“How’s the security in Midwich?” Sean 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.
Sean nodded slightly at Gabe’s words.
However, favonovel.com then asked again, “Is there organized crime in Midwich?”
Hearing at this, Gabe’s expression changed slightly.
After a while, favonovel.com said, “Mr. Lennon, 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 Sean and Zander 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 Sean and Zander were baffled by Gabe’s statement.
Was a criminal organization with a legal business still a criminal organization?
Were criminal organizations not all about stealing territories, extortions, and forcing protection fees?
To Sean, what Gabe had told about White Group was strange.
They reached the place as they spoke.
Gabe stopped the car, and the three of them got out of the car and soon reached Midwich Tenor Building’s entrance.
Tenor Building was the venue for today’s auction.
Sean and Zander followed Gabe into Tenor Building and took the elevator to the auction hall on the 18th floor, led by the female ushers.
As soon as they entered the hall, a bustling atmosphere greeted them. The spacious hall was already full of auction guests. These guests were mostly wealthy businessmen or members of influential families in Midwich.
Just then, Sean and Zander saw two people they knew very well.
These two were none other than the patriarch of the Jensen family, Fernando, and his son, Jonathan!
They did not expect to run into members of the Jensen family here. Fernando and Jonathan also noticed Sean, Zander, and Gabe, who was at Sean’s side.
After a moment’s hesitation, Fernando walked over with his son and forced a smile to greet Gabe and Sean.
“Chief Police Wholeton and Mr. Lennon, I didn‘t expect to meet you here. What a coincidence! Are you here for the auction too?”
“Of course. Why would we come here if we’re not here for the auction?” Gabe asked calmly.
