Los Angeles Detective

  Chapter 338 Newcomer

  The next morning.

  Luke returned to work in the bureau after a few days off.

   In the past few days, the No. 1 Squadron has not taken over any new cases, and is still handling the closing procedures of previous cases. The experienced deputy team is more than enough to handle these trivial matters.

  After chatting with the deputy team, Luke held a morning meeting and simply arranged today's work.

  Luke himself returned to the office to play with his mobile phone. Generally, as long as there is no case investigation, he will fish for it.

  After ten o'clock in the morning, Luke's cell phone rang, "Director."

   "The person you want has arrived, come to my office to get him."

   "I'll be right there." Luke hung up the phone and left the office.

  Since Susan left, the No. 1 Squadron has been short of manpower. Luke proposed to increase manpower to the bureau. Reid sent Luke several candidate materials to let him choose by himself.

   "Guys, the bureau has arranged for us new players, please pay attention and make a good impression on the newcomers."

  Xiao Hei asked, "Is it a man or a woman?"

   Luke said, "Female."

  Xiao Hei asked, "Are you pretty?"

   "Of course." Luke said.

  Xiao Hei straightened his collar, "Oh, then we really need to tidy up to make a good impression on the beauty."

  The deputy team curled their lips, "Marcus, you are already married, so there is no chance."

  Luke pointed to the seat next to Xiao Hei, "Clean up that station, and let the new team members sit there soon."

   "OK, I'll clean it up, it's easy." Xiao Hei volunteered.

   "Very good." Luke left the office without saying a word.

  Luke walked outside Rhett's office, knocked on the door, "Boom."

"Come in."

  After Luke entered, Reid was sitting on the sofa talking to a white man in his thirties.

Reid stood up, "Let me introduce to you, First Squadron Captain Luke Lee, your immediate superior." Reid said to Luke again, "This is your new team member Porter Harfield. "

  The white man stood up, "Captain Li, nice to meet you."

  Luke shook hands with the other party, "Just call me Luke, can I call you Potter?"

"certainly."

   "Director, do you have any other orders?"

   "No."

   "Then I will take people away."

   "Potter is a good player, don't complain about the lack of manpower this time."

   "I can't guarantee that." Luke doesn't think he has too many people.

  The more people there are, the more opportunities there are to catch fish. As for the issue of funding, that is something that Reed only needs to consider at this level.

  Out of the director's office, Luke asked, "Potter, you used to work as a night shift detective in the Southern Bureau?"

   "Yes, Captain."

   "Did you fulfill the position of detective at that time?"

"Yes.

   I was wounded in action and transferred to the civilian service for almost a year.

  But I still like being a detective, so I took part in the detective assessment again.

  I thought I was going to be a detective in the Southern Precinct, but I didn't expect to be in the Robbery and Murder Division.

   When I got the notification, I was thrilled that this was my dream opportunity.

  Thank you Captain.

  Thank you for giving me this opportunity. "

   "Potter, I am very optimistic about you and have chosen you from many candidates.

  However, the Department of Robbery and Murder has relatively high requirements for police officers. If you want to truly integrate into this department, you can only start as a police detective. "

   "I know, I am mentally prepared for this."

   "I hope you will adapt to your new position as soon as possible."

"I will."

   "Very good." During the conversation, the two came outside No. 1 Squadron, and Luke patted him on the shoulder, "Come in, I'll introduce my colleagues to you."

  As soon as the two entered the office, everyone looked over.

  Others are fine, Xiao Hei clearly showed disappointment on his face, and muttered something in his mouth.

  Jenny was a little surprised, and whispered to Jackson on the side, "Wow, he looks very stylish."

  Jackson squeezed his eyes, "It's really handsome."

   It can be said that several families are happy and others are sad.

  Luke ignored everyone's small thoughts, and introduced, "Guys, welcome our new colleagues."

   Luke took the lead in applauding, "Potter, introduce yourself."

   "Yes, sir."

