Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1824
While Rey could tell that something was off about the innkeeper, he simply couldn’t pinpoint what it was, and quite
frankly, that was driving him insane.
Shaking his head in response, Gerald then replied, “While I’m not too sure where he’s bad or not, I’m at least
certain that there’s a problem with him. After all, I saw him constantly looking around our room earlier, almost as
though he was searching for something. My guess is that he must have some secret here!”
What more, the fact that the innkeeper had told them not to leave their rooms tonight only served to make them
more suspicious of him. With that in mind, the curious duo was now keen on unraveling his true nature tonight!
“…Let’s head to Miss Zorn’s room for the moment!” said Gerald.

opposite of theirs…
“Who is it…?” asked Juno in a similar fashion to how Gerald had asked earlier. It was a clear sign that she was being
vigilant as well.
“It’s Gerald!” replied the youth as Juno opened the door a few seconds later.
Seeing that Rey was there as well, Juno was prompted to ask, “Is… something the matter…?”
“Let’s talk inside,” replied Gerald as he and Rey entered her room, only to see that Yrsa herself had been watching
television on the bed.
Once she locked the door behind them, Juno then got straight to the point as she asked, “So… What happened?”
“Essentially, both Rey and I feel that the innkeeper is a little off. With that in mind, we’d like you two to come sleep
in our room later. We’ll just leave this room empty for the night,” said Gerald.
“I’m assuming you’re trying to use our current room as bait to test the innkeeper for foul play…?” asked Juno who
was quick to catch on.
“Couldn’t have said it better myself,” replied Gerald with a firm nod.
“Well, alright then! Give us some time to wash up first then! We’ll head to your room once we’re done!” said Juno,
now fully in on the plan.
With that settled, Gerald and Rey then went back to their room first.
It was about ten minutes later when Juno and Yrsa came over as well.
While it was certainly cramped, the four of them sharing a room would certainly make things much safer. After all,
if the innkeeper truly was a despicable and lusty person, then having the two girls sleep in their own room was
definitely a terrible idea.

While it was true that Juno was a strong cultivator, none of them could say for sure that the innkeeper didn’t have
special means to deal with them.
Whatever the case was, now that all four of them were here, Gerald then said, “Alright, you girls sleep on the bed
while Rey and I sleep on the table. In case you’re worrying about a midnight attack, Rey and I will be taking turns
keeping watch the entire night. If anything happens, we’ll surely alert you girls!”
After saying that, Gerald and Rey then sat on the table.
Juno and Yrsa themselves got into bed and promptly fell asleep… This was going to be a long night for the boys…
Fast forward to a few hours later, it was late into the night, and not a single sound could be heard… It was honestly
a bit scary.
Even so, the silence was what eventually gave away the tapping of approaching footsteps that stopped right before
their door…
Staring at their room door, Gerald and Rey were now fully vigilant…
