"Pour me a cup of coffee, thank you." Comparing the benefits of making hundreds of thousands and losing millions, John decisively gave up on this meaningless regret and asked, "Are you interested in that girl just now?"
As he spoke, his usual poker face was gone, and he winked at Luke in an extremely wretched manner.
Luke found that odd. "You've never cared about Bill's private life. Did you take the wrong medicine today?"
John's lips curled up as he gestured outside. "You're so open and aboveboard in front of Selina … cough, cough. How brave of you, bro! Hehehe. "
At the mention of this topic, his expression became even more animated.
Luke poured a cup of coffee and placed it in front of him. "I dare. Do you dare? "
John's mouth opened wide. He really wanted to say yes, but thinking back, he didn't seem to have any experience in this.
He had a guilty conscience when he boasted about such things.
Luke said, "I know that Jessica from before. It's just a small matter for me to help her out. Do I have to help that married couple?"
Comparing the two sides in his mind, John put himself in Luke's shoes, and felt that there was indeed nothing wrong with what he said.
When he handled the case, he subconsciously favored Jessica.
A young woman with outstanding looks, who was pitiful and didn't talk much, was always more pitiful than a middle-aged man who had a lot of nonsense and secretly hired a man and a woman.
After chatting for a while, the two of them went back to their own things.
Chatting was just to explain the small case to each other, and John's gossiping heart had indeed overflowed.
Looking at Luke and Selina, who looked normal in the office, John could only admire them. Young people nowadays were really bold and wild.
Back then …
A certain half-bald, middle-aged man suddenly remembered that he didn't have a romantic history worth boasting about back then. His first girlfriend in high school always ended up quickly dumped.
Then, he recalled that his wife had really dumped him recently. Everything was over when one was middle-aged! The half-bald detective became even more depressed.
Luke, on the other hand, mumbled to himself, Jessica doesn't seem to be in a good state of mind. Is this because the effects of the hypnosis last time have worn off?
Mental illness was a complicated and troublesome problem.
Even with Basic Psychology, Basic Hypnosis, Elementary Mental Communication, and 40 Mental Strength, he didn't dare say that he could cure a certain mental illness.
But a few days later, the confidentiality period for the case at the pier in the park was over.
Just revealing the news of Kilgrave's death wasn't a big problem.
Mental illness wasn't that simple. Even if Jessica knew that Kilgrave was dead, there was no way she could recover.
However, this should be able to affect her greatly. It was not impossible to alleviate part of the symptoms at the root.
On the other hand, Kilgrave's victim, Molly, could be consulted with Dr. Haley.
Now that Kilgrave was dead, he had to contribute his last bit of value. Otherwise, how could he atone for all the crimes he had committed?
Thinking that, Luke took out his phone and called Haley.
Dr. Haley had only said that she was free this afternoon and that he could buy her lunch.
Luke was very surprised by this request. He couldn't help but ask, "I just introduced you to a client yesterday, and you want me to treat you today?"
Haley was stunned for a moment before she broke into laughter. "Okay, it's my treat."
When Haley arrived at the restaurant after work at noon, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she saw Luke and … Selina already sitting inside.
Well, at least she didn't have to worry that Detective Luke would have any improper thoughts about her.
She had already guessed that this would happen.
No wonder your "wife" is so at ease with you. You even brought her to lunch with a beautiful woman. You're really … as timid as a mouse. Although she was despising this cowardly mouse in her heart, Haley's expression was very normal.
After everyone finished their lunch, they took the opportunity to enjoy dessert before they started to talk about business.
"You want to know about Monroe's condition, right?" Haley said straightforwardly, "His condition is very interesting. It's an atypical form of schizophrenia. I suspect that he …"
After talking for a long time, she finally woke up from her professional trance and saw that the two people in front of her were bored to death.
Luke sipped his coffee lazily, while Selina ate her strawberry sundae, spoonful by spoonful.
Haley sighed. "You're not here for Monroe!"
Luke smiled and looked around. He then took out a file from his bag and pushed it over. "I'm more concerned about Molly's condition."
Frowning, Haley picked up the file and opened it. "She's really in a bad condition. She might need a long time to recover. Unless she saw Kilgrave die in front of her … uh, right? "
Luke shrugged. "That's the problem. I can lead the way, as long as you're willing to take her to the morgue to identify the body. Otherwise, I won't be able to bring him back to life and make him die again. "
Faced with a certain someone who looked like a guide, Haley was lost for words. She read the description carefully and couldn't help but ask, "Did you kill him?"
Luke said, "The file says that the Detective Bureau just happened to find his body in a certain case."
Haley also read the description and shook her head regretfully. "He's really dead? That's a pity. "
Luke asked, "What's the problem? Is this bad news for Molly's condition? "
"No, this is definitely great news." Haley shook her head decisively. "Of course, if she can see Kilgrave's body with her own eyes, her condition might be greatly alleviated. I'll think about taking her to the morgue. It can be one of the backup plans. "
It was a pity that such a strange existence had died just like that. To think that she had been planning to study him. She mumbled inwardly.
Luke nodded. "One week. His body will be in the morgue at the forensics center for a week. "
Haley said, "I'll be able to come up with a plan the day after tomorrow at most. One week is more than enough."
Luke said, "I hope you can keep in touch with me about Molly's treatment. I want to know how effective this information is."
Haley frowned. "Why?"
She didn't like it when other people interfered with her patients, even if Luke was the one who had sent the patient.
Luke said, "It's better to finish what you started. After all, I saved Molly, and Richard isn't a bad guy."
Haley felt that there was nothing wrong with that.
It was very common for detectives to have a close relationship with their victims, and it was just as likely for doctors to have a close relationship with their patients.
Luke had Selina's "personal guard," and the chances of him having a romantic relationship with Molly were very low. That was just an ordinary situation.
People tended to care a little more about cats and dogs that they had personally saved.
Thinking that, she said, "Okay, I'll let you know when it's effective."