Porter Haffield looked at the office and several team members, cleared his throat, "My name is Porter Haffield, I am very glad to meet you here, I used to work in the Southern Division, and it is an honor to be transferred here to work with We work together…”

Porter Haffield finished his self-introduction, and Luke introduced the rest of the team to him, "This cool old man is our respected Deputy Vincent, and also the old partner of Chief Reid, if you don't understand something, you You can ask him."

  Vinson's deputy team still looked flabbergasted, "To be exact, Rhett was with me for a while, and I was already a detective when he first came to the police station."

  Luke didn't give him too many opportunities to show off, and continued to introduce other people, "Detective Raymond, Detective Marcus, Detective Jenny, Detective Jackson, Detective Matthew."

  After the introduction, Luke ordered, "Jenny, take Potter to get acquainted."

   "Captain, leave it to me."

"very good.

  Potter, my office is inside, you can find me if you need anything. "

   "Yes, sir."

  There is one more person in the team, which makes it easier for Luke to fish.

  …

  After get off work, Luke went to the Vaughn Jiu-Jitsu Club to train.

  Luke made an appointment from 6:00 to 9:00 in the evening. In order to arrive on time, he got off work 20 minutes earlier.

  Natasha Vaughan is a standard female man, her arms are almost as big as Luke's, and she is bigger than ordinary men.

  When practicing jujitsu, Luke no longer regarded her as a woman, and Luke was often subdued by her during confrontation training.

   Of course, with every practice session, every fall, Luke improves.

  After seeing Natasha, Luke uses his third and last Ju-Jitsu card.

   But it’s not a big problem. The detective system has been upgraded to a redemption system, and you can use the points to exchange for the cards you need. As long as you want to practice jujitsu, you can continue to use the points to exchange.

  With the blessing of the Ju-Jitsu card, Luke learned very quickly. Yesterday he had mastered the theory and basic movements of Jiu-Jitsu. Today, he mainly focused on confrontation training and some skills of hugging, locking the throat, and exerting force.

   Each confrontation training lasts about 20 minutes. After the 20-minute confrontation, Natasha will spend five to ten minutes explaining the essentials of the movements and where Luke made mistakes, and then rest for ten minutes before training.

   Every time he confronts training, Luke will make obvious progress, which makes Natasha a little surprised at his talent.

   You know, Luke was just a jujitsu rookie yesterday, and today he has mastered a lot of jujitsu skills. Although he is still not proficient and has many loopholes, it is impossible to easily subdue Luke.

"Jingle Bell…"

  Around 8:40 p.m., Luke's cell phone rang.

  Natasha let go of Luke's collar, "Let's have a rest."

   It's not easy to fight against Natasha with Luke. Luke's physical advantage is obvious, and he is a full level higher than her.

  Luke wiped the sweat from his forehead with a dry towel, picked up his phone and looked, Daisy's number was displayed on the screen, "Hello."

   "Lawrence Miller is blocking my yard. Do you have time to come over now?"

   "Are you in danger now?"

   "I'm still in the car, I didn't get out of the car."

   "I'm going now.

  You protect yourself, if there is danger, drive away first. "

   "Okay, I see." Luke hung up the phone, "Coach, I have something to do, so I have to go first."

   "Are you still coming tomorrow?" Natasha asked.

   "I may not have time tomorrow."

   "Your Jiu-Jitsu talent is very good, as long as you keep training for a period of time, there will be obvious improvement, and you even have the potential to become a black belt."

"I see, I will practice privately when I have time." Luke is worried about this precisely, because of Ju-Jitsu cards, Luke has a strong learning ability, and may only need a few Ju-Jitsu cards and practice a few times. You can achieve the results of years of hard work by others.

  This is a good thing, but it should not be too ostentatious.

  Luke decided to come back to practice after a while. Even if the improvement is obvious, there will be a certain buffer period, making Natasha think that Luke is practicing in private and wants to secretly surprise everyone.

  Even if he is hiding his clumsiness, Luke's talent is already amazing.

   After leaving the jiu-jitsu club, Luke drove to Daisy's house.

