Selina's eyes lit up. "That's great. Take a notebook and write down the names of all the people who came to the party. Also, try to persuade the kids not to leave. Got it? "
Lu Ke nodded. "Of course, but what if they leave by force?"
Selina said, "Then write down the names of those who leave. You should know who they are, right?"
Lu Ke said, "That's not a big problem. I'll go get busy. Oh, remember to tell Robert that I'm helping. "
Selina didn't say much. She nodded and went back to maintaining order.
She first had to calm the emotions of the people living there, and at the same time, let them all go to Lu Ke's to register.
Not long after, there was another scream. A moment later, a stretcher covered in white cloth was carried into the ambulance.
Clearly, the girl, Michelle, was dead.
There was a commotion in the crowd. Many people were already preparing to leave.
Humans were sensitive animals. If they sensed something was wrong, they would usually choose to leave and go home.
Lu Ke was very busy, but fortunately, he had Jimena as his girlfriend.
Jimena was a cheerleader, and Michelle was the captain. Jimena had a few close friends who were also cheerleaders.
Now that Michelle had suddenly died, the cheerleaders began to help Lu Ke maintain order under Jimena's suggestion.
They knew many girls and even more boys. Most of the time, they only needed to say a few words and they would choose to stay.
After all, they were all students and didn't have such complicated thoughts.
It was normal for the police to ask them to stay after someone died.
It was fine if they ran away before, but if they ran after the other party said goodbye, they might be suspected of being guilty.
Also, if they didn't run away, they could use the opportunity to chat with the girls. Although it wasn't as fun as at the pool, it wasn't boring. They could also find out some gossip about what had happened that night. Why not?
After another ten minutes, almost all the police officers in the town had arrived. Other than the prettiest police officer on duty, everyone else was here.
Robert was having a headache.
What he was most afraid of wasn't a murder, but that there were too many people at the crime scene.
From the registration information, there were already more than 200 people at this high school gathering.
What was even more annoying was that apart from most of them being graduates, there were also some second-year high school students who were under the age of 18. In the end, there were even three second-year middle school girls who were under the age of 15.
Yes, these three were the legendary chuunibyou girls. They were in the second year of middle school, which was equivalent to the eighth grade. They had been brought by one of their cousins to broaden their horizons.
Come to think of it, after tonight, these three girls would definitely face a miserable summer vacation. It would be strange if their parents didn't deduct all their pocket money. They might even be grounded and given labor education.
But that was a problem for the parents to worry about. What Robert needed to worry about was that these minors definitely couldn't be kept for too long. At most, they had to be released one after another before midnight. Otherwise, it would be even more troublesome if something happened.
This also meant that the investigation of the girl's death would be a pain in the ass.
There were more than two hundred children, and it would take more than half a year to go to one house a day. Most of the graduates would be traveling or going to universities to study.
What could Robert do about it? He was also in despair!
After busying himself for a while, he managed to settle everything before midnight. Only then did Robert return to the police car with a tired look on his face.
Lu Ke was also standing there, exhausted. There was a girl beside him.
Of course, Robert knew Jimena.
Although he often quarreled with Lu Ke, he cared for him a lot. Hence, he already knew about Jimena and Lu Ke's relationship. He even had a general understanding of the situation.
He knew that Jimena wasn't the kind of girl who would mess around, so he didn't ask Lu Ke about their relationship.
Now, he looked at Lu Ke and asked, "Do you want me to count you as officially starting from today?"
Although Lu Ke was tired, he smiled and said, "No need. I'll start counting tomorrow."
Robert smiled bitterly. "Thank you very much. I'll definitely have a lot of things to do tomorrow."
Lu Ke gestured to Jimena beside him. "It was all thanks to Jimena's help tonight. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to deal with those troublesome guys."
Robert nodded at Jimena. "Thank you, Jimena."
Jimena was also very tired, but she also smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just helped to maintain order. It's what I should do."
Lu Ke said, "It's too late. Let's send her home to rest first."
Robert nodded, opened the car door, and the three of them got in.
After sending Jimena home and watching her enter, Robert waved at the woman who was waiting at the door to welcome his daughter. "Sandra, let her rest well. She helped me a lot today."
Sandra was Jimena's mother. When she heard Robert's words, she only smiled and waved before closing the door and entering the house.
The police car started moving again. This time, they were going home.
Robert suddenly said, "You were at the scene. Did you find anything?"
An image flashed through Lu Ke's mind, but he said, "I'm not sure. Also, Michelle was found in the pool. It's possible that she drowned. "
Robert sighed and said, "Tomorrow morning, come with me to the police station. When you officially start work, come with me to Knox City's forensics department to take a look at the autopsy."
Lu Ke was silent for a moment before saying, "Going to the morgue on my first day of work. You're so sweet to me."
Robert laughed loudly. "Rascal, you'll have to get used to it sooner or later as a police officer."
Lu Ke sighed and reclined his seat so that he could lie more comfortably. "There's a saying that goes — work is like being raped. If you can't resist, then close your eyes and enjoy it."
Robert was stunned for a moment before he laughed again. "I was right about you, kid. You were born to be a police officer."
Lu Ke rolled his eyes in the dark car. "Are you saying that the police are all unlucky people who can't resist and are forced to enjoy it?"
Robert choked on his laughter. After a moment, his embarrassment turned into anger. "Alright, now I think you should be a lawyer. Your mouth is just as vicious as theirs."
Lu Ke said, "Haha, I want to." After that, he didn't say anything else.
Regardless of whether he could enter a university to study law, as long as he had the Super Detective System, it was impossible for him to be a lawyer. He would never be a lawyer in this lifetime.
After returning home, Lu Ke quickly took a shower and threw himself on the mattress to sleep. He was exhausted today.
The next morning Catherine came up and woke him.
