Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2107
Once Ryugu calmed down a bit, Takeshi gulped before replying, “… Do… you think the Futabas have
other powerful men…?”
“… Negative. Even if there were powerful people within their family, our two assassins should’ve still
been able to report back. Besides, we’ve already done a thorough background check on their family
before we attempted to assassinate Fujiko. With that in mind, we know that there are only a few trained
fighters in their family, though none of them should be able to handle Endo and Izumi,” said Ryugu as
he shook his head.
Though he said that, he knew that there was a high possibility that the two were already dead.
However, that posed a question. Where the hell had the Futabas suddenly found such powerful men?
No matter how much Ryugu racked his brain, he simply couldn’t figure it out.
“Indeed… How truly odd… With how strong Endo and Izumi are, this mission should’ve been a cinch
for them. I wonder if there are any underlying issues involved…” muttered Takeshi.
“I can’t say for sure, but whatever the case is, we can’t ck off for even a second! I can’t just allow two
of our family’s top assassins to disappear off the grid like this! With that said, we’re forced to head to
their manor to investigate! Even if Endo and Izumi are truly dead, I have to see their corpses to believe
it!” dered Ryugu after taking in a deep breath.
The now trembling Ryugu had honestly been keeping Endo and Izumi’sck of response a secret from
most of the other Hanyus. After all, Endo and Izumi were two of the biggest powerhouses within the
family, and if the patriarch found out that something had possibly happened to them, there would surely
be hell to pay. It certainly didn’t help that it would be extremely difficult to train more of their men to get
to the duo’s level…
Whatever the case was, Takeshi then asked, “So… Should we still keep an eye on their entrance…?”
“… In the meantime, yes. I’ll be sending over another small team to take over that task in a bit. Once
they arrive, try your best to locate Endo and Izumi. If you manage to rescue them, I’ll allow you to be
the assistant team leader of the main assassination team!” replied Ryugu after a brief pause.
“G-got it!” eximed Takeshi as he immediately smiled.
“Good. Now leave. I wish to be left alone…!” grumbled Ryugu as he sat on his chair again while looking
nkly at the ceiling…
Moving back to Gerald, after having his breakfast, he went looking for Fujiko. Once he entered her
room and they greeted each other good morning, Fujiko took the chance to say, “You know, the military
just notified me that the special forcespetition is a week away. With that in mind, they wish for me
to head there.”
“I agree with them there. Seven days isn’t all that long,” replied Gerald with a nod.
“Indeed… Still, I can’t help but worry that if we leave the mansion, more assassins will trying after
your head… I really don’t wish to burden you any more than I should… Call it a gut feeling, but I believe
that the Kanagawas and the Hanyus wille after you at the same time…” muttered Fujiko as she
grabbed onto the hem of her clothes.
“Don’t worry about me. Regardless, I’ll be sure to protect you,” replied Gerald in a casual tone.
Understanding that Gerald was trying to avoid talking about her burdening him, Fujiko then said, “I
know you will, but I-“
“So, when are we heading over?” interrupted Gerald.
“… ording to the military notice, we’ll have to be there by this afternoon to register ourselves…
Once we’ve done that, they’ll tell us more about the event as well as when thepetition will be
held… Also, we won’t be allowed to leave till thepetition ends, so keep that in mind,” replied Fujiko
with a serious tone.
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s get packing and hit the road!” said Gerald without the slightest
hesitation.

Simply nodding in response, Fujiko knew that Gerald was right. She needed to focus on the
competition. After all, not only was she the youngest daughter of the Futaba family, but she also had to
live up to her title of the ‘Queen of Soldiers’. With that in mind, she definitely had to score high in the
competition…!
