Super Detective in the Fictional World

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

If Luke wanted to take the FBI application test, he would have to wait a few more years to get the required experience and rank in the police force, as well as get himself a college degree. Only then would he have any chance of success.

But who knew what would happen in the meantime.

Since Chris had left his contact details, however, it was clear that he still regarded Luke highly.

With this name card, Luke could ask Chris for help whenever necessary.

But who knew how much help Chris would give him, since Chris hadn’t promised anything.

Luke didn’t mind. He considered this a backup for when it was required.

What Luke didn’t know was that Chris really did think very highly of him.

Thus, if it was something that he could help with, he would do his best if Luke needed it.

In a single night, Luke, who was only 18-years-old, had killed thirteen AK-wielding criminals. Moreover, he had only been in the force for two months or so.

People like him were extremely rare, even in the whole of the country.

Chris was seriously planning to recruit Luke for himself after two years. What his team lacked was someone as good in combat as Luke.

Unfortunately, Luke was still young. Youth meant immaturity and fickleness.

But if Chris invested in him early on, it would be easier for him to forge a friendly relationship with Luke.

People capable of taking down so many attackers in a single night weren’t necessarily rare in the country. For example, Robert was also capable of the same.

But Robert was an old fox who was too smart, with numerous established habits from his years in the service. It wouldn’t be easy to control a subordinate like him.

On the other hand, Luke was someone who usually tried to never offend anyone.

Throughout the week, Chris’s observation was that Luke had a mild personality, was above average in his ability to learn, and was very willing to help others. He was basically the prime example of a Mr Nice Guy.

The town residents all praised him greatly and Chris had yet to meet someone who spoke badly of him.

Of course, it was quite scary that this Mr Nice Guy had killed thirteen criminals in a single night. But Chris could understand why Luke had done it.

Even Robert, who hadn’t killed a single person after being a police officer for over ten years, had also killed more than ten criminals that night.

The wrath of a Mr Nice Guy was truly terrifying.

Since Luke was Robert’s adopted son, it was understandable that the two had similar personalities.

In any case, the FBI had strict recruitment requirements

Luke was a police officer, his foster father was a police officer, and he had also performed well during his two months in the force.

He was a perfect example of someone with a clean background and who could already be considered part of the law enforcement system; it was people like these whom the FBI would give top priority to during recruitment.

In addition, Luke wasn’t stupid. Although he hadn’t furthered his studies, his high school results indicated that it wouldn’t be hard for him to do so.

And more importantly, Luke was an excellent combatant.

Luke’s name was already on Chris’s list of promising candidates. He would be paying close attention to Luke from now on.

The moment he got the chance, he would drag Luke into his team.

Two days later, Catherine returned with Claire and Joseph.

Facing the empty living room, she was stunned. “Can one of you explain to me what happened here?”

The two looked at each other, and said at the same time, “He’ll tell you.”

Followed by, “Why me?”

Followed by, “Of course you.”

Catherine was speechless as she thought to herself, “Are you guys running a double act?”

Ultimately, it was Robert who surrendered, as their living room had been messed up when he was here. Luke had only arrived afterward.

But he only told Catherine. There was no need for Claire and Joseph to know anything. It would do them no good to know anyway.

Catherine was in a bad mood.

Although the Carlos Family had suffered a terrible defeat, their base was in Mexico.

So long as they continued to exist, they definitely wouldn’t spare Luke and his family.

But at least there was good news. The Limedog Gang had been effectively crippled.

In America, a gang with over 40 gunmen was already considered a sizable and powerful gang. With the Carlos Family’s support, the Limedog Gang had about 50 gunmen. One could say that the bulk of their muscle had been eliminated during the operation. Their remaining members were no more than low-level street thugs who only knew how to wave their guns around to frighten others.

Thus, it would be quite a long time before Luke’s family was attacked once more.

Although Luke pushed Robert into taking the blame for the destruction of their living room, he still offered to share in the repair costs.

After working in the force for two months, he had received about 6,000 dollars in pay.

Luke, who had been Chinese in his previous life, viewed money differently compared with other Americans.

He didn’t smoke, drink, or party. At most, he gamed at home, and his biggest hobby since his school days was Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

After he started working, he had an additional hobby – gun practice.

He was living with family, and although Robert had jokingly told him to pay for food, Luke had been rejected when he offered to pay Catherine.

Up until now, Luke had only spent about 600 dollars of his salary, and that was also to buy Catherine a cosmetic set.

He didn’t spend much on other things. Thus, Luke still had about 5,000 dollars in savings. For a newly employed young man, this was a large sum of money.

Other young men would likely use this money to buy a new car or something. But since Luke had been getting free rides in Selina’s car every single day, he didn’t even need to buy one for himself.

Catherine originally didn’t want Luke to pay for the living room, but Luke insisted that he wanted a large and comfortable sofa. And since that was his wish, he would take responsibility for it.

Ultimately, he spent about 2,000 dollars to order a custom-made sofa, a side table, a TV cabinet, and two tiny tables from Old Bill.

Old Bill was a carpenter who handled the numerous carpentry jobs in town.

A job worth 2,000 dollars was a large project for Old Bill. Since he was close to Luke and his family, he patted his chest and agreed immediately to the deal. He even promised to finish everything in three days.

When the sofa and furniture arrived, Catherine immediately shut her mouth.

In his previous life, Luke had lived until the year 2018. Although he wasn’t an expert on the trendy furniture of the time, he still had a vague idea how they looked.

The sofa was wide and comfortable, the design minimalistic and simple.

It was large enough to serve as three single beds after taking it apart.

The day the sofa arrived, Joseph and Claire spent the day rolling on it in excitement and going on and on about how this new sofa was much better than their old sofa, which had been too old-fashioned.

After dinner, the whole family lounged on the sofa. Some watched TV, some read the newspaper, and some played on their cell phones.

At that moment, Catherine sighed emotionally. “This sofa really is quite good.”

In the past, Joseph and Claire would always mess around on the floor. The previous sofa simply hadn’t been big enough for the entire family.

But now, Catherine and Robert could lounge in the middle of the sofa while Joseph and Claire hung out on the right side. As for Luke, he alone occupied the left side of the sofa. There was more than enough space for everyone.

Robert took a swig from his can of beer and said, “Hmm, yes, it’s really comfortable.”

With his size, he had never been able to lie down on their old sofa, which had been too small for him. If he lay down, he would simply slide off instead. Thus, the old sofa hadn’t exactly been good for resting.
