Why are you still in Los Angeles? And did you fight in the last two days? "Luke smelled blood from the wound on her waist.
It was a sign that the wound had burst open.
Bloodmint put the gun aside and was silent for a moment before she said, "It's been too chaotic in the last two days. What will happen to them if I leave? "
She looked out the window at the slums.
Luke sighed silently. Was this woman the reincarnation of a saint? She was already living such a miserable life, yet she still remembered to protect these people she had never met before.
He typed: "Go. Come back after hiding for at least a few months. I'll keep an eye on things here for you."
Bloodmint was silent, and her eyes were conflicted.
Luke continued typing: "Alex's arrest has attracted the attention of the police, and it's the best time for you to leave. After the situation calms down, the police will start investigating you. You'll be discovered sooner or later. "
Bloodmint finally heaved a sigh of relief. She was at a loss. "But where can I go?"
Luke thought for a moment, then took out a key and a piece of paper with a long string of letters and numbers printed on it. He gave it to her. "To Rio, Brazil."
Bloodmint looked at him strangely. "What's this?"
"The secret key and password to a safe at a private bank in Rio. There's cash inside, enough for you to hide for a long time," the announcer continued.
"I can't accept it." Bloodmint frowned and was about to give it back.
Luke raised his hand. "It's not hard for you to get the money, but to avoid the police and the Fraternity's investigation, it's best if you don't do anything. Take the money and live out the rest of your time. "
Bloodmint still shook her head. "I'll leave. I don't need this."
Luke chuckled and typed: "Consider it a loan. After this, you can pay me back with interest if you want. But you'll have more choices if you have enough money, so don't refuse. "
Looking at Bloodmint, who was still hesitant, Luke thought for a moment, then added, "Rebecca stayed in Rio for a while. She was in a good mood when she left. Maybe you can too?"
Bloodmint's heart skipped a beat. After hesitating for a while, she finally nodded. "Consider it a loan."
Luke nodded in satisfaction. "If possible, don't give up on your training, or you won't be able to defend this territory when you come back."
Bloodmint was speechless.
Later on, she heard from the little girl about how more than thirty people from the Garcia Clan had died.
This "Puncher" was far more powerful than she had imagined. No wonder he said that he was close to Rebecca.
People who were weak couldn't earn Rebecca's respect.
Luke said, "Remember, leave Los Angeles in two days."
Bloodmint: "Are you in such a hurry?"
Luke said, "I'll clean up this area. A lot of people will definitely come here to look for clues."
Bloodmint: "… Got it. I'll leave the day after tomorrow at the latest."
Luke asked, "You promise?"
Bloodmint smiled bitterly. "I promise."
Luke nodded in satisfaction. "You can watch the L.A. news even when you're out of town. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Bloodmint: "Huh?"
Luke didn't say anything else. He opened the door and left quietly.
Helping Bloodmint had only been a convenience. He had given her the password for the secret key from Pedro, the mini boss in Rio.
Back then, Luke hadn't thought much of the two million in cash, and had only taken the password with him.
Now that he was recycling, it wasn't a bad idea to give it to Bloodmint.
She was a quasi-assassin from the Fraternity, and could barely be considered an extraordinary human. She didn't show any mercy when she killed criminals, but she was kind to strangers in the slums, which was in line with Luke's values.
Considering Bloodmint's character, she wouldn't lose out on this investment.
It was also for this reason that Luke was willing to give her a heads up before the purge, in case she got caught up in it.
Bloodmint could be considered ruthless, but her strength limited her imagination.
If she wanted to protect an area, she couldn't just passively defend it. Thinking that, Luke's eyes flashed coldly.
It was basically peaceful on the east side of Los Angeles that night.
Smelling the aroma of food through the crack in the door, Selina yawned and mumbled, "You leave the door open every time you go out."
Getting out of bed and putting on a T-shirt, she glanced at Gold Nugget's luxurious doghouse and was even more displeased. "How many times have I told you to sleep if you don't look at the tablet? It's almost out of battery, but it doesn't charge. Has Gold Nugget reached puberty? Why doesn't it listen to anything I say? "
That being said, she still plugged in the tablet and paused the American TV series she was playing before she went to sleep.
But when she saw the intense battle on the tablet, she wanted to hit the dog again. What's the point of watching this? It's not like you're a human.
Cursing the dog head in her heart, she wandered off to wash up and brush her teeth.
It was still dark outside in Los Angeles, but she had already slept enough.
Now, she went to bed before midnight and got up at five in the morning, and was still energetic for the day.
The advantage of getting up early was that she could leisurely have breakfast, read the news and files for an hour, and do morning training for an hour before she and Luke left for work. There was plenty of time for breakfast.
Coming out of the bathroom, she went to the kitchen.
As usual, Gold Nugget sat at the kitchen door and received products from Luke every now and then.
When Luke asked it if it tasted good, it simply nodded in response.
Hearing the noise, Dollar turned its head and immediately came over to curry favor with its little master.
Gold Nugget didn't stop it. This was Dollar's instinct; if it was stopped, it would be depressed for a while, and Gold Nugget would also be troubled by its emotions.
Besides, Selina's appearance meant that breakfast was about to start, and it didn't have to rely on desserts that couldn't fill its stomach.
Food was still wolfed down at the dining table.
After it was done, Gold Nugget looked at Luke eagerly.
Luke ruthlessly dispelled its delusions. "Claire's portion is on the stove. That's not even enough to fill your teeth. If you want to eat, I can only give you some raw beef and seafood. "
Gold Nugget decisively gave up.
It actually wasn't that hungry; it was just craving food.
Claire's appetite was much smaller than theirs, and the two steamers of dumplings on the stove weren't enough for it.
Luke rubbed the dog's head with a smile. "We'll go to the bakery later and buy you a Napoleon cake, okay?"
Gold Nugget nodded in satisfaction.
Selina, however, mumbled, "This guy has reached puberty. It won't listen to anything I say. I should cut off its snacks for two days."
Gold Nugget bristled. "Woof!"
Selina was surprised. "Why are you swearing?"
Gold Nugget immediately wilted and whimpered.
Selina pointed at it. "See? It watches HBO every day, and now it's actually learned to swear."
Gold Nugget was lost for words. It had really learned it from TV shows. It was probably just words like f * * k.
Luke sighed. "Gold Nugget, don't tell me you've really reached puberty?"
