Luke didn't care about their expressions. He simply pointed at the blonde and the old man and said, "These two are the" people "who fired …" shot "Bruce. Of course, you can take a look at this lady's thighs. I shot her twice just now. "
The FBI agents' gazes fell on the blonde's fair legs.
The miniskirt was unable to cover her thighs, and as she stood with her arms akimbo, her black windbreaker was lifted to the side of her waist, so the two greyish black holes were clearly visible.
The little Asian old man looked at his annoyed companion and sighed. "Both of you, these are our IDs." As he said that, he took out an ID and threw it to Charles.
Charles caught it and took a few glances at it. Then, he took out an instrument and scanned the document. The instrument made a brief beep.
He threw the ID back to Flegg helplessly. "Fine, we'll contact your superiors. If Agent Flegg has no objections, you can go."
The blonde raised her head arrogantly at Luke and made an international gesture before she turned around and left.
Luke scoffed. Who's afraid of who?
He lowered the gun in his hand.
Pa!
"Ouch, that hurts! You damn b * stard, I'm going to kill you! " There was a hole in the blonde's butt, and gray smoke slowly drifted out. She couldn't help but clutch her butt in pain as she jumped around.
The old man smiled bitterly. "Detective, if you keep this up, we'll file a complaint."
Luke shrugged. "Go ahead. Remember to send me a copy of her injury report."
The old man was lost for words. He grabbed the bouncing blonde beauty, caught the ID that Flegg threw at him, and quickly left.
Watching them leave in the Chevrolet Laguna, Luke looked at Charles and Flegg. "Gentlemen, let's call it a day, shall we?"
Charles and Flegg didn't look too good, but they both nodded.
Both of them were friends with Luke, and it was thanks to Luke that they were able to catch Bruce earlier. Although their efforts were in vain in the end, it wasn't Luke's fault, and there was no need to target him.
Luke nodded. "Then I'll be on my way. I'll leave this to you."
He didn't want to get involved in all the trouble that Bruce had caused along the way.
Now, it was unknown how many people would report or complain. A conservative estimate would be no less than seventy to eighty families. Some of these families had their windows broken, while others had their walls caved in. The third floor of the Odyssey Hotel had a huge hole blown up.
Luke didn't want to be the scapegoat.
He gestured to Charles to make a phone call, and he got into the car and returned to the hotel.
He saw Jeff and Karen at the entrance of the hotel, and Luke drove over. "Do you need a ride? The two of you. "
Jeff and his wife were pleasantly surprised to see him back. "Are you alright? That's great. "
Luke said with a smile, "Of course it's fine. Don't mention it again. Someone will be here to ask you to sign a confidentiality agreement soon."
Jeff and his wife looked nervous. "Really?"
Luke nodded. "Really, but you have to keep your mouth shut after signing the agreement. By the way, where are Tim and Natalie? Okay, I saw them. "
On the other side, Tim and his wife also drove out and parked next to them.
Luke gestured for Jeff and his wife to get into the car, and the six of them went home.
When they reached Jeff's house, Luke got out and asked Tim, "You'll clean up the mess, won't you?"
Tim thought for a moment. Realizing that Luke and Jeff had almost gotten into trouble with the operation tonight, he revealed something. "We have contacts in the FBI. They'll clean up the mess. Don't worry."
Luke raised an eyebrow. "Flegg?"
Tim and Natalie looked at him in surprise. "You know him?"
Luke nodded and said, "I met him once. Today's the second time. That should be fine. Everybody, go back and get some rest. Good night. "
He then waved his hand and drove off.
Selina looked at the rearview mirror and saw Tim and Jeff and Karen talking to each other before hugging each other. She couldn't help but ask, "Say, when did Natalie and Karen start having an affair?"
Luke shrugged. "You spent more time with them. How would I know if you don't know?"
Selina frowned and thought for a moment. "But I don't think they had the time! We were always together that day, except in the changing room. But that's too short. How can it compare to Jeff and Karen's ten-year relationship? "
Luke couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Selina looked at him in confusion.
He said with a smile, "That's just Karen talking nonsense. There's nothing going on between them. It was just a trick to attract the criminals' attention. If we hadn't done anything, Natalie and Tim would've done it. "
Selina was stunned. "But why do I feel that Karen is telling the truth?"
Luke sighed. "That's why I say that Karen is very talented. It's a pity that she's a housewife. She's so paranoid … Tsk, she'll definitely notice if someone has a guilty conscience. "
Selina smiled too. "Of course, she suspects you even if you don't have a guilty conscience."
Luke said, "So, it's not a bad thing for a woman to be a little paranoid, as long as she doesn't use it on her husband."
Selina thought for a moment, then shook her head. "It's also a good thing that Jeff is so honest that Karen can't be paranoid. She would've divorced Danny a long time ago."
They chatted on the way home.
After Selina left for training, Luke took out his phone and called Charles. "I know you'll be busy, so I'll be direct. Who are those two people?"
Charles was stumped for a moment when he heard Luke's straightforward question. He then smiled bitterly. "I can't say that casually."
Luke said, "Charles, after they were shot, they were exactly the same as Bruce's monster. If I run into them again, should I beat them up like Bruce, or let them go like you did? "
After a brief silence, Charles said, "How about I ask Captain Wales for his opinion, and I'll give you an answer. How does that sound?"
Luke said, "If it's a secret, I won't ask. At most, I'll beat them up first, and then let you know for sure."
Charles said, "… Thank you for your trust, Luke."
Luke hung up the phone with a smile.
He wasn't surprised by Charles's answer.
A monster that could ignore gun attacks definitely wasn't a small matter. Charles and Flegg's attitude also suggested something.
At the very least, Charles's S.H.I.E.L.D. and Flegg's Joint Advanced Research Unit were familiar with the agencies that the two blondes belonged to. They even had official contacts, which was why they could confirm their IDs.
