Blink!
Old Man Gu finally woke up after over 26 hours of sleep to recuperate.
He looked around in confusion.
"My head feels hazy, what happened?"
Captain Hagin looked at this old warrior. "The 9th hour miracle happened".
Old Man Gu was even more confused. "The 9th hour miracle?"
Captain Hagin nodded. He could already tell that the old man was having problems recollecting what happened so he no longer hesitated as sitting down, he narrated the full sequence of everything that happened yesterday.
By the time Captain Hagin was done explaining, Old Man Gu was wide-eyed and silent for a long time.
It was not everyday you get to hear such reality twisting stories.
Then, without saying a word, this old man supported himself up.
Silently, he walked towards the window of his room then pushing it open slightly, he placed his hands on the rim of the window and looked outside.
