Chapter 270 Accident
The last transfer of No. 1 Squadron was David.
David is only the inspector, and his influence is only partial. Susan is different. She is the captain of a squadron, and her influence is much greater.
Susan will not leave immediately, and will have a work handover with Luke in the past few days.
As the saying goes, there is one king and one courtier. The old captain leaves and the new captain takes office. Everyone has a different style of handling cases.
The advantage of internal promotion is that everyone already knows the basics, and the running-in and adaptation period of the team will be greatly shortened.
Among them, the attitude of Vincent's deputy team is very important.
This old man has been in the Robbery and Murder Division for many years, and he can be said to be at the senior level. If he can get his approval, other team members will not have any opinions.
More importantly, this old man is a thorn. Although he is getting older, his temper has not changed, but it has become more and more stinky. If he is dissatisfied with the new captain, he will definitely complain.
While Luke was handing over work, he was also preparing for Susan's farewell party.
The old leader was transferred, and it was a relatively important position. It will inevitably be needed in the future. There must be a farewell party.
However, Susan's personality is relatively introverted, and she may not like a farewell party that is too lively. Luke discussed with others, and everyone finally decided to invite Susan to dinner under the AA system.
It's really not new, but it suits Susan very well.
The work handover lasted for nearly a week, mainly because the files and reports of some cases were relatively cumbersome.
On September 9, Friday, the official handover was completed.
night.
Everyone held a farewell party for Susan at Arom Restaurant.
In addition to the people from the first squadron, the farewell party also invited the deputy director Reid, the captain of the second squadron Chen Kelin and David.
Luke invited David for two reasons. First, David was also a member of the First Squadron. Second, he is a standard thorn. It is necessary to make a good impression on Susan.
Everyone sat around a long oval table with a variety of dishes on it. Susan held up a glass of red wine, "Everyone, thank you for the farewell party, it was very considerate.
Everyone present is very familiar with it, and I have said a lot about parting in the past few days, so I don’t want to repeat it.
What I want to say is that no matter what department or position I am in, I will always be a member of lapd.
cheers. "
"Cheers." Everyone raised their glasses.
Rett laughed, "Susan, I still remember the first time I approached you and asked you to be the captain of the First Squadron of the Robbery and Murder Division. It's really interesting to think about it now."
The deputy team showed a curious look, "Let's hear it.
I have been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and I have thought of many reasons for rejecting you.
But…you never came to me. "
"Haha..." Everyone laughed.
Rett shrugged, "I originally wanted to find you, but I predicted your prediction and knew that you would not agree. So, I can only find someone else."
"OK, I forgive you, let's talk about my protagonist tonight. I really want to know why Susan agreed to be transferred to the Robbery and Murder Division."
"No, she didn't agree, she refused for the first time."
Vice team "..."
Seeing the expression on the deputy team, Reid smiled, "Let's change the subject.
Who chose the restaurant tonight, the steak is very good, I like it. "
One meal, everyone ate until after nine o'clock in the evening.
Susan said goodbye to everyone one by one.
Driving home, Luke was driving very fast, unable to hide his excitement. He had two days off on Saturday and Sunday, and he will officially take up his post on Monday.
However, promotion and salary increase is a good thing, but it also means responsibility.
…
Luke came home and saw the little fat man sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking listless. Although the TV was on, it was mostly background music.
The little fat man has been living at Luke's house for a week, which has seriously affected Luke's life alone.
On the coffee table are his leftover takeaways, which are still fried chicken, French fries, pizza, Coke, the little fat man's true love set meal.
Luke is a person who loves cleanliness. He is a little bit obsessed with cleanliness. If it weren't for the sake of the little fat man's lovelorn, he would have started to chase people away.
"Jack."
The little fat man came back to his senses and glanced at Luke, "Brother, you are back."
"How was your day?"
"Not bad." The little fat man nodded and sighed.
Luke estimated that the other party hadn't gotten out of the predicament of being broken.
Time is not short, and it will not work if this continues.
"Jack, do you want to talk to me?"
"About what?"
Luke sat on the sofa next to the little fat man, and asked with concern, "Are you still sad about the breakup?"
"No!" The little fat man answered very simply.
Luke shook his head, what a stubborn little fat man.
He felt that it was necessary to enlighten his brother again.
"Listen, your state is wrong, love cannot be forced.
You are worse than making yourself stronger than pursuing a woman stalking.
Put all your energy on a woman, if you are tired, that woman will also have a burden. It's fine when you're in a good relationship, but if something goes wrong between the two of you, your end will be miserable.
So, you should put more energy on yourself to make yourself stronger and better, and you will naturally be liked by women.
Women are very realistic, they also like handsomer, stronger, richer men.
You should actively adjust your state, understand? "
fatty"…"
Luke said, "What's your expression?"
