After getting into the car with the short-haired woman, Xiao Xiao still felt a little puzzled.

Although the woman appeared capable and had a powerful presence, he could clearly feel her examining him.

Of course, she hid it well. Whether she was observing or sizing him up, she was extremely restrained.

It seemed to be an instinct honed through years of living in danger. Yet in front of an Observer, that skill was no different from making no attempt to hide it at all.

What would they do?

Xiao Xiao silently wondered, And who exactly is the owner behind these docks?

Although he had worked at the docks for more than half a month, Xiao Xiao had kept his head down and worked without ever asking questions. He now realized that he had never actually looked into this matter. But after thinking about it, he felt relieved:

No matter who they were, behind everything, they were people of this city.

They themselves were even part of the City Will. What was there to ask?

"He was taken to meet the Boss, yet he isn't nervous at all? He didn't even ask any questions?"

After observing Xiao Xiao without showing anything on her face, the short-haired woman was also surprised for a moment. Why is this person so calm?

The car stopped in front of an old building that looked somewhat aged and exuded a strong artistic atmosphere.
