With the arrival of the great era, supervillains and even supervillains who opposed superheroes would pop up like mushrooms after a spring rain.
His experience and credit points would also grow at a rapid pace.
So, it would be strange if he wasn't anxious.
Half a million credit points meant that he was halfway to his goal of a million credit points.
A million credit points meant that the storage module would be upgraded again.
What he cared about the most wasn't how many things he could store after the upgrade, but whether or not Space 2 would expand.
Space 2, which was only one cubic meter, was really too small to store too many living things.
If everything went as he expected, this space that could store living things would be very useful in the future.
For example, it might not be impossible to "carry a prison with you."
On this day, a drizzle fell from the sky.
It rained in New York almost every three days in March. Compared with Los Angeles, the precipitation here was too high.
Thankfully, it was Selina who liked to sunbathe, and Luke liked rainy days in his previous life, as long as he didn't run around in the rain.
But today, he had to investigate a murder case, so he had to drive out in the rain and ask a lot of residents who might have clues.
When it was almost noon, he and Selina had just left a small bookstore when they saw a small, furtive figure not far away.
He looked a little helpless. "What's she doing here?"
Selina followed his gaze and smiled. "Skipping class again?"
Luke sighed. "You should've asked her when she didn't skip class. That way, I could've given you a simple answer."
Selina asked, "So? Are you going to rush over and drag her back to school? "
Luke said, "It's already noon. I'll call Damon and tell him that his daughter will be having lunch with us."
After he made the call, they walked over.
Luke grabbed one of the girl's ponytails and imagined it to be Peppa Pig's ear. "Have you thought of an excuse this time?"
Mindy stiffened and slowly turned around. She looked at Luke, who had a straight face, and Selina, who was waving at her with a smile. She smiled awkwardly. "I … just wanted to buy a comic."
Luke said, "I just came out of the bookstore over there."
Mindy: "… I haven't gone in yet."
Luke shook his head. "Alright, I'm not Damon. Save those words for your dad. Since we've met, come and have lunch with us. "
Mindy nodded, then immediately shook her head.
Luke asked, "What? Didn't I tell you to eat less fast food and more vegetables? Otherwise, why would God's Capital have a beer belly? "
Mindy felt wronged, but since she had been caught skipping class, she could only swallow her anger and move closer. "There's a pervert over there! He's been following that beauty. Maybe he'll see her when he reaches the alley. Hehehe, you know what I mean. "
Speechless, Luke flicked her forehead and turned to look at where she was looking. He couldn't help but be stunned. That guy looked a little familiar.
With his current Spiritual Attribute, anyone who had a slight impression of him would be able to find similar scenes in their memories.
Thinking for two seconds, he rubbed Mindy's head with a strange expression. "You've never had a boyfriend, have you?"
Mindy: "Huh?"
"Huh?"
Luke said, "I know that guy. The beauty you're talking about is probably his girlfriend. Their hobbies are a little … special, got it?"
Mindy and Selina both shook their heads. They really didn't understand.
Lost for words, Luke said a moment later, "They like to create surprises for each other, or act out some movie plots. One of them might be stalking them home. Kidnappers. Gif. Got it? "
Selina was enlightened, but Mindy was confused.
But looking at Selina's expression, she realized that she had probably misunderstood something.
But the pride in her heart made her retort in a low voice, "That guy is as ugly as an avocado. Unless his girlfriend has an unusual sense of beauty, how could she like him?"
She paused for a moment and said hesitantly, "Or maybe he's rich? But that face … It's hard for a woman to accept even if he's rich, right? "
Luke was stunned. "Avocado? He can't be that ugly, right? "
At that moment, the man subconsciously looked around and happened to meet Luke's gaze.
After a brief silence, both of them looked away, as if they didn't know each other.
Luke took Mindy's hand and said, "Let's go for lunch first. You have class in the afternoon. "
Mindy: Despair. JPG。
…
At night, Wade stood in a dark corner and let the cold raindrops fall on him as he stared blankly at the balcony on the third floor.
Vanessa had quit her job and turned from a barmaid to a jobless person.
Wade was comforted by that, but also bitter. She hadn't forgotten about him! Thankfully, he had left her all his money.
Recalling how she had put up missing-person notices with his picture everywhere during the day and even asked passersby, he felt a sense of happiness, which was then followed by even greater despair.
How could he meet her in his current state? If she wanted to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and saw his face, she wouldn't have to. She would have to wait until the sheets were changed the next day.
In the past, this would actually be a good idea, but he wasn't in the mood for games now.
Suddenly, a voice rang out behind him. "Yo, you've spent all five million?"
Wade's voice froze, and he turned his head. "You …"
Even with Luke's composure, he couldn't help but step back slightly to get as far away from Wade's face as possible. "Wow, wow. Wait, what's with your face? Even if Quasimodo crawled out of his grave, he'd still be more handsome than you. "
Wade was lost for words when he thought of his situation.
For a moment, he didn't even have the strength to babble. He stood there with his head lowered, like a student who had been punished by the teacher to stand in class.
Luke shook his head helplessly. It was a good thing that he was wearing a mask this time, or this guy might have fought him.
"You're not going to find your girlfriend? Did she really cheat you out of the five million, and then kick you out of the house? "he couldn't help but mock Wade.
Wade was furious. "Nonsense, Vanessa only loves me. I left her the money."
Luke was surprised. "You left her five million?"
This money addict was so generous. Was it true love this time?
Wade nodded, then shook his head. "Only 4.537,000. She spent more than 400,000 a month to treat me. "
Luke was surprised. "And then?"
Wade had a strong urge to talk, and he said, "And then I had to leave. Otherwise, she wouldn't get anything except spending all the money. "
Luke couldn't help but look at the balcony on the third floor, where Vanessa Carlisle, Wende's girlfriend, lived. Wade had been living off her every day.
Then, he looked at Wade, who was like a stray dog … Fine, that was an insult to stray dogs.
