Unable to list a directory because it has no read perm? I thought only 'x' matters for directories listing?

all directories in path /test/book/coffee have 'x' bit set for user/group/others. I am user 'gamer' so when I use list command I am 'others' in user-group-others. So why am I unable to list it if 'others' doesn't have read permission?

p.s I didn't bother hiding ip, its my vpn's shared ip
