Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 1372

Serena smiled faintly, allowing the old man to look at her and find fragments of his memories of her grandmother. She didn't rush him.

Once Dr. Grant finally managed to compose himself, Serena asked, "You were imprisoned in that underground facility for five or six years. During that time, did you ever hear these terms: Whitecliffe Harbor, Project Zero-Transit, or The Raven?"

Given the desperate assassination attempt, she knew Dr. Grant held information that terrified the Obsidian Sun. He might just hold the key to deciphering the cryptic warning left by Special Envoy Mordecai.

At the mention of those three names, Dr. Grant's pupils violently contracted.

His frail fingers gripped the bedsheets as if he had just recalled a living nightmare.

"I've heard them," he rasped, his voice trembling. "During my years in the facility, the Special Envoy overseeing our sector would occasionally communicate with The Overlord in the adjacent secure room. I heard them mention those names."

Serena's eyes darkened. "Do you know what they mean?"

Dr. Grant took a shuddering breath, his face pale and grave. "Project Zero-Transit... It isn't a shipping route or a logistics network. It's a ship. The Ghost Ship of the High Seas. It has no registered nationality, no fixed coordinates, and it answers to no government. The Obsidian Sun uses it to transport their most critical research, biological samples, and human specimens."

As Dr. Grant spoke, the scattered puzzle pieces in Serena's mind finally clicked together into a terrifyingly clear picture.

The ghost ship hiding in international waters was one of the Obsidian Sun's true, mobile headquarters.

Serena lowered her eyes, a lethal smirk curving her lips. "Perfect. Then we start by sinking that ship."

She stood up and looked warmly at the old man. "Dr. Grant, the information you just gave us is the breakthrough we needed to destroy them. Rest now. Recover your strength. I'm leaving Jerrick's operatives to guard you. No one gets within ten feet of this room without my direct authorization."
