Chapter 313 Trust(1/3)
The next morning.
While sleeping, Luke was awakened by a familiar voice.
[Congratulations to the host for solving a series of bank robberies in North Hollywood, successfully arresting six suspects, and awarding 70 lottery opportunities. 】
Luke rubbed his eyes, yawned, and lay there for another ten minutes before getting out of bed.
After he got up, he washed up first and then drank a glass of warm water.
Breakfast is very simple, just a pot of coffee, a cup of milk, a sandwich, a chicken roll, and an orange. The chicken roll and sandwich can be heated in the microwave, and the entire breakfast is ready in a few minutes.
As long as he is not busy at work, Luke usually has breakfast in the yard. The air is fresh, the environment is good, and he eats delicious food, which will make him feel good all day long.
Luke first ate a chicken roll to fill his stomach, and then the lottery started.
lottery!
The pointer stops and the shielding card [can shield communication signals within 20 meters within ten minutes (can be interrupted at any time)]
Luke drew fifty times and won a total of 6 cards.
They are, 5 new cards and shielded cards.
1 old card, detection card.
Also received a $64,000 bonus.
This time I drew two types of cards, one new card and one old card.
The new card shielding card has an effect similar to that of a jammer. The advantage is that it is easy to carry.
What do you say about the jammer? Most of the time you don't need it, and when you use it you can't find it.
It's impossible to carry this thing with you 24 hours a day.
But once used, it can definitely play a big role.
For example, during this operation to arrest the bank robbery robbers, while escorting Muriel Baldini to work, Luke temporarily guessed that Muriel Baldini might have been kidnapped by the robbers and had a remote-controlled bomb tied to her body.
.
It is for this reason that he has been reluctant to carry out arrest operations.
But if Luke had a shielding card, he wouldn't have too many worries. As long as the shielding card is used, the signal from the remote control will be blocked. Without the threat of bombs, the arrest operation will be smoother.
Detection card [Detects unknown electronic equipment within ten meters of the surrounding area, such as monitoring, listening, recording, tracking and other functional equipment.]
This is an old card, and Luke didn't use it very frequently before, but that doesn't mean that this card isn't very useful.
On the contrary, this is a very awesome card.
Luke has also watched some American TV series, and he discovered a pattern. Many big shots with one hand covering the sky and careful thoughts were defeated by the black materials before they succeeded.
The lack of maturity and caution at that time was partly the reason. The main reason was that if you wanted to succeed, you had to cooperate with others and exchange interests.
Once or twice may not matter, but too many times will inevitably lead to evidence being left behind, monitored, eavesdropped, etc.
If you don't succeed, the evidence may be lost, but once you succeed, the evidence will be the black material that can bring you down.
Luke is not a big shot yet, but if he wants to go further and become a big shot, he will need to establish more relationships and exchange interests.
Just like his relationship with Orti, Luke will use his position to help the Pinkerton Detective Agency do some things. These things will not affect the work of the police station, and he can get a lot of money with just a little effort.
Benefit.
But the disclosure of his conversation with Orti will also affect his future.
Every time he talks to Orti, he will choose a swimming pool, hot spring, etc. where there is water. It may be okay for a short time, but if it continues like this, it will be difficult to increase the trust between the two.
In addition, Orti agreed to Luke's request out of weakness. In the future, Luke may negotiate with people with a higher status than himself, and he cannot let people take off their clothes and talk in the swimming pool.
At this time, the effect of the detection card is reflected, which will not hurt the harmony, but can also prevent problems in the bud.
The fact that it was rarely used in the past can only mean that Luke's level is low and has no use value.
But in the future, as Luke's fame, identity, and status increase, the frequency of use will become higher and higher.
…
In the morning, Luke rushed to the police station to begin the closing procedures for the North Hollywood bank robbery.
Although Muriel Baldini was the mastermind behind this case, it was Sostre who was most guilty.
However, Muriel Baldini's case is not over. The Economic Crime Division has also opened an investigation into her company. If found guilty, she will also face serious criminal charges.
"Dong dong."
At four o'clock in the afternoon, there was a knock on the door at Luke's office.
"Come in."
The door opened and Rhett walked into the office, "Luke, I have good news for you."
Luke guessed, "Am I going to become a regular employee?"
"No, but it's soon."
"That's such good news."
“The General Administration has received notification from the White House that in view of your heroic performance in the Las Vegas shooting incident, the General Administration has decided to award you the ‘Public Safety Medal of Valor’. The award ceremony will be held in Washington on October 22.
congratulations."
"Public Safety Medal of Valor?"
"Yes."
"I thought it was the Medal of Freedom. After all, I don't have law enforcement authority in Las Vegas."
"You are a police officer. This medal is more suitable for you. You are the first in our entire police detective bureau, so you can enjoy it secretly."
"So, I brought glory to the bureau?"
"certainly."
"Is there any bonus?"
"Haha, I will help you fight for it."
"How many can there be?"
"At least enough to cover your trip to Washington?"
"Don't be too stingy in the department. I am going to Washington this time to represent the entire Los Angeles Police Department."
"Then you should ask Frank, not me."
Luke smiled bitterly, "Then I have to be able to see you."
"Get ready. This is a medal awarded personally by the Commander-in-Chief. It is also the highest honor for a police officer. As you said, you are not going to Washington alone this time, but on behalf of the entire Los Angeles Police Department. If you need anything, please
Please let me know.
If you have any difficulties, the bureau will help you solve them."
"Before I go, I want to rest for two days and adjust."
"As long as you explain the work to the deputy team, there will be no problem."
"Can I bring my family members to the investiture ceremony?"
"Of course, this honor not only belongs to you, but also to your family."
"Wow, that's a lot of money."
"Don't even think about asking me to reimburse you for this. The bureau is only responsible for you."
"How many days will I be in Washington?"
"You can spend a few days there and treat it as a trip. I will send you the specific time and arrangements for the award."
"Thank you, Director, you are so considerate."
"However, I have to warn you. Washington is not Los Angeles. Don't act impulsively."
"I remember."
"Very good, I'm leaving." Rhett left the captain's office and said to the team members in the office area,
"Guys, I have some good news for you. Captain Luke is going to treat you tonight."
Luke spread his hands and sent Red to the door of the office.
Xiao Hei smiled and said, "Captain, what are we going to eat tonight? Hot pot?"
Luke was speechless. He was so shameless. He didn't ask me if I wanted a treat, but asked directly what I wanted to eat.
Jackson asked curiously, "Captain, why do you want to treat us? Are you getting married too?"
Luke said, "I'm single."
Xiao Hei felt that these words sounded familiar. How could he be so similar to me back then? How shameless.
The deputy team member guessed, "Have you become a regular employee?"
