Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2197

“With that said, both of them are currently on the verge of death. I’m afraid you’ll have to bring stretchers along if

you truly wish to rescue them. Otherwise, they’ll probably not make it,” replied Gerald as he stared Suijin directly in

the eye.

“… I-is that so…” replied Suijin, his hands already trembling slightly as he desperately attempted to keep his cool.

“Release them, you mother*cker! Otherwise, you won’t be leaving this place alive!” roared Ryugu as he rushed into

the room!

Since he was the one who had sent Endo and Izumi out on the mission without Suijin’s knowledge, Ryugu knew that

he was going to be held responsible for whatever happened to them. With that said, as long as they were still alive,

he would probably just have to endure a punishment or two. However, if they were dead, there was a high chance

that he would be too…!

Either way, upon seeing Ryugu rush over, Aiden immediately got to his feet! Within seconds, the two were already

exchanging dozens of blows!

Sensing that Aiden was no pushover, Suijin quickly scowled, “Ryugu! Step down!”

Upon hearing that, the now gasping Ryugu immediately took a few steps back. To think that not only had he failed

to gain the upper hand against Aiden, but he was almost hit a few times as well!

Secretly pleased to see that Aiden had managed to remain unscathed, Gerald then placed his hands on his knees

before looking at Suijin with a smile as he asked, “Now then… Since the interrogation didn’t work, I may as well ask

straight from the source. Tell me, why would Endo and Izumi suddenly try to assassinate me? As far as I’m

concerned, I’ve never had any beef with them. Hell, the night they attempted that assassination was the first time I

met them! Either way, do explain why they came after me.”

“I wasn’t aware of their actions at the time, so I can’t say for sure. Had I known that they were after your head, I

would’ve definitely tried to stop them!” replied Suijin who knew that playing dumb was his only way out of this.

“I see… Could you also be imaware of the assassination attempt on Miss Futaba then?” asked Gerald.

“With all due respect, that’s a matter between the Hanyus and the Futabas, mister. As nothing but a guest, don’t

you think you lack the right to ask about such things?” replied Suijin who’s expression had gotten slightly ugly. He

couldn’t answer any of Gerald’s questions at all…!

“Point taken,” replied Gerald with a brief nod.

Shaking his head, Suijin then gestured at one of his subordinates before ordering, “Get us some tea!”

A short while later, Gerald was prompted to ask, “Actually, there’s one more thing I’d like to confirm. You see, back

when I was at the Japanese military training grounds a few days ago, I was attacked by an assassin from the

assassin list who’s probably quite high-ranked. With that said, I was wondering if you were the ones who sent him

after me.”

While Gerald was pretty sure that Kai was the one who had hired that assassin, he wanted to catch the Hanyus off

guard.

As expected, upon hearing that, Suijin and Ryugu immediately yelled, “Impossible!”

“Oh? Then why did he tell me that you were the ones who hired him?” fibbed Gerald even though he could already

confirm based on their reactions that they weren’t involved with that assassin.

“… Mister, we’re an assassin family. Hiring another assassin to do our job would be absolutely humiliating!”

explained Suijin in resignation.
