Detailed explanation-1: -By talking pleasantly, Gerrard makes the intruder delay his plan of killing him. So Gerrard tells him that he is pleased to see him. We know that this is a lie. He was not really pleased to see the criminal.
Detailed explanation-2: -Gerrard told the Intruder that he, too, was a criminal on the run. One of his recent crimes had gone wrong and one of his men had been caught. The things which should had been burnt had been found. So, due to that he expected trouble that night.
Detailed explanation-3: -He claims to be a murderer who is also wanted by the police. Gerrard calls himself the Mystery Man, who has been not found by anyone. Thus, Gerrard convinced the intruder that he won’t get anything by taking his identity. Telling this story, Gerrard convinced the intruder for not killing him.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: The mystery that Gerrard proposes to explain is a story that he makes to fool the intruder by making him believe that he is also a dangerous man. He tells him that he himself is a criminal. He asks the intruder that why doesn’t he meet any tradespeople and be a bit of a mystery man here today and gone tomorrow.
