Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 279 The Cases in Wever

Chapter 279 The Cases in Wever


Ever since the system’s appearance, Luke had gotten more and more fond of guns.


Guns were weapons that he could openly use for the long term. With Tony Stark’s abilities, it wasn’t hard for him to make his own special weapons.


Gun modification was like an instinct that was in the playboy’s blood.


Beginning with Howard Stark, who was Tony Stark’s father and also a playboy, they invented a lot of weapons, including the iron suits ultimately developed by Tony Stark.


Although Tony Stark shut down the weapons division of his corporation, he never abandoned his pursuit of more powerful arms.


Though Luke wasn’t as good as Tony Stark, it wasn’t hard for him to make guns with Tony’s abilities.


After he made two special pistols for himself, Luke fiddled around with other firearms.


While he could use a pistol as a police detective, it was impossible to take a rifle out with him when he was on duty every day.


So, the other guns he designed were for his vigilante pursuits. He had to make them himself so that there were no records of them anywhere.


Like his pistols, these guns were built for different purposes and not just for killing.


Seeing more and more guns in his inventory, Luke was actually quite excited despite his grumbles of overworking himself.


He hadn’t liked them before because he hadn’t been good with them. It was like people who weren’t smart and didn’t like school.


Now that he had enough abilities, he enjoyed making his own toys and defeating his opponents with them.


He was busy the whole night. He went to bed later than Selina and got up before she did.


After making a simple breakfast, he woke Selina up.


After breakfast, Luke nodded at the box on the table. “Work harder today, alright? Your dessert for the day is inside.”


Selina quickly finished her sandwich and opened the box. “This is… green tea cake?”


Luke nodded and said, “It’s the first time I’ve made it. If you like it, I can make other green tea desserts, but if you don’t, I’ll work on something else next time.”


Selina had a piece of the cake and remarked, “Huh, the taste isn’t bad. I guess we can have it every couple of days.”


Luke: “It seems you’re not sold on it. Perhaps I’ll make something else for you.”


Selina: “…Darling, you’re so considerate.”


Luke: “It’s nothing. You can have as much as you want as long as you don’t slack off in your training.”


Selina immediately turned gloomy. “Can we talk about something less depressing on this beautiful morning?”


Luke: “Okay. I’ll talk about it once we get off work then.”


Selina: …


Selina split the green tea cake and packed them into multiple paper bags.


Since Luke said he would make her more food, she decided to use the cake to bond with her less agreeable colleagues.


Selina was quite comfortable doing so.


As a gorgeous and friendly woman, it wasn’t strange for her to give other people gifts.


Luke, on the other hand, might appear polite, but he always seemed distant to his colleagues.


So, Selina had to bond with their colleagues in his place.


After they arrived, Selina began to distribute the cake.


They hadn’t come too early. By the time they arrived, eighty percent of the detectives were already there.


Each paper bag contained four slices of cake for each team of detectives.


Luke didn’t leave, and simply smiled and nodded back at the colleagues who thanked him.


After Selina was done distributing the paper bags, they went to Elsa’s office.


Elsa teased Luke. “You didn’t prepare anything


for me?”


Luke chuckled and shut the door, and Selina gave her two bags. “Boss, here are some sweets for you and Dustin.”


Elsa quickly hid the food and said, “You did a good job yesterday. Even Director Brad praised


you.”


Luke and Selina weren’t that excited.


This wasn’t Houston, and they weren’t shut out here.


While it might be too much to say that they had a lot of friends in the police department, they didn’t really have any enemies.


Elsa, Dustin, the director and the deputy director wouldn’t give them any trouble, and would even offer help when necessary.


Luke and Selina’s life here was much better than in Houston.


Elsa only mentioned Brad because she didn’t want them to feel that they were being ignored, even if they were still young and weren’t in a hurry to be promoted.


“Are you going to investigate the two cases in Wever today?” asked Elsa.


Other detectives might take a break after resolving a major case, but she knew that these two wouldn’t.


Luke nodded and said, “I’m going to read up on them first. These cases might be tricky.”


Elsa nodded. “Alright. If you haven’t found any leads in three days, the cases will be transferred to the FBI.”


Selina found that odd. “Huh? Were these crimes committed by a serial killer?”


Usually, the FBI wouldn’t intervene unless a case was important or involved multiple murders and locations.


These two cases were hardly major ones, so it could only be a serial killer.


Elsa shook her head. “It’s not clear, but Dustin already told us to pay extra attention in case we run into any trouble.”


Luke frowned. “Trouble?”


Elsa didn’t keep it a secret from Luke. “The FBI has already decided that they’ll take over in three days.”


Luke nodded. “What’s the boss’s opinion?” He was actually fine with it.


Elsa shook her head. “The boss has no objections. If the FBI wants to take over, just let them.”


Luke immediately got it. There wasn’t anything to be gained from the cases in Wever, so the police department would be happy to give them away to the FBI as a gesture of goodwill. “We’ll go take a look first.” Luke didn’t give an answer right away. Elsa nodded.


Luke and Selina then left Elsa’s office and returned to their desks. At an adjacent desk, Elizabeth raised her head and gave Selina an inquiring look.


Selina said, “Fine, Elizabeth, you can come over. There’s no need to stare at me like that.”


Elizabeth rose with a smile and said, “Thank you for the cake, Selina.”


Selina could only chuckle. Elsa and Dustin were the only people in the police department who knew where the cake came from, while the rest of the officers thought that it was Selina who made it.
