Chapter 4 Thanks for the flat tire

  Luke walked out of the office, a black man standing by the water dispenser looked at him with an weird expression.

  The black man's name is Marcus, who is a famous big mouth in the police department. "Wow, I seem to hear that someone is going to be transferred? It's not you isn't ?"

  "You heard it wrong."

  Marcus used his own rap rhythm accent and asked, "Yeah, if I were you I wouldn't admit it either, I would have secretly packed up my stuffs and left quietly."

  Luke glanced at the office and walked to a far place, "It's the captain who's going to be transferred."

  Vice Team Vincent asked, "Captain said that herself?"

  Luke nodded. "Of course, the captain wants me to take her place."

  "Hehe..." Marcus let out a sneer, "Are you kidding me? I'm better than you. More qualified to be the captain."

  Luke said seriously, "I thought so too, so I recommended you to Captain Susan."

  Marcus asked subconsciously, "What did the captain say?"

  Luke imitated Susan with a serious expression. In her tone of voice, he shouted, "Shut up, immediately disappeared from my eyes. then I came out."

  Marcus was stunned and he didn't respond for a while.

  Deputy Team Vincent shook his head, "Marcus, you've been tricked."

  "Haha..." The other colleagues all laughed.

  By the time Marcus figure it out, Luke had already returned to his place.

  During this period of time, he was indeed a little sluggish, for a multiple number of reasons.

  As Chinese policeman who become a Los Angeles police detective he needed to learn and adapt to many places. Culture, life, work, mentality, environment...

It was not an easy thing to do.

  Luke has also read many time-travel novels before, but never understood how those protagonists can quickly adapt to their identities after crossing, and even act better than the original owner of the body did.

  It's actually hard.

  Strictly speaking, he's just a rookie now, but Susan measures him by the standards of an elite police detective.

  Luke shook his head, suppressing the mess of thoughts.

  Let's work first, say 1,000 and 10,000 police officers are still solving cases.

  As long as the 'Taser robbery' case is solved, everything is solved.

  Luke found the information on the two cases and began to study.

  The suspect's purpose of committing the crime is unclear, and he may be concealing the real motive for committing the crime

  ...

  8 o'clock in the evening.

  Rose Bar.

  After crossing, Luke also liked the bar culture, and often came to have a drink after getting off work.

  Luke came here today not just for fun, but for other purposes.

  The bar was renovated last year, and the environment is not bad, with a dance floor, an entertainment area, a booth area and bar.

  There aren't many people at this place now, and Luke sits on the bar stools around the bar.

  A bartender in a black vest came over, "What would you like to drink today?" The bartender was a middle-aged white man, Luke was a frequent visitor here, and the two had a good relationship.

  "Whiskey." The bartender poured him half a glass of whiskey

  and put it on the bar, "Is there anything else you need?"

  "Get me five scratches."

  There are retail outlets in convenient places such as bars, supermarkets, gas stations, clubs, etc.

  Luke rarely bought lottery tickets before, which he felt was a waste of money.

  But now he has an 'adventure card'.

  It is the best adventure for Luke, who is struggling in life, to make a fortune.

  Luke took a sip from the glass and tasted it in his mouth. It was slightly sour and spicy, and the wine was strong.

  There were snacks in the self-service area, he chose a small plate of nuts and pretzels, the rest were too sweet for his taste.

  A scent of perfume wafted, and Luke turned his head to look, and a young woman came over.

  "Hey, excuse me, we meet again." The woman looked familiar, it was the woman who drove the convertible yesterday.

  She wore a black professional dress today, which made her a little more capable.

  Luke looked at each other up and down, "Miss, what's your name?"

  "Daisy, just call me Daisy. Although you didn't help, I still have to say thank you for the reminder."

  Luke smiled, "I was just afraid that your boyfriend will misunderstand, which is why I didn't stay to help."

  "You're so sweet." Daisy left with one sentence.

  Luke continued to drink leisurely, enjoying the laid-back atmosphere.

  "Your scratch, Goodluck." The bartender handed Luke a copy of the scratch.

  "How much?"

  Luke rubbed his hands together, impatiently.

  "Five dollars for whiskey, five dollars for scratch-offs, and a generous lady has already paid it for you, and gave me a five-dollar tip."

  "Who paid for me?"

  "It's that beautiful lady who spoke to you just now, She has just left."

  Luke shook his head, "I don't need anyone else to pay, I'll pay myself."

The bartender winked his eyes and said, "Hey, relax, it's normal in a bar.

  Next time You can ask her to talk a little more, maybe something else will happen?"

  Luke sighed softly, "I don't care about the whiskey's money, it's the scratches I'm worried about. Who's is it if it's a win? I don't want to make trouble."

  ...

  Leaving the bar, Daisy walked into a neighborhood street.

  The lights were a little dim, and no pedestrians could be seen in the street.

  She faintly heard light footsteps behind her, she turned her head to look and fond a man who was following in her footsteps, due to the distance she was unable to see his face clearly.

  Daisy was a little nervous and quickened her pace.

  The footsteps behind her were getting faster and closer.

  She couldn't help running but due to the high heels, she almost crooked her feet.

  She panicked, and put her right hand into her bag, as if she was rummaging for something.

  She took out a small bottle from her bag and turned to look back. The man was behind her wearing a baseball cap, so she still couldn't see his face clearly, "Who are you?

  Why...No..."

  Daisy didn't finish her sentence as she saw the man Take out a gun out of his bag.

  "Bang!"

  Daisy fell to the ground as if she was electrocuted, and instantly fell into a coma.

  A man wearing a baseball cap came over and kicked the bottle in Daisy's right hand, and dragged her to the corner of the street.

  The man with the baseball cap opened the travel bag in his hand, put Daisy's bag in it, took off Daisy's shoes and threw them in it, and stretched his hand to her shirt...

  Suddenly, a voice sounded not far away, "LAPD, raise your Hands!"

  "Fuck! How could a policeman be here of all places?" The man with the baseball cap was frightened.

  "Raise your hands!"

  "Don't shoot!" The man in the baseball cap looked at Luke and slowly raised his hands.

  Luke come closer to a few meters away from the suspect, holding his gun in both hands, "face down, lay on the ground with both hands behind your back."

  "Sir, this is a misunderstanding. She's my girlfriend. She's just sick. I'm helping her."

"Shut up, look straight ahead, and don't move." luke held down the suspect, handcuffed him from behind.

  "You have the right to remain silent.

  If you do not remain silent, everything you say can be used as evidence against you in court.

  You have the right to have a lawyer on the sidelines during your trial.

  If you can't afford a lawyer, the court will provide you with a lawyer for free."

  After reading Miranda's warning, Luke's old police sense came back.

  A voice sounded in my head, [Complete an adventure experience, the adventure card is activated and used. ]
