Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 747: The Lousy Ad for The Colin Show

Luke caused the two brothers Henry and Wolf to go missing at the very beginning. Their partner Alex also failed multiple times to escape. Then, Luke stopped them from killing Jennifer, before he finally charged into their nest to wipe them out.

The “fate” tying them together was finally over.

Sheldon wanted to establish an immortal family, but his plan for “grand dominance” was destroyed early.

Only Dylan was still alive, but Luke had turned him into a vampire servant.

And vampires couldn’t have children.

This was the complete end of Sheldon’s family.

If Dylan and Alex, two newly created vampires, fell into the hands of Hydra from SHIELD, it would only be even more tragic.

If Hydra wanted to recruit these people as its minions, that was exactly what Luke wanted.

These people were bait that he had thrown out.

Luke would then be able to follow the trail back to whoever swallowed them.

Thinking about Hydra, where cutting off one head meant two growing to take its place, this was absolutely a first-class Chinese leek of experience points, enough for him to harvest diligently for eight to ten years.

As for the people in the stone castle, they had all participated in the cult’s ritual and were accomplices even if they hadn’t killed anyone themselves. They also had a lot of information on vampires.

It was impossible to make them disappear. Many of them were Elsworth family members.

Sheldon’s branch of the family was gone, but the other branches wouldn’t accept the fact that dozens of their own family members had gone missing. They would definitely investigate the matter.

Luke’s previous actions had been to draw the authorities into the picture so that they could clean up the Elsworths’ forces.

Now, it was up to SHIELD to deal with the aftermath.

In this operation against the Elsworths, Luke had earned more than a thousand experience and credit points from the first two batches of hitmen he had captured.

Destroying Sheldom gave him more than 3,000 experience and credit points.

Host’s experience: 60,580/90,000

Credit: 49,080

Looking at the numbers, he felt that the two nights of hard work were completely worth it.

...

Jennifer and Dustin were talking in the ward, and Luke and Selina didn’t disturb them.

“Boss, we’re going to work first. Just let Dustin know that we were here,” Luke said to Elsa.

Elsa was exhausted. “Okay.”

“Take a break if you have time. It’s safe here for now,” Luke said.

Elsa nodded.

They specialized in different things.

Luke was better at dealing with emergencies, and Elsa was the professional when it came to arranging the finer details of hiding a person.

Naturally, she wouldn’t let him handle this sort of clean-up. He had already done enough.

Luke couldn’t tell her that the Elsworths could no longer protect themselves, so no one would come after Jennifer anymore.

Several vampires and a large number of cult members from the Elsworth family had fallen into the hands of SHIELD, which was even more damaging than the paper evidence which Jennifer had.

The Elsworths couldn’t clean up their mess even if they wanted to.

The truth was that it was Jennifer who had first alarmed the Elsworths.

For Dustin’s sake, Luke hadn’t prodded her along in her investigation, in case she found evidence and was killed.

Who knew that Dustin, that lecherous old man, would help her out? In the end, Jennifer didn’t escape the fate of being found.

Thankfully, Jennifer escaped with her life, and Dustin, a lonely middle-aged man, saved the damsel in distress. The Elsworths had suffered a great defeat, and the outcome was perfect.

...

On the third day after the earthquake, Los Angeles was still in chaos.

But the city was on the way to recovery.

Professor Lawrence Hayes became the country’s top earthquake specialist overnight.

After he became famous, he didn’t get carried away. Instead, he became even more cautious.

As a prominent representative of the field, he was still committed.

When Luke called him, the professor’s personal speculation was that an earthquake of this scale wouldn’t happen again, but smaller ones might happen in the future.

He would reconfirm this result again before saying anything, but he might never announce it on TV again.

After all, even if he had predicted two earthquakes in a row, that didn’t mean that he would always be right again in the future.

Given his current reputation, one wrong guess would result in far worse consequences.

Jenny called him. “We’re about to start promoting the cellphones. Do you have any suggestions?”

Luke found that odd. “Isn’t that your specialty? Why are you asking me?”

Jenny asked, “Did you say that you know Sheerah?”

Luke thought for a moment. “We’re acquainted.”

Jenny said, “Let her be the first spokesperson for the Titanium phone. How does that sound?”

Luke said, “She doesn’t seem to have enough influence right now. Didn’t you say that we have to look for the most popular young female idols to endorse the phone and attract a young crowd?”

Jenny said, “Mm, I wouldn’t have considered her before, but she should become a hot topic for the young crowd soon.”

Luke: “What?”

Jenny asked, “Don’t you watch TV? The ad for The Colin Show has been airing for two days.”

Luke immediately got it. “That lousy ad about meeting Batman?”

Jenny said, “...It is a little lousy, but it’s big news that Batman is on The Colin Show, okay? Also, Batman was Sheerah’s special guest. Do you know how many young people are waiting to see Batman’s interview? Once the show airs, her net worth will probably skyrocket.”

Luke said, “Fine. When you contact her, you can say that I was the one who introduced you to her, but business is business. I don’t care what the final price is.”

Jenny said, “That’s all. Bye.” She hung up.

Luke: “...” So you just called me for an introduction?

What he didn’t know was that Sheerah had become popular again in the last two days.

Luke hadn’t noticed because he usually watched the news after the smart program filtered things out. He rarely paid attention to ads.

Besides, he already knew that Batman was going to be on The Colin Show, so he didn’t think anything of the ad at all.

Now that Jenny had brought it up, he finally realized what was going on.

As the first person to be interviewed on the same stage as Batman, how could Sheerah not be popular?

Many people would want to know how she had invited Batman to be her special guest.

Attention was a celebrity’s life force.

This was even more so for most singers.

Most of the time, the songs were there, but for the audience to listen to them, the singer’s name had to be remembered.

Sheerah would be famous for another year or two.

For someone who had just turned thirty, this was undoubtedly a God-given opportunity, and she might be able to transform herself in passing.

These thoughts only lingered in Luke’s mind for a few seconds before he tossed them aside.

How much longer Sheerah’s popularity could last had nothing to do with him.

She was the one who had done the interview. When Luke saved her before, he had pulled a prank on her and almost scared her into peeing her pants; it was understandable that he would help her out in passing
