I wonder if croc service use an center server somewhere.

If by that you mean a relay server, then yes. It's impossible to send data across networks without some type of port forwarding or a relay server. You can check the address of the relay server by running croc --help and the IP of the server will be shown next to the --relay option.

If you're worried about this, you can self-host the relay sever by following the instructions in the README.
