Chapter 87 Suspicious Fingers(1/2)
Evening, Daisy's house.
Luke cooked dinner. He wanted to make some Chinese dishes, but Daisy's family didn't have the seasonings for Chinese food.
In a hurry, he didn't buy anything and simply cooked a few simple Western dishes.
Western food feels fresh when he first eats it, but after eating it for a long time, Chinese food is more suitable for his appetite.
Luke thought about buying a set of kitchen utensils and seasonings when he returned to his new home, and improving his meals from time to time.
Don’t people live just to eat, drink and have fun?
Eating comes first, and you can't let your stomach suffer.
No matter how delicious the vegetables sold outside are, they are not as comfortable and comfortable as the meals you cook yourself.
Luke prepared four dishes, fried lamb chops, boiled prawns, vegetable salad, pasta, and a bottle of red wine.
The two of them were eating and chatting.
Daisy took a sip of red wine and said, "Isn't the bureau busy recently? You still prepared dinner for me so thoughtfully."
"The case has been solved and the suspect has been caught. I can just relax and take care of some things."
"Did you catch the pervert who installed the camera in my house?"
"Of course, I caught him with my own hands and shot him. This guy is not discharged from the hospital yet."
"Huh... God, I finally caught this bastard, and I can finally sleep peacefully." Daisy breathed a sigh of relief.
Luke smiled and said, "With me staying with you, won't you be able to sleep peacefully?"
"With you here, I feel at peace in my heart, but... my body is not idle."
"Life lies in movement, doesn't it?"
"Then I can't exercise every day. I'm tired from working every day. I wish I could sleep on the dining table right now."
Luke grabbed Daisy's soft left hand and said, "You can't always think about work, you must learn to relax yourself properly. Next week, let's go out and relax together."
"Where to go?"
"It doesn't matter, as long as I'm with you, everything will be fun."
"It depends on the situation. I have to handle the case before I take a break. Otherwise, I won't be able to go anywhere."
Luke nodded, "By the way, now that Cole has been arrested, it's time for me to leave."
There are still some leeway if you take the initiative to mention some things yourself.
It would be embarrassing if the other party mentioned it.
Anyway, the two have already established a relationship, so it won't have much impact.
"Thank you for your hard work during this time...
Of course, I have no intention of driving you away. If you are willing, you can stay for a while."
"I have rented a new house. It is not very far from your home, about ten minutes' drive. In the future, we can also have multiple dates."
Daisy picked up the wine glass and said, "It sounds pretty good. When you finish packing, take me to have a look."
Luke smiled and said, "Just watching is not enough, I also want to hear about your trial experience."
…
The next morning.
There was light rain falling in the sky.
Luke looked at the beauty lying beside him and listened to the clear and sweet sound of rain outside.
Fell asleep.
I guess I'll have breakfast outside.
This is not a problem.
The problem is that it’s raining today, so riding a Harley to work will definitely make you soaked in the rain.
When the oil painting bonus is discovered, the plan to buy a car will be put on the agenda. It is very inconvenient to have no transportation in Los Angeles.
"Jingle Bell……"
The cell phone rang.
It's David's number.
"Hello."
"There's a case, where are you?"
"Are you coming to pick me up?"
"Stop talking nonsense, we need to go to the crime scene immediately. The captain is urging us very hard."
"I'm at Daisy's house."
Luke got up to wash up, woke up Daisy, and said a few sweet words. The car horn sounded outside.
"Didi..."
"I have to go, see you tonight."
"Got a mission?"
"Yes." Luke kissed Daisy's forehead and left Daisy's house.
It was still drizzling in the yard, and the fresh air was blowing against his face. He quite liked this weather, which was perfect for sleeping in.
Luke got into the passenger seat and David stepped on the accelerator.
"Are you planning to eat soft rice?"
"I have this capital, it's useless for you to be jealous."
"As someone who has been there, I advise you not to live in a woman's house. It's okay for a short time, but over time..."
Luke interrupted his nagging, "I've already rented a house."
"Good, you are more enlightened than that guy Marcus."
"Don't compare me with him." Luke spread his hands and changed into a comfortable position and leaned back, "What case?"
"Riley Harry was shot."
"Should I get to know her?"
"She's the congressman from California's third district."
"Wow, what a big shot."
"Yeah, there must be more reporters than police around the scene. Get ready to be on TV."
…
Maca Community.
This is a high-end community, and a swimming pool is standard. Those who can live here are either rich or expensive.
Both Luke and David were here for the first time, but they easily found the congresswoman's house. Just as David guessed, there were already many TV station cars parked near the congresswoman's house.
The reporters surrounded the door with guns blazing, like sharks smelling blood.
The patrol officers had already set up a cordon and were released into the yard after showing their police badges. A "click-click" shutter sound could also be heard.
The yard is very large, with a small garden on the left, a swimming pool on the right, and a beautiful two-story villa in the middle. The design is very modern and the tall floor-to-ceiling windows are very beautiful.
In the lobby, Deputy Director Reid was on the phone.
Susan was also on the phone.
Deputy team members, Raymond and Marcus are at the search site.
Jenny is comforting an Asian woman.
The survey team and forensics have also arrived, and the entire scene is busy and orderly.
After greeting everyone, Luke also began to inspect the scene.
A white woman was lying in a pool of blood, wearing a home pajamas, her hands and feet were tied, and there was a big bloody hole on her head, which looked a bit scary.
The cabinets in the living room were all opened, and a lot of sundries were thrown to the floor, making it a mess.
There were some shoe prints made in the mud and water around it, extending all the way to the door.
Jenny shouted, "Luke, I need your help."
"What's wrong?"
"She is Huifang Wang who reported the case. She is of Chinese descent and her English is not very good. She can only speak some simple sentences and it is difficult to take notes."
"Leave it to me." This is the importance of knowing another language.
Who else would I be?
