48 Hours a Day - Chapter 1231
Chapter 1231 Speculation
After searching the clinic, Zhang Heng and Song Jia returned to the street and stood guard in front of the performer who had jumped off the building. Song Jia watched helplessly as the other party slowly died. Her young eyes gradually lost their luster, but there was nothing she could do, in addition, during this period, the ambulance had also been missing.
Songjia could not bear to see this happen, so she made two more calls to the hospital. Unexpectedly, both calls were busy. It was not until she made a third call that the call was picked up. However, she was told that the ambulance had been dispatched, there was no way for them to rush here.
The hospital said that this was already the ninth emergency call they had received in a short five minutes. The only ambulance they had was long gone, and there were still emergency calls coming in. Without exception, all of them were suicides, normally, they would not receive so many calls for a month or two. The medical staff and emergency equipment were already running out.
The situation at the police station was similar. The police were also confused about the sudden suicides. They were trying to gather clues from the citizens through the radio, but so far, they had not gotten any results, on the contrary, the police officers were in a mess.
“He’s dying, “Zhang Heng suddenly said.
After he said that, the heart of the performer finally stopped beating. His pupils dilated, and the expression on his face was fixed at the last moment.
Song Jia Shivered, but when she looked at Zhang Heng, she realized that the latter had already flipped through the notebook that he had found on the performer.
Most of the notes were music scores, but from his previous performance, she could tell that he had embarked on a very difficult path of art. It was destined to be difficult for him to gain the approval of the secular world. Zhang Heng had also studied piano, in his eyes, this thing could not even be called music, because even a beginner who did not recognize any of the five-line music scores could play it better than this piece of music score.
Since the latter was just a random patchwork of crazy noises, Zhang Heng glanced at the messy score and passed the notebook to Song Jia. “What else is written on it?”
Song Jia took the notebook, but after reading a few pages, her brows furrowed. Zhang Heng could tell that she was very resistant to the contents, but even so, she endured the intense discomfort and finished reading the contents, in some places, she even read it several times.
“The most frequently mentioned word on the notebook is something like ‘glorious perfection’. It’s a bit like the doomsday judgment in the Bible or the prophecy of the Mayans. The person who wrote this thing firmly believes that that day will come. When that day comes, there will be no distinction between good and evil in the world, and there will be no legal, moral, or ethical constraints. Everyone will be happy and free on Earth, killing each other and enjoying the joy of slaughter and destruction.”Song Jia paused at this point, “There are also some descriptions of the dreams he had, but most of the sentences don’t make sense.”
“Okay.”Zhang Heng nodded but didn’t say anything. He handed the receipt over. “Take a look at this receipt. where is it?”
“This is the receipt from the supermarket. I know the supermarket. It’s about three kilometers away from us,”song Jia answered quickly this time.
“Then is this place also near that supermarket?”Zhang Heng said as he waved the pen in front of the girl’s eyes. Songjia saw the patterns carved on the tip of the pen and the small words hidden inside, she was surprised by Zhang Heng’s strong observation.
“This is the abbreviation of the Nuuk Art Museum, “Songjia said after looking at it carefully, “It’s also the only private museum on the island. It was built in 2005, and it has a large collection of art. Not only are there paintings, but there are also various carvings. It’s quite popular with tourists, but it’s only open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and weekends. Why? Is there a problem?”
Even though the player who jumped off the building played the violin like a ghost, he was still an artist. In Songjia’s opinion, it was normal for him to go to art museums for inspiration.
Zhang Heng was noncommittal, “Do you still remember the story Aulet told? It was a group of people who attacked Alicia, not just one person. They all came from some mysterious group, and since they were a group, they should have a meeting place. and Alicia has a blood feud with these people. She must have been tracking them down all these years. Even though there were only three people in her small group, I believe the tribe behind them would have provided them with some help. However, there has been no result. This means that these people have been hiding well over the years.”
“Do you think they would hide in an art museum?”Song Jia’s eyes widened. “An art museum is a very smart choice, because these people seem to have some mental problems more or less. I don’t know if they became believers because they are more sensitive, or if they became sensitive because they became believers. In short, it would be quite conspicuous if they acted together, but if it was an art gathering, there wouldn’t be such a problem. You said earlier that the art museum is private and was built in 2005?”
“That’s right.”
“Yes, those Inuit people were attacked for no reason, and some of them even died. I don’t think they’re going to let the matter rest so easily. There should be an investigation going on as well. These people must have sensed the danger, so they built this museum. Taking into account the time it took to build it, it happened to be prepared after the earthquake and the Red Aurora. In addition, it opens three times a week. The rest of the time can be used for internal gatherings,”Zhang Heng said calmly, “Therefore, after the Doctor left his residence, the most likely place for him to go was there.”
Songjia knew everything that Zhang Heng said. Even though she was a native of the island, she knew more than Zhang Heng. However, if Zhang Heng hadn’t pointed it out.., songjia wouldn’t have been able to piece together these seemingly unrelated things into a complete clue.
In fact, if she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that someone could do something that only appeared in novels and television dramas. It was only at this moment that she truly believed in the identity of Detective Zhang Heng, and the purpose of the latter’s visit to Greenland.
However, after learning that Doctor Baker was likely to run to the art museum, Songjia couldn’t help but hesitate. After all, there were only two people on their side, according to Zhang Heng, the museum was likely to be the gathering place of that mysterious group. Not to mention the number of enemies inside, just the guards at the museum alone were enough to give them a headache.
Songjia wanted to call the police to deal with it, but the only thing they could do was Zhang Heng’s guess.
