Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 483 Voracious is Hard to Trick and Is a Blabbermouth

On the other side, Selina had a huge amount of delicious food next to her as she basked in the sun.

Even better, alien dog head Voracious couldn’t steal any of it for the next two hours as punishment by Luke.

Luke was sitting on the fishing platform at the back with his legs crossed leisurely. Utterly content, he held a tablet and looked at the fishing pole every once in a while.

When it couldn’t wheedle any food out of Selina, Dollar ran back and lay down next to Luke obediently. It suddenly scratched his pants while it stared at the fishing line.

Luke didn’t even bother to look. He grabbed the fishing pole and pulled without the least bit of finesse, and a fish came flying over to land directly at his feet.

Quick Reflex plus Basic Roping was practically cheating.

Dollar was fast enough to press down on the fish with one paw, and it started whining.

Luke was bemused when he saw the dog’s expression. “Do you want it?”

Dollar continued whining.

Luke was amused. “Fine, you can have the fish, but are you sure you can digest it?”

Dollar opened its big mouth.

The twenty-centimeter-long fish disappeared into the big mouth.

A moment later, an empty fish hook was spat out.

Luke held his forehead. “Fine, you’re smart, alright?”

He had just been teasing Voracious; if it did anything that wasn’t dog-like, he would teach it another lesson.

For the sake of food, however, this guy remembered the rules very clearly.

It just needed to use Dollar’s black button eyes and whine to express that it wanted to eat, which was a normal dog reaction.

“The fish bones aren’t a problem?” Luke was still a little worried.

But looking at Dollar’s cute little expression, he sighed helplessly. “Fine, there won’t be any problems as long as you remain silent, alright?”

Dollar flopped down resolutely and didn’t look at him anymore.

Luke scratched his head. This guy learned quickly; it was much harder to trick than Selina!

How could a glutton be so smart when food was involved?

Luke teased the alien dog head with a fish every now and then before letting it chow down on it, and forty minutes went by like this before the forensic team finally arrived.

Luke was amused when he saw them. “Ha, Benny, Gitte, aren’t you late?”

“Our boat was late. It’s not like we could swim here, right?” said Gitte.

They looked at Selina who was sunbathing in a bikini on the front deck, and Luke who was in a Hawaiian shirt and shorts at the back, and familiar jealousy welled up in their hearts again.

Benny couldn’t help but ask, “Hey, why are the two of you always able to find new fun every time we see you? Are we not working the same case?”

Gitte nodded too. “That’s right. You were also enjoying the sun in the wild last time, and this time, you even have a boat. Do you want us to die of jealousy? We don’t see the sun most of the time in the forensics department; I think mushrooms are growing in my hair.” These two were the old acquaintances who had worked overtime with Luke and Selina on the beach female corpse case.

Hearing that, Luke said with a smile, “I didn’t want this either. We were out for fun, but we ran into those shooters. It’s not like we could just let them shoot us, right?”

Both forensic scientists rolled their eyes.

As forensic scientists and professional body collectors, the number of criminal bodies that had passed through their hands thanks to Luke were in the double digits.

They were well aware of Luke’s combat ability, such as in the Nakatomi Plaza robbery.

While LAPD never admitted that the detective who cracked the Nakatomi Plaza robbery case was one of their guys, the two forensic scientists weren’t idiots.

Considering Luke’s combat ability and the speed at which he delivered bodies to the forensics department, the answer was obvious.

Of course, they wouldn’t say anything to anybody else.

It wasn’t necessarily a good thing to know the secrets of these sorts of people. If gang accomplices learned that some forensic scientist might know the real identity of some annoying detective, they might drop by for a chat with the forensic scientist.

Who knew if the criminals would let them go even if they confessed everything.

After all, most of the gangsters whom Luke killed were very brutal.

After some small talk, the two forensic scientists got to work.

Looking at the four floating bodies, Benny asked, “How long have they been in the water?”

Luke didn’t think much of it. “About an hour.”

Benny and Gitte both sweated. “Fine, it looks like we don’t need to try and save them.”

Luke curled his lip.

Save them? The only reason he didn’t shoot them was because the system notified him that they were dead.

He had been entrusted with a task, he certainly had to do it well.

These people who had their eye on Margaret had to die.

Benny and Gitte only worked for half an hour before they were done and went back.

Apart from the four bodies, their boat had already broken up and sunk to the bottom of the ocean; it was impossible to salvage it.

Luke also gave them the details of the case. All they needed to confirm was that the bullets which killed the two criminals were from his gun.

When it came to Luke, their higher-ups had already told them earlier on not to dig too much into his cases.

In fact, Internal Affairs had wanted to investigate Luke’s cases many times.

There was a lot of suspicion in the Internal Affairs Division of Luke using excessive force and abusing power.

But they couldn’t run an investigation.

They ran into tough resistance from Elsa and Dustin who, as Luke’s direct superiors, strongly opposed the investigation for one simple reason.

Luke’s team was the most efficient at cracking cases in Westside’s Major Crimes Division.

And even without the data from other Major Crimes Divisions, Elsa and Dustin were certain that Luke and Selina held the record for the most number of cases cracked in the whole of Los Angeles.

An Internal Affairs investigation wasn’t a good thing.

Even if the detective was clean, it would still affect them.

It was like a student getting good grades in their exams, and a teacher sending people over daily to see if they were cheating – how could a student not be affected by this? Would they be able to do as well in the next exam?

Thus, unless Internal Affairs had ironclad evidence, Elsa and Dustin would never give in.

In the Major Crimes Division, a boss who couldn’t defend their subordinates could be easily replaced.

Besides, Dustin had Director Brad on his side.

Deputy Director Condra, who owed Luke a small favor, might not help out much, but he also wouldn’t agree with anyone who wanted to give Luke a hard time.So, Luke was quite safe and relaxed in his current position in the department.

He and Selina didn’t return on the boat until sunset.

At midnight, Luke snuck out of the house again.

Voracious raised its head and looked in the direction Luke had left, before it whispered to Selina, “He’s gone.”

Selina mumbled and rolled over to continue sleeping.

Voracious said, “He might be out looking for other women. Aren’t you worried?”

Selina pried her eyes open a little. “No, because he wouldn’t bother being sneaky about it.”

Voracious was at a loss. “What do you mean?”
