Chapter 1271: Deduction

“If the person in the car isn’t Ali, who else could it be?”Olai asked.

“I don’t know,”Zhang Heng said, “I’ve never seen Ali, nor Hans. I only said what I observed at the scene. The deceased was very young, about 176 to 178 centimeters tall, and weighed about 70 kilograms. He was male, had a crew cut, and was left-handed. He had a habit of exercising, and he maintained a good figure. He had just broken up with his girlfriend,”Zhang Heng said.

Alessia and Ole looked at each other. “If this description is accurate, then the person who died in the car was indeed not Eli, but it wasn’t Hans either. We don’t know such a person.”

When Songjia heard this, she couldn’t help but interrupt. “Forget about the front, but how did you know about breaking up with your girlfriend?”

“The deceased’s back smelled of alcohol, mud, and grease. When he struggled, he rubbed himself against the seat. The smell of grease and alcohol in this area should have been left behind in the alley next to the bar after a big drink. This means that he probably drank alone and didn’t call his friends. Obviously, something sad happened to him, and for a boy his age, most likely it has something to do with feelings. This point will be confirmed later.”

Zhang Heng paused for a moment before continuing, “When he was struggling, he kicked the chair in front of him, so I also found his shoe print on the back of the chair. I can see that his sports shoes do not fit his feet. This means that the shoes were given to him by someone else, but his family background is not bad. The perfume he uses is a luxury brand, so there is no reason for him to force himself to wear uncomfortable shoes. Unless the person who gave the shoes to him means a lot to him, but he was drinking alone, so I pushed him to the side and they broke up. He wore the shoes to reminisce about the past.”

Everyone was stunned by Zhang Heng’s analysis. Ole opened his mouth wide and asked, “Who are you? Holmes’roommate?”

It took Alessia quite a while before she came back to her senses and frowned, “Why did this person appear in our van? What does he have to do with those fanatics? Is he like you, investigating the evil spirit?”

“No, he’s a tourist visiting Greenland,”said kuna. She looked at Zhang Heng, “You’re right. He did come to the Arctic Circle to relax after a breakup. He disappeared two days ago after drinking at a bar.”

This time, it was Zhang Heng’s turn to be surprised. “Did your little elf tell you this as well?”

“No, I saw the news.”Kuna pointed at the satellite TV in the living room.

“…”

“Half an hour before you came back, the police found his body on the beach. They are asking for clues from the people. He is an American. There are 27 knife wounds on his body. The appearance of his body is consistent with what you said,”Kuna said.

“This means that he has been in the hands of those fanatics for the whole day last night. By the way, Sachus also mentioned that these guys would hold regular ceremonies, and their sacrifices were usually people from outside the island. But this time, they didn’t kill the sacrifice right away. Instead, they brought him to our van and stabbed him to death. They hoped that we would mistake the dead person for Eli.”Alethea quickly sorted out the whole story.

“That’s right. Your analysis is very reasonable and logical. What’s more, it’s rare that you’re not emotional. It seems that you’ve grown a lot this time. But you should also know that you’re accusing one of our friends and relatives of betraying us. There’s no more serious crime than this, not to mention that the person you suspect is about to take over his teacher’s position and become a shaman.”Kona put down the coffee cup in her hand, his expression also became serious.

“Who? Hans is going to become a shaman?”Ole was a little stunned, “Although he is not stupid, his mind is not on this. His learning speed is not as fast as mine, let alone compared to Alethea. If he wants to become a shaman, it will be at least seven or eight years later. Besides, how old are we now? “Becoming a shaman is too young.”

“There’s no other way. His teacher can’t hold on much longer. GABA’s health has always been poor. He felt that his time was coming, so he was so anxious these years. He wanted to give everything to his students. He had high expectations for Eli, but unfortunately, he chose the wrong method.”

Kuna sighed again, “I’ve told him many times not to push young people too hard, especially since Eli is the kind of person who always has his own ideas even though he’s quiet on the surface. I was worried that there would be a rift between the master and disciple, but it doesn’t matter now. GABA doesn’t have much time left anyway. Last month, he went to the hospital for a physical examination and found a malignant tumor in his head. He can’t operate on that location either. Now, he has to mix some herbs and eat them himself. Their tribe can’t go without a shaman for a day, so Eli’s days of becoming a shaman are not far away.”

“We have to tell his teacher what he has done before that,”Alicia said anxiously, “Let’s not talk about the hatred between Hans and Luke for now. I’m worried that he has already joined that evil and mysterious sect without us knowing. If he becomes the shaman of their tribe, it is very likely that the entire tribe will fall into the hands of that evil spirit. I have seen that fellow’s believers. They have all lost their minds and become crazy. They are also very aggressive. “Teacher, GABA might not listen to us, but you are the most powerful and respected shaman of the Inuit. If you tell Gaba, he will definitely reconsider letting Ali take his place.”

“This is not a small matter. Although I am willing to believe your deduction, I need more evidence to accuse a young man of being a traitor.”

“Of course, we brought back Sachus. He used to be the leader of those fanatics. uh, strictly speaking, he is only the commander of the operation, but he should be aware of the actions of those fanatics. However, there is something wrong with his mental state, and he is unable to communicate with others normally. Therefore, I am afraid that I can only invite you to take a look in his dream,”Alicia said, “Maybe we can find out where the relic is.”

“Okay.”Kuna didn’t refuse. “I’ll make some preparations. You can bring him in.”

At this time, Zhang Heng spoke up, “I’m sorry, this is an internal matter of the Inuit. I didn’t want to interrupt, but I have to say, from what I know, that… the evil spirit you speak of is also very good at invading other people’s dreams, so if you want to enter the dreams of his followers, it might be very dangerous.”

“Thank you for your reminder, young man.”Kuna nodded, “Although your appearance looks very cold, it seems that you still inherited a part of your mother’s gentleness and kindness. I will be careful. Moreover, I still have my little elf, she will also protect me.”
