Selina rummaged under the seat and pulled out something that looked like a vest. "Here, this should be of some use."
Stupefied, Jenny watched Selina throw the vest over her head.
A moment later, she tore off the vest and hesitated for a moment when she saw the huge white "PD" logo on it, but she gritted her teeth and put it on.
Selina glanced at her in the rearview mirror before she said, "This is a nice bulletproof vest, isn't it? It's bulletproof and warm."
Jenny was lost for words. Did you notice that the hemispheres under my armpits were exposed to the air when you said that? Also, my butt was cold, and it wasn't covered at all!
Unfortunately, it was the only thing in the car that could be considered clothing.
Jenny was still a little cold. She could only put the towel around her neck to block the gap so that the heat wouldn't escape from her neck.
While the two women were having an unfriendly conversation in the car, Luke was having an even more unfriendly "conversation" with the WD36 gangsters outside.
Looking at the gangsters who were cowering and hiding, Luke didn't intend to kill them.
It was mainly because Luke had come up with this case on the spur of the moment, and it would be troublesome if he started a massacre.
This wasn't Westside's jurisdiction, either, so Luke hadn't killed them in the first place. He had only injured them at most.
If he really wanted to deal with these guys, it would be the least troublesome to deal with a missing person case.
No bodies, no blood, and no reports. For the police department, there was no case at all.
Finally, with a series of squealing noises, two police cars sped over from afar.
The WD36 gangsters in front of the house were clearly panicking. Some of them had already turned around and fled, and those who hadn't were looking for a way out.
However, there were always people in this world who weren't in their right minds who were asking for trouble.
The two police cars were still dozens of meters away, when the fleeing gangsters opened fire at the police cars.
The two police cars hurriedly pulled over, and the officers quickly got out and shouted, "PD, you're surrounded! Drop your weapons and get down on the ground!"
Of course, nobody listened to him, but the four officers who got out of the police cars had already raised their guns and opened fire at the gangsters two seconds after they shouted.
It was obvious that they were just going through the motions! With a smile, Luke sat on the roof of a house further away and watched the show.
Since the vanguard had arrived, he didn't want to attack anymore.
After confirming that Jenny had been kidnapped, Luke's actions today had been intentional.
Injuring more than ten gang members was already very obvious, and the rest would be left to the backup police to deal with. By then, it wouldn't just be his problem, and the police who participated in the incident and wanted to share the credit would automatically share some of the responsibility.
No responsibility, no credit. If you want credit, you have to take responsibility.
In a gunfight like this, responsibility and credit were equal.
A few minutes later, police sirens blared, and more than ten police cars arrived one after another, surrounding the area.
Luke knew that it was basically over. More than thirty police officers had arrived at the scene, and WD36 only had seven or eight men left. They wouldn't be able to hold out much longer.
Also, the longer they held out, the heavier the crime would be.
Only then did he slip back to his car, open the door with an electronic remote control, and quickly got into the passenger seat. He turned around and smiled at the trembling lady. "Hello, Miss Gwenis. It's an honor to see you again."
Miss Jenny hesitated. "Ah, I-I'm glad to see you again, Detective Luke."
Luke said, "Can you tell me what happened today?"
Jenny opened her mouth, as if she couldn't bring herself to say it.
Luke shook his head. "Jenny, look, I didn't read you the Miranda warning, and we're not interrogating you in the police department. This is just a private conversation. What you say will not be recorded. We just want to know what caused this incident today. After all, more than ten people were lying on the ground. We have to give an explanation. "
Hesitating, Jenny hugged herself even tighter, and finally explained the situation.
It wasn't complicated. She wanted to buy some weed in secret, so she went to WD36's back door to make the deal, but they suddenly arrested her.
Luke found it odd. "Why would they arrest an old customer like you?"
Jenny had been a customer of WD36 for a long time, and she was willing to spend money.
If his guess was correct, the pound of weed that was delivered to Sheerah had been ordered by Miss Jenny, except that it had somehow been delivered to the wrong place.
Three times more than the market price. Why would they touch Miss Jenny if this business was so easy to earn?
Rich people in America weren't to be trifled with! Jenny's father, in particular, was a financier with a net worth of at least hundreds of millions of dollars and a lot of friends.
Jenny, however, fell silent again.
Selina, who had been watching enthusiastically on the side, suddenly lost interest. She rolled her eyes and quickly gestured at Luke.
Luke thought for a moment, then nodded. He got out of the car and got back in the backseat.
Then, he took off his jacket and put it on the pitiful and trembling girl. "Do you feel better now?"
Jenny lowered her head and didn't say anything. A moment later, she suddenly jumped into his arms and burst into tears.
Selina gave her a hand gesture and continued watching the show.
Luke snorted and caressed Jenny's back.
It was a way to calm someone down, and it was actually similar to petting a cat or dog.
Very soon, Jenny's crying turned into sobs. Luke took a pack of tissues from Selina and wiped Jenny's face. "Okay, it's okay. You're safe now."
His voice was gentle and steady, like a hypnotic baritone on a midnight radio station.
Jenny had cried a little too hard just now, and now she couldn't help but burp. She accepted the tissue that he handed over again and buried her head in wiping her face.
A moment later, she said gloomily, "My … dad found out about what happened last time. He replaced my bodyguards and told them to keep an eye on me, so that I wouldn't buy anything from these people. But I couldn't take it anymore in the past two days, so I contacted them. To avoid the new bodyguards, I pretended that I was still asleep in the morning and snuck out the back door. "
Luke and Selina looked at each other and chuckled. Wasn't that just asking to be killed?
Jenny lowered her head and couldn't see their conversation. She continued sobbing, "Who knew that I didn't even know the people who came this time, and they came to arrest me after they got the money?"
At this point, she fell silent again and did not say anything for a long time.
