    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 794


    Gerald found himself sitting crossed-legged on the port in his resentment.


    Nothing else could be done. All he could do was wait for M’s return and exin to her what had


    happened the night before when she finally came back.


    The rest of the day passed by quickly and before M knew it, it was already night. With the sea being


    so peaceful as the ocean liner sailed on, even the faintest of sea breezes could be heard.


    “That’s enough dwelling on it, don’t you think, M? Since we’re all probably tired by now, let’s go get a


    bite!” said Molly as she prepared to go get some food for her.


    “Alright…!” replied M with a slight nod.


    “Now that’s more like it! Still, why did the investigation team have to take our phones away? How


    boring!” said Molly who just wasn’t used to not having her phone around her.


    “But of course! Private information about the investigation could easily be leaked if we had our phones


    with us! While being strict isn’t necessarily a bad thing, I never thought that they’d even take my watch


    away! Humph!” replied Wanda.


    “Regardless, while we had been told that we wereing all the way out here to investigate the quality


    of the sea, I really doubt that that’s the case, or at least I feel that that’s not our sole mission. After all, I


    saw a few fierce-looking people boarding the ship with us earlier who looked like they could very well


    be soldiers. Why would such people be needed in an investigation mission?” said Molly, evidently trying


    to distract M from her negative thoughts.


    “…Huh? What are you getting at?” asked Wanda, slightly astonished.


    “Call it a sixth sense whiches with having an elder brother who’s also a soldier. They really didn’t


    need to put on such a grand show if their motive was simply to investigate the ocean’s quality. What


    more, while I was helping to move some things into the conference room earlier, guess what I saw?”


    replied Molly as she suddenly lowered her voice.

    “Go on…” said M and Wanda simultaneously as they looked at her. After all, even they had sensed


    that the investigation team was somewhat mysterious. The team seemed to have been studying


    something throughout most of the day.


    “I saw a drawing which they must have used during their meeting! It looked like some kind of building…


    Haha! Wouldn’t it be wild if the investigation team was actually on a mission to locate some underwater


    pce?” said Molly as sheughed out loud.


    Instead ofughing along, however, M and Wanda could only look at each other in dismay. The way


    Molly had said it had made their entire expedition sound and feel much more mysterious than it should


    have been.


    “…You’re not pulling our leg, right?”


    “Of course I’m not! There’s no reason for me to lie to both of you! Besides, they noticed that I saw the


    picture and they sternly warned me not to say a word about it! I was so terrified that I immediately ran


    off!” replied Molly as she stuck her tongue out.


    “…Well, therger picture doesn’t concern us… Let’s just stick to doing the things we were assigned


    to!” said M with a bitterugh.


    In response, both Wanda and Molly nodded in agreement.


    It was at that moment when all three of them heard footstepsing closer to their room, followed by a


    few knocks on the door. Upon opening it, they saw Hallie standing outside with her arms crossed.


    “What do you want?” asked Molly.


    “Professor Shevall wants to hold a meeting, so I’m here to inform you about it!” said Hallie in a rather


    reluctant tone.


    “Fine, tell him that we’ll be on our way immediately!” replied Molly, a smug smile on her face.


    Rolling her eyes, Hallie then left their room.


    Professor Winston Shevall was the leader of the operation. He looked to be around seventy and while


    he seemed rather strict, he was also extremely knowledgeable. That made M respect him a lot. From


    what the girls had heard, he had been in charge of finding a sponsor and forming the investigation


    team as well.


    After a while, the trio arrived at the conference room for the meeting. Including the three of them, there


    were about thirty members in the investigation team. The meeting itself wasn’t anything special.


    Professor Shevall simply wanted to emphasize the things that they needed to look out for during the


    expedition.


    Halfway through their meeting, however, Professor Shevall suddenly began coughing terribly. From that


    point on, he started scratching his neck from time to time.


    Since M was sitting right beside the professor, her gaze inadvertently fell upon the back of his neck.


    What M saw made her instantly stunned…
