Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2193
âWhat? Havenât you already entered their territory?â asked Suijin with a slight frown.
âWell, while itâs true that that old man was extremely strong, I couldnât tell whether he was a ninjaâ¦
After all, Iâve never met a ninja before so I canât really tell them apart from regular peopleâ¦â muttered Ryugu, who knew better than to assume that the old man was a ninja just because he had immense speed.
âThen investigate further into this. However, only make your move once youâve completed your investigation! Remember, the stakes are very high this time around! Also, while I wonâ t be arguing about Endo and Izumiâs case for the moment, youâd best bring them back safely or Iâll replace you from your role as leader of the assassin team with someone more capable!â growled Suijin as he glared at Ryugu.
âC-copy thatâ¦!â replied Ryugu who got so frightened that his forehead was drenched in cold sweat in no time.

Meanwhile, Kai had just awoken back at his manor. After making himself look a bit more presentable, he entered the living room before sitting on a couch and muttering, âThat Vulture claimed that he would take care of Gerald in two days⦠Itâs now the third day yet I havenâ t heard a word from him yetâ¦! â
Upon hearing that, his confidant who was standing close by couldnât help but reply, âDo you think that he couldâve⦠you know⦠ended up like Endo and Izumiâ¦?â
âCan it!â growled Kai as he glared at his new confidant. Though his previous confidant never spoke out of turn, due to that little incident, Kai had paid him a few thousand dollars to get lost. Unfortunately, that meant that Kai had to allow this idiot to be his next confidant!
âWhile you may be mad to hear it, the possibility exists⦠After all, the Hanyus remained silent the entire time till we eventually inquired with them about Gerald. If you ask me, Vultureâs behavior is strikingly similar to what they didâ¦â muttered the subordinate who was well aware that he was stepping out of line. However, not only was he a straightforward person, but he was also here to guide Kai under the patriarchâs orders. This explained his urge to reveal anything that he thought of the situation.
âI know, I know, thereâs no need for you to remind me! â growled Kai. He, for one, was no fool, and he had been worrying about this scenario ever since Vulture set off on his mission. With that in mind, it made sense why he would get annoyed when he was reminded of it.
After his subordinate went silent, Kai gestured for him to leave before fishing his phone out and dialing Vultureâs number.
However, when he couldnât contact Vulture even after three tries, Kaiâs worries began to intensify. While it was true that Kai didnât have to worry about his identity being exposed even if Vulture was taken down, it still meant that Gerald had managed to take Vulture downâ¦! If someone from the top ten assassin list couldnât take Gerald down, then what hope did Kai have to get rid of himâ¦?!
While Vultureâs death hadnât been confirmed, Kai didnât even dare to think about the implications if that really was the case. However, Kai did start regretting offending Gerald this muchâ¦!
Though Kai was in a pickle, Gerald, on the other hand, was as cool as a cucumber at the moment.
After all, ever since he revealed his relationship with the Yamashitas, all the Futabas had been fawning over him, clearly trying to get into his good booksâ¦
