When they arrived at the beach, the two of them saw a lonely figure standing on the road outside the sewer from afar.
Looking at the image projected on her glasses, Selina didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Is she waiting for a taxi?"
Luke said helplessly, "I think so."
On the road next to the beach, Skye stood alone and looked around, paying special attention to a taxi when it passed by.
Seeing that it wasn't an empty car, she was disappointed.
Finally, an empty car stopped in front of her.
After a few words, the empty car drove off again.
Selina said, "Is she really moving? She has so many things?"
Looking at the seven or eight bags of various sizes behind her, Luke was a little speechless.
He called Charlie and asked him to drive the pickup truck with Lacca to pick them up.
With so much luggage, a taxi wouldn't be able to carry it all, so of course he could refuse to take her.
As for why Skye was moving with so many things, he didn't care.
It wasn't unusual for a child to move a few cars of toys. Skye, this hacker girl, might even be the parts she had collected.
The two of them floated down from the sky and entered the sewers.
A few minutes later, Gold Nugget, who had been running all the way, also dove in.
Luke and Selina had flown over after leaving home for some distance. Gold Nugget, on the other hand, had run over on four legs, so it was a little late.
Following the instructions on the Hellhound suit, it quickly approached Luke and Selina.
In terms of flying, it wasn't as fast as Luke and Selina.
But in the sewers, it was far faster than humans. After all, it had four legs.
During the day, Luke had detected the scent of human activity and found Skye all the way. In fact, he hadn't explored the sewers at all.
Now that he was wearing his armor, he didn't have to worry about anything, and moved even faster.
However, compared with the buildings on the ground in New York, the sewers were a big problem.
Although the buildings on the ground were complicated, people could only move around on the road.
Luke's control over New York was naturally based on monitoring the road.
A drone couldn't escape the detection of an intelligent program within several kilometers.
But the sewers were different.
Even if there were drones inside, they couldn't monitor a range of several kilometers.
Whether it was the signal attenuation or the terrain restrictions, the drones were much less efficient.
Dozens of drones couldn't compare to a single drone on the ground.
In some important areas, he would install fixed surveillance equipment in the sewers, but there wouldn't be too many of them.
If he wanted to fill a large city with surveillance cameras, he would probably be able to do it in a few decades. However, he would have to replace them after daily damage.
He was not a psychopath. He could not spend his entire life installing surveillance cameras in the sewers.
Therefore, he was mainly familiar with the environment of New York's sewers. He could forget about controlling them.
If the sewer system was so easy to control, how could he use it to retreat?
Many people had also considered the possibility of Batman using the sewers to hide his whereabouts, but because of this problem, there was no good solution.
Nobody, including Luke himself, would be able to track a target in the sewers unless they happened to run into a trap.
So, Luke and Selina couldn't search very quickly.
It wasn't until Gold Nugget arrived that Luke and Selina split up.
After searching for half an hour, Selina couldn't help but complain, "If it weren't for the armor, I would've been lost. Damn it, why are the sewers here so complicated? "
Luke was only slightly better than her. Hearing that, he comforted her. "Think about it. Maybe that's why they chose to take the body here."
Selina asked, "You don't have any leads?"
Luke said, "No. It rained a few times in New York a few days ago, and any traces were washed away. But from this, we can tell that those people haven't been here in the past few sunny days. "
Selina was lost for words. "… So you're saying that it wasn't a good time for us to eliminate those gangs?"
Luke said, "If it wasn't a coincidence, we might not even know about this case. Be content."
Selina actually didn't care about the time wasted on the search, but it wasn't her habit to work in silence.
Usually, when they went out to beat up people, they chatted as they worked.
Now that they didn't even know where the enemy was, they naturally couldn't be nervous.
After three hours of searching, the two of them and the dog had only covered less than a kilometer, and were almost done with the protruding area in the southwest corner of Brooklyn.
Of course, this protruding area was less than a kilometer long, but more than six kilometers horizontally. It wasn't a small amount of work at all.
Looking at the time, Luke said, "Let's go. We've already set up surveillance cameras in this area. Maybe we'll find something. We'll do the rest when we have time. "
Selina nodded and quickly left with Gold Nugget.
The two of them activated automatic cleaning to get rid of the stains and smell on their armor, before they left in stealth mode again.
Gold Nugget looked at the two guys who had run off resentfully. Resigned to its fate, it turned invisible and ran away.
Luke had actually prepared a flight function for the Hellhound armor, but Selina said that it ate, slept, played, played, and ate every day, and that Dollar was getting tired.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, it could only run at night.
Gold Nugget had a lot to say, but in the end, it held back.
That was because Selina was right. It liked surfing the Internet, watching TV shows, and cursing people, but Dollar wasn't interested in any of that.
On the contrary, running and playing with its little master, Selina, was Dollar's favorite thing to do.
Because of its intelligence, Dollar had given most of its body control to Gold Nugget, but its innate nature couldn't be erased.
Gold Nugget could only resign itself to fate.
Now, it gave up on controlling Dollar, and simply told it where Selina was and told it to go after her.
Dollar, the old dog, was bursting with energy after becoming symbiotic with Gold Nugget, and it immediately broke into a run.
For Gold Nugget, this was more or less the same as Luke turning on the automatic cruise!
The alien dog head could only comfort itself that way.
On their way home, Luke sent a message to Charlie in passing and asked if he had picked up Skye.
When they came out, Skye was no longer where she had been standing, along with her bags. Charlie had probably picked her up.
After a while, a message came back. "Boss, Charlie was beaten up by that little beauty of yours. He's being checked out at the community clinic. That little beauty is so hot. Will she fight with the boss's wife? "
Luke was stunned. "Who are you? Why was Charlie beaten up? "
A moment later, a message came back. "I'm Raqael, boss. Charlie learned from those idiots in those flirting videos and went over to strike up a conversation. He had only said a few words when he was punched in the eye by the little beauty. Then, Dick suffered a kick and instantly fell down, haha. "
Luke was speechless. He really wanted to ask Charlie, "Are you an idiot?"
The boss had told you to pick someone up, but you went off to make a joke and hit on a girl?
An African American was hitting on a girl who wasn't African American in the middle of the night. It would be strange if they didn't misunderstand that you were trying to force yourself on them.
