Chapter 397 - 385 New Journey
Helsinki.
As the capital of Finland, Helsinki is the largest and southernmost city. Although it is not within the Arctic Circle, daylight hours here in winter are still only about five to six hours.
Helsinki theoretically does not experience polar night, but it’s very common for the sun not to be seen for two whole months here. This is because, when it snows or rains, the sun is hidden, and even without precipitation, the sky is easily enveloped by thick clouds. Therefore, sunlight is a luxury in Helsinki’s winter.
Kate considerately helped Yang Yi into a coat, but when they stepped out from the warm airport, Yang Yi couldn’t help but shiver from the cold.
"It’s so cold here!"
Yang Yi instinctively wrapped his coat tighter around himself, while Xiao Ran checked her phone, then said loudly, "I checked earlier, today’s sunrise is at eight forty-five, and sunset is at three thirty-six, but why isn’t there any sunshine? Did I miss something while I was sleeping?"
The sun should have been in the sky since it hadn’t reached sunset yet, but the sky was dark, with streetlights all lit up.
"You missed the thick layer of clouds."
Yang Yi answered Xiao Ran’s question with a smile, then waved his hand, "Let’s walk forwards, someone should be here to meet us."
Kate pushed Yang Yi forward on the somewhat slippery ground for a few steps, and then a middle-aged man with a thick beard approached them.
The middle-aged man came up to Yang Yi, looked him in the eye for a moment, then extended his hand and said, "Hello, I am Kanelva."
