Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 184 A Family Should Always Be Together

The core of this human trafficking gang was a family known as Krassnig.

Now, the family patriarch was coming. He was the father of Marco, the guy whom Luke had killed.

Luke couldn’t help but chuckle. This family would soon be reunited in the other world!

That afternoon, two Benzs arrived and stopped in front of the apartment building.

Eight people got out of the cars, led by an old man with white hair and a long beard.

The old man wasn’t tall, but looked quite intimidating – this had to be the patriarch of the Krassnig family.

Spending the afternoon on the roof and enjoying coffee and croissants, Luke couldn’t be any more comfortable.

How had he brought hot coffee up here? By storing it in his personal space, of course.

It was also practice for him as he familiarized himself with the storage function of his personal space.

The patriarch left the apartment building, before returning again that evening. He didn’t seem particularly happy.

Luke wondered if he had seen the honeycomb that his son’s body had become. Did the man not like his son’s new style?

That night, Luke snuck into the apartment building again.

This operation was the same as last time, except that he had more people to deal with today.

Plus the patriarch, there were altogether fifteen armed gangsters in the building.

But they had lousy defenses. Luke eliminated them one by one, starting with their boss, who didn’t even carry a gun.

Luke didn’t use a gun because there were other residents in the building, and he didn’t know if they were related to the gangsters.

Besides, Luke didn’t want to create dozens of bodies in downtown Paris. So, he simply took care of the gangsters with guns and ignored the rest.

There was only one unarmed young man whom he killed.

The moment he saw the man, Luke thought he looked familiar.

A moment later, he recalled that this was the man who had chatted up Amanda and Kim at the cab stop outside the airport.

To make sure that he wasn’t mistaken, Luke asked him a “friendly” question instead of knocking him out.

This guy named Peter then confessed that he wandered around the airport and train stations searching for targets for his gang.

Luke nodded silently after hearing the answer.

A moment later, he had another sixty kilograms of trash in his personal space.

Apart from all the trash he accumulated, he put more than 100,000 euros in cash into his personal space.

He had found the money in a briefcase that the old man had been carrying. It was Luke’s, now.

The system notification popped up.

Mission: Eliminate the main members of the Krassnig group.

Total experience: 1,000. Total credit: 1,000.

Contribution rate: 100%. EXP +1,000. Credit +1,000.

It was a lot more than Luke had expected, probably because this gang was basically wiped out now that its boss was dead. So, Luke received a bonus for indirectly saving more girls who might’ve fallen victim to them in the future.

At half past eight, he flung out his grappling hook from the roof and crossed over the tops of several buildings before he took a subway back to the 17th arrondissement.

The rooms in the apartment building that he left behind were completely empty, as if the gangsters had never been there.

Elena was surprised at Luke’s early return. “You’re quite early today.”

Luke noticed that it was almost nine. It was indeed rather... early.

He said with a smile, “I’ve been busy with work for the last couple of days.”

Elena said, “You must watch yourself at night.”

Luke nodded. Going back to his room, he sat down and went back over tonight’s operation for possible flaws.

Half an hour later, he concluded his analysis in satisfaction and headed for the bathroom to take a shower.

Opening the bathroom door, Luke was stunned for a moment. He said, “Sorry. I’ll come back later.”

Elena had obviously just finished taking a shower in the bathroom, and was putting on a bathrobe.

Thankfully, she had covered the important parts, so it wasn’t an overly embarrassing encounter.

Elena’s face was red, not entirely because she had just taken a shower. “That’s fine. I’m already done.”

Luke said, “Thank you.”

Elena closed the door and dried her hair absentmindedly. All she could think of was Luke’s beautiful muscles!

Luke naturally wasn’t fully dressed since he had been planning to take a shower. He was only wearing a pair of shorts with a bath towel slung over his shoulder, revealing most of his pectorals and biceps.

That was the benefit of investing stats points in Strength.

If he had invested them in Dexterity or Mental Strength, could he have made a girl trip over herself at the sight of his naked body?

Luke didn’t really pay attention to Elena’s unusual behavior.

Like any other art student, the girl tended to be absentminded, and her eyes glittered now and then.

What Luke didn’t know was that it wasn’t because she was an art student, but because she was attracted to him.

When he woke up the next morning, Elena had already gone out.

Luke brushed his teeth, only to be surprised to see a certain girl’s underwear in the bathroom.

There was no telling whether she had forgotten to take it with her because she was used to female roommates, or she had been in too much of a hurry that morning.

Taking a walk, Luke went to the coffee shop and ordered some food.

He was enjoying the food, when he heard a familiar female voice. “Hey, Luke.”

Luke raised his head with a smile. “Elena, can I buy you some food? I haven’t thanked you for opening the door for me every day.”

Carrying the easel, Elena hesitated for a moment, but still sat down. “We can eat together, but I’ll pay for my own food.”

Luke thought for a moment before he said, “Okay. Your help definitely isn’t this cheap. I’ll buy you a decent dinner someday.”

Elena shook his head quickly. “No, no, that would be too wasteful.”

But feeling that her words might be taken the wrong way, she added, “I mean, opening the door isn’t a big deal. You don’t have to spend a lot of money on dinner to thank me for that.”

Luke nodded thoughtfully. “Alright. Then, please wait until I come up with a good reason.”

Elena nodded with a smile. “Take your time.”

Elena soon ordered today’s specialty, which was only worth a dozen euros.

Looking at the tiny food portion, Luke couldn’t help but ask, “Isn’t that too little?”

Elena looked at the food on the table, most of which belonged to Luke, and smiled. “Yes, of course. I may put on weight if I eat too much, though, particularly on my waist and... well, my legs.”

Luke chuckled.

He knew which part Elena really meant.

Based on his own observation, that part of her body was indeed plush.

Elena blushed slightly, as if she knew that Luke had guessed what she had been about to say.
