Chapter 2225
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2225 “The… pendant?” asked Takuya and Fujiko in unison, clearly confused.
“Indeed. The truth is, I came to Japan looking for descendants of the Seadom tribe. After carefulconsideration, I’ve come to the conclusion that the Futabas appear to be just that. After all, why elsewould Miss Fujiko possess that special pendant?” explained Gerald.
Upon hearing that, Fujiko held onto her pendant before asking, “Isn’t this just a regular pendant…?”
While she did find it odd that it was always cool to touch, she had never given much thought into it.
“So, you actually know about the tribe…” muttered Takuya who appeared much calmer than hisdaughter.
Watching as Takuya then placed his hands together, Gerald simply nodded as he said, “Indeed. It’s thereason why I came here in the first place.”
“I see… Either way, let’s talk about this someplace else” said Takuya as he took a cigarette out beforeleading the group to what appeared to be an ordinary cupboard.
Upon opening the topmost drawer, everyone stared wide eyed as Takuya pressed a secret buttoninside…!
Following that, one of the walls that had been decorated with paintings and calligraphy suddenly beganshifting…!
Staring at the now revealed secret room, the surprised Fujiko couldn’t help but exclaim, “S-since whenwas this here?!”
She was, of course, rightfully shocked. After all, she had been living here all her life! How had she notknown about this place!
Contrary to Fujiko’s reaction, when Gerald, Aiden, and Master Ghost saw the room, they couldn’t helpbut grin. After all, this meant that they had guessed correctly! The Futabas truly were the descendantsof the Seadom tribe!
Either way, upon entering the room, Takuya flipped another switch, prompting a sole lightbulb to turnon. The light quickly revealed an antique table with four benches around it right in the middle of theroom. From how dusty everything was, it was apparent that nobody had come in here for ages.
After blowing the dust off the table, Takuya took a seat before asking, “Now, before anything else…How did you learn about the Seadom tribe in the first place?”novelbin
Sighing in response, Gerald then said, “Well, my grandfather’s on Yearning Island right now, and he’sabducted my parents and sister… Unable to locate the island itself, I eventually learned that theSeadom tribe had access to it, which prompted me to come to Japan in the first place…”
“I see. And how did you make the connection between Yearning Island and the Seadom tribe?”inquired Takuya.
“From this sea map here,” replied Gerald as he retrieved the sea map from his jacket before laying itflat in front of Takuya.
Seeing that, Master Ghost then added, “Some time ago, an island suddenly appeared on the map, andwe saw an ancient tribe doing some kind of ritual on it. After a bit of digging, we realized that the tribe
was known as the Seadom tribe, and that they were located in Japan. While we had assumed that wewould be looking for a needle in a haystack, none of us could’ve guessed that we would accidentallybump into Miss Fujiko…”
