Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2196
Nodding in response, Ryugu immediately began heading off to do as he was ordered. However, before leaving the
room, he turned to look at the other team leaders before declaring, “While I’m away, make sure to guard the
patriarch well. Gerald’s extremely strong, and believe me when I say that even if all of you attack him at the same
time, he’ll probably remain unscathed! With that said, if anything happens to the patriarch, I’ll be sure to have your
heads!”
“We’ll be vigilant, team leader!” replied a few of the team leaders, prompting Ryugu to resume his task.
Moving back to Gerald and his party, they soon saw the guard returning to let them in. As they were led deeper into
the area, none of them bothered to look around.

from the looks of it, they were headed to the innermost area of the manor.
Though Gerald didn’t show it, he had honestly been vigilant ever since they stepped foot into the manor. After all,
he was well aware that this was still the home of an assassin family. Knowing that it was better to be safe than
sorry, Gerald had made sure to spread his Herculean Primordial Spirit around to get a better grasp of his
surroundings. It was also because of that that Gerald couldn’t help but smirk.
After all, he could already sense the presence of a group of people about thirty feet away from them who were
rapidly approaching them. From what he could assume, this was the Hanyu family’s way of preparing to deal with
him. Of course, Gerald didn’t tell Aiden or Fujiko about this.
Either way, the trio was soon greeted by the sight of a row of villas…
Briefly glancing around, Gerald soon yelled, “Is anyone there?”
“But of course! Still, what a surprise that you’d pay my family a visit at such an hour!” declared a voice that
emanated from one of the villas. Shortly after, Suijin and a few of the team leaders showed themselves.
Though Suijin gave off the impression that he was a courteous person, he had honestly been wary of Gerald this
entire time. Still, since Gerald was daring enough to enter his territory, Suijin was definitely going to make it difficult
for Gerald to leave. Hell, if things went swimmingly, this could be his chance of getting rid of the boy!
Regardless, after a brief silence, Gerald turned to look at Aiden and Fujiko before saying, “Shall we?”
Upon hearing that, Suijin couldn’t help but frown slightly. To think that Gerald would just ignore him! Still, he quickly
reverted to his polite façade as he replied, “Yes, please, come in!”
As Gerald sat cross legged in the reception room, Suijin realized that his family’s assassins whom he had requested
to come over earlier were already closing in. Finding solace in that, Suijin then straightened his back before asking,
“Now then… To what do I owe the pleasure?”

“Hmm? I was just passing by so I figured why not pay your family a visit. Besides, I’m pretty sure there’s a
misunderstanding between us, so why not take this chance to talk things out?” replied Gerald who looked much
more relaxed in comparison. For those who didn’t know any better, they’d probably assume that it was Suijin that
had entered Gerald’s territory.
“I agree. For one, I believe that Endo and Izumi are currently being locked up in the Futaba manor, correct?” asked
Suijin as he narrowed his eyes, a faint smile on his face…
“That’s correct,” replied Gerald.
Taking a deep breath, Suijin then said, “Then please release them. The two are extremely important family
members.”
“I’m afraid I can’t do that. In case you weren’t aware, they attempted to assassinate me. With that said, after
taking them down, I handed them to the Futaba family’s patriarch so that he could interrogate them. After all, it’s
only fair for me to want to know who sent them over. Regardless, though we were initially planning to let them off
after they told us who they worked for, neither of them said a word, even after continuously being tortured.”