  He was already a little impatient with Lawrence Miller, and was going to solve this trouble once and for all.

  …

  Daisy's house.

Lawrence Miller stood in the yard with his arms crossed, his face still clearly bruised, and shouted at a white car, "Hey, why don't you get out of the car? You just don't want to see your own baby." Father?"

  Daisy said through the car glass, "You've been drinking, I don't want to talk to you today."

   "Yes, I was drinking.

  Why don't you ask me why I drink? Lawrence Miller asked loudly, "My lawyer daughter not only despises me, but also cooperates with outsiders to deal with me."

   That boyfriend of yours is an asshole, he let his men beat me up.

  Look at my face, it was swollen by his men.

  I drink because I'm sad and I can't figure out why God did this to me? "

  Daisy asked, "You said Luke had someone beat you up?"

   "Yes, isn't he afraid to admit it?"

   "I heard what he said. He didn't want this to happen, let alone ordered it.

what have you done? Why did that person beat you? "

   "There's no **** why, the fact is that I got spanked.

   And he was with that guy.

  Your father was beaten, but you sat in the car indifferently. Is this what a daughter should do? "Lawrence Miller knocked **** the roof of the car.

   "You are drunk, you have nothing to talk about, leave my house."

   "What a cold-blooded guy.

  I know you look down on me and want me to **** off.

   You go to curry favor with that rich stepfather, am I right Daisy Cruise? "

  Daisy glared at the other party, "If you don't leave, I will call the police."

Lawrence Miller stretched out his thumb, "Wow, what an amazing daughter, in order to curry favor with the Cruise family, she watched her brother go to jail, and now she wants to send her father to prison, haha. "

  Daisy's complexion became more and more ugly, her eyes were red, but there was nothing she could do about him.

   "Woooooooooooo..."

  A black Mercedes-Benz G500 drove over and stopped at the gate of the yard. The cab door opened, and Luke got out of the car with a bottle of whiskey, "Hey, Lawrence Miller, why are you here?"

   "I'm here to find my daughter, is there a problem?"

  Luke shook the whiskey in his hand, "You interrupted our two-person world, I wanted to have a good drink."

   "So, you want to hit me again, here, in front of my daughter?"

   "Oh, it seems that there must be some misunderstanding between us." Luke looked at Lawrence Miller, "I heard that you were beaten, but I don't sympathize with you.

  After I learned that you were going to Cruise Manor, I immediately stopped you halfway. I made it very clear at the time that I was not harming you, but helping you.

   I gave you the money and told you to go away.

  But you violated our agreement and detoured to Cruise Manor from other directions.

  You have been spotted by other security personnel, and they will not be as polite as I am.

  You're sure to get punched.

   This is why I blocked you.

  I was protecting you, but you failed my good intentions.

  You owe me an apology. "

   "I...Even so, they have no right to beat me up."

   "That's the grievance between you, it has nothing to do with me. You can find him to take revenge."

   "That **** not only beat me up, but also took the five hundred dollars you gave me."

  Luke showed a look of surprise, "He stole your five hundred dollars?"

   "Don't you know?"

   "I'm not familiar with him, that's the money I gave you, why should he take it away?" Luke showed dissatisfaction on his face.

  Lawrence Miller added fuel and vinegar, "He also called you a fool, saying that you are not giving me money, but giving him money for nothing.

   And threatened me not to tell you about it. "

  Luke snorted, "If this **** dares to steal my money, then I have something to do with it."

  Lawrence Miller said helplessly, "I was beaten by him just to keep the money you gave me."

   "Sorry, I had absolutely no idea about this.

  I still have some cash here..." Luke felt a little guilty, took out his wallet, and rummaged through it, "I went to buy wine just now, and I ran out of money, only forty dollars left. "

  Seeing Luke taking the wallet, Lawrence Miller was quite happy, but when he saw that the wallet was empty, his face drooped again, "Why is the **** wine so expensive?"

   "This is the bottle of whiskey. I bought two bottles and spent more than four hundred dollars. It is definitely the best whiskey."

