Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2156
By the time the others were done, Gerald had just finished his roasted chicken.
Watching as Gerald wiped his hands, Ichiro handed two tissues to the youth before asking, “So… Figured anything
out?”
“Hardly. To be completely frank, the information was near useless, so I wasn’t really paying attention. Though I have
to say, the roasted chicken is pretty good, so you guys should eat it while it’s hot,” replied Gerald as he wiped his
mouth.
“You…! ” growled the other investigators, clearly annoyed that Gerald was just dissing on all their hard work. What
a waste of breath!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What’s wrong?” asked Ichiro.
“Don’t worry, it’s nothing major. Regardless, you guys should start investigating the hotels around the training
ground. I advise you to register every non Japanese staying in the vicinity! Believe me when I say that that’s the
only information that’s going to be useful for now!” replied Gerald as he waved his hand.
“Do you honestly think that we haven’t already investigated the surrounding area? Also, all the foreigners? Do you
think registering all of them and putting them on file is going to be a cinch or something? You’re not even a proper
member of the investigation team! What would you know about our work and authority?” retorted several of the
other members.
“Just do as he says. Remember, the colonel has given him permission to be on our team, so the colonel and I will be
bearing all the consequences. With that said, if you disagree with Gerald, you can either take this to the colonel’s
office or leave!” growled Ichiro as he slammed his fist onto the table.
Hearing that, everyone became so frightened that they instantly fell silent. While Ichiro was usually an amiable
person, everyone in the investigation team knew that Ichiro was the kind of person who didn’t make any exceptions
to who he grew angry at, not even his family. In fact, he had such a bad temper in his earlier years that he was
known for driving several people out!
With that in mind, the rest of the investigation team could only yell, “Loud and clear!”
Knowing that they could only obey Gerald’s orders for now, the group of people quickly tidied up their documents
before walking out of the office…
Gerald himself simply shook his head before saying, “It’s such a pity that they didn’t eat their roasted chickens…”
Watching as Gerald took the remaining chicken and began feasting once more, Ichiro waited for his secretary to
close the door before looking at Gerald and asking, “Truth be told, I’m finding it hard to see the logic of your
order… After all, we’ve already scanned through all the hotels in the vicinity multiple times. While it’s true that
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthere are multiple foreigners, none of them look like the murderer at all…”
“Tell me again what that murderer’ s physique was like. And did he leave behind any footprints?” asked Gerald as
he looked back at Ichiro.
“From what we’ve gathered, the person is around six feet tall and has a rather sturdy looking figure. Aside from
that, his footprints were size twelve… As I’ve previously said, we found nobody who matched the description, which
is why we assume that the culprit has left the area,” explained Ichiro.
“Just a thought, but couldn’t the culprit have worn platform shoes? Also, it’s easy to look sturdy if you have piles of
clothes on. As for the shoe size, couldn’t the murderer just have worn larger shoes?” asked Gerald in between
chews.
“… That…” muttered the stupefied Ichiro as his voice momentarily trailed off…
