Catherine stood up with a smile. Lu Ke also stood up and picked up the cutlery he had used. Catherine would wash them later.
Robert also stood up. "Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll go back to the police station. Luke, you rest at home."
Lu Ke stopped him. "Wait, I'll go with you."
Robert was curious. "What's wrong?"
Lu Ke shrugged. "Since there's nothing else, I'll go with you to do the paperwork. I'll officially start work in a few days. That should be okay, right?"
Robert nodded. "Of course. Your salary starts from the day you start work. But, are you really going today? Don't you want to reconsider? "
Lu Ke said, "I've thought about it for a few days. I've made up my mind. Let's go."
Catherine could not help but interrupt. "Start work? What job? "
Lu Ke smiled. "I think what Robert said a few days ago was right, so I've decided to stay and be a police officer. Are you happy, Catherine? "
Catherine was dumbfounded. After a few seconds, she stammered, "But … but didn't you argue with Robert a few days ago? You even said it's a poor job?"
Lu Ke shrugged. "We're in the countryside. Who doesn't smell like dirt? Eating dirt is better than having nothing to eat. "
Catherine: "…"
Robert: "…"
Catherine could not help but ask, "But you just got out of the hospital. Why don't you … rest for a few days?"
Lu Ke smiled. "Don't worry, Catherine. I was just too excited yesterday, oh, the day before yesterday, and forgot to eat lunch. I'm purely hungry. There's nothing wrong with my body. Besides, I'll still rest for a few days after reporting. Are you afraid that Robert will rush me to work? "
Catherine glared at him. "You can forget to eat and you're telling me not to worry? Oh, wait, I'll make you another lunch. Bring it with you so you don't forget to eat again. "
Lu Ke smiled and nodded. "Then I definitely won't forget."
Robert: "What about me?"
Catherine: "You're bringing lunch today too? Oh, then what will I make for you? Hamburgers or sandwiches? "
Robert: "I'll eat whatever this brat eats?"
Lu Ke smiled and did not say anything, ignoring the jealous middle-aged man.
Catherine quickly made two sandwiches, but the sandwiches were no longer ham, but beef patties. This was the lunch of the two men.
Thirty minutes later, the two of them returned to the small town. Robert parked the car in front of the police station and walked in.
Everything was bigger in Texas, and that was reflected in the parking lot.
Or rather, it should be said that the town did not have a dedicated parking lot. The police station was just a two-story building, and the empty space behind it could fit two to three hundred cars.
However, as a small town with a population of two thousand, there were only twelve people in this small police station, including Robert.
Recently, there was an unlucky guy who couldn't find a wife. He quit his job and went to Dallas, preparing to find love there.
Lu Ke could only say, "Brother, wake up, stop dreaming."
Most of the time, a girlfriend was related to one's face.
In the United States, it was more related to money, but for someone who had neither, even if he went to Dallas, it would still be difficult for him to find a girlfriend.
It was also for this reason that there was a vacancy in the town's police station.
Although Lu Ke himself did not want it, as long as the vacancy was put up, it would be taken in less than a day.
In a small town with a small population, there were not many real affairs, and the danger was far less than in the border cities in the southwest.
A stable and easy job was still very popular.
Robert was giving Lu Ke the green light within his scope of authority.
However, as long as it did not affect his work, he had no problem doing so.
The United States was also a society of relationships, and in many cases, the role of relationships was even stronger than in China.
Robert, who had been the town's sheriff for more than ten years, had the right to give Lu Ke the green light.
It was almost noon, and Robert's arrival freed up the officers on duty. After greeting each other happily, the officers went to a fast food restaurant not far away to eat and chat for two hours.
Robert called over a police officer who stayed behind. "Bob, help Luke with the hiring procedures."
Bob was a white man in his thirties with the typical red neck of a Texan.
Although he was not a cowboy or a farmer, the police also needed to patrol outside often. As a rough man, he obviously did not pay much attention to the sun, so his neck was also red.
Hearing Robert's words, Bob whistled. "Oh, our little Skywalker is actually going to become a police officer. Boss, is today April Fool's Day? "
Robert could not be bothered with him. He just waved his hand and went back to his office.
Bob did not get a response from Robert, but he was not angry. Grinning, he took Lu Ke to go through the hiring procedures.
With Robert around, Lu Ke's information was ready-made. Obviously, he had prepared beforehand.
Lu Ke only needed to sign a dozen documents before the hiring procedures were completed.
Just as he finished signing the last document, the system responded.
Mission completed.
Experience gained: 10.
Credit: 10.
Lu Ke was overjoyed. As expected.
He was in a hurry to get hired today, naturally for the mission.
Facing that retarded system, he could not sit back and wait for a pie to fall from the sky. He had to take the initiative and try to test its mechanisms in order to discover the benefits faster and better.
For example, this mission. He wanted to see if the completion condition was for him to officially start working, or if he only needed to confirm his official police identity.
The result was as expected.
After he signed the last document, legally speaking, he was officially a small town police officer.
Although he had not started working yet, he did have official police identity now.
The working hours only determined the date of payday. It did not affect the completion of the mission.
But … there was no more.
The retarded system once again displayed its retarded nature. After a bubble, it continued to pretend to be dead. It had no intention of releasing the next mission.
Lu Ke didn't mind. He called out to Bob and went out of the building.
Right now, he was extremely excited and wanted some peace and quiet.
Uh, peace and quiet!
Outside the small building, the hot afternoon air was touching, but Lu Ke did not care at all. He just walked back and forth in the shade in front of the small building.
While walking, he was also madly harassing the retarded system.
He wanted to see if he could trigger the next mission.
He had experience and credit. Now, he just had to see when he could level up.
His character level was still zero. This could obviously be leveled up, but he did not know how much experience it would take.
Just as he was harassing the system, he suddenly heard footsteps.