  Lawrence Miller swallowed, "More than two hundred bottles of whiskey?"

"Would you like to taste it?"

"why not?"

  Luke pointed to the plastic round table in the yard, "comeon, the moonlight is good today, let's have a drink in the yard." Luke patted Daisy's car, "Go get two cups and appetizers."

   Daisy just got out of the car, exchanged glances with Luke, and walked straight into the villa.

Not knowing whether he was persuaded by Luke's words or attracted by the whiskey, Lawrence Miller softened his attitude towards Luke and complained, "See, she doesn't think of my father at all. "

  Luke lowered his voice, "Just get used to it, women are like this."

  Luke opened the whiskey, and Daisy came over with two wine glasses and a bag of peanuts, put them on the table and turned to leave.

  Luke poured two glasses of whiskey and handed one to Lawrence Miller, "Cheers."

  Lawrence Miller picked up the glass and sniffed it, and drank it down with a look of enjoyment on his face.

   Luke took a sip and ate a peanut.

  Lawrence Miller also picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth for a 'crack bang bang'. Lawrence Miller chewed a few times and complained, "It's too hard."

  Luke got him another glass of wine and joked, "Obviously, this appetizer is for me alone."

  Hearing this, Lawrence Miller snorted again, picked up his wine glass and took a big sip.

   The two were drinking and chatting.

  Lawrence Miller had already drunk before coming to Daisy's house, and he was even more drunk at this time, "Luke, you are a good person.

   That five hundred dollars you gave was important, but got snatched by that jerk.

  My heart is very sad. "

  Luke persuaded, "Don't worry too much, it's just five hundred dollars."

   "It may not be a big deal to you, but it is very important to me. I need the five hundred dollars, I really need it." Lawrence Miller pursed his lips, looked at Luke,

   "Can you lend me some more money?"

   "I'm out of cash now, wait until next time."

   "I'll take it as you agreed."

   Luke smiled and said nothing.

   "I toast." Lawrence Miller picked up the glass and took another sip of the wine, feeling a little more drunk.

   In less than half an hour, the two drank a bottle of whiskey, and Lawrence Miller drank most of the wine.

  Luke got up and said, "I'm done drinking, and the party is over today, I'm going back to sleep."

   "Gulu..." Lawrence Miller hiccupped and patted his forehead, "Good wine, I haven't had such a good wine for a long time, don't you still have a bottle? Hurry up and take it out."

   "I can't drink anymore, I have to go to work tomorrow." After Luke finished speaking, he went straight to Daisy's house.

  Lawrence Miller yawned, "I'm a little sleepy too, can I stay here?"

   "No, we have other shows." Luke smiled and entered the house.

   "Fuck!

   May you die on a woman's belly sooner or later. Lawrence Miller staggered into the car, started the black Honda, and drove into the community road.

  Luke stands by the window and watches.

  Daisy also came over and asked, "He's gone."

   "Yeah, he drank a lot and it's not safe to drive like that."

   "Then you still drink him on purpose?"

   "Is it obvious?"

   "But the effect is good, at least get him away." Daisy frowned slightly after finishing speaking, "What if he comes back tomorrow?"

   "Are you worried that he will come to make trouble again, and you are not worried that he will be in danger of drunk driving?" Luke asked back.

   "I'm not worried at all." Daisy looked at Luke, "Is it cold-blooded?"

   "Would you do this to me?"

  Daisy laughed, "If one day you are useless and Shi Geng can't wake up, I don't know for sure."

   "Then I'm relieved, because there won't be that day." Luke took out a spare cell phone and called 911, "Hey, I want to call the police."

  The operator asked, "Sir, what's going on?"

   "I saw a car driving dangerously near the Flying Bar, walking in a completely serpentine shape, and almost knocked me over.

   If you don't stop him immediately, he may be going to the sky. "

   "Sir, do you see the license plate number?"

"No."

   "Did you see the driver clearly?"

   "No, I just know it's a black Honda..."

   Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a monthly pass!
