Of course, this was just his speculation.
But Lu Ke felt that in the future, as long as he found a bad guy and tried to defeat him again and again without killing him, he would be able to see if the person would start to have bad luck.
After the bad luck left, Robert's efficiency also increased.
Four months after Lu Ke started working, Robert called him and Selina into his office.
Seeing Lu Ke close the office door, Robert picked up two documents from the table and handed them to the two of them.
Lu Ke looked at the documents and was stunned. "You finished it so quickly?"
Selina, on the other hand, was astonished. "Westside Houston Major Crimes Division? Boss, you … how did you do it? "
Robert's expression was indifferent. "Are you ready?"
Lu Ke hummed and looked at Selina. "You … are going to be transferred to Houston too?"
With a smile in her eyes, Selina raised the corner of her mouth and said, "Why? Are you disappointed that you didn't throw me away? "
Lu Ke scratched his head. "I … I'm just not sure if you're willing to leave here."
Selina was curious. "That's Houston, a big city. More importantly, the salary there is much higher. "
Lu Ke was speechless.
Most people wanted to work in a better place. There was nothing wrong with that.
Robert watched the two of them finish talking and said, "Okay, there's no need to say anything else. Do a good job and don't embarrass the Shackelford Police Department. "
Selina asked, "When are we going?"
Robert said, "Anytime, but no later than five days. You can't let your future boss wait for you."
Selina laughed. "I'm fine. I can leave in three days at most." She looked at Lu Ke.
Lu Ke hesitated for a moment and nodded. "We'll leave in three days."
Robert didn't say anything else. He nodded and waved for the two of them to leave.
With the transfer order, the two of them left the police station and got into the car.
Selina looked at Lu Ke, who was a little distracted. "What are you thinking about?"
Lu Ke came back to his senses. "Nothing. I just didn't expect Robert to finish our transfer order so quickly."
Selina nodded in agreement. "That's right. I thought it would take at least a few months or even half a year when he told me to get ready."
Lu Ke: "Will it take that long?"
Selina chuckled. "If you're transferred to Houston as an ordinary police officer, driving a patrol car or even a motorbike every day, ten days will be enough. But we were transferred to the Major Crimes Unit! Just the salary alone is much higher than that of an ordinary police officer. "
Lu Ke chuckled. "So, you're only thinking about the raise?"
Putting aside the farewell party at the police station, there were not many jealous colleagues in the small-town police station. After all, most of them were old police officers in the small town, and they did not want to go to Houston to start over.
There were advantages and disadvantages to big cities. The police there were more dangerous, more burdensome, and more competitive pressure.
Unlike here in the small town, there were only a few overtime shifts a year. As long as one didn't make any mistakes, one could always be a police officer.
Besides, Lu Ke and Selina didn't get there just because of their connections.
The two of them had performed well during the Carlos Family's revenge incident.
Faced with the surprise attack of ten AK-wielding gunmen, not only did they not turn into a hornet's nest, they even wiped out the entire team.
Even Selina, who was more of a bystander, had shot and injured a gunman. Not to mention, at the beginning of the gunfight, she had dared to fight six or seven gunmen alone.
In that situation, ordinary rookies would have wet their pants, and timid old police officers would not have dared to stick their heads out against six or seven AK-wielding gunmen.
Lu Ke was even more exaggerated. He was a high school graduate who had only been on the job for two months, but he had killed thirteen gunmen, one of whom was the leader.
None of the gunmen he had targeted had survived. Those who were injured but not dead were all shot by him.
With just this resume, other than Robert, no other police officer in the small-town police station had the right to compete with him.
Lu Ke was also Robert's child. If Robert wanted to send his own child out, who could stop him?
Whether it was his ability or his connections, Lu Ke was the toughest in the small-town police station. Who wouldn't accept that? Even if they didn't accept it, they had to hold it in.
Lu Ke didn't care much about the others. Only Catherine and the two little ones needed him to comfort them.
Ever since he had woken up in this world, he had been living with Robert's family.
He had never called Robert or Catherine "Mom and Dad" because Catherine was his own aunt.
In fact, the relationship between the family was no worse than other normal families.
There was Robert's generosity and Catherine's kindness and intelligence. They had always maintained the family atmosphere well.
But now, it was finally time for Lu Ke to move forward alone.
He had thought about this day many times, but he wasn't sure when it would be.
According to his original plan, he would still be in university for a few more years. At that time, there would be four years of university as a buffer, and everyone would slowly get used to not seeing each other every day.
But now he was going out to work, and it was in the Key Case Investigation Unit of the West Houston Police Department.
How busy was the Key Case Investigation Unit of a big city police station? There were endless cases waiting to be dealt with, and Lu Ke would definitely have very little time to come back in the future.
Catherine and the two kids would have more opportunities to visit him.
However, although Catherine's eyes were filled with reluctance and more complicated emotions, she didn't show much of a reaction.
On the other hand, Joseph, who often bickered with Lu Ke, couldn't help but cry.
Claire was a little better. She didn't cry in front of him, but there were two days when she woke up, her eyes were a little red.
No matter how reluctant they were, the day of separation had finally arrived.
Lu Ke didn't show much emotion. It was just like how he usually went to work. He even asked Catherine to make him an extra lunch sandwich before saying goodbye to everyone with a smile.
Today, Robert didn't go out on time. Instead, he followed Catherine and the two kids to see Lu Ke and Selina off.
After waving goodbye and watching the car drive away, the youngest Joseph couldn't help but ask, "When is Luke coming back?"
Robert: "Well, he'll come back when he has the chance. Besides, as long as you guys are on holiday, you can still visit him. You can also go to Houston to play."
Okay, Robert's words were a trap for himself.
Because after the holidays, the two kids asked him if they could go to Houston to play.
Selina drove out of the town and asked, "Why do you still want me to drive the car when you bought it?"
Lu Ke: "Because your driving skills are better than mine."
