Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 256 Welcome, and Take the Blame

It wouldn’t be too hard for him to master quick draw with more practice.

After all, Bob Munden was an old man who wasn’t half as strong and as agile as Luke, but the man could still draw his gun astonishingly fast.

Luke had much more Strength and Dexterity, and he wasn’t new to guns. It would be weird if he couldn’t grasp quick draw.

He was using a revolver, which was a gun necessary for practicing quick draw.

He had a modified revolver in his inventory, but he couldn’t use that Smith & Wesson M500 in public. Also, its barrel had been lengthened, which made it unsuitable for quick draw.

The essence of quick draw was speed and precision. Thus, a common revolver was more suitable for practice.

With his ten-fold Strength and his Elementary Self-Healing, his hands didn’t get sore at all.

With his cheat, Luke began to burn through guns as training.

He stopped to analyze the flaws in his movements every now and then before he continued. He was also able to reload his gun much quicker than other people.

It wasn’t until an hour later that he finally stopped, satisfied.

He tried a dozen revolver models of varying caliber, and some of them overheated while he was shooting

Luke was very satisfied.

After an hour of practice, he had more or less picked up quick draw.

With his Strength and Dexterity, he was fast and ruthless at shooting inside a range of ten meters.

Most of the time, an officer’s combat range with a pistol was twenty meters, and their precision would decrease sharply beyond this range. Luke was practicing quick draw primarily as part of his identity as a police officer, so precision within a range of ten meters was good enough for now.

More practice with quick draw later would help him further improve the speed and range of his shooting

Selina had been dutifully shooting pistols with earmuffs on.

Focused on her training, Selina didn’t talk to Luke. It wasn’t until she used up the bullets in her magazine that Luke patted her shoulder and indicated that it was time to leave.

After they returned home, Selina took a thirty-minute break before starting on the exercise regime which Luke had drawn up for her.

The house had five extra rooms, so they converted two adjoining rooms into a gym and a training room.

Luke went to the garage workshop and began creating new equipment for Damon and Mindy.

Most of the raw materials hadn’t been delivered yet, so he was only working with whatever he had on hand.

Also, the items he was making for them were experimental products, and he was expecting them to give him feedback.

Of course, that meant that there were risks in using this equipment, but the risks certainly wouldn’t be as high as if Damon and Mindy went on missions without the equipment.

Luke worked until it turned dark outside.

By the time he finished, Selina was exhausted and lying on the couch as she went through the training plan that Luke had drafted out for her.

The plan was rather flexible. She only needed to know what aspects she had to work on, and she could decide when to undertake the training herself.

“I’m done with training. I’m waiting for your dinner.” She gave Luke a quick glance before she continued reading the documents.

“You seem rather energetic.” Luke chuckled and began to make dinner while Selina rolled her eyes.

Now that both of them were busy, Luke dropped the complicated dishes that he had cooked before, and instead made simple but delicious food.

Selina was always satisfied as long as the food was delicious.

While they were eating, Selina’s phone rang.

Her mouth full of food, her expression indicated that Luke should pick up.

Luke looked at the caller ID and picked up the phone. “Hi, Roger. What’s up?”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He heard gunshots.

“F*ck!” Roger cursed and said hastily, “Luke, we’ve run into some trouble regarding the donut store case. Can you drop by?”

Luke asked, “Where are you?”

“West 35th Street near USC,” said Roger. “Copy that.” Luke rose and left with Selina, who was already wiping her mouth.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the location, and easily found a gathering of police

cars.

They squeezed their way through with their badges and went over to Roger. “What happened?”

Roger looked at them and said, “Someone was here to kill the lawyer, but luckily, he escaped. Now, the criminal is hiding in the building with hostages.”

This lawyer was truly lucky to escape death twice! Luke said, “You didn’t call for SWAT?”

Roger said, “A SWAT team went in earlier, but the criminal set off a bomb and injured multiple agents.”

Luke raised an eyebrow. “So vicious?”

Generally speaking, officers and criminals in big cities had a tacit agreement where they would only use firearms as weapons, and would retreat if they didn’t hit the enemy.

Not every officer was willing to sacrifice themselves for their job; at least, Luke wasn’t.

Roger quickly gave them a rundown of the situation.

Now, two criminals were in the building with two hostages.

But the tricky thing was that the criminals had detonated a bomb, and there was no telling how many more bombs they had.Even more troublesome was the fact that there were a lot more residents in this six-story apartment building who were stuck inside their homes.

If the police were to press the assault, the criminals might slaughter the residents in the building in their agitation, and the police would certainly be blamed for it.

Luke was lost for words. So, you got me to come over to share the blame with you?

Roger, however, didn’t feel guilty. “Is there anything you can do? I know that you’re the best fighter in the LAPD, so you’re the only person I can ask for help.”

Ignoring Roger’s flattery, Luke simply asked, “Where’s Martin?”

Roger said bitterly, “He’s observing the environment and preparing to kill those two criminals if he can.”

Luke knew that Martin was a great shot, but his strategy wasn’t a guaranteed success.

If one of the criminals survived, and detonated the explosives, Martin would definitely be punished. Luke thought for a moment before he said, “Alright, we’ll put on bulletproof vests before we go in.” He then led Selina to his car.
