Semua Bab The Secretly Rich Man: Bab 1871 - Bab 1880

“From what I’ve managed to gather up till this point, the killer was never a human, but instead, a grudgeful ghost!” “…Come again? A grudgeful ghost? Are you absolutely sure, Mr. Crawford? This isn’t exactly a minor case,” replied Harold in a slightly doubtful tone. Truth be told, Harold didn’t really believe in ghosts. However, with so many supernatural occurrences happening before his very eyes, what other choice did he have but to believe? “Since you’ve hired me to solve the case, you’ll just have to trust me, Mr. Lee. Regardless, I promise you that I, Gerald Crawford, never lie about things like this! If you still refuse to believe me, however, then let’s not continue wasting each other’s time,” replied Gerald as he immediately turned around to leave. If his judgment wasn’t going to be trusted, then he may as well just leave. Quickly stopping Gerald from leaving, Harold then sighed before saying, “You misunderstand me, Mr. Crawford! I’m not doubting your capabilities at a

Realizing that Rey was looking at the evil spirit, Gerald then replied, “I’ll be exterminating it so that it can’t cause any further harm!” Following that, Gerald took the Phangrottom Talisman out… and upon waving it before the evil spirit, it instantly let out a mighty roar! However, the longer it roared, the feebler it sounded, until eventually, it was reduced into nothing but ash… And just like that, Gerald had defeated the evil spirit! Thanks to the Phangrottom Talisman, dealing with spirits was no longer a major issue for Gerald. Rey himself could only stare dumbfounded by how easily Gerald had exorcised the evil spirit. To think that the Phangrottom Talisman was that powerful! “The talisman is truly incredible, brother Gerald!” exclaimed Rey. “Indeed. Why else do you think the Phangrottom Clan see it as a worthy treasure?” replied Gerald. If even the Phangrottom Clan treasured it, it was undoubtedly a powerful item… It certainly explained why people even risked thei

Now that there were no further distractions and they were mostly done with their meals anyway, it was high time to discuss things more seriously. “Well, I’m thinking of starting a new office in a new place. If things work out, we’ll have our own established company that deals with psychic matters. That way, people will know where to find us if they have issues regarding such things,” replied Gerald. After solving today’s mystery, Gerald had thought about how the Great Council only dealt with matters between humans up till this point. If he established a company that specialized in dealing with the paranormal, those seeking help would be able to get actual results instead of having clueless investigators. What more, with the gates to the ghost world now open, more incidents like this would surely happen, which further prompted Gerald to give serious thought about the idea. Either way, after listening to Gerald’s suggestion, the trio immediately nodded without the slightest hesit

“You tired of living or something, kid? Are you seriously meddling in my affairs? Do you even know who I am?!” growled the scarred man as he continued glaring fiercely at Rey. “Don’t know, don’t care! Regardless, let them go already or I’ll call the Great Council over!” retorted Rey before fishing his phone out in hopes of threatening the gangster. Upon hearing that, the scarred man and his underlings instantly began laughing mockingly. Once he was done laughing, the scarred man then jeered, “Do you honestly think they’ll come over when they know we’re involved! Go ahead and call them then! See what happens!” Hearing that, Rey was slightly taken aback. To think that these hooligans weren’t afraid of the Great Council’s power! Shaking his head, the scarred man then signaled for his men to go after Rey, prompting Rey to instinctually take a step back… However, before he could take another, he suddenly felt a firm pat on his shoulder. Turning around and seeing that it was Ge

Tonight, some people were simply fated to mysteriously disappear off the face of the planet… Soon enough, Gerald found himself hovering over the Hoklux Gang’s headquarters… As previously seen, the Hoklux Gang was a bunch of hooligans, and the head of the group was a vicious man known simply as Roger. From the rumors Gerald had managed to gather, he was frequently summoned to the Great Council for ‘coffee talks’. Upon phasing through the headquarters’ ceiling, Gerald was immediately greeted by the sight of the scarred man kneeling before a seated person—whom Gerald assumed to be Roger—while saying, “I apologize, master…! We truly are useless for being defeated by others…!” “That you all are! Rubbish! To think that all of you weren’t a match for a single man! You’ve truly embarrassed the Hoklux Gang this time!” retorted Roger as he glared at the scarred man. Hearing that, the scarred man and his subordinates simply lowered their heads, not having the guts to even look up. “Y-
