Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1458
“What is it?”
“Grandpa says he’s found an important clue!”
“…Oh?” said Gerald as he opened his eyes. Knowing that this had to be something related to Master Ghost, Gerald
then walked out.
When Terrance saw him walking over, he instantly said, “Please have a look at these photographs that my
subordinates were able to capture, Master Crawford!”
Taking the photographs from Terrance’s extended hand, Gerald saw that one of them contained an expensive-
looking glass cabinet. Squinting his eyes, he was able to discern a rather familiar-looking horsetail whisk lying inside
it…
There was no doubt about it. That horsetail whisk definitely belonged to Master Ghost!
Zenny apparently noticed the glimmer of hope in Gerald’s eyes, prompting her to say, “It’s something that belongs
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto master!”
“After you showed us Master Ghost’s photographs, a few of my subordinates noticed that the horsetail whisk that
they found was a mirror image of the one that Master Ghost usually holds onto in most of the photographs you
showed us! It’s the reason why they took that photo in the first place!” explained Terrance.
“As for where my subordinates found it, well… It appeared at the biggest auction in the Jenna Province! It’s a pretty
grand event! Regardless, since you said that something bad could have happened to Master Ghost, I find myself
wondering if he had to sell his horsetail whisk here due to difficulties in surviving…” added the old man.
In response, Gerald simply shook his head before replying, “If it was money he wanted, then he could’ve just used
any one of his arsenal of capabilities to earn what he needed. I truly believe that he wouldn’t have fallen to such a
pitiful state that he had to sell his horsetail whisk for money! Regardless, let’s head to the auction to have a look
first. The best course of action right now would be to gain information on the person who had provided the item
itself. I’m sure that will lead to us finding an important clue!”
“Very well, I’ll arrange for it immediately! Just so you know, the auction takes place tonight, and many powerful
people from all over the country will be attending. With that in mind, I truly think that this will be your best bet to
look for clues regarding Master Ghost!” replied Terrance.
While waiting for the event to begin, Gerald couldn’t help but feel slightly ill at ease… After all, he remembered that
Zenny had said that Master Ghost had foreseen that he would face a great disaster within the Jenna Province. Since
his horsetail whisk was being auctioned, could that signify that something had already happened to him…?
Night soon fell and the group instantly headed over to the auction venue.
Just as Gerald was about to enter the venue, he suddenly heard a voice saying, “My, my! What a surprise! If it isn’t
Mr. Sherwin! It’s been ages since you’ve last made an appearance for such an occasion within the Jenna Province!
Could it be that the Sherwins have finally taken a turn for the better? I’d assume so since you’re partaking in the
auction’s liveliness so leisurely!
Turning around, Gerald saw that the voice had come from a white-suited rich heir who had just gotten out of one of
the many luxurious-looking cars that had just come to a halt before the venue’s entrance.
While the arrival of so many luxury cars certainly caused quite a stir among those who witnessed them, the heir
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhimself looked more interested in Terrance as he stared at the old man.
Observing the rich heir, Gerald noticed that aside from a pair of bodyguards standing behind him, there was also a
black-robed person—covered from head to toe—standing by the heir’s side who gave off a peculiar vibe…
Gerald wasn’t sure whether it had anything to do with the fact that he had heard quite a bit of things about black-
robed men recently, but he found his eyelids twitching slightly as he glanced a few more times at the old man.
Surprisingly, Gerald noticed that there was moving essential qi within that person’s body.
‘Could he be someone who had trained himself to achieve spiritual enlightenment…?’ Gerald thought to himself,
bewildered.
The more surprising thing to Gerald, however, was the fact that the impressive person—who had managed to attain
spiritual enlightenment—was actually willing to be another person’s lackey!
While Gerald was wondering how that person was able to just reconcile with that fact, Terrance, on the other hand,
now had reddened eyes as he stared back at the rich, young man.
“F-Federico Dun…!” growled Terrance in great fury. However, the second he saw the old man standing before the
youth, Terrance instantly retracted in fear.
“G-Grandpa…!” cried out Perla as she ran over to stand beside him before glaring at Federico.
Before she could do anything, however, Terrance quickly held onto his granddaughter’s wrist, a clear indication for
her not to act impulsively.
