In the morning, Misty followed Luke around to familiarize herself with the environment, and then they investigated the case.
They had a good lunch at noon, and Luke told her that they were done for the day at three in the afternoon.
Subconsciously looking at her watch, she couldn't help but ask, "It's only three, right?"
Luke had only said in the morning that he would get off work at half past three in the afternoon.
Luke nodded matter-of-factly. "That's right. I have something to do today, so I'll get off work early. You can also go to the training center. Just treat it as recovery training. "
Misty said, "But we've only just started investigating this case …"
Luke waved his hand. "Selina and I are in the top five in the monthly comprehensive performance evaluation. We have to give others something to do, or we'll be hated. "
After that, Luke drove off.
Misty was left stunned for a long time. So, he could get in the top five in the Detective Bureau by working five hours a day?
Thinking about John McClane, who was notorious in NYPD but had the best performance in the Detective Bureau, she couldn't help but murmur, "So, are all my colleagues in the Detective Bureau monsters like this?"
Her performance in every department had been outstanding. Now, it seemed that she had to work harder to catch up to these monster colleagues!
…
Luke wasn't lying. He really did have something to do.
At half past three in the afternoon, his level two clone had to go to Pim Technologies for an inspection.
The investigation of the level one clone was related to his big business of earning points. If he wasn't familiar with the three-way job, it was easy for his main body to be distracted.
Misty wasn't Selina, and he didn't want her to notice that. It was best to get off work early as usual.
When Luke's main body returned home, his second clone got out of the Lincoln limousine from Titanium Phone's San Francisco branch and stood at the entrance of Pim Technologies.
Seeing that he was alone, the seven or eight people who were already waiting there were stunned.
Then, a person who looked like a secretary looked at the photo and confirmed Luke's identity to the company bigshots in a low voice. Only then did the group approach him.
At that moment, Luke was using a real alias called Sean Connelly. He looked like a white man in his fifties and wore a pair of light gray sunglasses. He looked very serious.
He quickened his pace and met up with the people from Pimm Technologies. After a simple greeting, Luke displayed the style of a technician. "I still have a lot of work to do. I only took some time to fly over, and I'll be flying back tonight. So, gentlemen, let's get started."
The big shots of Pim Technology paused for a moment, but they didn't object.
There were many people with such tempers in technology companies.
Now that they had a favor to ask of the other party, they naturally had to comply.
Since Luke had mentioned that he would be flying at night, Pim Technologies wasn't in the mood to show him around the company, and went straight to the inspection of the products.
An hour later, Luke weighed the miniature file cabinet in his hand thoughtfully. "Not bad. Your product does have great prospects. I'm optimistic about it."
Only CEO Darren Klaus and research director Hope Van Dyne were present at the scene.
Darren was a bald, middle-aged man with the typical air of a businessman.
Hope, on the other hand, was a young girl. Her black hair, coupled with her slightly aged facial features, made her look even older.
In short, this girl wasn't Luke's cup of tea at all.
In terms of appearance alone, he wouldn't even spare her a second glance. However, Luke had been paying attention to her through the projection on his glasses today.
Not only that, he was also paying attention to her with Basic Psychology and Mental Communication. He had also used a tiny amount of pheromones to control her so that she wouldn't feel bad about him.
Yes, the tiny amount of pheromones could only control her so that she wouldn't feel bad about him.
If he didn't have this ability, this girl would definitely be a classic case of smiling on the outside but feeling numb on the inside.
The bald CEO Darren, on the other hand, had a really good attitude — at least, he was always a little happier when it came to money.
Luke had spent an hour here today, but most of his attention had been spent on observing the two of them.
It had only taken him ten minutes to determine the value of the product called Pim particles. He didn't need to look at it any longer.
Darren wasn't an idiot. That was all he could show an outsider.
If Luke hadn't shown his bad temper as a technician, Darren would've dragged him to talk about money a long time ago.
After his observation, Luke didn't waste any more time. He said that the product wasn't bad, and that money could probably be discussed.
After Luke left Pim Technology and got into the Lincoln Stretch Limousine, the driver asked respectfully, "Mr. Connelly, shall I take you to the airport now?"
Luke hummed in response and didn't say anything else. He simply turned his head and looked at the two people who were smiling and waving goodbye at the entrance of Pim Technology. He couldn't help but say, "Hehe, interesting."
Half an hour later, the Lincoln Stretch Limousine left the airport, and the private jet took off as scheduled.
Luke, on the other hand, walked out of the airport again. This time, he had changed into a hoodie and a cap. Lowering his head slightly, he disappeared into the night of San Francisco.
…
At home in New York, the main body looked through the information with great interest. "Hope Van Dyne, the daughter of the company's founder, Hank Pym, helped Darren gain control of his father's company, and then kicked him out of the company. Tsk tsk, what kind of family drama is this? Could it be that Hank found his daughter a stepmother, and then … "
At that point, he shook his head again. "Fine, Hope is clearly very hostile to Darren, but she doesn't show it on the surface. Darren actually doesn't trust Hope, and seems to be mocking her? This is really … complicated. "
This proved once again that in front of money, people weren't like people, but more like ghosts.
Hank Pim, the founder of Pim Technology, was his student, and Darren and his daughter, Hope, had worked together to kick Hank out.
Now, Darren and Hope were seemingly united, but actually at odds with each other.
At the very least, Hope didn't want Darren to have sufficient funds at all.
Every time she heard Luke's affirmation of Pim Particles, her mental state fluctuated a lot.
Naturally, this was what Luke had sensed with his ability.
Caught off guard, Darren and Hope's inner reactions were too obvious.
Luke didn't need to pay too much attention to guess most of what was going on.
That way, his clone couldn't return to New York right away.
No matter what the couple was thinking, Luke was very interested in Pim Particles.
However, he hadn't thought about getting anything from Pim Technology.
Pim Technology wasn't a newbie in the industry, and had plenty of ways to keep their technology confidential.
Even the lab staff could only understand part of how to make Pim Particles at most, and the key data and steps were still stored in the company's mainframe.
On the other hand, while Darren was a traitor and Hope was a deceitful daughter, the other shareholders of Pim Technology hadn't provoked Luke.
He wasn't crazy enough to rush in and steal their technology.
