Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1844
The city was known as Phantom City, and it was a city that was made specifically for ghosts and spirits.
From where they stood, Gerald and Rey could see that everything in the city looked ancient… The duo was also able
to see several ghostly peddlers—that varied in appearance—scattered all over what appeared to be a market in the
city.
Understanding that most of the spirit world was going to look like this, the duo decided to make haste and began
walking toward the city’s entrance…
However, upon reaching the city’s gates, their entry was promptly blocked by a pale-faced man donning a long
black robe.

“Before that… Who exactly are you…?” asked Gerald.
“I go by Phanto, and I’m the phantom officer of this place!” introduced Phanto, much to the surprise of Gerald and
Rey.
To think that phantom officers existed in the first place! It was almost like they were in some television drama or
something!
After a slight pause, Gerald smiled faintly before replying, “We’re only passing through this place, and we aren’t
here to cause trouble, sir. With that in mind, please allow us to pass!”
Since this wasn’t his usual territory, Gerald knew that he had to refrain from acting rashly. At the very least, he
needed to remain polite.
However, if a similar scene had happened in the real world, Gerald would’ve already made a move on whoever
dared to obstruct his way. As if he would have the time to waste with politeness!
“Look, I need a passing permit to allow you to enter! If you don’t have any, don’t even dream about entering!”
replied Phanto in a stern voice.
“A passing permit? How do we obtain one?” asked Gerald.
Hearing that, Phanto then pointed at a tall tower emitting dark blue lights—that honestly wasn’t all that far away—
before explaining, “You can get it by passing a test there. Once you’ve got that done, you’ll receive your passing
permit!”
“Thank you for sharing!” replied Gerald as he began walking toward the tower with Rey.
As it turned out, entering the most feminine places really wasn’t going to be as easy as they had anticipated. Since
Gerald couldn’t think of any other way to enter and he would very much prefer to resolve this issue without using
force, the only way forward was to pass that test… At the very least he wouldn’t end up offending any of the locals.

Regardless, they soon found that the tall tower’s gates had been tightly locked. Even so, they knew that there were
individuals inside since the interior constantly glowed in that familiar blue hue…
With that in mind, Gerald was just about to knock on the door when suddenly, it swung open!
Before Gerald could even react, a cold and gloomy-sounding voice could be heard coming from inside, shouting,
“Enter!”
Hearing that, Gerald was first to enter. However, just as Rey was about to follow, the gates suddenly slammed shut
behind Gerald!
“…H-huh? What’s happening, Mr. Crawford…?” asked the astonished Rey.
“One individual at a time!” yelled the same voice from before.
Understanding that this was simply a rule to this place, the disheartened Rey could only sit on one of the tower’s
many steps as he waited for Gerald to return…
