The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1928
As Gerald had guessed, Harold was calling to have a mystery solvedâ¦
However, knowing that the dangerous Tye was probably already somewhere within the city, Gerald wasnât about to prioritize anything else. Besides, it wasnât as if he needed to help Harold every time he was asked to solve a mystery.
With that in mind, Gerald simply replied, âUnfortunately, Mr. Lee, Iâm currently not available⦠There are some things I still need to take care ofâ¦â
âI see⦠But hear me out first, Mr. Crawford! Thereâs been a murder at the Sun Group building and the victim, a security guard of the company, ended up being sucked dry! This description may be a bit poetic, but it almost seems like his soul had been sucked out!â explained Harold.
âCome again? The Sun Group? A dried-up corpse?!â exclaimed Gerald, instantly recalling that Tye now had the power to drain human souls and energy. To top it all off, the murder had happened in the Sun Group building! The culprit was definitely Tye!
âIndeed, Mr. Crawford! So please, could you-â
ââm coming over!â replied Gerald before Harold could even finish his sentence.
Immediately hanging up before Harold could say anything else, Gerald then turned to face Master Snyder while saying, âIâll be leave-â However, Master Snyder was no longer there! Then again, it wasnât as though Gerald hadnât expected that. The man simply enjoyed disappearing and reappearing whenever he likedâ¦
Whatever the case was, Gerald then bowed slightly before respectfully declaring, âThank you for the advice, Master Snyder! Iâll be taking my leave now.â
The second Geraldâs sentence ended, the door slowly creaked open, signifying that Master Snyder had heard the comment.
Nodding in response, Gerald then left the house before speeding offâ¦
It was only when Gerald began driving off when Master Snyder reappeared at his bedroom window.
Staring at the car as it quickly disappeared in the distance, Master Snyder then sighed heavily as he muttered, âThis is all part of the process for you to become an outstanding cultivator, Geraldâ¦!â
With that said, Master Snyder then vanished againâ¦
Fast forward to ten minutes later, Geraldâs car came to a screeching halt before the Sun Group building. It was honestly his first time coming here, and he hadnât anticipated the building to be so large up-close.
Regardless, he quickly snapped out of his awe and began walking past all the carsâowned by the Great Councilâs membersâbefore going over the cordon tape that surrounded the buildingâ¦
After entering and asking a few inspectors where Harold was, he was directed to the sixteenth floor, the floor where Tyeâs office was.
With that in mind, Gerald quickly made his way there⦠Upon entering the office, Gerald saw that Harold and his subordinates were already busy investigating the area while also discussing what they had found.
âMr. Lee!â called out Gerald as he began walking toward the man.
The second he saw Gerald, Harold looked like he had just come across his savior. After all, when it came to the supernatural, Harold knew that he could rely on Geraldâ¦
