Jack nodded and said nothing more.

Luke then looked away, pointed to David's apartment, and instructed Jack, "Seal off the scene. Send two agents to guard this place. No one is allowed to enter without my permission."

Jack nodded: "Don't worry, boss."

Lu Ke grunted in agreement, turned around, pushed his suitcase, and walked into the elevator.

soon.

Luke walked out of the Sivir apartment building behind him, pushing his suitcase, and went directly to his Audi A8 parked on the side of the road.

Drip!

The Audi A8's body flashed, and then the trunk popped open.

After putting the somewhat heavy suitcase inside, Lu Ke unbuttoned his suit jacket, opened the car door, started the engine, and drove away.

He wasn't worried about where David had gone.

There's an old saying...

The monk can run away, but the temple cannot!

After half an hour.

Baldwin Village!

The Hillcrest neighborhood.

hum!

The moment the unique engine sound of Luke's modified Audi A8 came around the corner, Lorna, who was doing her homework on a bar stool at the bar, looked up instantly: "It's Luke's A8!"

talking.

Lorna got up from the bar stool and ran toward the garage.

Rachel, sitting cross-legged on the sofa with a glass of red wine in one hand and a book in the other, watched Lorna run towards the garage and found it somewhat amusing.

In the garage.

After parking the car in the garage, Luke turned off the engine, took his suitcase out of the trunk, closed the trunk, and checked the time on his watch.

Just right.

eight thirty.

at this time.

Lorna had already opened the garage door, and then looked at Luke with a look of surprise and delight: "Luke, you're finally back."

Luke pushed his suitcase toward Lorna: "Didn't you say you and Clarice needed to talk to me about something?"

Lorna nodded: "Clarice heard that you wouldn't be home until 8:30, so she went back to do her homework first. I called her and told her you were back."

Luke nodded.

Return to the living room.

Rachel, sitting on the sofa, watched Luke walk in, pushing a suitcase with one hand and being led by Lorna with the other. She put down her book, stood up, and teased, "Lorna kept asking you when you'd be back as soon as school was over today. I'm guessing she has some big secret she only wants to tell you, not me."

Lorna looked at Rachel: "Rachel, I have no secrets. It's Clarice. I'm just a... oh right, a middleman."

Rachel laughed and looked at Lorna: "A broker, wow, that's a good job. But what benefits did you get from Clarice?"

Lorna thought for a moment: "Does it count as exempting me from being late three times?"

Rachel looked at Luke with a serious expression: "Yes, it does. But if outsiders find out that the price to see your brother is so cheap, it could easily damage the market."

Although Luke was only the FBI's Assistant Director of Operations in Los Santos.

but……

At this level, it's not something just anyone can meet casually.

At the very least, the price of being allowed to be late three times is far from enough.

As Luke listened to Rachel earnestly explaining to Lorna the market price for wanting to see him, he chuckled, hugged Rachel, kissed her, handed her the suitcase, and shrugged: "I had to work overtime for a bit because of something came up."

Rachel took the suitcase and pushed it behind the bar, looking somewhat curious.

"By the way, the Sentinel Special Operations Bureau doesn't need someone of your rank to be present when handing over cases, does it?"

"Things are a bit complicated."

"How to say."

Rachel's eyes lit up. She handed Luke a glass of bourbon she had poured, then looked at him with wide eyes and asked, "Assistant Director of Operations at the FBI, is there any information you can share with us ordinary citizens?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Ke chuckled: "You, an ordinary citizen, are you sure?"

If he remembered correctly.

The LV bag that Rachel bought while shopping a few days ago—that price is enough for an average person to live on in San Lodos for half a year.

That's even enough for a digital pet; you won't have to worry about money for at least two years.

and……

When Rachel went shopping, she was accompanied by the wife of a state legislator and the wife of the FBI Los Angeles director.

With these qualifications, you call yourself an ordinary citizen?

Luke felt that if the general public knew, they would definitely not agree to be represented by Rachel like that.

Rachel ignored Luke's laughter and said with a smile, "Of course I'm just an ordinary citizen. I'm just lucky, because my fiancé's name is Luke."

Lu Ke chuckled: "Since you've put it that way, does that mean I'd be a bad fiancé if I didn't give you some inside information?"

Rachel smiled and winked at Luke.

"What do you think, darling? You wouldn't want your fiancée to seem completely out of touch with her colleagues tomorrow, would you?"

"……All right."

Rachel had already said all that, what else could he say?

Luke had no choice but to compromise. After taking a sip of bourbon, he looked at Rachel and Lorna, who had already run across the bar and sat down on a high stool, ready to listen attentively to the gossip, and said, "A ruthless mutant went to Atlanta and took something he shouldn't have. And now, the Sentinel Special Operations Bureau has come to kill him."

really!

Lorna, sitting on a high stool, opened her mouth slightly upon hearing this.

Rachel asked suspiciously, "You took something you shouldn't have. But even so, if it's a case transfer, you shouldn't need to work overtime, right?"

Luke's lips curled up as he looked at Rachel.

"What if that thing is also related to Director Louis?"

"..."

Chapter 151 Clarice's Confession (Fifth update, please subscribe to all chapters!!)

"what?"

"Is it related to Director Louis?"

Rachel paused slightly, looked at Luke, glanced around instinctively, and lowered her voice: "Are you sure?"

Luke did not answer the question, but looked at Rachel instead.

Do you know who lost their things this time?

"Who?"

“A sentry supervisor from the Sentry Special Service, and that supervisor was Chief Louis’s ex-wife.”

"hiss!"

Rachel gasped instantly.

next second.

She quickly deduced the hidden meaning in Luke's words.

Luke downed his bourbon in one gulp: "In short, that mutant took something he shouldn't have. Now it's not just the Sentinel Service looking for him, but even Director Louis has told me to find him before the Sentinel Service."

Rachel nodded thoughtfully, but just to be on the safe side, seeing the ambiguous smile on Luke's face, she still asked in a low voice, "That thing, it's not very pretty?"

Luke nodded with a smile.

Rachel suddenly understood.

She had been wondering about it when Luke called her that afternoon to say there was a case that was going to be transferred to the Sentinel Special Service.

In a word.

At Lu Ke's level, overtime is simply not an option.

She almost suspected that Lu Ke was secretly eating something delicious at the station behind her back.

Rachel snapped out of her daze.

"Did you find it?"

"He ran away."

"what?"

It wasn't Rachel who spoke, but Lorna.

Upon hearing this, Lorna couldn't help but speak up, looking at Luke: "The Sentinel Special Operations Bureau found him?"

Luke glanced at Lorna, who seemed somewhat shocked, and smiled, saying, "No, they were a step behind me."

Lorna couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

at this time.

The doorbell rings.

It's Clarice!

Lorna snapped out of her daze, jumped off the bar stool, and ran toward the front door: "It's Clarice, I'll go open the door."

Rachel turned to look at Lorna running towards the door, then turned back to Luke and smiled, "Lorna is a very competent middleman."
