Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1080
The bodies didn’t belong to just anyone. The corpses were all his brothers from the Soul Pce!
Gerald already had a bad feeling earlier when he saw how familiar the helicopter looked. After finding
out that his assumption had been correct, Gerald couldn’t help but feel extremely upset.
After all, those from the Soul Pce were essentially also part of the Crawford family!
From the looks of it, they must havee to the desert to look for him. Gerald was well aware that the
helicopters from the Soul ce had been specially designed to be near impossible to crash. Looking at
all the many spots of spilled gasoline that had darkened the sand, however, it was made evident how
the culprit had gotten the helicopter to crash in the first ce.
Still, who could’ve been the murderer?
After carefully checking each of the four corpses, he finally found a clue on one of them.
This person, in particr, had managed to crawl quite a distance away from the helicopter after it
crashed. Gerald was sure that he had crawled since there was a faint trail of him dragging his body
along the sand before eventually dying.
Lifting the corpse’s robe up, Gerald immediately saw an imprint of a palm on his chest. This person
didn’t die from the helicopter crash… He was murdered after it crashnded!
Shocked by his discovery, Gerald muttered, “This palm print…”
Since the people from the Soul Pce were all champions, ordinary people would definitely have been
unable to kill them at all. Only people stronger than he was would be able to do the deed. In other
words, the murderer had to be a great master!
Since the palm print on the chest was of a left palm, it wasn’t hard for Gerald to put two and two
together.
A left-handed great master… This could only have been the work of Christopher Moldell!
With that in mind, Gerald immediately heightened his vignce.
Of course it was that old man. Gerald had personally witnessed Christopher crashing his helicopter.
Only he would have the ability tomit such a heinous crime.
Could Christopher already have chased him all the way out here?
While Gerald now had the power of the Dawnbreaker, he knew that he was still far from being able to
deal with someone like Christopher.

Regardless, what an utter b*stard! To think that that old man wanted to capture him so much!
“…Are you alright, Mr. Xadrian…? Could you perhaps know these people…?” asked Professor Yale the
moment he saw how serious Gerald’s expression was.
“…I do,” replied Gerald with a nod.
“I see… It’s such a pity that they had to die in an aerial ident like this…” said the professor as he
sighed.
“Oh, it wasn’t a mere ident. They were murdered!” dered Gerald as he stood up.
The moment the others heard that, the other members of the group began panicking.
“M-murdered…? Who could’ve been so powerful to do such a thing…?” asked one of the tourists.
“I’m afraid that I won’t be able to summarize the entire situation in a sentence or two. Regardless, the
murderer is after me. Because of that, I believe it would be wisest for us to split paths from now on.
Professor Yale, until you leave the desert, you have to make sure that everyone is careful in everything
they do!” replied Gerald with a solemn look on his face.
From what Gerald had learned from Christopher’s character, the old man wouldn’t allow anyone to
remain alive as long as they got in the way of him and Gerald. With so many people within that group,
Gerald really didn’t want to be the reason all of them came to any harm. This was especially so for
Giya.
Upon hearing that, Meredith’s eyes grew slightly red as she asked, “Are… are you leaving now,
Xadrian…? You’re not traveling with us anymore…?”
“Yes, I have to… Following me will only result in all of you getting hurt!” replied Gerald.
At that moment, he thought of something. Retrieving the map of the desert from his pocket, he used his
secret inner power and concentrated hard on the image of the eternal coffin. Somehow, he managed to
erase the location of the eternal coffin right off the map! Following that, he seemed to ponder for a bit
before walking over to Giya—who had been staring at him this entire time—with the map in hand.
“…Here, take this map. Use it if you wish to thoroughly research this desert. I’m sure it’ll be a great help
to both of you in terms of work. If needed, it’ll also help you get your bearings and help all of you leave
this ce!” said Gerald as he looked straight into her eyes while handing the map out to her.
Giya herself was slightly stunned, but not because of what he had just said. Rather, it was because the
way he was currently looking at her truly felt reminiscent of how Gerald usually did.
“You’re a fine girl, so always protect yourself until you find a suitable man to protect you. I recall you
saying that I look a lot like this Gerald person… After listening to what you had to say about him, I
believe that Gerald feels the same way as you do. Regardless, I hope you’ll live a happy and blessed
life,” added Gerald as he gently ced the map in her hand.
As Giya’s breathing grew rapid, Gerald turned to look at Meredith and after giving her a nod, he turned
around before saying, “Well, it’s time to go our separate ways then, everyone! Take care!”
With that, he began walking off, leaving them behind.
