Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1260
Following that, Jace began describing the symptoms. By the time he was done, Gerald could feel his
heart skip a beat.
‘…What? These… These symptoms… They’re definitely not symptoms of some kind of flu! These are
the exact symptoms I had faced when I was suffering from the effects of Soul Eater! Symptoms that
caused part of my blood and oxygen to be devoured! Rather than a disease, it’s an evil technique!’
Soul Eater was an evil technique that he had learned from the memories that had been imnted into
him. He knew it quite well since he had been forced to use it a while back to escape. There just weren’t
any other better alternatives at the time.
‘Still, why are there so many children suffering from the effects of Soul Eater out of the blue? Could
someone else out there know about the technique…?’ Gerald thought to himself, perplexed.
However, he knew that now wasn’t the time to dwell on that. He should instead head over to the
children first to see whether they truly were suffering from the effects of Soul Eater.
“…There isn’t any time to lose! I’ll go with you!” said Gerald quickly.
“That’s wonderful to hear, Mr. Crawford! You know, the dean and several others are having a research
meeting at the moment. Let’s head there first to see if they’ve discovered any new symptoms! Once
we’ve done that, I’ll lead you to the istion rooms!” replied Jace.
Soon enough, Gerald arrived at the hospital with Jace and his two apprentices.
Upon entering the hospital’s lobby, several parents could already be seen crying there. Of course, any
parent would cry if such an incident befell their child.
Walking past them, the four people then quickly made their way into the conference room.
Since Jace already had quite a prestigious status, nobody even questioned about the people he had
brought along with him into the room. Instead, they simply chose to stand up and greet the doctor.
Gerald himself quickly seated himself before looking at what was being disyed on the big screen in
front of the conference room.
‘In the past three days, over a hundred babies have been sent to us, and all of them are currently in
danger of losing their lives. ording to the records in the case book, all of the babies are
experiencing both vomiting and different degrees of pulmonary infections. Thetter has a real danger
of causing extensive body organ failure. We still don’t fully grasp what the cause of all this is, but from
the hospital’s investigation efforts, it’s safe to assume that the symptoms are caused by the invasion of
a new kind of virus.’
The next thing that was disyed was the state of the babies who had gotten sick due to the ‘virus’.
After that, a beautiful—yet worried-looking—anchor woman’s face was shown on the screen, and she
turned to look at the tall hospital building before her before saying, “The hospital has established an
emergency rescue team consisting of several famous medical experts! We can only hope that they’ll be
able toe up with some miraculous treatment that’ll help save the hundred over delicate lives that
are still suffering now! We hope that you’ll pray for the full recovery of the children as well, dear
audience!”
Following, that, Zane Lowe—the dean of Mayberry First Hospital—signaled for the screen to be turned
off before saying, “I’m sure you’re all well aware of how serious the current condition that we’re facing
is. If we fail to save the children, then this incident will surely end up bing an ugly stain in the
history of medicine. With so many great minds present today, failure to save the babies will also lead to
a massive medical ident scandal! By then, the credibility of the hospital will be near non-existent!”
“Everyone here today is an expert in this field, many of whom havee from affiliated hospitals and
even hospitals that aren’t rted to us! I hope you all understand that in the face of danger, all of you
bear the burden of the expectations from the government and also the people. Regardless, I’m not
going to be spouting anymore nonsense. Let’s begin discussing how we’re going to save the lives of all
these children. ”
“Until the results of the bacterial culture are out, we won’t even be able toe up with a solution. We
need to suit the remedy to the case, you know? We can’t just randomly prescribe medicine for the
illness when we aren’t evenpletely sure of what it is yet!” said a bespectacled middle-aged doctor
in a bitter tone.
Many of the doctors present were feeling that it was deeply unfortunate that they had been transferred
over to do such a terrible task.
While they were all well aware that seeding in curing the children would most definitely bring them
both profit and fame—even allowing them to gain the chance to enjoy massive publicity, praises, and
rewards from their respective hospitals—they also knew that failure would lead to the ruin of any
possible future prospects.

There were over a hundred children, and just thinking about the responsibility they needed to bear if
they messed up sent shivers down their spines.
“…After checking their pulse, it seems that they’ve been inflicted with a pulmonary infection. While
we’ve already tried using all sorts of antiviral medicine, no improvements have been noted,” said an old
Chinese medicine practitioner next.
Silence ensued in the conference room for a while after that.
Everyone knew that there were now two options, one being Western medicine and the other being
Chinese medicine.
