When all the workers looked over, even Gerard, as composed as he was, felt his body stiffen; then he subconsciously reached behind him.
Yet, he forgot that he had no weapons on him.
But...it seemed that there was no need to use weapons.
Gerard originally thought he was exposed and would have to use force to escape from here, but he soon realized the behavior of these workers was strange; they were not staring at Gerard, but at Bai Wei's fingers. As Gerard moved his fingers, their gazes would follow, just like rigid machines.
Yet in those pairs of lifeless eyes, there seemed to be some kind of desire.
Aside from that, they made no other movements—none got up from their seats, none spoke; they just watched.
Watched silently.
This scene made Gerard feel a bit creeped out, and he whispered, "What's going on here?"
"What are you asking about?"
"About everything that's happening now."
