LA Detective

Chapter 154 Tracking (five thousand)
Metzker Bar.

In the evening, the First Squadron of the Robbery and Murder Division gathered at the bar.

As soon as Luke walked into the bar, there was a wave of commotion.

Jones, the captain of a squadron of the anti-crime and anti-narcotics department, raised his glass and joked, "Hey, respect our lonely hero."

Other police officers also booed one after another, holding up their glasses to signal.

Luke said, "Captain Jones, although I respect you very much, if you mention the word "lonely hero" again, you will still be beaten."

"He's really a rebellious kid, but I like it. If one day you want to change jobs, you can consider joining the anti-crime and anti-drug department." Jones has a good impression of Luke, and strictly speaking, he still owes Luke a favor.

When Luke investigated the will case before, he found David's wife Lindsay and her boyfriend Logan Salm. Luke found a large amount of drugs in Logan Salm's house and handed them over to Jones' squadron.

Susan smiled and said, "Jones, don't poach the wall in front of me, otherwise, you won't be the only one who beat you."

Luke was in the limelight during the school Y shooting case, so it was inevitable that he would be teased by his colleagues.

Luke didn't take it seriously either. Americans like to tease others in a humorous way.

It's not a bad thing to be ridiculed. The Grand Commander is also ridiculed, but no one dares to publicly ridicule blacks, gays and women.

if you serious you lose.

After the shooting incident and the press conference, Luke's popularity increased, and many police officers came over to say hello.

The group simply chose a small cubicle in the corner, which is cleaner and more convenient for chatting.

The deputy team picked up the beer, "Boy, congratulations on becoming famous."

Luke also picked up a beer and clinked glasses with his teammates, "This is not my original intention, and I don't want to be famous."

David said, "For a police detective, being too famous is not a good thing, at least I think so, it is easy to be targeted."

The deputy team laughed, "That's because you have a problem with the way you handle the case. Even if you're not famous, you're still easy to be targeted, right?"

Susan said, "I have had a great time with David since I took over as captain."

"I don't mean now, but when you were working in the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

Susan spread her hands, "I just act according to the regulations, and there is no question of who to target."

The deputy team snapped their fingers, "That's what I want to say, David's way of handling the case is likely to violate police regulations, if he becomes famous, he will stumble sooner or later.

But Luke is different, this kid is capable, smooth enough, it is difficult to be caught as a pigtail, and he has a reputation, so he is easy to be promoted by his superiors.

I have a hunch he's going to be promoted again soon.

Luke Vice!

Whoa, that sounds harsh. "

Xiao Hei was surprised, "Deputy team, are you serious?"

The deputy team said, "Based on my 40 years of experience in the police force, this possibility is very high."

Xiao Hei asked, "Since you are so experienced, why..."

"Stop, I know what you're going to say." Little Black said before being interrupted by the vice team, "A few years ago, I went to a party, and a group of us were talking about it, the richest one People rarely talk to each other.

After the meeting was over, I heard him complain, "These poor people really know a lot.

That's right, I am the poor ghost he said.

Sometimes it is not enough to just understand, but to be able to do it.

The most important thing is luck.

Some people always say that the harder you work, the luckier you get.

In fact, it should be reversed, the luckier you are, the harder you work.

Some people don't even have the chance to work hard. "

Xiao Hei's words touched the sore spot of the deputy team, and made him feel emotional.

Luke really wanted to hear his immediate superior's opinion on this matter, "Captain, what do you think?"

Susan ate a nut, thought for a while and said, "If the general case is famous, I think there are advantages and disadvantages.

But if it is because of the school Y shooting incident, the advantages definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

You not only caught the hot spot, maintained the campus order, but more importantly, saved a seriously injured student.

Not only can you gain the favor of the students and the gratitude of the parents, but even the citizens of the entire Los Angeles city will have a good impression of you.

This kind of case can easily help people gain points, establish a positive image, and help promotion. "

Luke nodded. He and Susan had similar thoughts. If it was an ordinary homicide, he might not attend the press conference, but the school Y shooting could easily gain the public's favor and a positive image.

