Chapter 5 Doubt

  Luke contacted his colleagues immediately.

  Although he doesn't get along with them, they are still very reliable when push comes to shove.

  He checked Daisy's physical condition, her breathing was normal, and her life was not in danger for the time being.

  Start surveying the site.

  The weapon used by the suspect was a Taser, and the travel bag contained Daisy's bag and shoes, and a button on her shirt was unbuttoned .

  Luke thought of the 'Taser robbery' case almost immediately.

  Then he felt something was wrong again.

  Today is Thursday.

  According to the suspect's past crimes, the crime is usually committed on Friday.

  Both victims of the 'Taser robbery' had long blond hair, while Daisy had long brown hair.

  The timing of the crime and the characteristics of the victims don't match.

  "Why... why are you here? You saved me?" Daisy opened her eyes and looked at her surroundings, still terrified.

  With her hands on the ground, she tried to sit up, but she was helpless.

  Luke showed his police badge, "LAPD, don't be afraid, the suspect has been subdued by me."

  Daisy said in a trembling voice, with red eyes, "Thank you for saving me, thank you very much."

  "You're welcome, I'm only doing my duty." Luke took out fifteen dollars from his pocket and put it in Daisy's hand, "I'll give you the money back."

  Daisy opened her mouth and said with an unbelievable look. "Are you looking for me to pay me back?"

  "Yes."

  "Wait, I'm just offering you a drink to thank you. If you hadn't reminded me in time, my tires would probably have been scrapped, and you saved my life. I..."

  "Then please openly and honestly thank me, instead of leaving secretly after paying."

  "You're right, next time I will formally invite you to express my gratitude." Daisy said solemnly.

  "Your body hasn't recovered yet, so let's take a rest first." Luke said perfunctory, none of these matters, the important thing is to pay back the lottery money.

  ...

  A few minutes later, nearby patrolmen arrived at the scene, pulled up the cordon marked 'LAPD', and assisted Luke in maintaining order at the scene.

  Twenty minutes later, the 'robbery-murder division' people also arrived.

  "yeh, yeh! Isn't this our big hero who single-handedly caught the robber!" Marcus said with a bit of envy and jealousy.

  In the robbery and murder department, only Luke is off work on time, and the others are working hard overtime.

  The results of it?

  Luke became the hero and catch a suspect alone.

  Who are you going to reason with?

  Captain Susan glanced around, "Luke, what's the situation at the scene?"

  Luke recounted the arrest in detail.

  Susan pressed, "Do you think he's the suspect in the two previous 'Taser robberies'?"

  "I'm not sure."

  "What about the suspect?"

  "He won't talk until hislawyer comes."

  Susan patted Luke on the shoulder, "Good job luke, great work!"

  "As I said, I can still contribute to this team even if you don't work overtime."

  "Very good, I look forward to your performance in the future."

   Deputy Team leader Vincent came over, "The people from CBS TV are here, they want to interview Luke."

  Susan looked at Luke, "What do you think?"

  It's a good thing to be in the limelight, but the police still have to keep a low profile, even if it is not for their own safety, they must also think about the safety of their family.

  "Captain, I'm a little tired. I just want to take a shower and get a good night's sleep."

  Luke waved goodbye to his colleague, "See you tomorrow."

  Deputy Team leader Vincent was speechless, "Just let him go like this?"

  Su Shan asked back, "Why not? He caught the suspect, who deserves more credit than him?"

  "This kid has shit luck!"

  Vice Team leader Vincent spread his hands and shouted at the others, "Guys , take the suspect back to the police station, we are going to be busy tonight."

  ...

  Back home.

  Luke went straight back to his bedroom on the second floor.

  Close the door and start researching the detective system.

  To be precise, it is to study the 'adventure card'.

  Luke's consciousness entered the detective system, and the warehouse interface was empty and the 'adventure card' had disappeared.

  I remembered the previous system prompt [Complete an adventure experience, the adventure card is activated and used. ]

  Originally, he felt that what happened today was too bizarre. He was just chasing Daisey to pay her back the lottery money, but he just happened to catch a robber. It was a lot of luck.

  Now it seems that the detective system has played a role.

  The good news is that Luke has caught a robber and his job is temporarily saved.

  The bad news is that the adventure card is used up, and Luke may not have such good luck again.

  Luke asked in his mind, 'The detective system, how can I get a new adventure card? '

  Luke asked several times in Chinese and English, but got no response.

  Luke was suddenly a little disappointed, and sure enough, detectives are not so easy to do.

  Luke took a shower, lying on the bed full of thoughts about today's experience... The adventure card is gone, and Scratchler doesn't want to scratch for the time being.

  He never won a prize since he was a child.

  When he was drowsy and was about to fall asleep, a voice sounded in his head [Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for successfully catching a robber, activating the lottery menu and rewarding 10 lottery chances. ]

  Then the options menu appears in his mind, and the warehouse interface is on the left.

  There is a lottery screen on the right.

  In the middle is a turntable with a sharp pointer, and the lower left corner shows that there are 10 chances to draw.

  Luke didn't know what to do, but when he thought of the word lottery in his mind, the hands began to turn.

  The pointer stopped, and the selected area lit up with a thousand dollars written on it.

  The corner of Luke's mouth twitched, and he was lucky.

  He was worried at first about a 'thank you for your patronage'.

  Continue to draw.

  The pointer turns.

  Random stops, the selected area lights up, $1,000.

  Third lottery draw, adventure cards.

  Forth draw, $1,000.

  Fifth draw, $1,000.

  Sixth draw, $1,000.

  Seventh draw, $1,000.

  Eighth draw, $1,000.

  Ninth draw, $1,000.

  Tenth draw, probe cards.

  The word 'detection' is written on the card, and there is a small line of comments below it [active card, function unknown].

  List of prizes this time

  'eight thousand dollars!

  Adventure card, [Passive card, will automatically disappear when an adventure occurs. ]

  Probe card, [active card, function unknown]'

  Luke sat up from the bed, and the drowsiness just now was swept away.

  The adventure card function is basically figured out, and the adventure is passively triggered.

  Probe card, literally understood, may be a card with some kind of sensing function.

  However, the specific detection range and functional properties are still unclear, and it is estimated that it will be known after using it.

  10 times of lottery, 8 times got one thousand dollars, from the lottery results, one thousand dollars is equivalent to 'thank you for your patronage'.

  This system is really powerful.

  With that money Luke's economy could improve.

  Luke subconsciously thought 'how to get the bonus? '

  A voice sounded in his head, [There are two ways to receive it, the first way is to directly distribute to the host's bank account. (Instant arrival)

  The second way is to distribute to the host through legitimate channels. (depending on the actual situation)]

  Luke thought for a while, these two methods have their own advantages and disadvantages, and instant payment is definitely cool, but once or twice is fine, too much may cause problems.

  If the police is the second most powerful organization in the United States, then the only one that dares to call itself the first is the US Internal Revenue Service.

  If they targeted him, Luke is likely to be regarded as a black policeman.

  To be safe, choose the second method.
