Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1822
Lying on his stomach, Gerald—who was careful to be quiet as he did all this on the roof—then stared into the yard…
Only to see that the bespectacled man was now standing right before Mario! How unexpected!
From the looks of it, they seemed to be discussing something important…
While their meeting was already astonishing enough, what happened next truly shocked Gerald.
Eyes widened, Gerald could only stare as Mario took a dagger from his jacket and stabbed the bespectacled man
right in the chest! Mario seemed to have stabbed the man right in the heart too, since the bespectacled man died
almost immediately after…
As the bespectacled man flopped lifelessly to the ground, Gerald saw that his eyes were wide open, an evident sign

Regardless, with the man now dead, Mario then wiped it clean with a cloth that he had brought along before sliding
the dagger back into his jacket…
Following that, Mario then shouted toward the house, prompting two men to come out shortly after.
“Take care of the corpse!” ordered Mario as the two men quickly nodded before stuffing the now dead
bespectacled man into a sack and carrying him away…
Of course, Gerald had witnessed all this. Truth be told, he hadn’t expected Mario to be such a ruthless person. To
think that he would just murder his own client right after obtaining the money… What more, the crystal skull was
now his to have again! How cruel!
After seeing all this take place, Gerald was prompted to think, ‘What is even wrong with the world today… How
heartless… He’s already paid for the item, just let him have it! At the very least, you could have spared his life even
if you took the item by force!’
Whatever the case was, Gerald felt lucky that he hadn’t bid on the crystal skull back when he was still in the black
market. After all, who knows if he could’ve potentially ended up dying like the bespectacled man…
Either way, Gerald then shook his head before returning to his party.
“Anything interesting happened…?” asked Juno curiously.
“Indeed. The bespectacled man is now dead!” replied Gerald without mincing his words.
“…Huh? But why? And how?” exclaimed Rey, astonished.
“Remember that auctioneer back at the black market? That Mario guy? He killed him!” explained Gerald as he
further elaborated what he had earlier saw.
By the time Gerald was done, Rey and the others were momentarily stunned speechless. To think that Mario was

“…Since he committed the murder so efficiently… He must have done the same to all the previous clients!” said
Juno.
Nodding in response, Gerald then replied, “I believe so as well. These people are making quick bucks without having
any losses!”
“How obnoxious!” growled Rey.
Even so, there wasn’t really anything the four people could do. After all, the bespectacled man was already dead.
“…Regardless, let’s leave this place as soon as possible. Lingering around here is bad news!” said Gerald after a
brief pause, now well aware of how evil people could get in this town.
With that, the party of four then began leaving the area…
Unfortunately, since it was already getting dark, Gerald and his party had no choice but to stay the night in town…
Interestingly enough, all the accommodation places here resembled ancient inns.
After locating a rather inconspicuous inn, the four then decided to stay the night there…
