Super Detective in the Fictional World Chapter 316 – Old Cases and Sticking Your Nose In

Chapter 316 Old Cases and Sticking Your Nose In

Although Elizabeth and Billy had more cases, that didn’t mean that their burden was heavier than Luke and Selina’s.

Most of the cases were minor ones, and didn’t have to be cracked within a certain period of time.

The cases that Luke and Selina had received, in comparison, were the really tricky ones, as were all the cases that they had ever worked

on.

Luke didn’t find it surprising.

Martin was new to the Major Crimes Division, even if he was a great marksman who had retired from the navy. Roger, on the other hand, was a true veteran.

Five years ago, Roger’s partner was Dustin Hammond, who was now the head of the Major Crimes Division.

He had worked with Dustin for three years, before Elsa worked with Dustin for another year.

Roger was definitely one of the most experienced detectives in the Major Crimes Division.

However, he didn’t have the mental fortitude for more important positions, nor did he want to shoulder even more pressure. Thus, he had never chased a promotion, and stayed in the Major Crimes Division.

He was one of the people that Dustin trusted the most.

Luke ran into Bullseye on the case that Roger had asked Luke for help with last time, which showed just how dangerous the cases that he worked on were.

Luke and Selina stopped chatting with Elizabeth and Billy as they were all busy.

Selina quickly screened the files and threw three of them to Luke. “Check them out, especially the first one.” She then continued reading the other files.

After reading the first case file for a moment, Luke frowned. “This case… hasn’t been closed

yet?”

There were too many unsolved cases in the Major Crimes Division, but this particular case had to do with the shooting in the donut store, which was related to Bullseye.

Luke hadn’t investigated the case further after he drove Bullseye away.

After all, this case belonged to Roger and his partner, and his intervention might not be appreciated unless they asked for his help.

Now, according to the file, Bullseye had only been following orders, while the mastermind in this case hadn’t been found yet.

Thus, the case hadn’t been closed even though Bullseye had run back to New York.

Palmer, the beautiful DEA agent who had something going on with Martin, had been in another shooting recently, but fortunately was unharmed. So, it was easy for Luke to reach a conclusion: It was Palmer, and not her unfortunate partner, who was the real target in the shooting at the donut store. Bullseye had taken action because of Kingpin. However, Palmer wasn’t looking into Kingpin, but the head of a local drug gang which had major dealings with Kingpin.

Luke didn’t dive into the details, but browsed the other two cases first, only to find that they were just as tricky. One was the murder of a police officer, and the other was about a girl in pajamas who had been hit by a car on the road.

These two cases weren’t any easier than Palmer’s case, but there was no deadline on them for now, so they could be worked on one at a time.

Luke raised his head. “Is there anything else? Is it just these three cases?”

Selina nodded. “The other cases aren’t as important. The three cases you’re holding can turn into a huge deal if they aren’t closed. Well, fine, they’re actually already pretty big deals now.”

Luke grabbed his coat and said, “Let’s go and talk to Martin’s quasi-girlfriend.”

Selina didn’t joke about Palmer with Luke this time.

Anybody with the least bit of intelligence could see the sparks between Martin and Palmer.

Also, Luke and Selina were still in the police department. There were eyes and ears all over the place, so jokes like that were inappropriate.

Elizabeth raised her head. “Do you need any help?”

Luke pointed at the case files in front of her and said, “Only come help out after you’ve handled your cases. Also, don’t forget about Samantha. I can arrange accommodation for them.”

Elizabeth said, “Alright.”

As he walked to the parking lot, Luke murmured to himself, This is a case with psychos like Bullseye. If you get involved, you might die like that SWAT team.

He had high hopes for Elizabeth and Billy, and didn’t want them to get involved.

While every case could be dangerous for a detective, the opponents in this case were too ruthless.

Los Angeles now had a crime rate that was even higher than New York’s, but cases were still rare where someone would spray bullets at a DEA agent with an automatic weapon.

That was nuts!

The FBI had targeted the Carlos family previously when the latter killed several police officers and FBI agents.

The DEA was just as powerful as the FBI, and even tougher, since it was impossible to deal with crazy drug dealers without being fierce themselves.

A lot of their people were retired special force veterans.

Luke wouldn’t be interested in getting involved if Roger and Martin hadn’t handed them the case. It was possible that the DEA was about to eliminate some gang; they didn’t need Luke going in to steal their credit.

For the sake of Martin’s girlfriend-to-be, however, Luke decided to work on this case first.

He never felt guilty about wiping out drug dealers.

He called Palmer, only to discover that she happened to be at the police department, and was with Martin.

Selina blinked and asked, “Are we really going to go over? Wouldn’t we be interrupting them?”

Pondering for a moment, Luke said, “Let’s see what’s the situation. If they’re done, we’ll stick our nose in. If they’re still cuddling, we’ll… wait for five minutes.”

While whispering to each other about Martin and Palmer’s love story, they reached the lounge. They found Roger standing forlornly outside the lounge, and saw that Martin and Palmer were talking in the lounge, which had tempered glass walls.

Luke had no choice but to take a deep breath and walk over to Roger. “How are they doing?”

Roger smiled bitterly at them. “Thank god Palmer is here. A woman is much better comforting someone than I am.”

Looking at Roger’s dark face and his bald head, Luke couldn’t agree more.

A man with a dark face and a bald head tended to leave the impression that he was a villain, even if he actually defended world peace.