This image may not be very useful in China, but it is different in Los Angeles.

From the commander-in-chief to the mayor, if you want to sit in that position, you have to establish a good image and gain the favor and support of the people.

When people think of school shootings, they think of Luke.

The more cases Luke solves, the greater his influence.

When the prestige has accumulated to a certain level, he will be asked to help stand in the mayoral election.

By then, Luke's influence was far beyond that of a policeman.

He will step into a new class.

Of course, it's still early to say this, but he already has a good starting point.

……

The next morning.

Luke was woken up by the system beep.

[Congratulations to the host, successfully solved the 'school Y shooting case', and won 20 lucky draw opportunities.

The host rescued a victim, received gratitude from the victim and family members, and rewarded five lucky draw opportunities.

The host successfully countered the media's malicious distortion, reversed the image of the police station among the citizens, and awarded ten lucky draw opportunities. 】

After getting 35 lucky draw chances at one time, Luke felt that he had developed again.

lottery!

The pointer turns...

It was drawn 35 times, resulting in four cards and $3.1.

Among them are two old cards, one precision card and one micro-expression analysis card

Two new cards, Boxing Card [Learning card, can quickly learn and comprehend boxing skills, and the time limit is three hours. 】

This is the 4th study card that Luke got.

Luke prefers getting study cards over other types of cards.

Because as long as you learn the skills on the card, it will become your own skills forever.

Before, he obtained a pistol card, which allowed him to improve his marksmanship in a short period of time, especially in shooting cases. He hit the suspect's arm twice, which made the suspect lose his combat effectiveness and would not affect the investigation of the case. .

Of course, if the suspect is dangerous enough, Luke will also shoot him in the head.

The observation card makes Luke's observation ability stronger and stronger, and he can find subtle clues in the case, which is a very practical skill.

The micro-expression analysis card allows Luke to understand people's true emotions. Although it is not useful for everyone, it is also a practical skill that can be used not only in work, but also in life.

Now Luke has obtained a boxing card again, which can quickly learn boxing.

Luke can box by himself, but that's just a little better than ordinary people, and he can't compare with amateurs, let alone professionals.

Now he has drawn two more boxing cards, which can greatly improve his actual combat ability.

Also a very useful card.

Luke was in a good mood, made a pack of instant coffee, and stood in his small courtyard drinking coffee.

It has always been his dream to have a small courtyard of his own.

In the morning, the cool breeze, clear sky, green lawn, and leisurely drinking coffee have always been the life he wanted.

Luke looked at it, and always felt that there was still something missing in the small courtyard.

There is still a lack of a table and chairs, it will be more comfortable if you can sit and drink coffee.

Just do what you think, Luke is just resting today and is going to go shopping in the supermarket.

Having just won another $3.1, Luke's total assets are now as high as $41.

Isn't the joy of earning money just for spending?

Luke has always liked the bamboo and rattan tables and chairs, which are light, cheap, and pollution-free, and he lives in a Chinese community, so it doesn't look obtrusive.

Instead of going to the supermarket, he was going to visit Chinatown.

I wanted to ask the little fat man to go together, but the boy said that there was something to do, Daisy was working overtime today, so Luke had to go alone.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Luke set off in the Mercedes-Benz G500. Being able to drive a luxury car to go out is a very cool thing in itself.

Not long after the Mercedes-Benz left the Redu community, a Ford parked on the side of the road started and headed in the same direction...

After driving for about ten minutes, Luke arrived in Chinatown.

He hasn't had breakfast yet, so he ordered a Roujiamo and a rice noodle.

Very satisfying to eat.

After dinner, start walking around Chinatown to see if there is anything you need.

First of all, when shopping in Chinatown, you must avoid being taken advantage of.

Luke first visited the place where bamboo weaving was sold, and after shopping around, he bought a set of bamboo and rattan tables and chairs. The price was not expensive, and the shipping fee was only 300 US dollars.

After that, Luke visited the tea market again. He wanted to drink tea for a long time, but he never had time to buy it.

There are many meat eaters in Los Angeles, so drinking tea is the best way to relieve greasy food.

