Luke is in charge of important matters.
Rachel took over all the minor tasks.
From family members' social engagements to their daily outfits and household necessities, everything is taken care of.
In Rachel's words, given Luke's position—the dignified FBI Director of Los Angeles—he should have major responsibilities.
Major events such as the Earth exploding, the extinction of humanity, a viral crisis, or a nuclear explosion.
Lorna blinked as she listened to Luke's words.
"I know, so what?"
"That little girl."
Luke's lips curled up as he looked at Lorna, who seemed not to understand what he meant: "The beer in the liquor cabinet was bought to entertain Don and Mia. Rachel and I don't drink it. So, do you think Rachel, who is in charge of purchasing, will come back to find that one bottle of beer is inexplicably missing?"
Lorna's mouth dropped open.
After Luke finished speaking, he smiled and said, "Of course, if you say you didn't take your beer from the liquor cabinet but bought it outside, then that's a different story."
Lorna asked, bewildered, "What?"
Luke shrugged and said, "Making fake IDs is a federal crime case, it's under my jurisdiction."
Lorna's expression instantly fell. Under Luke's smiling gaze, she took out the half-finished beer she had hidden behind her back, placed it on the bar, and looked at Luke with a tearful expression: "Brother, you have to help me. I'm your own sister. If Rachel finds out, she'll definitely ground me."
Tomorrow is the weekend.
She had arranged to go shopping at the mall with Clarice and catch a movie together.
Luke smiled, took the beer Lorna had placed on the bar, glanced at it, and looked at Lorna curiously: "Is this your first time drinking?"
Lorna nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
Luke chuckled, placed his beer glass on the bar, and then looked at Lorna with a silent smile.
Lorna's expression froze.
"Okay, I was wrong, brother. This is the third time."
"Who did you drink with the previous two times?"
Luke asked, then shrugged at Lorna, who seemed hesitant to speak. "Alright, I like loyalty. You wait for Rachel to come back..."
Lorna's eyes narrowed as she looked at Luke, who was turning to leave, and she quickly said, "I drank with Clarice, the new transfer student Katie, and another male student of East Asian descent."
Male classmate.
male?
Luke caught the key words in her words and looked at Lorna: "Name."
Lorna looked at Luke warily: "Brother, if I tell you, you won't investigate him, will you?"
Lu Ke shook his head without hesitation: "Of course..."
He will definitely investigate.
After all, he only has one sister. How could he let just some random Tom, Dick, or Harry run off with her?
Although Lorna is not his biological sister.
but……
Without exaggeration, in Luke's opinion, let alone Los Angeles, even on the entire planet, no one is worthy of Lorna and is qualified to be his brother-in-law.
Because Lorna is his sister!
She is not like a biological sister, but rather like a biological sister.
Although Luke used Lorna to resolve his identity crisis, he would never go back on his word since he had recognized her as his sister.
and so!
check.
If Lorna were to mention a name, Luke would have Jack and Debbie work overtime tomorrow to thoroughly investigate him.
This is not deception.
This is called a white lie.
Luke's mind raced, and then, under Lorna's gaze, he nodded very seriously, assuring her that he would never abuse his power: "Now you can speak."
Looking at Luke's expression, Lorna still felt uneasy and added, "I have nothing to do with that male classmate. He's the one Katie likes."
Luke raised an eyebrow: "Who is Katie?"
Lorna's brow twitched slightly: "It's Katie, the new transfer student from the East that I just mentioned."
Lu Ke responded with an "oh".
His attention was just focused on the male classmate Lorna was talking about.
but……
"Katie?"
"Ah."
"Of Eastern descent?"
"Correct."
"hiss!"
Luke looked at Lorna with some curiosity: "By the way, there are quite a few female students of East Asian descent at your school."
Let's not even talk about Clarice Fang.
Mutants blink.
Now she's also Lorna's best friend. They're practically inseparable, going to and from school together.
Luke thought this was great.
Lorna has attack skills, and Clarice has escape skills. As long as the two girls don't encounter any bad guys who can take them down in one go, and as long as they survive the first wave of attacks, Luke will be able to arrive in time.
Then there's Daisy Johnson, who recently transferred to the school.
Now there's another Katie?
Including the approximately ninety East Asian students currently in the school, plus those who transferred recently, the number of East Asian students in this school is probably close to one hundred.
Lorna, however, found it strange: "What's so strange about that? Los Angeles' Chinatown is the largest Chinatown in the entire Federation. Other schools also have many students of East Asian descent."
Luke nodded.
next second.
Luke looked at Lorna: "Don't change the subject, male classmate, name."
Lorna was slightly taken aback.
"This topic is clearly about you..."
"name."
"Xu!"
"what?"
"A name."
Lorna looked at Lu Ke curiously: "The male classmate's name is Xu, I already told you."
Lu Ke's lips twitched.
"full name."
"I do not know."
Lorna shook her head, looked at Luke's expression, and spread her hands, saying, "I really don't know. His and Katie's schedules are different from mine and Clarice's. They rarely attend the same classes. We've only had drinks together twice. And they're not in our circle. You know, in school, East Asian students basically all have their own little cliques."
Luke nodded.
This is true.
School is a small society, and in this small society there are all kinds of groups. However, among these groups, the small group of East Asian students is undoubtedly relatively closed. Moreover, apart from those who are extroverted, such as Clarice Fang, these East Asian students rarely take the initiative to interact with students of other races.
Luke believed Lorna's explanation.
Because Lorna wasn't skilled enough to lie to his face.
but……
Luke looked at Lorna with some curiosity.
"Then why did you end up drinking with them?"
"It's not because of you."
Lorna looked up and gave Luke a reproachful look.
Lu Ke was slightly taken aback.
"because I?"
"correct."
Lorna sighed: "I used to have some friends at school, but ever since you went to the gym last time, at the beginning of this semester, I've found that I haven't made any new friends at school."
This is mainly a consequence of Luke's execution of Roland Fury.
With a powerful older brother who has the legal right to kill, Lorna never experiences bullying at school.
Because nobody plays with her anymore.
Except for Clarice.
but……
This wasn't Lorna's imagined final semester of high school after watching the "High School Musical" movie series during the holiday.
For example, she also wanted to have a sweet, selfless romance in her last semester of college.
As a result, she can't even find a boyfriend now. Even if she tries to chat with a guy, he just runs away as fast as he can.
