Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2158
With night swiftly approaching sometime later, Gerald and Master Ghost quickly began making their way to where
Ichiro and the others were.
As for the members of the investigation team, after investigating throughout the day while constantly being urged
by Ichiro, they managed to scan through at least half of the surrounding hotels and guesthouses. Aside from being
registered, any foreigner living in those places were temporarily detained under the Japanese military, and were
currently being guarded by Japanese soldiers…
Regardless, as the duo continued making their way to where Ichiro was, Gerald made sure to detail what he had
encountered in the past two days to Master Ghost. After listening to all that, Master Ghost couldn’t help but say, “It
honestly surprises me that the investigation team would obey your orders like this…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTo Master Ghost, Gerald should’ve been the prime suspect of Adler’s disappearance. Even so, he was
simultaneously glad that the investigation team hadn’t been monitoring Gerald too closely. After all, it allowed
Gerald to actually join their team! What more, Ichiro sounded like he really trusted Gerald.
“Truth be told, I wasn’t expecting things to go this smoothly either, though I’m not complaining. Regardless, since
I’m making my move under the guise of an investigation team member, the Crawford cultivator will surely not
anticipate the presence of
Another cultivator. With that in mind, once I gain sufficient knowledge about him, it’ll be easy for me to take him
out,” replied Gerald with a nod as he continued walking forward.
Shortly after they left the training ground, the two of them were greeted by the sight of several investigation team
members and nearly endless Japanese soldiers on both sides of the street, all of them vigilantly guarding the
entrances of all hotels and guesthouses in the vicinity.
Though several drivers immediately turned to leave the area upon seeing all this, there were still quite a number of
spectators. These people lived around the training ground, and they were well aware that it was a rare occasion for
the military to get this riled up. With that in mind, it was only natural for them to start discussing what was
happening among themselves.
Either way, upon noticing Gerald’s presence, Ichiro immediately dropped whatever he was doing and jogged over
to the youth while shouting, “Gerald! Over here!”
Since Gerald had agreed to help him, Ichiro treated him like a friend now, which explained why he dropped the
formalities when addressing Gerald.
Smiling in response, Gerald was prompted to ask, “How are things going, Mr. Noda?”
“Things are going well. We’ve temporarily detained all the foreigners living in the vicinity, and they’re currently
being guarded by soldiers. Though you told me not to, I also registered all the locals in the area, just in case.
Regardless, we’ve found a few suspicious people throughout our investigation, and I’d like you to have a look at
them,” replied Ichiro with a grin, clearly expecting the case to be cracked soon.

Ichiro, for one, had a hunch that the culprit was among the people whom he deemed were suspicious. From what
he could guess, the person had probably remained here since he still wanted to murder more of Yanam’s soldiers.
“That’s great to hear. Do lead the way,” said Gerald as he turned to look at Master Ghost with a smile.
Following that, the spectators watched as the duo followed Ichiro into one of the hotels…
After walking past the soldiers guarding the hotel’s entrance, Gerald was greeted by the sight of several hotel staff
members gathered at the lobby. Though there were soldiers in here as well each armed with a gun, Gerald was
more interested in the six people seated on the couch.
Watching as Ichiro pointed at them, Ichiro himself then said, “Those are the suspects, Gerald. Though you told me
that the culprit was probably an expert at disguising himself, I went ahead and gathered people who looked similar
to the individual captured on the surveillance system. I don’t plan to let them go till you have a good look at them.”
The second Gerald’s name was mentioned, one of the men seated on the sofa who was wearing a Windbreaker
slowly lifted his head. Upon seeing Gerald, he couldn’t help but frown.
The man himself was none other than Amare, the Crawford cultivator…!
