Johnson’s expression didn’t change. There was a brief pause before he spoke again. “Tell me more about this so-called connection. What do you know about the person who pulled the strings?”

Niko replied, “I don’t know much. I only knew this person had helped my father and me a lot. They even gave my father a lot of money before. But I don’t even know the person’s gender. My father never gave me a name, just said the person owed him. That’s why they helped us.”

Johnson fell silent, his mind clearly racing. His eyes narrowed into slits as he stared into the darkness, contemplating what he had just heard.
