best not to miss a single detail.”
Song Jia translated Zhang Heng’s words to the crippled man. “We know that you were the guide of the expedition team that year. You led them deep into the no man’s land. Where exactly did you see them?”
