All kinds of cars from the students were parked by the woodland. There was a bonfire on the beach, and a large group of people were laughing and drinking beer.
Selina was wearing a loose, orange-red bohemian dress, and looked more casual than usual.
Luke was still the same. He was wearing a loose shirt and pants, and a pair of sneakers. He was no different from a middle school student.
Without attracting anyone's attention, the two of them blended into the crowd.
Luke sighed.
Claire could drink as much as she wanted now. Most of the students were over twenty-one years old, and they could easily buy a lot of alcohol. Nobody would stop her from drinking.
However, Claire, who was chatting and laughing with Karen and Hux in the center, was only sipping her beer.
Luke gave her a tick in his heart.
To be able to control herself on such an occasion and not drink too much with them showed that she had good self-control.
In contrast, Karen and Hux were drinking more happily than she was.
There was an external speaker on the beach that played electronic dance music. It was actually an old song by Sheerah.
This big star's popularity had skyrocketed recently, and she was already aiming for the top female singer position.
If what Luke said to her succeeded, she might really be able to become a top female singer. It was just that her methods were a little unorthodox.
But luck had always been a part of the strength of a successful person.
For most top stars, good luck was an essential factor in their success.
Strength alone couldn't guarantee that they would stand out from thousands of competitors.
Looking at the dancing crowd, Luke stretched out his hand in front of Selina. "Can you do me the honor of dancing with me?"
Stunned for a moment, Selina stretched out her hand with a chuckle. "As you wish."
They were surrounded by people dancing or chatting.
The people who were chatting surrounded the fire and watched as the people danced enthusiastically in the middle of the fire.
They were doing the kind of dance where they took off their shirts and shook their bodies crazily.
Of course, Luke and Selina wouldn't join in the fun. They hugged and danced near the edge.
This wasn't a national competition, and no one was showing off their dancing skills. The people dancing on the periphery just leaned against each other and whispered to each other.
It was the same for Luke and Selina, but their topics were a little off.
"Look, someone's hitting on Claire," Selina reminded him in a low voice.
Luke didn't think much of it. "A lot of boys were after her in middle school, and there were even more after she joined the cheerleading team. She knows what she's doing."
Selina said, "She's been hit on by at least four men since we got here, one more than Miss Karen. Hmm, why don't I usually feel that she's so popular with guys? "
Luke chuckled. "What about you? So no one pursued you at Knox High?"
Selina sighed. "It's different. Now that I think about it, the ones chasing me were all Latinos, and the more serious ones were just huddling together for warmth. And those white guys probably think that I'm easy to hook up with. "
Luke exclaimed in surprise. "And then? I seem to recall that Robert helped you deal with a few 'minor conflicts'? "
Of course, this was what he and Robert had talked about after they became colleagues.
Selina chuckled. "I knocked out the teeth of three white boys who tried to drug me. I even got the drugs they were carrying."
Luke immediately understood.
The three boys' teeth had been knocked out, which was solid evidence that she had hit them.
But with the drugs as evidence, the school would be blamed for racial discrimination if they dared to touch her.
"Actually, I was almost persuaded by the teacher to hand over the drugs," Selina said in a low voice. Selina said in a low voice, "But Robert rushed over and rebutted Teacher right in front of me."
Luke hummed in acknowledgment.
Once the evidence was handed over, it was almost inevitable that the school would turn a big problem into a small one.
They might even expel Selina, the "culprit," in order to quickly settle the matter. After all, she was just a Latina.
"I still remember that when Robert entered the office, he immediately locked the door and pointed his gun at the teacher's head, saying," Do you believe that I can kill you with one shot and prove that you were trying to destroy evidence for those sons of b * tches to attack my niece? "At that moment, I suddenly felt that it was so cool to be a police officer." Selina's footsteps slowed down as she stared at the night sky in the distance.
"Niece?" Luke found that odd.
Selina chuckled. "If he didn't say that he was my senior, it wouldn't have been so easy to scare him."
Luke got it. "That's true."
"It wasn't until I became a sheriff in Shackelford that I realized that the police weren't that cool." Selina couldn't help but laugh. "Because Robert was the cool one, not the police."
Luke also chuckled.
That was true.
Even if Robert wasn't the sheriff, he would still be as hot-tempered as he was, and still dare to point a gun at the teacher's head.
Luke still asked, "Didn't the teacher sue Robert later?"
Selina laughed so hard that her whole body was shaking. "I was there at the time. I really thought that if the teacher had said another word, Robert would've blown his head off. After that, the teacher didn't even say a word, and automatically stayed far away from me. "
Luke let out a chuckle.
Robert couldn't be seen at home in this state.
Because Catherine was at home, this rough man never used this violent side on his family.
Selina said, "After I came out, I was quite scared to approach Robert. But after I got into the car, he casually tossed me the gun and told me to play with it. "
Luke: "Huh?"
"It's an air gun," said Selina.
Lost for words for a moment, Luke shook his head. "Can Robert be so cunning?"
"He's not as rash as he looks," said Selina. "Now that I've worked a lot of cases, I realize that his methods are similar to yours. Hm, you don't look alike on the outside, but you're very similar on the inside. "
Luke said solemnly, "Appearance is the key. He's not as handsome as I am."
Selina smacked his back with a smile. "You shameless guy!"
Luke, however, understood.
Selina wasn't wrong when she said that he and Robert did things in a similar way.
Robert knew Flegg, and he must've been in some secret force before. His methods were as simple and fierce as a soldier's, but also as cautious and meticulous as a secret force's.
It was indeed similar to Luke's methods.
Selina was also a veteran detective with outstanding observation skills! Luke was somewhat gratified.
A moment later, he found it amusing. His mentality seemed a little … old.
As far as he could see, it was Claire, who was talking and laughing. Luke had to admit that he was indeed a little old.
Selina was already 25, and he couldn't help but treat her as a junior.
This was especially true for Claire, who wasn't even 18 yet.
