The United States was ahead of most other countries in the world, and had entered an era of extreme material prosperity. Most ordinary people didn't have to worry about food and water.
Influenced by all kinds of ideas, some young people liked to court death, and that wasn't an isolated case.
In Luke's previous life, the general public in China had come to a simple and straightforward conclusion about these American youngsters.
That was — they had nothing better to do.
After reporting his findings, Luke asked Selina, "What about you? Did you find anything suspicious? "
"Now that you mention it, there are indeed some suspicious points. For example, the details of the case from a year ago are worth looking into. "Selina patted the case file in her hands.
Turning to one of the pages, she said, "Here, in Sandra's testimony, she only said that she saw Cotton run out of her house. It was ten at night, and her testimony was that she saw the murderer escape from her window upstairs. What do you think? "
Luke thought for a moment and immediately realized what was going on. "Her room was right above the door, so maybe she only saw her back? Also, she saw his back at night. "
Selina shrugged. "That's right. Later, the jacket that was stained with her mother's blood did belong to Cotton, and was found in his house. But when Cotton was found that night, he was drunk, and couldn't tell what he had done. "
Luke rolled his eyes. "Let's go for a walk."
Selina asked, "What do you want to do?"
Luke said, "Hehe, he has tricks, but I have technology."
Selina: "Huh?"
The two of them said goodbye to Bei Li and went out.
Bei was a little worried. Watching them drive away, she called Polk. After a brief silence, Polk said, "Got it. Don't worry about them. They know what they're doing."
What Luke did was very simple.
According to the files, Selina called Polk, and they went to the houses of Billy and No. 10's boyfriend, who was named Stu. They each visited the houses of Billy and No. 10's boyfriend.
After that, Luke hid several cameras in the surrounding trees and aimed them at the house without any blind spots.
He then installed two signal adapters in a hidden place nearby, so that he could receive signals from most places in this small city.
These cameras did not work all the time. They would be turned on at a fixed time every night. This way, they could last for two or three nights.
Luke felt that that was enough. The two high school students didn't seem to have much patience.
After everything was done, the two of them drove back to Polk's house. After washing up, they bade Belle goodnight and returned to their respective rooms.
Luke read the files on the gangs in Los Angeles until four o 'clock before he went to bed.
The next day, the weather was still bright and sunny.
When they arrived at the school, before the two of them even entered, they heard the announcement. "Due to the recent murder case, the school has temporarily decided to take a week off. All students, please try to stay at home during the holiday. Do not go out at will to ensure your own safety."
Some of the students were cheering, some were yelling, and some were whistling. Not many of them were unhappy.
Selina and Luke looked at each other in bewilderment. x2
A moment later, Selina turned her head and faintly asked, "Pretending to be a student? Pretend to be a teacher? Secret investigation? "
Luke: … Bullsh * t! Sibury wasn't doing enough.
While they were speechless, a young man in a police uniform walked out of the school building with two girls.
One of the girls' eyes lit up when she saw Luke. "Ah, it's you!"
The police officer looked at him and was stunned for a moment. "You're … Polk's relative?"
Luke smiled. "Hello, Dewey. My name is Luke, and this is my cousin, Selina. Also, this beautiful girl, may I know your name? "
The girl had a strong chest and a solid lower body. She was one of the best high school students.
She was the number 10 girl from yesterday.
At that moment, she was overjoyed. "I'm Tatum, Dewey's sister."
Luke chuckled. "Hello, Tatum. Nice to meet you."
Tatum rolled her eyes. "Right, there's a party at the Stoos' house tonight. Do you want to come?"
Luke and Selina looked at each other, lost for words. What the f * ck! Wasn't the city on edge right now because of the serial killer? You're actually taking the opportunity to hold a party? That's … interesting.
Luke nodded with a smile. "Okay, we'll head there tonight."
Tatum asked, "Do you need me to lead the way?"
Luke smiled. "No, you still have to spend time with your friend, right?" He looked at Sandra, the girl next to Girl No. 10.
Tatum realized that it made sense, and could only nod regretfully. "Fine. If you don't know the way, Dewey can lead the way."
Unfortunately, she wouldn't be able to chat with this handsome guy anymore. She thought to herself.
After they left, Selina reminded him, "There's no need to rush. Didn't she ask you to meet her tonight?"
Luke said, "Didn't you notice where the party is? I'm thinking about business, alright? "
Selina was stumped for a moment. Then, she recalled what Tatum had said earlier, and immediately understood. "You're saying …"
"If you want to hold a party at someone's house, you have to get the person's permission, right?" he said.
Selina couldn't help but nod. "Then tonight …"
Luke chuckled. "There are two portable cameras in the car. We might be able to capture something interesting if we sneak over tonight."
Selina asked, "Not like when you and Elena were together, right?"
Luke said, "You can take those if you like, but I'll be responsible for recording the hitmen's actions. Sigh, some people are getting more and more impure. "
Selina gnashed her teeth. "Don't you know who's more impure?"
Luke chuckled. "Hehe."
"It's only morning. What are we going to do during the day?" asked Selina.
Luke said, "Just keep an eye on those two suicidal teenagers."
Selina hummed in response and didn't say anything else.
Most detectives didn't solve cases as brilliantly as ordinary people thought. Luke had to use cheats to solve cases quickly.
Normally, two detectives might have to spend days in the car to keep an eye on a suspect, treating the car as a hotel, the seats as beds, and the fast food as dinner.
Luke was better off. He rarely tailed someone; most of the time, he would rather run around and look for clues.
Selina had enjoyed this kind of treatment when she followed Donald around, so she had nothing to complain about.
Everything was peaceful in the morning, and tailing someone was boring.
Thankfully, Luke had set up a signal relay, so they could still drive around town.
They had lunch at a local restaurant in town, and it wasn't bad. Selina didn't complain about the food.
