Luke had handed it over because it was too hot and useless to him, so he might as well hand it over with great fanfare.
Watching Wales and Cheney leave with the helicopter, Luke and Selina waved goodbye in the open space behind the police department.
When asked by his colleagues in the police department, Luke pretended to reply casually, saying that the FBI valued the evidence in his previous case very much, and had sent someone to take it away.
From this moment on, whether it is SHIELD, Hydra, or even the people of Umbrella, they can easily know all of this.
After the T-virus and the serum were taken away, Luke was no longer of any value.
Luke had taken care of all his troubles, and had a peaceful three-day vacation. Nobody else came to question them again.
Recalling that the two fake FBI agents had made them sign a confidentiality agreement, Luke realized that S.H.I.E.L.D. had probably taken over his job.
With SHIELD's confidentiality agreement in place, neither the FBI nor the police could investigate him anymore.
Want to know more? Let's go find S.H.I.E.L.D.
Oh, or maybe they should go to the FBI's 17th Division, which didn't even have an office.
Three days later, Luke and Selina went back to work. When they arrived at the police department, they found that a lot of people were talking about Raccoon City.
However, the incident in Raccoon City had already been officially classified as a nuclear power plant accident, just like in the movies. Clearly, the higher-ups had already reached a consensus on the matter and suppressed it.
As expected, the content of Terry's DV recording had become confidential, and hadn't been reported at all.
Since Director Thomas hadn't informed them, Luke and Selina naturally didn't need to bother him.
Brock had an awful expression on his face when he saw them.
He couldn't hide his emotions at all, or rather, he didn't want to.
He tossed them a file with his deadpan face and told them to go to work.
Luke and Selina behaved normally, as if they hadn't seen Brock's deadpan face at all.
When they returned to their desks, nobody greeted them this time.
Clearly, everybody knew that Brock wasn't happy with them. Nobody was willing to offend their boss for two newcomers who they didn't know much about.
Luke and Selina didn't care. Selina even said in a low voice as she read the file, "You guessed it again. This guy is really … petty. "
Luke calmly flipped through the file. "It's his own fault for being unlucky! Just as I was thinking of something, I was exposed. "
After reading the case file for a moment, Luke casually tossed it on the table and leaned back in his chair. "He's smarter now. He's coming up with trivial cases to send us packing."
Selina picked it up and read it for a moment. She also understood. "It's not surprising that a missing woman case like this can't be solved in a lifetime. Even if we find out, we might not be able to find anything. Maybe this woman ran away because she couldn't stand the domestic violence. "
Luke nodded. "That's right. Let's go. We still have to work on the case and familiarize ourselves with our jurisdiction. This situation is at most temporary. He won't be able to suppress us for long. "
Since they were new here, they needed to get a case from Brock.
However, as long as they were familiar with the area and spread out their own network of connections, many cases would automatically come to them.
Anyone who had watched American TV series like New York's Major Crimes Division would notice that most of the time, the detectives of the Major Crimes Division would leave their contact information to the people involved in the case.
After a long time, such people would contact the detectives directly when they encountered some trouble, and the cases would be solved just like that.
If the detectives could find a few suitable informants, it was possible for them to solve the case on their own.
Since the cases were found by the detectives themselves, they were usually solved by the detectives themselves.
Of course, Brock could also ask for the case and give it to someone else, as long as he knew what case Luke and Selina were working on. But they couldn't always ask for a case.
The case belonged to whoever found it. This was a clear rule.
Unless certain detectives were only good at finding cases but couldn't solve them and caused a lot of trouble, they would lose this right.
Luke and Selina were new here, and he wasn't in a hurry to do this.
It wasn't a bad idea to spend a few months familiarizing themselves with the situation.
In the next few days, Luke and Selina didn't make any progress on the missing woman's case.
They asked the neighbors and colleagues of the missing woman about the case, but didn't find anything.
There was nothing suspicious about the missing woman's husband, either. Thus, the case reached an impasse.
Selina was anxious, but Luke wasn't.
He worked the case every day, and drove the police car out to find a place to practice.
A shooting range was easy. The police department had a shooting range of their own, and it was cheap to practice shooting there.
They also found a private room where they could practice Brazilian jiu-jitsu.
It wasn't hard for the police department to find a place like that. They just needed to check out the environment and the price.
Naturally, they found a small martial arts dojo near the police department. The owner of the dojo was a middle-aged Chinese man, and it was said that he practiced Hong Quan.
Luke didn't really care about that. He simply rented a room from this small martial arts club on a part-time basis.
Business wasn't good at the dojo, and the rooms were often empty. Thus, the owner didn't turn down the offer.
Well, maybe Selina was part of the reason.
A beautiful woman's words were much more powerful than Luke's. The owner of the dojo was satisfied that he could make a small fortune.
After the deal was done, they worked the case every day and trained after work.
Selina's impatience also calmed down when she had a place to exercise.
Every time Brock gave them a new case, he would use it as evidence to criticize them for not being diligent in their work.
Luke even secretly tugged on Selina's sleeve to stop the silly girl from arguing with a certain team leader.
He didn't care about it at all.
It was not something that could be brought to the table, either by Brock or by either of them.
If Brock dared to say that in the hall, everyone in the Major Crimes Division would be the useless trash that he called inattentive trash.
That was because they had a lot of cases that hadn't been solved for months or even years.
Luke simply watched Brock's performance in silence. When Brock was done, he left with the new case file.
But when he left, he was as polite as ever. He didn't even say goodbye before he left with Selina.
Brock's face was dark, but there was nothing he could do.
Luke and Selina had Thomas as their boss, and they had also worked on a major case. There wasn't much he could do to them.
