Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 932
Gerald nodded as he said that.
ââ¦Oh god. Itâs best that we didnât go in any further, brother! From what Iâve heard, the mosquitoes donât even leave any traces of their victimâs skin left! We might as well just get shot by bullets than have to endure through poisonous mosquito attacks!â said the fat man, terrified.
âYou shouldâve thought about that while you were running toward me earlier. Doesnât the fact that you did that already implicate that you didnât mind me dying together with you in the first place?â replied Gerald as he smiled wryly.
The fat man, however, barely even registered any guilt since he was much too terrified of where he was currently at.
Gerald himself was calculating the chance of him surviving if he tried to go against those men. In the end, he was certain that the men would simply release fire from a distance the moment they saw him.
Hiding could still be possible at that point, but heâd still end up getting hurt! There just wasnât any silver linings in confronting the men now.
With that conclusion in mind, Gerald couldnât help but laugh slightly bitterly before saying, âCome on, follow me. Thereâs a cave within this valley which we can hide in for the moment! Since sheâs already lost too much blood at this point, the girl desperately needs some rest or her life will be in danger soon!â
âS-seriously?â asked the fat man in surprise.
Shaking his head, Gerald continued taking the lead until eventually, all three of them arrived at the cave Gerald had mentioned.
There seemed to be considerably less mosquitoes around this area as well.
âWhat a miracle! To think there was a spot within this death zone that those mosquitoes wouldnât gather around!â said the fat man as he gently placed the now unconscious girl on the ground.
âSee those green plants out there? The mosquitoes are naturally repelled by their scent! With there being so many of that plant right outside the cave, the mosquitoes definitely wonât be attacking us any time soon as long as we stay in here!â
With Geraldâs immense knowledge of medicinal plants, it was no wonder why he knew the plantsâ
properties.
As Gerald began checking on the unconscious girlâs injuries, he soon heard her ask, ââ¦Who⦠exactly are you, brotherâ¦? How do you know so muchâ¦?â
When he turned to look at her face, she was frowning as she asked the question.
âMy identity isnât important. Regardless, if these wounds donât get treated soon, youâll be dead within a few hours! What happened to both of you anyway? Why were those men hunting you down?â
Recalling what she had said to the five burly men before murdering them, Gerald remembered her saying that she wanted to assassinate someone. From her current condition, it was clear as day that her mission had failed.
âThatâs right! If Iâd had known that you were going to do such a thing, then I wouldnât have followed you, even if you threatened to beat me to death! Youâre really got me in deep trouble this time!â said the young man in a bitter tone.
âHaha! Well, since we wonât be living for much longer anyway, I guess it wouldnât hurt to tell you guys this! See, my plan was to assassinate a boss at the border of the Salford Province! After all, that b*stard cheated and killed my friends! Since I was able to escape, Iâve been planning my revenge since then!â explained the girl.
âI see. If I may, it seems that you have the background of a martial artist. Did you receive any special training for fighting and assassination as a child?â asked Gerald as he tore some gauze to bandage up her wound.
Upon hearing his question, she instantly began seeing Gerald in a new light.
As she continued staring at him, the fat man broke the silence by anxiously asking, âHey, hey! Your grievances with those men isnât whatâs important now! You said that we werenât going to be living for much longer right? What exactly did you mean by that?â
âHaha! Well, knowing Hanselâs way of doing things, it wouldnât surprise me if his men have already surrounded all the exits to this valley by now. Even if we donât die to the mosquitoes here, the only other option is to starve to death! Still, I guess I neednât be lonely in death since the two of you will be joining me!â replied the girl.
âW-whatâ¦? You⦠Youâre evil! Pure evil! So we only exist here to cushion your blow?!â said the fat man as his eyes widened in shock and fear.
âTo think that you still have the energy to scare him even with that serious injury. Hahaha⦠Well, since we truly are going to die here together, then we may as well die as romantic ghosts! After all, Iâm sure fatty here has never enjoyed the company of a woman before!â said Gerald as he laughed while shaking his head.
âYou⦠Donât you even dare!â growled the girl as she glared at Gerald.
Ignoring her threat, Gerald then turned to look at the fat man before saying, âSay, fatty. Head a little deeper inside and youâll find a small undercurrent creek. Get some water for me there. Iâm going to disinfect her wound!â
âR-right!â said the fat man as he nodded slightly before fumbling off with a water bottle in hand.
âAlright, while your armâs only slightly injured, the wound on your thigh is much more serious. Thatâs going to get infected extremely easily so Iâll need to suck the contaminated blood out before that happens!â said Gerald as soon as the fat man left.
âHow are you going to suck it out?â asked the girl.
âHow else? With my mouth of course! So⦠Please spare me the embarrassment and take your pants off if you want me to help youâ¦â said Gerald as he couldnât help but blush slightly.
In response, she immediately gave him a slap across his face!
âY-you asshole! Donât even think about it!â growled the girl as he face turned as red as a tomato.
