Lost for words for a moment, Selina said, "Lu … Hm, Terminator, I understand. I'm just … Hm, it's just that it's my first time on a mission with you, and I'm not used to it. "
Luke chuckled. "Then you'll have to get used to it."
He understood that Selina and the dog head, the Los Angeles Knee Breaker duo, often cleaned up hooligans until they didn't even have a pair of underwear left. How could they let go of their money?
This was the first time they were playing a robbery game tonight, and Selina subconsciously curbed her mischievous behavior in front of him.
As long as her real identity wasn't exposed, he didn't care if Selina took the money or not.
He didn't even know how much money he had cleaned up.
Apart from the two hundred million dollars from Hernan, the bigshot in Rio, Brazil, he had looted at least fifty million dollars from other gangs.
He couldn't be bothered to count the money, and threw most of it into his inventory to collect dust.
Selina's loot wasn't even a fraction of what he had.
A moment later, they left the warehouse in an old Ford that belonged to one of the gang members.
A lump of black stuff started to whimper in the backseat.
Selina could only comfort it. "Kim … Hm, Hellhound, don't worry. Terminator said that you'll get a share of the loot, okay?"
Luke casually tossed the bag of cash he had just received into the backseat, proving his point with his actions. The black thing immediately became obedient.
Only then did Selina ask Luke, "Will it be very uncomfortable with that thing on its body?"
Luke said, "It's definitely more uncomfortable than not wearing it, but it's much more comfortable than wearing this armor. After all, it doesn't need to be bulletproof. It's mainly camouflage and stealth."
The Hellhound in the backseat barked in agreement.
Selina looked at it. "How does it feel to have money?"
"Woof."
She turned around. "Okay, it's just not used to it, but it doesn't feel uncomfortable."
Luke simply listened to her and the dog head talk with a smile as they drove to their next target.
For their next target, he was still just an enforcer, and only reminded them of the necessary safety rules.
It was up to Selina to plan and execute the plan.
This was to a large extent to prevent the two of them from using similar methods.
At the same time, this was also Luke's training for Selina.
With what had happened recently and the date of their trip to New York approaching, he had to give her more ability to protect herself.
Battle armor was one of them.
Tony's creation of the Iron Man Armor was a pleasant surprise. This gave him more technology to create new armor.
Although Selina had Gold Nugget to protect her, Gold Nugget had its weaknesses.
He didn't want Selina to charge around with Gold Nugget's super regenerative ability. If anything went wrong, she might end up in trouble.
Using armor to protect Selina, who was in symbiosis with Gold Nugget, was the best choice.
It was just like how he had [Elementary Self-Healing], but he had always protected himself with a full set of armor and a bulletproof vest.
Even though Luke had tested his Elementary Self-Healing many times and proved that it was extraordinary, he wouldn't use it as a regular method in battle.
Of course, the more he hid this life-saving ability, the better.
That was why he didn't say anything even though Selina had never shown him Gold Nugget's complete symbiotic form.
This was not a matter of trust between the two of them.
Based on his understanding of Selina, it was very likely that there was something wrong with the symbiotic form, such as … becoming ugly?
Just like that, the two of them swept through seven or eight small gangs.
Although Luke's contribution rate was only around 50% with Selina's help, he still earned almost 2,000 experience and credit points.
The host's experience has reached 62620/90000.

At one o 'clock in the morning, the two of them sat side by side on the rooftop of an apartment building in their armor with the street below them.
Their masks were open, and they both had lollipops in their mouths as they stared at the lights of downtown Los Angeles in the distance.
Selina was reluctant to part with them. "We're going back."
Luke said with a smile, "We'll come out in two days. We beat up more than a hundred hooligans today. We have to let the doctors and nurses in the hospital catch their breaths. "
Selina couldn't help but smile. "That's true."
After a brief hesitation, she asked, "Can't I take care of this armor?"
Luke hugged her. "It's just a framework and only has basic functions. I still have to perfect it. Do you want to wear it to work?"
Selina knew that he was telling the truth, but she was still reluctant. "This is my first armor."
Luke rocked her. "It'll be better in a few days, and I'll modify it according to the style you like. You know that my aesthetic standards are always a little off."
Selina hummed and didn't say anything else.
…
The next morning, they had breakfast, trained, and went out as usual.
Luke noticed that Selina was smiling a lot.
She used to be very cheerful, but she hadn't been smiling as much because of all the things that had happened recently.
Today, she finally recovered a little.
Luke didn't know if it was because of their conversation at dinner or because of their "play" last night.
But he had enough time to verify the question.
They went to the private hospital again. Today, they finally met Jennifer, the "great fortune in misfortune."
The last time Luke spoke to her, she had been in a daze and on the verge of death, and hadn't seen Luke's face at all.
Elizabeth was guarding the ward.
No matter how worried Dustin was about Jennifer, he had to deal with the backlog of work.
When Luke and Selina entered, Jennifer's eyes immediately fell on him.
After a brief look, she smiled. "You must be Luke."
Luke smiled and extended his hand to her right hand, which didn't have a needle. "Hello, Jennifer. I can finally introduce myself to you. I'm Luke Coulson, a detective in Westside's Major Crimes Division. "
Jennifer was still smiling. She raised her hand, and the two of them shook hands.
Luke was about to let go of her, but Jennifer grabbed his hand hard. "Luke, thank you."
He nodded. "Got it. You're welcome."
Jennifer smiled. "You're just like Dustin said."
Luke shrugged. "Whatever he says. After all, he's the boss."
Finally, she let go.
Selina stepped forward and exchanged pleasantries with Jennifer.
Only then did Jennifer look at Elizabeth. She seemed to want to say something but was hesitant.
Luke guessed what she wanted to talk about, and simply gestured at Elizabeth.
Elizabeth got up with a smile. "I'm going to buy breakfast. Can you look after her for ten minutes?"
Jennifer nodded. "Thank you, Elizabeth."
Ten minutes later, Y'lisabet took a look outside the ward and saw Selina waving at her.
After she came in, Luke got up and said goodbye. "Rest well. Leave it to us."
Jennifer nodded tiredly. "Okay, thank you."
Luke smiled. "It's just my job."
