Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2152 “If you don’t mind, could we talk for a bit, Mr. Crawford?” asked Ichiro as he heaved a sigh. Ichiro, forone, couldn’t talk to his colleagues about some things and he didn’t have any close friends nearby.With that in mind, he figured that Gerald would be the perfect listener.novelbin
“Sure. I don’t mind,” replied Gerald with a nod, figuring that he could possibly learn more clues aboutthe person who had murdered the Yanam special forces soldier. What more, this was his chance to seeif the Japanese military had managed to figure out that he was Adler’s murderer.
“I’m glad you agreed! Please, follow me. You know, my family mailed some good tea to me recently, I’lllet you try some,” said Ichiro with a smile.
Following that, the duo soon found themselves walking into Ichiro’s office. Upon entering, Ichiroimmediately told his secretary to get some tea ready before gesturing for Gerald to take a seat
“The problems keep stacking up, Mr. Crawford… If I’m to be honest, I don’t even know where I shouldstart investigating! But if I don’t start getting results, I may not even be able to keep my job! ” mutteredIchiro in resignation.
“You’re telling me. There truly has been quite a bit going on around the Japanese training groundsrecently Still, haven’t you managed to obtain other clues about the two murders since the last time wetalked?” asked Gerald with a nod.
“Nothing with Adler’s case… To think that we haven’t been able to find anything even after half a monthhas passed! There just doesn’t seem to be any traces of the man left! I truly think that Adler’sdisappearance is an unsolvable case… As for the other person, we’ve found his corpse and sent itback to Yanam. While we’re currently doing a thorough investigation based on the clues the murdererleft behind, we don’t know if we’ll be able to sniff him out in the end…” explained Ichiro.
Ichiro was only speaking this casually about all this since he knew that Gerald wasn’t part of themilitary. He was also pretty sure that Gerald wasn’t involved with either of the cases, which was why hedidn’t mind sharing all these details to let off some steam.
“I see… For your sake, I hope you’ll be able to find the culprit soon…” replied Gerald with a nod.
“Thank you… You know, the colonel told me that if I continue failing to uncover these two cases, notonly will the colonel be fired, but I’ll be forced to resign as well. You can tell that they’re serious just byhow many Japanese military soldiers are standing guard over the training grounds now. After all, a thirdcase would be disastrous… I’ll be frank and say that I’m thankful that the only victims are those fromYanam. It means that we only need to compensate Yanam with gifts or something else. If the casesinvolved someone from Weston, the Western Union, or any of the European countries, we’d truly be inhot water! ” said Ichiro as he shook his head with a sigh, clearly vexed out of his mind.
As Ichiro’s secretary returned with some tea prompting Ichiro to hand a glass over to Gerald, Geraldcouldn’t help but ask, “Indeed… Speaking of which, there’s a lot of hotels nearby, right? Since you havethe murderer’s height and general body description, maybe you could find him within the hotels in thearea. Just a thought…”
Naturally, Gerald was only suggesting this since he was planning to do so himself in the first place.However, Ichiro simply replied, “I’ve already done that to no avail Hell, we did it the day after theincident, but there simply were no traces of our culprit. I suspect he must have immediately fled afterdoing the deed…”
Frowning slightly, Gerald was prompted to ask, “… Are you absolutely sure…?”
While he initially had his doubts that the person was a Crawford cultivator, after what Ichiro had just toldhim, it seemed that the culprit really was a cultivator…
