Of course, it wasn't going to be easy for a certain playboy to get what he wanted.
Tony Stark was a hero on the side of justice, while the guys from the hunting club didn't even have any humanity left.
As he thought of this, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He found Selina and whispered something to her in an empty space behind the police department. Selina instantly shrieked, "Huh? Los Angeles? I want to go to Hollywood! Wait, where's Hollywood in Los Angeles? Is it in our jurisdiction? "
Speechless, Luke still replied, "Westside Police Department has Hollywood and Westside Hollywood. Sunset Boulevard is in Beverly Hills."
Selina continued shrieking, "Ah, I want to go! I want to go! I want to go! I want to go! "
Luke was lost for words. "… Do you have money? If you don't, you'll have to eat dirt there. "
Selina was upset. "Ah, that's right. We don't even have any savings right now."
Luke said, "So … I told Director Thomas that we don't need a promotion. It would be better if we could have some cash."
Selina's eyes widened. "What? How is that possible? "
Their transfer order was already very strange, and even more against the rules, so how could they still be paid?
Luke snorted. "If I'm not mistaken, this is the work of a rich playboy. Regardless of whether it was the Houston or Los Angeles police departments, they would definitely benefit greatly from this. What's wrong with me asking for money? I'd rather not go if I have to eat dirt there. At least, Houston is much cheaper. "
Selina thought for a moment, but shook her head. "I don't think so."
Luke said, "Then, are you willing to go with me if you get money for your living expenses?"
Selina nodded quickly. "Of course. Actually, I want to go even if I don't get money for my living expenses. "
Luke said, "… Let's call home and let them know. The transfer might be quick. "
His words had come true!
Three days later, Luke and Selina set off on a Greyhound bus.
Luke's only regret was that he didn't get a chance to visit his "beloved" Officer Brock. It was said that he had been suspended and had been invited by the FBI to assist in the investigation.
The good news that Chief Thomas brought was that LAPD was willing to pay Luke and Selina a settlement fee for special talents.
It wasn't a lot, just 50,000 dollars per person, which was about the same as Luke and Selina's annual salary.
Selina was confused when she saw the reason for the money. What the hell was that? She had been a police officer for so long, but she had never heard of such a settlement allowance.
The benefits of a Los Angeles police officer were probably two thousand dollars in rent allowance, not fifty thousand.
At that time, Luke simply chuckled and didn't say anything. He knew that LAPD would only benefit more from Thomas's charity fund.
The bigshot of LAPD was actually secretly relieved that they didn't have to promote Luke and Selina, who had gone through the back door, for a relocation allowance of a hundred thousand dollars.
Even if Luke and Selina asked for another two hundred thousand, LAPD would have to agree in the end.
Therefore, while the Westside Houston Police Department was anxious, the LAPD was even more anxious.
Once the matter was confirmed, the other side immediately urged the two of them to go over, and even transferred the plane tickets to them.
In the end … Selina said that the Greyhound bus was more comfortable.
Of course, she was talking to Luke.
Thus, the two of them took the Greyhound bus and headed west.
Luke actually knew very well that they wouldn't have to pay for the plane tickets this way. The Greyhound bus cost less than a tenth of the plane tickets, so the money naturally went into their pockets.
Luke didn't care.
Although they had only received 50,000 dollars as a settlement allowance, it was good to save some money on food expenses. The other side had asked them to arrive in three days at most, but it would only take them two days to get there on the Greyhound bus.
Selina couldn't bring so many suitcases this time. She even packed up the things that were useful in the apartment. After they settled down, she asked the police department to check them in for her.
In any case, they were helping the Houston Police Department earn a lot of money for the charity fund. They didn't feel guilty at all.
What could Thomas say? He could just ask the logistics department to take care of everything for them.
Given the price of the Greyhound bus, they couldn't ask for too much.
Luke and Selina were both strong, and they rested for half a day before they set off again. So, it wasn't really a torture.
Just like that, they arrived in Los Angeles and reported to the LAPD.
They had done this two months ago, so they were very familiar with it.
But this time, there was no bigshot to handle the paperwork for them. They were directly assigned to the Major Crimes Division after reporting in.
Luke was amused. What a level-headedness.
More interestingly, they were assigned to the Major Crimes Division of the Westside Police Department in Houston, but in Los Angeles, they were assigned to the Major Crimes Division of the Westside Police Department.
Selina, on the other hand, was delighted. She hadn't expected to really be assigned to the Westside Police Department. For her, it didn't matter if she didn't get a promotion or a settlement allowance.
Hearing her nonsense, Luke simply added gloomily, "You can't even afford to eat there without money. Also, this place is one of the most expensive places in Los Angeles. You should worry about the rent first."
Selina was instantly conflicted.
But she soon cheered up. "That's fine. There's still a two-thousand-dollar rental allowance."
Luke said, "Hehe. Is it enough to rent a loft for a few months?"
Selina glared at him. "Can't you wait until I'm done enjoying the beauty of this place before you remind me about the money?"
Luke said, "We have to find a place to live first. Otherwise, the rental allowance will be gone in a few days if you stay in a hotel."
The two of them bickered for three days before they finally found a suitable apartment.
It was similar to the apartment in Houston.
It was a two-bedroom apartment of about fifty square meters. The only good thing about it was that it came with basic furniture, and they didn't have to buy those things themselves.
The rent was also as high as 1,200 dollars a month.
Thankfully, the apartment was old and didn't have an elevator. If it were a newer apartment, it would have cost at least 1,500 dollars.
After moving in, Selina said with a gloomy face, "What a loss! I'll use up the settlement allowance in a few years with this rent alone. "
Luke shrugged. "Don't worry. I promise I'll help you get rich in the future. How does that sound?"
Selina wasn't convinced. "We're police officers. How do you want to get rich?"
Pondering for a moment, Luke said, "How about some gadgets?"
Selina said, "Tsk! You're not an elementary school student anymore. Stop messing around. "She thought that the gadgets were something that elementary school students often did.
Luke smiled but didn't say anything.
He hadn't realized it when he was in Houston. After all, Texas had one of the lowest taxes in America, while California had one of the highest.
