Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 1209: Plan, Hit at the Peak, and New Ability

However, Elsa and Elizabeth were more restrained tonight.

Getting wildly drunk could wait until after they talked to Luke about the current situation and had supper.

A lot had happened in New York recently, and NYPD had to handle many things.

More importantly, the commissioner seemed old and slow to react. Law and order in New York had deteriorated recently, but no new measures had been put in place.

The New York mayor’s term was coming to an end, and several bigshots had expressed strong interest in this position.

It was very common for the new mayor to replace the old NYPD commissioner. As the First Deputy Commissioner, Brad would have a chance to take office.

When Elsa mentioned this during supper, Selina couldn’t help but glance at Luke, as if to ask whether they should “lend a hand.”

Luke shook his head and chuckled.

Selina knew that things weren’t that simple.

In fact, if Brad really became the commissioner, would he be pulled down in a year?

The major events in New York recently were more or less related to Luke.

Although he didn’t have any sort of three to five-year plan or whatever, he still had some small targets for this year.

Truly, no one knew how many unexpected situations NYPD would have to mop up during this time.

If Brad really did climb up, it was very likely that he would be hit at the peak; it was hard to say whether the position would be a good or bad thing for him.

But who cared?

Dustin might care, but for the time being, he had no power to affect the bigshots’ attitudes.

Although Luke had ways to influence these people, he wasn’t interested in using his own resources to protect Deputy Commissioner Brad, whom he had never met.

It was like how most people were willing to help an old friend, but might not necessarily be willing to help a “friend of a friend” whom they didn’t know at all.

Luke had always had the typical attitude of a citizen — a bigshot’s fate had nothing to do with him at all.

What happened to Deputy Commissioner Brad wouldn’t affect Dustin.

Even if the Deputy Commissioner fell, Luke could use his own strength to protect Dustin’s position.

After all, his immediate boss was someone who directly affected the quality of his work and life, and was also his friend.

Pondering for a moment, he made a decision: He had to slowly wash away the “brand” on Dustin. At the very least, Luke couldn’t let people think that Dustin was relying completely on Deputy Commissioner Brad.

It wasn’t a simple operation, but it wouldn’t be too hard for a big capitalist like Jenny to handle.

Being a CEO satisfied Jenny’s inner desires; as a secretary, she was naturally responsible for meeting Luke’s practical needs.

Titanium Phone Company needed to increase its influence with NYPD.

Turning Dustin into a “connection” between the phone company and a board member of Stark Industries would kill two birds with one stone.

Otherwise, if something happened in New York and nobody could fix it, it would be too embarrassing for the number one phone company in the world.

The four of them spent an hour eating and chatting before Luke tactfully got up and went downstairs, saying that he was going to work on restoring an old car.

When he went downstairs, he pointed upward without hesitation in a sign for the dog head who had followed him to go back and watch over the three women who liked to get drunk.

Gold Nugget resentfully turned around and went upstairs with its tail between its legs. It cursed in its heart:?Do you think you’re the only one who can’t stand how crazy they get after drinking? Even my dog eyes can’t take it!

But the dog head didn’t have the final say. It could only slink back and watch the next episode of the drunk women’s crack show in a corner with its earphones on.

Luke wasn’t deliberately torturing the dog; it was just that there was still a girl in Space 2 that he had to deal with.

He sat down in a chair on the first floor and closed his eyes.

At the same time, his clone returned to the villa and took off its armor. After cleaning up, it entered the underground lab.

With a thought, the girl in Space 2 was released, and Osiris, the medical A.I., was released as well. Luke began to examine the girl and back up the data.

He had just started to examine the information in the system, when –

System:?You have defeated Tandy Bowen and have received a list of her abilities.

Tandy Bowen’s abilities: Elementary Light of Life (Prerequisites: 40 Strength, 20 Mental Strength, 10,000 Credit. Partially available), Light Dagger (unavailable).

Luke was silent for a long whale after reading the message.

Actually, when he had knocked out this girl called Tandy Bowen, his heart had jumped several times.

Thanks to his willpower and in an effort to restrain his mood, he suppressed the urge to do research immediately, and went back to pick Selina up.

Then, he extended an invitation to Elsa and Elizabeth at the police department, and went home to cook and have supper.

It wasn’t until this moment that he could study this new ability with a calm mindset.

Actually, he had captured this little girl not because she had injured that hoodlum.

On the contrary, Luke would’ve knocked the five hoodlums out hard on the spot if the girl had been the one injured.

Tandy had been the victim in the alley, but she was also the little thief who had stolen the diamond necklace.

Luke didn’t know why she had been stopped by hooligans in that area.

The two of them had entered the alley from different directions, and it wasn’t until Luke got closer that he realized that Tandy was the suspect in the theft.

By the time he arrived, she had already stabbed the hoodlum with a dagger, and things were getting messy.

Thinking quickly, Luke had swiftly decided to help her clean up.

He wasn’t a two-faced person who abhorred evil on the surface but was actually twisted inside.

Sending her to the police department for theft was equivalent to putting her on the examination table of some secret agency.

He couldn’t do something that was actually an “atrocity” under the guise of “justice.”

For this little female thief, Tandy, Luke felt that letting the “wizard” come out once again to give her closed training for several months was a suitable punishment.

He had his grandpa Drax, Robert, Catherine, his sister Claire, his brother Joseph, and his loyal teammate Selina.

His family and job were flourishing, and he led a comfortable life. He didn’t want to turn into someone like that Uncle Frank, who killed anyone he caught.

He also didn’t want to be like Mr. Wayne, who blamed himself for everything, since that would make him go crazy even quicker.

For the people he cared about, he had to be more normal.

He couldn’t assume that with superpowers, he could save the world.

He couldn’t assume that with superpowers, he could kill all the bad guys.

He couldn’t assume that with superpowers, it was his responsibility to punish all sins.

In short, one shouldn’t feel lowly, nor arrogant.

If he wasn’t sure of his own heart, he, who was getting stronger day by day, would only cause more destruction in this world.

As the thoughts rolled around in his mind, he learned Tandy’s Elementary Light of Life.
