Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1785

The next morning, as Gerald and Rey were still sleeping, the doorbell woke them up.

Rey walked out of the room to the door half asleep and opened it.

Once the door was opened, he saw a few men in uniforms standing outside. At the sight of the logo on their

uniforms, he knew that they were from the Grand Council.

“Excuse me, are Mr. Gerald Crawford and Mr. Rey Leighton here?”

One of the inspectors entered the house and asked.

Rey nodded and replied, “I’m Rey. What is it?”

“Take him away!”

Once he heard Rey’s words, the inspector ordered his men, and immediately, two inspectors came forward and

grabbed Rey’s arms, dragging him outside.

“Hey, what are you doing?!”

Rey shouted immediately.

The commotion woke Gerald, Juno, and Nori up.

They got out of their rooms quickly.

“Who are you?”

When Gerald came out, he looked at the people from the Grand Council in surprise and asked.

“You must be Mr. Gerald Crawford. We suspect that you are related to the death of Chief Lake, who is also known as

Old Flint. So, we want to bring you back for an investigation now!”

As the inspector was talking, he took out an arrest warrant and showed it to Gerald.

“Wait. What did you say? Chief Lake is dead?!”

Gerald was stunned when he heard this.

This news was really too surprising to Gerald.

They had still been with Old Flint early this morning. How could he be dead now?! This was simply too bizarre.

“Mr. Crawford, I hope you will cooperate with us!”

The inspector was well aware of Gerald’s identity. So, he maintained a gentle tone when he was talking to Gerald.

“Alright. Please let us get dressed before going with you!”

Gerald had no problem with it and agreed to it right away.

Soon after, Gerald and Rey got changed and left with the inspectors of the Grand Council.

On the way to the Grand Council, Gerald remained silent in the car.

Old Flint’s death was completely unexpected. Gerald truly had no idea how he had died.

It seemed like there was something weird in regards to this.

Soon, Gerald and Rey were brought to the Grand Council and into separate interrogation rooms for questioning.

After a while, two inspectors pushed the door open and sat down.

“Mr. Crawford, can you tell me where you went with Chief Lake last night? What did you do there?”

One of the inspectors stared at Gerald and asked.

“We went to Ember Lord’s home last night,” Gerald told the inspector.

“What time did you come back?” asked the inspector.

“About two o’clock in the morning. It was Chief Lake who drove us home. After that, he left on his own,” Gerald

replied seriously.

“Did you two stay in your house after that? Did you go out at all?” questioned the inspector.

Gerald frowned.

“I suggest that you do not waste your time on the two of us. Do you honestly think we would kill Chief Lake?

Besides, there are CCTVs along the street where Chief Lake met with the accident. Why don’t you retrieve the

footage and watch it?”

Gerald didn’t want to keep on answering the questions anymore, so he asked the inspector in return.

Hearing Gerald’s words, the inspector was speechless.

Indeed, what Gerald had just said did make sense.

In truth, they had brought Gerald and Rey back just to grasp the situation.

No evidence showed that it was Gerald and Rey who had killed Old Flint.

However, apart from the two of them, Old Flint had not had any contact with other people.
