Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 302 A Quick Change, and a Request For Reinforcements

A little panicked, Samantha subconsciously asked, “What place is safe?”

Luke reminded her, “Buildings with entrances and exits that can be locked easily. Also, they have to be made of concrete. Wooden houses won’t stop the spiders.”

Samantha said, “What? Let me see... Right, the shopping center! The shopping center that the mayor put up is very solid.”

Luke said, “That’s good. Also, we may have to show our badges when we rescue the residents. You won’t mind, will you?”

Samantha said without hesitation, “Not at all. I give you permission to use weapons in order to ensure the safety of the residents.”

Luke said, “Okay, stay in touch, and contact me if anything goes wrong.” He then hung up the phone.

They left the fast food restaurant for their car.

There was only a last bit of dying light in the west. It was already dusk in the town.

When Luke had been on the phone, Selina had already retrieved two bulletproof vests from the car. She put on one and clipped on the magazines and other equipment on it.

After Luke ended the call, Selina tossed him the other bulletproof vest.

Luke had made these bulletproof vests himself. All sorts of useful gadgets could be clipped onto them, and they didn’t carry the LAPD sign.

As Luke put on the bulletproof vest, Selina threw him an M4A1, then picked up a Benelli M1014 and two clips.

Luke caught the M4A1 with one hand and the tactical backpack that Selina threw at him next with the other.

He unzipped the backpack and took out the clips that were inside. He then clipped the tear gas grenades to his vest as well.

Selina was also completely fitted out at almost the same time.

They then took out their badges and hung them on a special metal chain around their necks.

The entire process took less than two minutes.

Luke said, “Follow me. Watch your back and above you.” He then started running.

He was fast but not sloppy.

In a rescue, he also had to ensure his own safety. It would be a joke if he got himself in danger.

The other customers in the fast food restaurant were dumbfounded. What was going on? Why did a young couple suddenly turn into two awesome police officers?

No one would mistake them for criminals. After all, they were all very familiar with the typical way that police officers wore their badges.

There were only two sheriffs in town, and the people here had been feeling anxious recently. So, it wasn’t unusual that the sheriffs would look for outside help.

The curious customers walked to the windows and watched the two running officers, wondering what they were doing.

Luke and Selina soon ran to a house fifty meters away. They shouted “Police!” and kicked their way in.

A horrified old man inside was crying for help. “Help! There’s a monster inside! A huge monster!”

Luke simply waved his hand at the old man to back away. He then changed positions and aimed at the door.

An enormous spider with a body bigger than a basin and with legs that could wrap around a man appeared.

Bang! Bang! The head of the spider exploded, and its body knocked down a lot of things when it collapsed. Luke quickly walked into the room and kicked away the body of the spider that was twitching. He then took out a jack knife to cut open a human-shaped cocoon on a chair.

Inside was an old woman who took deep breaths and started coughing.

Luke didn’t waste time talking and simply picked up the old woman. “Do you have a gun? If you do, take it with you, and drive her to the mayor’s shopping center. If you see any spiders on the road, don’t stop, and just ram into them, got it?”

He was talking to the old man.

The old man could only nod blankly. He finally came back to himself when he saw the two fully armed individuals take his wife out of the house. He hurriedly took out a shotgun from a cupboard and several boxes of bullets, then grabbed the car key from a side table and followed them out.

Luke and Selina put the old woman in the car and watched the old couple drive off.

With his sharp ears, Luke could already hear unusual noises in many parts of the town.

There were cries of fear, the sound of barking, and the occasional gunshot.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at the mountain in the east, only to see faint black spots jumping their way over.

That was where the mines were located.

Luke dialed another number. He ran as he waited for someone to pick up the phone. He didn’t wait for long. A man said calmly, “Detective Luke, it’s been a while. Is there anything I can help you with?”

Luke had already killed another giant spider in another house further away. Pulling a hysterical, middle-aged woman out and throwing her to Selina, he said, “Hello, Captain Wales. I’m in Boom Town in Arizona. I believe you’d be interested in the fact that a huge number of giant spiders have appeared here.”

The man immediately asked, “What giant spiders?”

Luke raised his hand and fired as he sent flying a spider that had just been about to sneak up on Selina. It dropped to the ground in a burst of disgusting fluid.

As calm as ever, Luke said, “Those I’ve killed are thirty to fifty centimeters long, not including their legs. Each of them can hunt down a human being on their own, and they’re now hunting the residents here. I’ll send you pictures. You have to take action right now.”

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Selina opened fire decisively, and another giant spider that scuttled out from the side exploded with a splatter of that disgusting greenish black fluid.

Wales said, “Hang in there. I’ll send you reinforcements right away. Stay in touch.” He then hung up the phone.Luke relaxed a little.

S.H.I.E.L.D. was quicker to respond to a crisis than the real FBI.

The twenty spiders he saw were valid enough evidence for him to call for reinforcements.

While thinking this, he took out his fake phone and sent Captain Wales several photos of the spiders, both dead and alive.

He then quickly recorded an announcement with his fake phone and played it on a loop before putting it back into his chest pocket.

“Attention, everyone. Giant spiders have appeared in town and are attacking people. If your house is solid and can be sealed off, please stay inside and wait for assistance. Otherwise, please leave as soon as possible and drive to the new shopping center, where you will find Sheriff Samantha. Bring whatever weapons and ammunition you can find. On your way there, don’t stop, and don’t let any sudden appearance of the spiders on the road stop you.”

This way, he and Selina wouldn’t have to waste time repeating their explanations when they rescued people.

Selina was relieved as well. She really didn’t know how to comfort those residents who were almost scared witless.
