Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2043
After hearing what Gerald had to say, Aiden’s expression momentarily stiffened before he replied,
“But… we don’t even know which area of Japan they’re in! Aren’t we essentially just on a wild goose
chase?”
“Unfortunately, we are,” replied Gerald with a sigh.
“Regardless, there’s really no rush. I’m sure we’ll find the Seadom tribe sooner orter,” said Master
Ghost. “Indeed. Speaking of which, what’s up with that special forcespetition of yours? Let’s start
investigating from there. It’s better than staying cooped up in this room anyway,” asked Gerald as he
looked at Aiden.
“Well, ording to my force’s leader, it’s really just an ordinarypetition that selects the most
powerful people from each country’s special forces to eventuallypete in Japan. While it’s not a
standardpetition, there’s honestly not much honor to be gained by participating. Still, itis an
internationalpetition, so emphasis still needs to be ced on it,” exined Aiden.
“I see… Well, it wouldn’t hurt to go have a look at it, right?” replied Gerald.
“We may as well since we don’t really know where to start looking anyway. Still, since it’s being held in
Japan, I’m sure most of the participants will be influential and powerful… With that in mind, we could
possibly gain more clues about the Seadom tribe from them,” added Master Ghost.

“Then it’s settled, I suppose! ’ll go contact the organizer!” said Aiden as he fished his phone out to
make a call.
Though the call itself was short, Aiden sessfully got the organizer to send a car over—to their hotel
—to pick them up. The organizer didn’t seem to mind Gerald and Master Ghosting along either.
Either way, it was about half an hourter when a few men from the Japanese military came over to
pick them up. After checking out, the trio then headed to thepetition’s venue…
Thepetition itself wasn’t being held in the Japanese military’s headquarters, but instead, on a
training ground. Regardless, upon arriving, the trio saw that several of the houses were constructed
withposite boards, a clear sign that they were temporary structures for the special forces to live in.
Aside from that, it was also noteworthy that many people were already there. As it turned out, though
thepetition was still half a month away, many of the participants had arrived in advance to practice
and get themselves used to the environment in hopes that it would contribute to getting them the win.
After all, who wouldn’t want to do their countries proud?
Regardless, the person in charge eventually stopped before one of the houses. Getting out of the car,
he then pointed at the house while handing Aiden a key before saying, “That’s the ce. Since you’re
the special forces from Weston, you’ll be staying here for now.”
Upon receiving the key, Aiden couldn’t help but widen his eyes. After all, if it wasn’t for the fact that he
had been told that this was the Japanese soldiers’ training grounds, he would’ve surely assumed that
the entire area was just a construction zone! With how shabby the houses looked, it almost felt like they
would topple the second strong winds blew!
With that in mind, once the person in charge left the scene, Aiden turned to look at Gerald before
apologetically saying, “…Had I known the living conditions would be this poor here, we should’ve just
remained in the hotel…”
“Well, since we’re here anyway, let’s just take it easy. Besides, living here for half a month won’t kill us,”
replied Gerald as he took the key from Aiden and opened the door…
Though the house was only meant to be lived in temporarily, it was by no means small. In total, there
was a living room, three bedrooms, a washroom, and a dining room…
Either way, once they were done unpacking, Gerald looked out the window to see what the situation
was like outside…
Shortly after, Aiden entered Gerald’s room before saying, “It’s almost noon, Gerald. Are you hungry?
I’m about to ask for some food, myself!”
“Go ahead,” replied Gerald with a subtle smile.
Once Aiden left, Gerald fished out the sea map from his pocket… As expected, Yearning Ind had
disappeared from the map… Aside from that, the ind where the Seadom Tribe held their sacrificial
ritual was nowhere to be seen as well…