I first bought a tea tray, which cost about a hundred dollars.

A purple sand tea set, three hundred dollars.

After that, I bought four kinds of tea, Longjing, Tieguanyin, Jasmine Dragon Ball, and Pu'er, which cost about two hundred dollars.

For tea, you get what you pay for.

The first time I bought a small amount, I bought it back and tasted it, and then bought it if it tasted good.

He put the tea tray and tea leaves in the car, and prepared to go shopping again, eat lunch before going home.

He walked into a restaurant street and turned into a side street.

After a while, a white man also turned into the side street, wearing a gray baseball cap, walking forward with his head bowed.

Luke suddenly pulled out his pistol, "lapd, raise your hands!"

Startled, the white man raised his hands, "Hey, you scared me, why are you pointing a gun at me?"

"Why follow me?"

"I didn't follow you, I just wanted to find a restaurant to eat."

"You don't need to quibble, I've spotted you a long time ago. I took you for a walk in Chinatown for a long time, and there should be a lot of surveillance footage of you stalking. If you don't admit it, I can only arrest you for assaulting the police."

"Assaulting the police?" The man showed a surprised look, "You are not joking, I have never approached you, and now you pointed the gun at me."

"I think your stalking poses a threat to my personal safety, and I have the right to arrest you for assaulting the police.

How to make a decision is up to the judge. "

Police in the United States is a high-risk profession.

Unlike office workers who deal with customers, police officers deal mostly with criminals.Based on the protection of the special profession of the police, the crime of assaulting the police is very serious.

Although there was no personal contact, it was determined that the possibility of assaulting the police was unlikely, but it was not completely impossible.

In addition, as long as the monitoring shows that the other party has stalking behavior, it can also be judged as stalking and harassment. It is reasonable for Luke to arrest the other party.

The man softened, "Hey, there is no need to make things so complicated, we can talk about it and solve it in another way."

"for example?"

"You let me go, I promise I won't appear around you again."

"Turn around, I'm going to arrest you." Obviously, Luke was not happy with the proposal.

"Please don't do this, I really didn't intend to hurt you..." Seeing Luke take out the handcuffs, the man became a little anxious, "Hey, you really don't need to do this."

"If you dare to move around, I will shoot directly. I am not wearing a law enforcement recorder now..." Luke directly cuffed his hands.

"I can't move, but I still want to talk to you and find a better solution."

"Lying on the wall." Luke began to search, and took out a pistol from his body, "Wow, you really want to kill me, I guess your fingerprints should be on the handle.

The possibility of judging assaulting the police has increased by one point. "

"I really didn't want to hurt you, let alone assault the police. This is a complete misunderstanding. I have a gun license."

Luke asked, "Do you think the judge will believe you, or will he believe me?
If my guess is correct, you may have my information or photos on your phone, huh. "

"Detective, no offense intended, I don't know your identity."

"I'll give you another chance at last, so why are you following me?"

"I... am a detective. Someone hired me to investigate your situation. I have no personal enmity with you, nor will I pose any threat to you.

I apologize if I caused you any misunderstanding. "

"How to prove your identity?"

"I have a photo of the detective's license in my phone, you can check it."

The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that police need a search warrant to access a suspect's cell phone.

Of course, if the suspect agrees, the police can also check it.

Luke took out his mobile phone to check, saw his own photo, and also saw a detective license with his photo and personal information on it.

Bourne Detective Agency
detective, myron heath
"Who hired you to investigate me?"

"I do not know."

"Then I can only take you back to the police station."

"Wait, I can check for you.

Although I will not take the initiative to inquire about the identity of the employer, but I have his contact information, so I can find out his identity. "

"Why did he hire you to investigate me?"

"I don't know, he just asked me to collect as much information about you as possible."

"Have you seen him?"

"Yes, male, about 40 years old, believe me, he will definitely be able to find out about him."

Luke pulled off the fake beard on his mouth and took a photo of him, "I remember your identity, find out the identity of the employer before tonight, otherwise, it's better not to show up in Los Angeles, understand ?”

