Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2106 Shortly after, they arrived at the dining room. By that point, Tanaka’s men had already returned with breakfast, so after the two sat at opposite ends of the dining table, both of them began having their meals. Naturally, they continued discussing the matter in between bites…
While things had calmed down a little at the Futaba manor, the Hanyus were in complete disarray. Ryugu, for one, had been seated on his wooden chair in his room the entire night, constantly staring at his cell phone with his fist clenched.
The final message he had received from Endo was from last night, stating that he and Izumi had successfully managed to sneak into the manor and locate Gerald. Though Ryugu had expected them to update him on their situation right before they made their move, the message never came.
Now that ten hours had passed since their last message, Ryugu was understandably getting more and more worried. Even so, he refused to believe that the two capable team leaders had failed. After all, he of all people, knew how strong they were, especially when they paired up. If they were able to secretly assassinate the leader of a terrorist organization, finishing off
Gerald should naturally be a piece of cake for them! Hell, just sending one of them should’ve sufficed! However, Ryugu wanted everything to be perfect, so he had sent both of them together.
Still, now that so much time had passed without any news from them, Ryugu couldn’t help but fear the worst. At this moment, he would’ve very much preferred receiving a message from them, stating that they had failed, rather than continue going through this agonizing wait…
At that moment, his door suddenly burst open, prompting Ryugu to leap from his seat and yell, “Any news from them?!”
“… U-unfortunately not, team leader…” replied Kanagawa Takeshi, one of the other team leaders.
Frowning slightly, Ryugu then gripped his phone tightly while muttering, “… It’s impossible… Isn’t there any way to find out what’s happened to them?”
“Trust me when I say we’ve been doing our best, team leader… Regardless, according to our men keeping an eye on the manor, nobody’s entered the Futaba residence ever since Endo and Izumi went in. As for the only person who had left throughout the past ten hours, he had apparently only gone out to get breakfast, and returned shortly after… If you ’re wondering why we haven’t done any internal investigations, we’re simply worried that we may unnecessarily increase our chances of being found out by the Futabas…” replied Takeshi in a resigned tone.
Though Takeshi really wanted to enter and find out what had happened to Endo and Izumi as well, his better judgment made him refrain from doing so. After all, if the duo had gotten into trouble, then there was a high chance that he’d get caught as well. Should that happen, then everything would surely begin to crumble.

Understanding where Takeshi was coming from, Ryugu then asked in resignation, “… Well, then did any of the men hear any peculiar sounds after Endo and Izumi got in…?”
“Not at all. After all, you told us to keep an eye out on the entrance. Since Izumi and Endo entered from the side, we weren’t even aware when they had made their move. With that in mind, it was pretty much improbable for us to have heard anything…” replied Takeshi as he shook his head.
“God fcking dmn it…! How the hell did two of our family’s best assassins just vanish into thin air after attempting to assassinate Gerald?! Even if they got found out or had to deal with the fighters of the Futaba family, they should’ve reported back by now!” roared Ryugu who was now so infuriated that his entire body was trembling. Unable to hold back his rage, he then tossed his phone to the floor with so much force that the phone smashed into a million pieces…!
Seeing that, the shocked Takeshi immediately took a few steps back before lowering his head, not daring to say a word…
After breathing heavily for a short while, the enraged Ryugu couldn’t help but laugh coldly before sneering, “How… How absolutely weird… How the hell had such mighty assassins just disappeared upon entering the Futaba manor…?!”
