As soon as Dr. Jane said that, Selvig and Darcy looked embarrassed.
Luke didn't owe them anything, and had always taken good care of them. As soon as Darcy called, he had immediately rushed over to negotiate with the FBI.
This couldn't be called being dutiful; it was purely because he was kind and willing to help others.
Dr. Jane's words were really rude.
If there really was a problem, she couldn't solve it, so what was the point of asking?
Luke, however, wasn't angry.
Women in love were brainless, and even the straight-A goddess was no exception.
He had encountered too many situations like this at work, so he wasn't angry at all. He simply said, "They're a proper department, and they have to follow procedures. Although I know someone, they can't break the rules for this. After going through the necessary procedures, they'll naturally release them and return the things. You all know how much time it takes to go through the procedures, right? "
This time, even Dr. Jane nodded subconsciously.
They were all teaching at a university, which was also a place that paid great attention to procedures and rules.
If they wanted to make an exception, they had to have extraordinary connections, such as having a certain bigshot vouch for them.
Luke was just a small sheriff, not the FBI director. It was already good enough that he could get them to release them and return the things. He really couldn't ask for anything else.
Selvig knew very well that the "FBI" wasn't the FBI at all, but some more mysterious organization.
Luke had actually been able to convince them to release them in just half a day. This was already a good enough result.
The four of them returned to the makeshift house. Selvig persuaded Dr. Jane to rest, and Luke said goodbye.
Darcy, however, stopped him and said embarrassedly, "Well, can you shower there?"
Luke: "Huh?"
Darcy chuckled. "That guy dared to come over the night before last, and I still haven't found a bathroom. I feel uncomfortable all over, so …"
Luke was amused. "Okay, you want to take my car?"
Darcy nodded decisively and asked him to wait for a moment. She went to tell Selvig before she left in Luke's car.
Selvig was left standing in front of the makeshift house with a pained expression on his face. "What are you teachers and students doing? Can't you have some spirit for research? I've met countless beauties over the years, and I rejected all of them without hesitation. That's how I learned more about the mysteries of the universe. You guys … Sigh! "
The depressed Selvig could only sit in the jeep alone and stare blankly at the darkening sky.
He remembered running under the sunset when he was young. It was his lost youth.
…
On the other side, Daisy nervously "borrowed this place to wash up." Nothing indescribable happened as she had expected.
Luke simply led her to Drax's room and took her to the guest bathroom. He told her that she could shower there before he left.
Daisy was stunned for a while. Her mind was filled with the image of him turning around and leaving without hesitation. She was a little confused. "This script doesn't seem right."
But Luke returned a few minutes later.
Seeing that she was still in a daze at the door, he put the new towel and the T-shirt and shorts he had left here in her hands. "There are no suitable clothes for you to change into. Wear these for the time being. They are all clean. I still have something to do. Call me when you come out. "
Then he was gone again, gone, gone.
Daisy: … Didn't you say you couldn't help yourself? What happened to the Heavenly Lightning and Earthly Fire? What the hell was with this plot? This was a plot written by a brain-dead scriptwriter!
In any case, Daisy went to take a shower.
She really wanted to take a shower, but she had wanted to look for a hotel in town.
She hadn't showered in almost three days, and she felt like she was stinking.
Wait, is this the reason why the handsome little sheriff ran so fast?
Just as she was about to dry her hair, she subconsciously squeezed some shampoo and shower gel to wash herself again.
By the time she finished blow-drying her hair and came out of the shower, it was already an hour later.
Looking around the quiet room, Daisy murmured, "He's really not here?"
Slightly disappointed, she put on the clothes that Luke had given her and put her own clothes in the big bag that Luke had left behind.
Actually, she had a change of clothes, but she had been so focused on asking for a shower that she had forgotten to put them in the jeep.
"How considerate!" she couldn't help but murmur after putting on her clothes, before she called Luke.
A moment later, she followed Luke's instructions and walked out of the main house. She found the tool shed dozens of meters away and went in.
The moment she entered, she saw Luke busying himself under the bright lights in a T-shirt.
Daisy couldn't help but exclaim and whistle. "That body … tsk, tsk."
When she came in, Luke had been moving a steel plate, and most of the muscles in his upper body had been mobilized.
As a muscle fan, Daisy could almost imagine the tight muscles under the T-shirt. She couldn't help but swallow. "It's too much to see such an exciting scene as soon as I come in."
Of course, Luke heard her and found it amusing. Sure enough, lust didn't discriminate between men and women.
He steadily placed the steel plate in a suitable position and began to reinforce it as he said, "Do you feel better now?"
Daisy was confused. "Huh?"
Luke said, "I'm taking a shower. Sometimes, it feels like I haven't done anything yet, and I feel uncomfortable. "
Daisy nodded. "That's true. I had to wash it a few more times before I felt clean."
Finally, Luke couldn't help but turn his head to see what "clean" meant.
Daisy was walking over to him, and he saw a lot of movement under the thin sweater in her short coat.
Pure natural, no additives, guaranteed quality! He couldn't help but think of these words.
'Daisy is indeed fierce!'
Daisy wasn't in a hurry to return to the makeshift shed. She found a chair on the side and chatted with Luke, who was working.
Luke didn't mind.
The work this time wasn't difficult, and it wasn't as precise as the armor. The key was that it was durable.
Although Daisy was surprised by what he had tinkered with, she didn't think too much about it after hearing that it was a test equipment from the Shackelford Police Department.
It wasn't hard for a Texas sheriff to tinker with strange weapons. As long as they didn't cause any trouble, there were people who could play with armored vehicles and tanks, not to mention what Luke had tinkered with.
After chatting for half an hour, Daisy's stomach suddenly growled.
She was sitting not far away from Luke, and they both heard it clearly.
Looking at her, who was rubbing her stomach, Luke asked with a smile, "Hungry?"
Daisy nodded. "I had breakfast."
Luke dropped what he was doing. "Let's go. I'll treat you to lunch."
Daisy quickly nodded.
Half an hour later, she was a little dazed as she looked at the Latin American beauty in front of her. She couldn't help but glance at Luke, who was sitting next to the beauty.
