It wasn't that Elsa was hard to get along with, but that the iron lady was too intimidating, and most male detectives didn't want to be intimidated by her.
Luke and Selina were the only ones in the Major Crimes Division. Nominally, they were Elsa's subordinates, but in fact, they were more like friends.
Luke and Selina were the only ones in the Major Crimes Division. They were Elsa's subordinates in name, but in fact, they were more like friends.
So, the backyard became a playground for the three women in the afternoon. Luke simply kept the barbecue warm and went back to work.
He didn't get a tan, and he only sunbathed occasionally to keep Selina company.
Since she had company today, he decisively snuck off to the basement to play with his hobby.
Suddenly, he received a call. He hung up after a few words, before he put down the tools in his hand helplessly.
After greeting them in the backyard, he drove out and completely gave the house to the three women.
It was from Jenny, who sounded rather "angry." He could only talk to his old secretary and new CEO.
He arrived at the hotel and found the room number that Jenny had given him. The moment he entered, Jenny pounced on him and bit him all over.
Luke smiled apologetically and didn't resist.
After venting her anger, Jenny panted in his arms and said, "What the hell are you? The mine is already producing that glittering stuff, and you didn't even ask about it? Aren't you scared that you'll be tricked? "
Luke chuckled. "I still have you, don't I?"
Of course, he couldn't say anything. Bobby, the human detector, had been keeping an eye on him.
Nobody except Luke knew that Bobby had mental abilities, and naturally didn't know that the gold mine was under Luke's surveillance.
At this moment, the gold mine was working under the supervision of Jenny, Bobby, Chris and Samantha.
It was only then that Jenny slowly told him about the company's recent developments.
The new mines in Boom Town were already producing a considerable amount of money.
After only ten days of work, they had already made hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Jenny didn't manage the gold mine much. She simply formalized the structure.
There was a template for it. As long as she supervised it properly, she didn't need to do anything else.
Jenny, who had inherited her parents' excellent business talent, had completed most of her courses after crazily tutoring in the last half a year. She wasn't far from graduation.
Now, her energy was mainly focused on building the framework of the cell phone company.
For the time being, the cell phone company was also using the money she had invested to carry out the initial operations.
She pressed Luke's hand and said solemnly, "I only have enough money to last me until the product goes on sale. Even that's a little difficult. What's your plan?"
Luke said with a smile, "It's fine. I've got some income recently. I'll invest it in the phone company."
Jenny glanced at her. "How much?"
"Five million," said Luke casually.
Jenny: "…"
However, after Luke invested the money, Jenny said that her shares would be reduced accordingly.
However, this was not the only problem facing the cell phone company.
"Your phone needs network support to use those new and convenient functions, right?" she asked.
Luke nodded.
"But I've checked. There's no large-scale and systematic wireless network in the world yet. Once our phone is produced, it'll be ahead of the curve!" she continued.
Luke thought for a moment. "What do you mean?"
"This thing needs a big group to build, and we definitely don't have enough money. Even if we invest all the income from the gold mine, it still won't be enough, "said Jenny.
Pondering for a moment, Luke said, "Look into Weyland Corporation. I remember that it's a major corporation involved in international communications, right?"
Jenny was stunned. "You want them to start building and promoting a wireless network?"
Luke said with a smile, "It doesn't cost anything to try. You have to let them know the benefits of building a wireless network. "
At that point, they were done talking about the boring stuff, and Luke and Jenny finally got down to business.
They talked for a long time.
When Luke returned home the next morning, Selina wasn't home again. Naturally, Dollar wasn't either.
Luke had learned about this through text messages the day before.
Elizabeth had been a little excited yesterday, and got drunk at Luke's place. She had even dragged Selina to her place and said that they would talk all night.
Selina didn't refuse the offer.
What Elizabeth wanted to talk about was actually related to the gold mine.
When the gold mine started producing, her mother Samantha's 5% share in the mining company had turned from paper wealth into real money.
Elizabeth learned from her mother Samantha about the recent profits from the mine.
Even though she had mentally prepared herself many times, she still couldn't control the numbers.
But as cautious as she was, she didn't want to talk to unrelated people, so she could only talk to Selina.
Luke? Never mind then.
As Luke's first student, the smart Elizabeth had long noticed that Luke was actually distant on the inside, even though he was usually gentle.
She didn't dare confide in him.
Since the three gluttons weren't home today, Luke only made a simple breakfast for himself and left with a box of takeaway food.
Selina would go straight to the police department with Elizabeth that morning. He didn't have to wait for her.
When he arrived at the police department, he found that Selina and Elizabeth weren't there yet.
He didn't bother to call them.
With Gold Nugget around, it wouldn't be easy for anything to happen to Selina.
It was more likely that Elizabeth was too drunk.
After delivering lunch to Elsa, Luke sat down in front of his computer.
Sonia, the female detective and intelligence specialist, came over.
Luke pointed at the food box on the side. "Help yourself."
Sonia grabbed two brown paper bags, opened them, and clicked her tongue. "What's this? Lobster? "
Luke said in a low voice, "King crab. Eat it quietly."
Sonia's lips moved, but she didn't bring up the topic again. Instead, she said, "I've got some news. Do you want to hear it?"
Luke gestured for her to pull a chair over and sit down. He then took out two bottles of guarana from his drawer and gave one to her. "Of course I want to hear it. Here's your fee for the information."
Sonia rolled her eyes, but still opened the bottle and drank it. She said, "There are two main things. First, a 'vigilante' has appeared in our district in the last two weeks. "
Luke paused with the juice in his hand and didn't say anything.
Sonia said, "According to incomplete statistics, this' vigilante 'sent more than two hundred street gangsters to the hospital in the last two weeks. Of course, the hospital only treated 213 gangsters, and most of them didn't go to the hospital. "
Luke raised an eyebrow. "So hardworking? How many of those scumbags died? "
Sonia sighed. "Not a single one. Most of them had their legs broken. Only the gangsters who tried to attack with guns got their hands broken. The worst of them only had 'five limbs.' "
Luke's eyes widened and he smacked his lips. "Five limbs?"