"Why are you telling me this?"
"I just want to tell you that falling out of love is not terrible, everyone will experience it, and you should learn to grow from falling in love."
The little fat man said, "Maggie and I are reconciled."
"Really?" Luke wanted to scold his mother, but considering that the two are the same mother, he still endured it.
"Of course." The little fat man pointed to the takeaway on the coffee table, "I also specially bought my favorite fried chicken to celebrate, and we are back as good as ever."
Luke felt that standing here was a bit redundant.
After tossing for a long time, they finally reconciled!
What is this?
I'm still here to persuade people, think about what I just said...
Awkward.
"Then why did you pretend to be unhappy just now?" Luke looked unhappy, suspecting that the kid was playing a prank to lure himself into the bait.
"I'm not pretending.
I'm really happy to be reconciled with Maggie, but... when I'm... alone, I feel a little homesick. "
"Hehe, miss mom?"
The little fat man nodded, "It's the first time I've been away from home for so long, I want my own room, my own bed, and my own game console...
Of course, it's nice to live here, and I'd love to come and live two days a month, but... I'm still a little homesick. "
"Then why hesitate, just go back." Luke has been waiting for this sentence for a long time.
"What worries me now is how to go back?"
"I'll see you off tomorrow morning."
The little fat man shook his head, "That's not the point, my mother never took the initiative to find me. She must be still angry, I'll go back now...
It's scary to think about it. "
"Nonsense, you live with me, it's a ghost that she can find you.
She is probably drinking wine, watching soap operas, and enjoying her alone time. "
"But I ran back in desperation, isn't it too embarrassing. Why don't you think of a way for me."
"any solution?"
"Let my mother take the initiative to pick me up, and promise not to pursue this matter or ask about the breakup. I will go back with her."
Luke "…"
Tolerate.
Luke felt that this guy really deserved a beating. He had an urge to take Linda over and beat the little fat guy up.
He will definitely take a video next to me as a souvenir.
"I'll help you find a way."
"Are you sure mom won't embarrass me?"
"Go to bed first, let's figure out a solution together tomorrow." Luke made up his mind that he must send this little fat man away tomorrow morning.
I can't wait a day.
…
The next morning.
After Luke got up, he did stretching exercises in the yard, and then made a pot of Longjing.
While drinking Longjing, he was thinking about his plan.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the little fat man woke up with a yawn, "You are becoming more and more like Dad, and you actually start drinking tea early in the morning."
Luke laughed, "Jack, I figured out a way."
Luke secretly thought, can I show some face? I also beg you to go home, why don't you go to heaven.
Tolerate.
"Do you think it's possible for her to take the initiative to beg you? Take a step back, and it's almost done."
"Then she must promise that she will not pursue this matter again, and she is not allowed to deduct my pocket money, let alone settle accounts afterwards."
"It's okay, I've already communicated with her."
The little fat man was curious, "How did you communicate?"
"Secrets, it won't work if you tell them.
But don't worry, after she sees you, she will definitely not pursue the matter of you running away from home, but will pay special attention to you. "
"Really?" The little fat man couldn't believe it.
"I'm also a vice-captain anyway, can I lie to you as a brat?"
The little fat man still seemed a little worried.
Luke continued to persuade, "Well, if I lie to you, this vice-captain will quit!"
"Hey, brother, I believe you.
After lunch, go home. "
Your sister still has lunch?
"What do you want to eat?"
"Haidilao." The little fat man swallowed.
Luke was still a little guilty at first, but he was tricked into a hot pot meal by this kid at noon, and his guilt disappeared immediately.
A Haidilao meal is not cheap, the two of them ate nearly three hundred dollars.
After the meal, Luke drove the little fat man home on a Harley.
Along the way, the little fat man was still a little apprehensive, "Brother, are you sure it's okay?"
"Don't worry, I've already settled with Linda, she will take good care of you."
"But I always have a feeling of unreliability."
"Put your heart in your belly, that is your home, she is your mother, the one who loves you the most.
Actually, if you miss her, why doesn't she miss you.
She didn't come to pick you up, but just like you to save face, as long as you give her a step down, the matter will be resolved. "
The little fat man nodded, feeling that what his brother said made sense, and felt a lot more at ease.
Soon, Harley drove into the Eno community and stopped directly in front of Linda's house.
"Jack, get out of the car, mom should be ready to welcome you."
"Really?" The little fat man got out of the car in doubt.
"Beep..." Luke honked the car horn.
Soon, Linda opened the door and shouted, "I told you not to honk your horn when driving in the neighborhood.
Whoa, look who's back here?
Don't you want to go home? Our lovelorn little hero. "
"I don't like your tone. You promised not to pursue it, so I came back." The little fat man felt that the atmosphere was a bit wrong, and turned his head to look behind him.
"Brother, you said..."