"I will definitely find out, can you let me go?" Myron Heath reassured.

Luke uncuffed his handcuffs, put his pistol and magazines in both sides of his trouser pockets, "Go forward, don't look back, let me see you again, and I'll shoot."

Myron Heath took a few steps and stopped, "I found out the identity of the employer, and we'll settle the matter."

"can."

"You can't tell him about it."

"That depends on my mood."

Luke was very upset about being followed, but he still had to eat.

Luke found a Sichuan restaurant and ordered four small dishes and a bottle of beer.

While eating, he thought about being followed.

There are two reasons for letting detective Myron Heath go. The first reason is that the other party did not cause any personal harm to him, and the possibility of being judged as assaulting the police is very small.

Luke has been observing him with micro-expressions, lying at first, but telling the truth later.

He is probably a detective who was hired to investigate Luke. To put it bluntly, he is just a tool, and it is useless to catch him.

Knowing that the other party is a detective, Luke is not afraid that he will run away.

If you can run, the monk can't run away from the temple.

Although detectives are legal, they will always touch some gray areas. No detective is willing to be targeted by the police. Not only can they not do their own business, but they may also be sent to prison.

After eating, Luke drove home, his mind was very stable.

He has a 'bullet avoidance card', not to mention being followed, even if someone shoots, he is not afraid.

What else is there to worry about?
In the afternoon, the bamboo and rattan chairs were delivered to the home, and Luke placed them directly in the small courtyard.

Clean the teapot and brew a pot of Tieguanyin.

Drinking tea leisurely, eating melon seeds and pistachios, life is just like this...

More than seven o'clock in the evening.

When Daisy came back, he had already prepared dinner.

Dinner is eaten in the courtyard.

Daisy looked at the bamboo and rattan table and chairs, "I bought this in Chinatown?"

"Do you remember?"

"Of course, I like this bamboo and rattan products very much, and you even gave me a bamboo vase."

"I wanted to take you there, but unfortunately you have to work overtime. Are you busy today?"

Daisy picked up the wine glass and touched Luke, "Carbin Portia's lawyer asked me to discuss a settlement."

(Carbine Portia: The thief who stole Luke Harley.)
"How was the talk?"

"It's not that good, he is only willing to pay five thousand dollars on the grounds that Cabin Portia doesn't have a proper job.

Cabin Portia spent more than 1 dollars to modify Harley, so how could he have no money?
We negotiated a compensation price, and he was only willing to pay $[-]. "

"It's going well." Luke only spent [-] dollars to buy the Harley, and now he can get [-] dollars in compensation, he already feels pretty good.

What's more, Harley's modification is not bad, he and Xiao Hei both like it.

Of course, he would rather that Xiao Hei didn't like it.

"No, absolutely not, there is still something to discuss about this case." Daisy was full of confidence.

"OK, you are a professional." Luke smiled. Naturally, the more compensation the better, he simply became the hands-off shopkeeper.

"Jingle Bell……"

Luke's cell phone rang, and he took out his cell phone to see that it was Myron Heath's number, "Hey, big detective, how's the investigation going?"

"I'll tell you the name of the employer? Let's settle the matter."

"of course."

"Avery Bruce."

"What does he do?"

"lawyer."

"Why is he investigating me?"

"I really do not know."

"You better not lie to me."

"What I said is true. I'm sorry for what happened today. I will never lie to you again."

"Good." Luke hung up the phone.

Daisy asked concerned, "What happened?"

"Do you know any lawyers in Los Angeles?"

"It's okay, what's the matter?"

"I want to inquire about someone, Avery Bruce."

Daisy frowned slightly, "What happened to him?"

"You know him?"

"I'm going to see him this afternoon, Cabin Portia's lawyer."

　There is something at home, so the update is late today.

　　Many book lovers feel that the protagonist has few skills and little golden fingers.

　　I have summarized several learning skills of the protagonist in this chapter.

　　Personal feeling ability is more comprehensive.

　　Of course, the protagonist's ability will be stronger in the future.

　　But growth requires a process, just like practicing marksmanship, step by step.

　　The book is still long, so don't worry.
