Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 261 Old Acquaintances From the FBI

Luke smiled and said, “Thanks, boss.”

Dustin must’ve done something to obtain this privilege for him.

Luke was free to say whatever he wanted in his territory, and the FBI wouldn’t get to play any tricks.

A good boss always defended their subordinates in crucial moments.

Dustin waved his hand. “You work for the Major Crimes Division; of course we’ve got your back. That’s all for now. Don’t take any cases in the next few days.”

Luke knew that Dustin was scared that they would be ambushed by Bullseye while investigating a case.

He simply nodded and said, “Okay, we’re leaving.”

Dustin nodded, and Elsa left with them.

Just like how Dustin supported Luke in front of the director, Elsa being in Dustin’s office was also meant to show Dustin that she fully supported Luke.

She was also making her position clear to Luke and Selina.

Elsa took them to an inquiry room, where three FBI agents were waiting.

Luke and Selina were both amused to see them. “Oh, it’s been a long time, Agent Charles and... Captain Wales?”

The FBI agents responded with smiles. They remembered Luke when they read his file.

Elsa was slightly stumped. “Do you know each other?”

Luke said with a smile, “We met Captain Wales back in Houston.”

Since they knew each other, the meeting went a lot smoother.

Luke had nothing to hide. He explained last night’s case as well as the donut store case to illustrate Bullseye’s abilities.

An hour later, Captain Wales stretched out his hand. “Thank you for your cooperation, Luke and Selina.”

Luke shook hands with him. “You’re too kind. I also hope the guy will be caught sooner rather than later. He’s too dangerous.”

Wales shook his head with a bitter smile but didn’t say anything.

If Bullseye was so easy to catch, he would’ve been thrown into the prison for special criminals a long time ago.

Besides, Bullseye always attacked from dark corners at long range; it was hard to say how many cases were his handiwork.

It was truly difficult to capture Bullseye in a big city full of skyscrapers and people.

After seeing Captain Wales and Agent Charles, everybody returned to Elsa’s office.

After Selina closed the door, Elsa sighed. “Why does this keep happening to you?”

Luke asked, “Are you willing to give me a vacation, Elsa?”

Elsa said, “You had a trip to New York and another one to Paris. Then, you visited Las Vegas and Woodsburg. Now, I have to give you yet another vacation.”

Luke shrugged. “I didn’t really ask for it.”

Elsa said, “Fine. By the way, the application was approved; two rookies will be starting in a day or two. You can train them if you’re free in the next few days.”

Luke said, “Alright, just have them come look for us.”

Elsa said, “Fine, off you go – leave me to my exhaustion in my office.” She sounded rather despairing

But could she blame Luke?

Of course not.

Luke was definitely more likely than other detectives to run into these sorts of situations because of his capability.

If he wasn’t such a capable fighter, Roger wouldn’t have asked for his help, and there wouldn’t have been any trouble.

However, if Luke hadn’t gone in as backup, Roger and his partner could’ve ended up in the morgue.

It was the greatest news in the Major Crimes Division when nobody died on a case.

As they left the department and headed for their car, Selina said, “I should probably share some of the tiramisu with Elsa. It’s almost noon, anyway.”

Luke knew that Selina was only taking pity on Elsa, who was so busy. “Go on, then. I’ll wait for you.”

Selina generously gave Elsa a large portion of the tiramisu, before she and Luke returned home.

The next three days passed without incident, except that Luke went out one night to retrieve goods.

The goods were the materials which Damon had acquired for him.

The materials sped up Luke’s progress in making the equipment.

Damon had bought almost half of the materials on his list, and there was enough to last Luke for quite a while.

Luke even made himself a new phone when he was free.

After testing it out for a day, he called Jenny. “Hey, how’ve you been?”

Jenny was surprised to receive his call. “Are you free?”

Luke said helplessly, “I’m in the middle of something and can’t meet you yet.”

Jenny was disappointed. “Okay. Is there anything I can do for you?”

Luke said, “Our company is getting new business. You need to go with my useless PR manager and talk to Google.”

Jenny: “Huh?”

Luke: “That guy has been contacting Google, but hasn’t even been able to see one of their senior managers, so I can only count on you.”

Jenny: “...I’ll try.”

Luke said, “I’ll give the necessary things to Bobby, my PR manager. Just contact him.”

Jenny: “Mr. CEO, are you really not going to inspect your company once?”

Luke smiled bitterly. Of course he wanted to! But he didn’t know if Bullseye was gone yet. That man had no scruples.

“I’m occupied with a case. I’ll come look for you when it’s over,” said Luke.

Then, he met Bobby at the police department and gave him the new phone he made as well as the navigation app. He also told Bobby about Jenny.After a long hesitation, Bobby said, “I’m not qualified for the job you gave me. I’m thinking about quitting.”

Luke waved his hand. “Don’t. You’ve been doing a great job.”

Bobby was confused. “Huh?” Getting nothing done was doing a great job?

Luke said, “You’ve never done PR before. It’s already good enough that you found out why they aren’t interested in the navigation map. Even Jenny might be unable to make a deal with them, but we have to try. Just do your best to help her.”

Bobby asked, “How should I help her?”

Luke looked at him. “You haven’t forgotten your ability, have you? Don’t tell me that you haven’t made any progress.”

Bobby hesitated, then nodded. “I’m a little better at it now, but I can only sense someone else’s emotions vaguely. I don’t see how that can be useful.”

Luke said, “That’s enough. It’ll become more useful as long as you keep practicing it. All you need to do is tell Jenny what the guys handling the negotiation are feeling, got it?”
