Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2128
Chuckling as he scratched the back of his head, Aiden quickly replied, âAlright, alright, Iâll stopâ¦â
Shaking his head, Gerald then looked at Master Ghost before saying, âThat kid really likes to make fun of meâ
Gerald, for one, had known Aiden for the longest time, so he didnât mind joking around with him. Even when smacking the back of Aidenâs head, Gerald made sure not to use any force.
âYouâre telling me! Heâs been making fun of me the entire time in your absence, you know?â replied Master Ghost with a laugh. True enough, throughout the past ten days, he had gotten to know Aiden so well that they could now pretty much freely talk about anything.
As they continued talking, a few individuals wearing the Japanese armyâs uniform quickly began walking over to Gerald. Noticing them, Gerald saw that one of them was holding onto a document folder and the others were carrying video recording equipment.
Once they were close enough, one of the men immediately said, âPardon me, but are you Gerald Crawford? Iâm Noda Ichiro, and Iâm an investigator for the Japanese army. With that said, Iâm here to investigate the disappearance of Adler Light body that took place about eight days ago. I hope youâll cooperate with us in this investigation!â
âSure,â replied Gerald as be narrowed his eyes slightly while nodding.
âAgainâ¦? Whatâs wrong with you people? Iâve told you time and again that Adlerâs disappearance has nothing to do with us! Do you think we Westoners are pushovers or something?â grumbled Aiden as he angrily marched over.
âNot at all, sir! Still, everyone keeps saying that Adler had an argument with you before he went missing! Weâre simply investigating the best we can in hopes of finding him! With that said, if we eventually find out that none of you were involved, not only will we cease to bother you, but weâll also issue a formal apology!â replied the investigators who knew for a fact that these Westoners werenât easy to mess with.
However, since a foreign special forces agent had gone missing on their land, the army couldnât just pretend as if nothing had happened. Even if they couldnât find anything, they knew they were pretty much forced to continue investigating in order to finally be able to give a proper explanation to Yanamâ¦
âNow, now, Aiden, theyâre just asking us to cooperate with their investigation. Regardless, since we didnât do anything, I believe that these brothers of the Japanese army wonât just slander me, right?â
said Gerald as he patted Aiden on the shoulder.
Though this kid was slightly impulsive and didnât always think before he spoke, he could tell that Aiden was sincerely worried for him. He was a rare, good friendâ¦
Hearing that, Ichiro quickly nodded before adding, âHeâs right! Weâre just investigating in accordance with our procedures. Vifith that said, please have a cigarette a s we head to the interrogation room for a while, Mr. Crawford.â
âLead the way,â replied Gerald as he accepted the cigarette before lighting it.
After watching Gerald leave with the investigators, Aiden leaned closer to Master Ghost before asking, â⦠Do you think anything bad is going to happen to brother Geraldâ¦?â
âPlease, youâre severely underestimating him! Forget these investigators, even if the entire Japanese army comes at him, he wonât be afraid in the slightest! Now spend less time worrying about him and start focusing on getting a better rank for Weston!â replied Master Ghost in a cheerful tone.
