    Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2062


    As Gerald and Takuya continued drinking their tea, the Hanyus were already hard at work back at their


    headquarters. After all, despite investigating throughout the night, none of them were able to find any


    relevant clues.


    Regardless, two men could be seen standing in the Hanyu headquarters’ hall, their heads lowered.


    One of them went by Hanyu Saburo, and he was the one who had attacked Fujiko the other night. As


    for the other man, he was a core disciple of the Hanyu family—who had been sent out to investigate


    the night before—called Hanyu Ryugu…


    Seated on the main seat before them was Hanyu Suijin, the head of the Hanyu family. Though he had


    yet to hear what they had to report, he could already guess what their findings would be since he hadn’t


    received any news from them up till this point. Still, he was prompted to ask, “So, what’s the situation


    like?”


    “Well… I headed there immediately after Saburo notified me about all this. Unfortunately, though we


    searched the entire hotel and also the area around it, we weren’t able to find any traces of them at all…


    I’m assuming they must have left by now…” replied Ryugu as he fought the urge to tremble in fear.


    “Rubbish!” roared Suijin as he mmed his fist onto the table. ‘WW-with all due respect, master, that


    person from Weston is extremely powerful! Just so you know, he sent me flying with barely any effort!


    Regardless, while investigating, we found that two individuals from Weston had checked into the


    hotel… Unfortunately, neither of them seems to be the one who had beat me up,” muttered Saburo.


    “Seem? Didn’t you get a good look at his face?” replied Suijin.


    “Unfortunately, it was a little too dark when he showed himself… I do, however, remember what he


    sounds like. With that said, I’d definitely recognize him by voice!” dered Saburo as he shook his


    head.


    “Like that’s going to change anything! Whatever the case is, we’ve already spent three long years


    nning for this…! As long as we get our hands on Fujiko, we’ll surely be able to get the Futabas to


    be affiliated with us! Still, to think that we’d fail when we were so close to seeding! Not only


    have we lost our best opportunity to strike, but our operation will definitely face even more issues now


    since the Futabas will undoubtedly be on guard! Hell, they may even try looking for trouble with us


    because of all this!” growled Suijin, getting increasingly angry the more he spoke. By the end of it, the


    tip of his armrest—that he had been grabbing onto this entire time—ended up crumbling to pieces due


    to how hard his grip had be…!


    Hearing that, Saburo and Ryugu went silent. While it was true that their mission had only failed


    because of Gerald’s intervention, a failure was a failure. With that in mind, both of them knew that in


    the end, they would still be held responsible for all this.


    Understanding that, Ryugu—who didn’t want Saburo to drag him into this—thought for a while before


    saying, “…Umm… Maybe it would help if we issued an order all over Japan to locate this person…? I,


    for one, feel that there’s a pretty good chance that we’ll seed if we go with that. After all, he’s


    incredibly strong and he’s a non-native as well…”


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    “I already did that before you two returned! Who do you think I am? Regardless, just… go get some


    rest first… I’ll tell you when we need to make a move again. Also, remember to keep an eye on the


    Futabas whenever possible. Our best bet now would be to send some of our men over to find out who


    that Westoner truly is to the Futabas!” grumbled Suijin as he waved a hand wearily.


    Nodding in response, the duo then turned to leave…


    Fast forward to two dayster, Gerald was still staying with the Futabas. Though Takuya had made it a


    point to update Gerald on thetest news he received on a daily basis, Gerald wasn’t really interested


    in all that. After all, he was more concerned about how he was going to bring up the topic of the


    Seadom tribe with them.


    Regardless, while eating together with the Takuyas that afternoon, Gerald couldn’t help but look at


    Fujiko’s pendant again…
