?Chapter 695: Chapter 692: Everything Witnessed by the Keeper of Secrets Chapter 695: Chapter 692: Everything Witnessed by the Keeper of Secrets Ted Riel sat swaddled in a thick blanket inside the research station’s cabin. When someone handed him a cup of hot tea that was still a little scalding, he clutched the cup and looked up to say thanks, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome!” Alice replied earnestly before starting to curiously size up this “Confidant” who’d just been fished out of the sea. After a good while, she turned to Duncan beside her and said, “Captain, Mr. Riel doesn’t seem to be in a very good mood!”
