Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1312
As for the refining and heating process, Gerald had memories of a skill called fire control that—while was more profound than the process carved on the cliffs—was also much easier to do.

However, since Gerald hadn’t even practiced the art of pill-making before, it was hard for him to pinpoint the more minor differences.

Regardless, just as Gerald was about to head back—now that he was done looking at the carvings—he suddenly heard a sweet voice from behind him saying, “Hello there, handsome! Could you please help me out? My kite’s gotten stuck in a tree and I’d appreciate it greatly if you gave me a hand!”

Turning around to see who the owner of the voice was, Gerald was immediately greeted by the sight of an extremely beautiful and pure-looking girl—who was wearing white sportswear and had her hair tied up in a ponytail—looking at him from under a tree, her expression rather anxious.

Due to how distressed she looked, Gerald found it rather hard to refuse her request, so he simply headed over to her.

True to her word, the kite could be seen lodged atop a tree, and though Gerald could’ve easily gotten it for her—through the use of his skills—under normal circumstances, the incident that had happened back at the Gunter mansion had taught him not to display his skills so openly.

With that in mind, not wanting to put his life at risk just to make things a little easier, Gerald then headed over to the tree to begin climbing it.

Just as he was about to start climbing, however, he noticed the girl taking a step back… before a large net sprang up from the ground!

The next thing Gerald knew, he was already hanging under the tree!

Since the net was made of gold wire, Gerald knew that he needed to use his inner strength to break free. Not wanting to resort to that just yet, he then glared at the girl before coldly asking, “What do you think you’re doing?”

At that moment, several young men and women—donning traditional clothing—began revealing themselves as they walked toward the scene from multiple directions.

“Hahaha! We’ve caught one~! We’ve caught one~! Go call Sister Fleur over and tell her we’ve caught some bait!” cheered the girl from before in glee.

With that, she picked a branch off the ground before pointing it at Gerald and demanding, “Hey! Brat! Tell us, are you the son of some rich businessman or something?”

Gerald wasn’t even sure how to reply. After all, he didn’t really have a clear grasp of the situation yet. From what he could tell, these youths were all from the valley, though he still had no idea what they were planning.

Not knowing what to do, he simply shook his head.

“Hah! See? I told you he wasn’t anyone important! Also, since he was acting pretty sneakily in those ordinary clothes of his, I have a hunch that he actually snuck in! With that in mind, it’s only right for us to use him as bait!” declared Yenny.

After giving one final glance at Gerald, Fleur finally gave in and instructed, “…Alright then. Hold onto him and take him away!”
