Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2175
“… I see. Well, you two go ahead and rest first, then. If there’s anything you need, just tell me,” replied
Takuya, who knew that he could only await Gerald’s return if he wanted any answers.
Moving back to Gerald and Fujiko, the duo quickly got into one of the Futaba cars and began driving to
where the Yamashitas lived…
On their way there, Fujiko couldn’t help but look at Gerald as she asked, “You… really don’t know
anything about that old man…?”
To Futaba, Gerald was like a rubik’s cube. Despite the fact that he had been living in her manor and
she had known him for about a month now, she still felt that she knew very little about him…
“Fujiko, you and your family are locals and you hardly know anything about them. What makes you
think I’d know anything about the Yamashitas? To be quite frank, I’m heading there to learn more about
that old man myself,” replied Gerald as he shook his head.
“I see… Still, if we had the Yamashitas supporting us, things would definitely go much smoother…”
muttered Fujiko with a sigh. Even though she was the ‘Queen of Soldiers’, she was still much weaker
than them…
“Though things may be difficult, I’m willing to fight through it all,” replied Gerald with a nod.
Soon enough, the sky started turning dark. It was then when the duo finally saw the barren mountain
again…
Once they were at the foot of the mountain, Gerald parked the car there. They were now in Yamashita
territory, and he knew that the area where he had fought the Hanyu assassins was not far ahead.
However, upon walking further into the territory, both of them realized that the corpses had been
cleared away. Though the tang of blood no longer remained, upon paying closer attention, dry
bloodstains still remained on the ground. Unless the Yamashitas turned the soil over or added ayer
of soil on top, the bloodstains would probably remain for a month or two.
With how few people actually came here, there was little chance for the stains to be trodden on as well,
thus leaving the stains visible for much longer…
Shortly after, eight men each wielding a longsword donning traditional Japanese garments came
running over to the two. Once they stood before the duo, one of the men asked, “Who are you two?”
“Greetings. I am Futaba Fujiko from the Futaba family. I’m here to pay your family a visit,” replied Fujiko
in a polite tone.
“You should know that the Yamashitas don’t ept guests, so please leave at once. If the elders
realize that you ’re here, we’ll surely be punished!” replied the same man.

“Before that, allow me to exin a bit further. You see, we came here a few days ago and ended up
fighting with the Hanyus at this very spot. Back then, an old gentleman stepped in to help us settle
things, and he told me to return someday. With that said, I’m here now, so please report our arrival to
him, brother,” exined Gerald who couldn’t help but feel that he was
Conversing with a cultivating family back in Weston.
After all, based on how they dressed and what they said, it seemed that they were still upholding
traditions that had been passed down for thousands of years…
“…Hmm? So you’re the Westoner who killed all those Hanyu assassins?” replied the man, feeling
slightly startled as he scanned Gerald from head to toe.
“The one and only,” said Gerald with a smile.
“…I see. Please wait here as I report this, then. Actually, before that… If you wish to fight next time,
please don’t do it here… We spent an entire day clearing this ce up, you know? It gets pretty tiring,”
muttered the man a she nodded.
“I apologize for all the trouble,” replied Gerald with a sheepish grin.
“You’d better be… Just look at those bloodstains! They’re nearly impossible to remove…” said the man
as he pointed at the stains while shaking his head.
Following that, the eight men left together.
