Super Detective in the Fictional World Chapter 748 – A Date! For You, I Will Always Be That Luke

Chapter 748: A Date! For You, I Will Always Be That Luke

Selina asked casually, “Is your Titanium phone ready?”

“Hey, don’t say that it’s mine, keep it on the down low!” The image of a certain baldie holding a phone surfaced in Luke’s mind, and he decisively rejected that identity. “It’s just the official pre-release promos.”

Selina asked, “Can you get me a prototype?”

Luke found that odd. “Why?” The fake phone was much more powerful and comprehensive.

Selina said, “I want one for photos and entertainment. You get it, right?”

Luke understood and smiled. “Then I’ll make two phones for regular use.”

They used regular phones when they called each other.

Selina, on the other hand, was clearly very interested in taking photos, especially selfies.

Although the fake phones could take selfies and videos, they couldn’t be casually taken out in public, and were more suitable for secret service use.

It was still busy during the day, but the two returned home early in the afternoon.

Luke said to Selina, “Finish your training a little earlier tonight, we have something on.” He then went to his workshop.

Selina watched him leave suspiciously. She felt a little apprehensive, feeling like something was about to happen.

Dinner was a simple tomato and beef brisket with boiled vegetables and a pot of rice.

Reading the news on the tablet, Luke asked casually, “Anything interesting happened today?”

He often toyed around with the equipment in the workshop and needed to focus.

On the other hand, when Selina did simple training, she would listen to the news at the same time and train her ability to multitask.

From the moment they got off work until they went to bed, the task of gathering information was left to her.

Selina switched channels on the tablet with her free hand and didn’t stop stuffing herself with beef and rice with the other.

“…Tonight, we have a date with Batman…”

Luke rolled his eyes. “That’s it?”

Selina said vaguely, “Keep listening.”

“…Want to instantly capture that marvelous moment? Want to be in the same frame as your idol? A product ahead of its time can realize your dream…”

Stunned for a moment, Luke looked at the ad which only lasted for a few seconds, before he heard the sound of a camera shutter.

On screen was a photo of various men and women holding a fake Batman.

“Is this… the ad for the Titanium phone?” he asked, looking at the image.

Selina nodded and said, “There’s also a short ad segment which makes it sound like Sheerah will be participating in the show with this thing.”

Luke was stunned. “You can advertise like that?”

Selina shrugged. “Isn’t it normal to advertise on a talk show? Of course, most people go on the shows to advertise their own new products; there aren’t as many who are spokespeople.”

Luke thought for a moment, but didn’t pay it much mind as he let the tablet continue playing the ads. “Shall we go out for fun tonight?”

Selina stopped talking and stared at him with wide eyes. “You? Asking me out? For fun?”

Luke was amused. “No, I’m asking out the Los Angeles Knee Breaker.”

Selina choked.

Gold Nugget choked.

Looking at the two guys who spat out food onto their plates, Luke shook his head helplessly. “How many times have I told you, you must always stay calm.”

As he spoke, he unhurriedly picked up some brisket and stuffed it into his mouth. “I’m just saying that we can go out and all pretend to be Knee Breaker.”

Selina and the dog couldn’t help but look at each other, then at Luke. “What do you mean?”

Luke said with a smile, “Practical training, to test your recent progress. I think imitating Knee Breaker would be a good test. What do you think?”

Selina looked at him. “Do you know…”

Luke raised his hand. “We know a lot of things, so you need to get used to looking like you don’t know anything. I know of Knee Breaker because he’s very famous in my jurisdiction. I admire him, but as a police detective, I can only bring him to justice if I run into him.”

Looking at the dumbstruck woman and dog head, Luke suddenly smiled. “That was the attitude of a detective from the Major Crimes Division.”

Selina rubbed her jaw, which was about to fall off. “And the truth?”

Luke picked up another brisket. “The truth is that we’ll be Knee Breaker tonight.”

Selina was a little dizzy. She put her hand to her forehead and said, “Wait, let me think.”

Luke, however, said indifferently, “Maybe in a few days, we’ll be Batman. And a while after that, we’ll be Iron Man. We can be anyone, but nobody can be us. You don’t need to be shocked by every superhero. They’re all ‘other people,’ not ‘us.’”

Selina was confused. “You…”

Who would have thought he would be so nonchalant when rattling out these names.

This was different from what she had imagined, where he might be even more worried with her knowing certain things.

Luke chuckled. “I’m me, not anyone else. To my family and to you, I’ll always be Luke.”

Selina nodded blankly.

She vaguely understood what he was saying.

Perhaps it was because more and more things had happened recently.

Even though they shared a very close relationship and trusted each other deeply, there were some things that still had to be confirmed with their own mouths.

Some things weren’t a secret between them, even if they never talked about it — like Knee Breaker or Batman.

The real connection was between the two of them, and had nothing to do with the other identities.

Seeing that Selina was deep in thought, Luke patted her hand and said, “Okay, let’s finish eating. We’re going to see L.A.’s night view later.”

As if waking from a dream, Selina quickly dug into her bowl.

Only the dog head looked around blankly. What are you two talking about? Why can’t I understand anything? Can you speak English?

At nine in the evening, Luke and Selina went out and soon entered an old, problematic neighborhood.

Ten minutes later, they entered an apartment building a few blocks away.

Luke opened the door and Selina followed him in.

“Why…”

Luke raised his hand and interrupted her. He used his fake phone to scan the room before he asked her to continue.

“Why couldn’t Gold Nugget follow us?” she asked softly.

Luke coughed and said, “Don’t forget that you need a code name for every mission.”

Selina said, “Fine, Terminator. Why didn’t you let Hellhound come with us?”

Luke said, “Because if we stick together, it’ll be very easy for people to remember us. Even if we need to look out for each other, it’s best if we stay away from each other. I’m here today, so he doesn’t need to follow us too closely.”
