Claire even said that she would come here to play with Luke and Selina when she was on vacation.
Luke smiled wryly at that.
He and Selina worked too long to spend time with their families.
Catherine, on the other hand, knew how hard police work was. With a few words, she dispelled Claire's thoughts and brainwashed her daughter. "If you really want to come here, then study hard and get into USC or UCLA. You'll be able to find a job here and stay in the same city as those big stars. "
Claire was enlightened. "That's right. I have to study hard."
Luke was lost for words. Kids are so gullible.
Joseph was lost for words. Then, wouldn't I have to wait another decade?
The happy days passed quickly. On January 3rd, Luke finally sent Robert's family off.
Claire couldn't help but cry when they said goodbye, and Joseph was reluctant to leave.
Robert and Catherine were much nicer. They simply patted Luke's shoulder and hugged him before saying goodbye.
Luke, however, knew that this would be the norm in the future. If he wanted to live a more carefree life, he couldn't hang out with them all the time, which would only put them in danger.
Luke calmed himself down and waited for Elsa at the airport for three hours.
Elsa couldn't help but kick off her high heels the moment she got into the car. She complained, "I shouldn't have gone back. Damn it! "
Luke chuckled. "What's wrong now?"
Elsa said, "Tiffany is married and has a son. She's showing off in front of me. She even said that her husband is rich and works as a manager at a three-star hotel in Miami. Looking at her expression, I thought her husband slept with the Hilton Hotel. "
Luke was amused.
Women's desire to compare themselves with each other had existed since ancient times, from the east to the west.
"Unless you want to find someone to marry, it's pointless to be angry." Luke chuckled. "Everyone has their own choices. Since you didn't choose her, why are you angry? With your ability, you can make a lot of money if you do something else, even if it's a private detective who specializes in catching evidence of love theft. You can make more money as a minor agent. Why are you still working so hard? "
Elsa gradually calmed down as she heard this.
She was also blocked by words, but she had no one to talk to.
"That's right. I like this job, and I didn't want to stay at home and get married and have kids. That's why I joined LAPD after college. This is the life I like. I don't need to compare myself to that bitch. "
Luke chuckled and didn't say anything.
Life philosophy was something that was hard to understand.
Some people felt that it was worthless, while others felt that it was above everything else.
In fact, Luke didn't really have any ideals in life. He just wanted to be happy and have fewer worries.
In his previous life, he had basically achieved this because he had been reborn before he had reached the age where he had to think about all kinds of old age issues.
In this life … he would either die in a battle or live an exciting life.
There was no need to think too much because this world would push him forward. Those who did not move forward would only become the background of superheroes. Perhaps they would die silently in the ruins of a war one day.
After picking up Elsa today, the mission could be considered complete.
They didn't officially start work until tomorrow, so Luke was free today.
As he drove, Luke found an address that he had already recorded on his phone, and soon found it.
It was an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Los Angeles.
He crawled through a broken wire fence and walked around the factory. In the end, he had to rely on his Sharp Nose to pick up the faint smell of gun oil before he found a well-hidden basement.
Luke carefully opened the door and activated Sharp Nose. It took him several minutes to enter the basement.
He couldn't guarantee that the violent father and daughter hadn't set up some sort of security measures here, such as a booby trap.
The basement wasn't very big. It was probably a storage room in the factory.
Luke turned on the cold light that he had brought with him and examined it for a moment, before he took out a bag of cash from a toolbox on the table.
He opened the bag, only to see that it was full of rolls of cash. Most of them were worth twenty dollars.
There were twenty rolls, and each roll was worth twenty dollars. That was only eight thousand dollars.
Luke didn't really care. He had picked up a lot of things here for free.
If he hadn't traded with the father and daughter, he wouldn't have been able to get his hands on the dirty money.
He checked the other things, only to find two pistols, a P226 and a HKP7.
There was also a HK416 automatic rifle, which was something between a rifle and a sniper rifle.
There weren't a lot of bullets either, only a little more than 200 in total. On average, there were only 50 bullets per gun. Basically, each gun could fit two magazines of bullets.
Luke didn't find it strange.
This had to be a backup location. The cash and the guns were only for emergencies.
But Luke was tempted when he saw the place.
Perhaps, he could also find a similar location and use it as his secret base?
There were a lot of abandoned factories in the suburbs of major cities like America, which hadn't been visited for many years.
The population wasn't high in the first place, and most people were concentrated in the city center. There was nothing here, so naturally nobody would come.
But after thinking for a moment, he gave up on the idea.
It would take some time to scout out the location. For now, his garage could be used as a temporary workshop, and he could work on the delicate items in another room.
As long as he didn't make anything dangerous or illegal, his villa would be enough for the time being.
Of course, it was only temporary.
Once something confidential was involved, it couldn't be left there, or anyone would be able to see everything.
Luke didn't touch the guns. He simply took out the money and drove around Los Angeles. He bought a lot of tools and supplies with the cash and transported them back home.
Although he wasn't particularly rich yet, he could already make some gadgets for himself. Otherwise, Tony Stark's four elementary abilities, which were worth a thousand credit points, would have been a waste.
What Luke lacked the most right now was the ability to move at high speed.
He could solve this problem with a car on a flat surface, but it would be too difficult for him to deal with the most common buildings in the city empty-handed.
Not to mention anything else, Batman didn't have any superpowers, but with all kinds of gadgets and that black cape, coupled with his powerful physique and agile reflexes, he could move at high speeds in the city.
