“How’s the security in Midwich?” Omas asked suddenly.
“It’s pretty good… It used to be a bit chaotic, but it has gotten better after I came to Midwich,” Gabe replied.
Omas nodded slightly at Gabe’s words.
However, he then asked again, “Is there organized crime in Midwich?”
Hearing at this, Gabe’s expression changed slightly.
After a while, he said, “Mr. Alder, Midwich does have such crimes and gangs, but they’ve covered up their identity and rarely do anything, so the police never got anything on them. Besides, their existence is necessary. You might not get it when I say this…”
Gabe rambled on while Omas and Vivian listened quietly.
It turned out that Midwich had a superior organization ruling it 20 years ago, and Midwich was harmonious and stable. Then the organization gradually went low-key and no longer cared about politics, so Midwich gradually became chaotic.
Many criminal organizations had thus thrived secretly.
The influence that Gabe had mentioned was born out of this. Then the criminal organization gradually became bigger and stronger, taking over all the other gangs, which then formed an order in the underworld.
The criminal organization would not randomly attack ordinary people and pose threats to ordinary people so it would not cause too much disorder in normal society.
The police could not get anything on them, nor would they need to.
“This criminal organization is now called White, and the leader is a middle-aged man surnamed White. White Group has formed a logistics company called White Logistics, and most of White Group’s members work for it.”
Both Omas and Vivian were baffled by Gabe’s statement.
To Omas, what Gabe had told about White Group was strange.
Omas and Vivian followed Gabe into Tenor Building and took the elevator to the auction hall on the 18th floor, led by the female ushers.
