Super Detective in the Fictional World Chapter 171 – Business and Bet

Chapter 171 Business and Bet

Luke smiled.

As he thought, the Super Detective System wasn’t restricted to America, nor was it limited to his identity as a police officer.

It was simply a system on the side of justice.

As long as he stopped crime, he would earn experience and credit wherever he was and whether or not other people saw it.

He had already had this theory back in New York.

Under the American police system, he had only been an ordinary person in New York, but he had still been able to earn experience and credit when he dealt with criminals.

Paris, I’m here!

A moment later, Luke checked into a hotel.

Daniel had recommended this hotel, and had said that it was quite good.

Paris’s 16th arrondissement was where the middle class and the rich lived. A hotel here was a lot safer than one in any of the other districts. Although it was slightly expensive, Luke could still afford it.

After making an inquiry with the receptionist and taking a look at a few rooms himself, Luke finally booked one of the rooms.

Thanks to his clean and charming appearance, the French lady who showed him the rooms smiled and was patient the entire time.

Of course, it was also because Luke wasn’t picky about the rooms.

He simply surveyed the rooms in silence, unlike some other guests who would start complaining when they examined the rooms.

After seeing three rooms, Luke chose one on the second floor. It was the cheapest room, since there was a dark alley right below it which gave the room a dreary feel.

The French lady wasn’t surprised by Luke’s choice.

This room wouldn’t be so cheap if it wasn’t for the gloomy alley.

And Luke looked like someone who had just graduated from high school; it was understandable if he didn’t have a lot of money.

After renting the room, Luke left the hotel with a backpack.

If his plan worked out, he wouldn’t need to spend his own money in Paris.

Luke was relaxed as he looked around him.

This was where the rich were gathered. Each of the houses here easily covered two hundred square meters.

This land size was certainly a luxury in Paris.

Luke took a turn onto another street.

As he was wandering around, he suddenly saw the door of an apartment building not far away open, and two girls surrounded by several men then got into a car.

Luke glanced at them, and vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Thinking swiftly, he abruptly realized that he recognized the two girls!

Thanks to his experiences as a detective and his dynamic vision, his reaction was pretty quick.

The clothes and body proportions matched that of the two girls whom he had met on the plane, Amanda and Kim.

Though their faces were blocked by the men, Luke was certain that he was right.

Luke ran toward them.

The men were quite fast. They got into the car, closed the doors, and drove off in under ten seconds.

By the time Luke started to run, the car was already far away.

The situation felt even more off.

Most people wouldn’t start up their cars in such a hurry unless it was an emergency.

By the time he rushed to the apartment building, the car had disappeared around the corner at the end of the street.

Luke took a deep breath, and confirmed that he could smell Amanda and Kim!

He thought for a moment, then called the number on the card that he had gotten earlier. “Daniel, you have a customer. Come pick me up.”

Daniel started to protest, but Luke interrupted him without any hesitation. “I’ll pay you five hundred euros in addition to the cab fare.”

Two minutes later, Daniel’s cab stopped next to Luke. He smiled. “Hey, rich guy, I ditched another customer in order to pick you up…”

Luke got in the cab and threw five hundred euros at him. “Don’t drive too fast. I’ll tell you when to turn left or right.”

Daniel checked the money quickly and grinned. “Okay, no problem.”

Luke opened the window and activated his Sharp Nose. “Turn right at the next junction.”

Though Luke had told Daniel not to go too fast, Daniel evidently understood the word differently to everyone else.

It only took three minutes for Luke to catch up to the car that Amanda and Kim were in.

He didn’t tell Daniel what the target was, and the cab simply tailed the car a hundred meters behind.

Eventually, the car stopped before an apartment building in Paris’s 18th arrondissement.

Luke didn’t get off. He had Daniel park the cab and he observed the car from the backseat.

The main door of the building soon opened, and a dozen men came out and got into several cars.

Narrowing his eyes, Luke confirmed that something was seriously wrong.

The men got into five cars, and there were also two girls to each car. The girls were all clearly unconscious, and Amanda was among them.

The cars up ahead started moving northeast.

It was time to decide!

Luke realized that he had to make a choice, since Kim wasn’t among the girls that were being taken away.

After several seconds, he decided to follow the cars.

Since he now knew Kim’s location, Luke could search for her after he rescued Amanda.

Besides, Luke couldn’t break into the apartment building and go on a rampage in the middle of the day.

This was Paris, and he was an American citizen.

He didn’t think that the Paris police department would appreciate it if he slaughtered his way through the criminals in the building – it wasn’t meant to be any of his business at all!

After driving for another short while, Daniel warned him, “It’s neuf trois up ahead; it’s too dangerous. I’m a good driver, but my cab isn’t bulletproof. Some of the crazy guys there may shoot us dead for money and valuables.”

Luke was silent for a brief moment before he said, without any trace of anger, “Then just drop me off once you feel that it’s too dangerous to drive on any longer.”

After a brief hesitation, Daniel said, “Rich guy, you’ve been very generous, so let me suggest that you don’t do that.”

Luke chuckled. “Daniel, I like you. You’re a man with a bottom line. So, let’s make a bet!”

“Huh?” Daniel was baffled.

Luke said, “If I call for your cab again after today, I’ll give you a thousand euros!”

Daniel thought for a moment, then realized what was going on. He said with a wry smile, “Fine. I’m going to be the winner, in any case.”