"Woo..." There was a sound of the accelerator pedal.
Before the little fat man finished speaking, he saw the motorcycle rushing out, and quickly disappeared in the community street.
"You can't leave me! You can't do this!" The little fat man jumped anxiously.
Linda yelled, "Jack, come home with me right away and make things clear.
Otherwise, your pocket money for this year will be gone, understand? "
…
After sending away the annoying little fat man, Luke felt free.
Go home and clean up the house to remove traces of the little fat man's visit.
Spent a leisurely afternoon.
In the evening, Luke asked Daisy to have dinner together.
At the same time, a couple room was reserved at the Four Seasons Hotel.
This hotel has just spent 35 million US dollars on renovations. The hotel has 285 rooms, as well as services such as salt water swimming pools, spas, and outdoor fitness centers.
The most famous here is a Michelin three-star Italian restaurant.
Luke and Daisy made an appointment to meet in this restaurant.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Daisy walked into the restaurant in a khaki dress with lotus steps.
Luke waved his hand and offered to help her open the seat.
"Daisy, I like your dress, it perfectly shows your figure."
"Thank you." Daisy kissed Luke on the cheek, "Luke, you have become more and more tasteful recently. Italian restaurants with three Michelin stars are not cheap."
Luke laughed, "Do you like me more?"
Daisy nodded, leaned forward, and said in a low voice, "However, there is no need to come to such a good place for a date. I don't want to exceed your financial ability, or you will be burdened."
Although Daisy's words were a little out of place, they were also out of good intentions.
For an ordinary police officer, the consumption here is indeed too high.
But Luke is different, he has many sources of income.
Of course, there is no need to tell Daisy these words.
"Today is a bit different, and I have good news for you."
"What good news?"
At this moment, the restaurant waitress came over, "Ma'am, sir, is the food ready?"
"let's go."
Luke said, "I ordered a few special dishes of the restaurant in advance according to your taste, and if you don't have enough for a while, you can continue to order."
Daisy picked up the red wine glass and touched Luke, "Now I can tell you the good news."
"Captain Susan has been transferred, and I was temporarily appointed as the acting squadron leader of a squadron."
"Cool, you have become the captain so quickly!" Daisy showed a look of surprise.
"acting."
"Based on your ability, it's only a matter of time before you become a regular.
Promotion and salary increase should indeed be celebrated, congratulations. Daisy raised her glass again.
"Thank you." Luke also took a sip, "How is your work lately?"
"It's still the same, meeting the client, working overtime, preparing materials, going to court, reconciling, the work is tense and boring.
Sometimes, I really want to change jobs.
But think about it carefully, and don't know what to do?
Is it contradictory? "
Luke held Daisy's hand, "Then relax properly and don't put too much pressure on yourself."
Daisy shrugged, "The client chose me, and I must be worthy of their trust and commission.
It's hard to say let go, just let go. "
"Ma'am, sir, this is the first dish tonight." The waitress came over with a plate.
The waiter began to serve the food, and Luke stopped talking about work and changed to a lighter topic.
This Italian Michelin restaurant is really good. Not only the dishes are good-looking, but the taste is also delicious. Except for the expensive price, there is nothing wrong with it.
After dinner, Luke and Daisy went to the pre-booked couple's room.
Dating in this kind of place will have more atmosphere.
This couple room is very warmly furnished, similar to other couple rooms, with one feature being the bed, which is suspended in the air. Four ropes are hung from the four corners of the bed, and the bed will shake with people.
Luke smiled, and it was his first attempt, showing a look of anticipation.
"Are you sure we want to sleep here?" Daisy took a look, shook her head slightly, and walked to the balcony.
The hotel is built in Beverly Hills. Standing on the balcony, you can overlook the beautiful street view. The lights are bright and the architectural design is very artistic.
Luke hugged Daisy from behind, "It's getting late, let's take a shower and rest."
"You go first. I want to watch the night view on the balcony." Daisy showed a lazy look.
"Aren't you going to wash together?"
Daisy smiled, "I'm a little tired today, I want to take a bath."
"I'm going to drain the water."
Luke turned on the faucet, and after coming out of the bathroom, he found Daisy still staring into the distance.
He didn't rush the other party. After a day of work, it is also a good way to relax once in a while.
Luke turned off the lights in the room, then took out his phone, turned on the camera function, and slowly scanned every corner of the room...
He will check it habitually when he is staying in a hotel outside.
The mobile phone scanned the socket on the wall, and faintly found a red light spot.
Luke walked in and took a closer look, and a red light came out of the top jack. Based on his experience, it was probably a tiny camera.
This jack is facing the direction of the bed, so if two people are doing something on the bed, they can see clearly.
Calvin is gone.
I wrote several plots and was not satisfied.
It's too late to delete, delete, and modify.
Feel sorry.
