Sensing Luke's seriousness, Jenny sighed in satisfaction and leaned into his arms. "You're always able to coax me when I'm about to lose my temper."
Luke chuckled. "You're the CEO. Of course I have to coax you."
Jenny hugged him. "No, I think it's better to be a secretary. Do you think it's time for the chairman and the secretary to get down to business? "
Luke picked her up lightly. "Then I sincerely invite the CEO to take a shower and change before we discuss important matters."
Jenny chuckled and leaned her head against his neck. "I've showered a long time ago. Why do you smell so bad?"
Luke said as they walked, "I just got home when you called. I didn't even have time to take a shower after a busy day. Let's go together."
A moment later, there was the sound of water splashing in the bathroom.
Late at night, Jenny, who couldn't even open her eyes, put her arms around Luke and looked drowsy.
Luke's hand caressed her smooth back, and she almost couldn't keep her heavy eyelids open.
Suddenly, she thought of something and forced herself to open her eyes. "Your laboratory has already begun to be set up, but the staff is still slowly being recruited. However, it will take a long time to recruit suitable researchers for a laboratory that is not well-known."
Luke hummed in response. "There's no rush. Just set up the framework first."
"It'll take time to buy the equipment you want. It's true that we can't move quickly." Jenny forced herself to pull herself together. "But most of the equipment you want are high-end products in the pharmaceutical industry. Are you sure our company wants to expand into other industries?"
Luke said, "That has nothing to do with the phone company. It's just my personal research. Even if you're interested in expanding into other industries, that'll be a few years down the road. For now, just focus on the phone company. "
Jenny's doubts were answered, and she finally stopped forcing herself. She mumbled a response and fell asleep.
Luke, however, was full of energy. He opened his eyes and looked at the night sky outside the window. His heart was burning with passion as he thought about the laboratory that was about to be completed.
This laboratory wasn't under the phone company's name, but under Cosmic Cube Technology Ltd.
From this laboratory onwards, the Cosmic Cube Company had become a true research company, not an empty shell of its former self.
Research companies could buy equipment and raw materials through official channels in the name of research and development.
It was normal for a company to buy these things.
On the other hand, if Luke were to buy it in his own name, too many people would definitely notice.
Although the real research core of the company was still him, the recruited researchers could do odd jobs and cover for him.
This idea had been born a long time ago. Even Selina knew that he had always wanted to build a laboratory, but it was only now that it could be realized.
He had waited for this day for too long.
Early the next morning, Luke took a shower and left after Jenny's secretary pounded his back angrily with her little fists.
After he disappeared from the room, the secretary angrily spat at him and condemned him for talking business with her so early in the morning. Then, she quickly fell asleep again.
It was too exhausting to talk business with a certain someone. She needed to go back to sleep.
When he got home, Luke patted Gold Nugget's head with a smile, before he washed his hands and made breakfast.
When breakfast was ready, Selina finished her training and came out of the bathroom.
Sitting at the dining table, she picked up a steamed bun with her chopsticks and stuffed it into her mouth. Only then did she slow down a little. "What's the plan for today?"
Luke poured two steamed buns into Gold Nugget's bowl and said, "Walter is coming to Clinton today to look at the scenes of the explosions. We'll meet him at Central Park."
Selina drank a mouthful of soy milk. "What about Molly's case?"
Luke said, "Analyze the data in the car when you have time. Haley also needs time to treat Molly and find out more about "him." We'll do our own things first. "
Looking at his expression, Selina asked, "Did Miss Jenny help you make money again?"
Luke chuckled. "No, she's helping me spend money."
Stunned, Selina thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Spend money? Don't tell me it's going to be used to build that lab you've been talking about? "
Luke nodded with a smile. "Smart."
Selina smiled as well. She also wanted the lab to be built as soon as possible.
According to Luke, the lab would greatly increase the efficiency of his crafting classes.
This also meant that the speed at which they could upgrade their armor and equipment would be greatly increased.
Thinking about her increasingly cool armor, she was looking forward to the birth of the next set of armor.
After talking about this, both of them left in a good mood.
The weather in New York was finally a little better today. Although there was no sun, the sky was high and the clouds were sparse. The cool autumn wind made people feel refreshed.
They caught up with Walter's car near Central Park. They didn't stop. After exchanging a few words over the walkie-talkie, the four of them went to the scene of the explosion.
It only took them half an hour to check out the first location, and they hurried to the second location.
Luke didn't have much hope in Walter's investigation.
If Kingpin had planned this explosion in advance, there wouldn't be much valuable evidence left behind.
That was because this was the Clinton area, and many things that didn't make sense were the "common sense" here.
However, Walter was an old fox, after all, and Luke wasn't sure if he could find any clues.
But whether or not he could find anything, Walter definitely wouldn't tell Dustin's hardcore subordinate.
Luke and Selina simply stood guard on the side and ate snacks to pass the time when they were bored.
Just as the four of them left the second location, a patrol car sped over and stopped next to their car.
After the two officers got out of the car, they immediately walked over when they saw the badges on Walter and Ricky's chests. "Officers, may I ask why you're here?"
Walter frowned. "Nothing. I'm just here to take a look."
The older officer said, "Sorry, this is an important crime scene. Unrelated people aren't allowed to enter."
Ricky was stunned. He raised his finger and pointed at the badge on his chest.
me！ Unrelated people? This is the first time I've heard someone in NYPD say that to me. "
The officer, however, wasn't ashamed at all. "That's right. It's just like how I can't go to another branch's territory and interfere in their cases even though I'm a police officer. Officers, you're about the same age as me. You should understand that, right? "
Ricky was so angry that he laughed. He wanted to say something else.
Walter waved his hand to stop him from arguing. "I'm Lieutenant Walter Cobb from HQ's Detective Bureau, and I'm also in charge of this serial bombing case. If you have any objections to HQ's division of labor, you can raise them now. I'll relay your every word to HQ. "
