Chapter 267 Acting Chops


Luke put on a shocked expression. “Really? What did he do?”


Pondering for a moment, Elsa told Selina to close the door.


“Dustin told me something. I pulled some strings as well.” Even though the door was shut, Elsa’s voice was low when she said, “I heard that Bullseye clashed with an unknown person in an abandoned factory. They had a huge fight, and more than thirty people died. In the end, Bullseye ran to the coast and escaped on a boat.”


Luke said in disbelief, “Who was it? Do we have such a tough gangster in Los Angeles?”


Elsa shook her head. “Unlikely. He could’ve been Bullseye’s own kind, if you know what I mean.”


Luke and Selina looked at each other thoughtfully.


Elsa thought that they were thinking about the previous cases. “So, this case is none of our concern now. Homeland Security and the FBI are in town to look for Bullseye. He can only sneak back to New York where Kingpin has the most power, if he doesn’t want to be found out.”


Luke said with relief, “So I’m safe now?”


Selina’s expression was quite weird.


Elsa said, “Presumably, yes, but Bullseye hid himself for a long time when we thought that he had left, so you should still be careful. You’ll stay in the police department to guide Elizabeth until we confirm that Bullseye is gone.”


Luke and Selina said, “Got it, boss.”


Elsa said, “Elizabeth has the case files. You can go help her.”


Luke nodded, and as usual, Selina gave Elsa a box of desserts.


Elsa deftly put the box in her drawer. Tiramisu was more to her liking, and she had enjoyed it very much the day before.


Luke and Selina returned to their desks.


Looking at Selina’s odd expression, Luke warned her resignedly, “Do you know what acting is? Even Mr. Stu was a better actor than you. The more knowledgeable you are, the more acting you’ll have to do. It’s fine in front of Elsa, but your expression might’ve betrayed you if we had been talking to someone else.”


Selina nodded silently.


She had to admit that Luke performed quite well and acted as if he really didn’t know anything about last night.


She, on the other hand, had almost burst into laughter back then.


While they were talking, Elizabeth and Billy came over.


The two rookies had specifically picked desks that were very close to Luke’s, so that it would be easier for them to ask for help.


They greeted each other, and Elizabeth started to give an overview.


Their roles were similar to Luke and Selina’s: Elizabeth was responsible for a.n.a.lyzing the intelligence, and Billy was responsible for the grunt work, such as warning or arresting the rogues.


Elizabeth said, “We have three new cases. The first case is a house in Wever. The house’s new owner reported that there was a body there yesterday, but the officers didn’t find anything. The second case is in Beverly Hills. The maid of a celebrity was. .h.i.t with blunt force in the head, and may die from the injury. The last case is also in Wever. The body of a woman was found on a street bench. It was reported ten minutes ago, and we’re going to check it out.”


Selina asked, “What’s with the first case? Is it necessary for us to investigate when there aren’t any bodies?”


Elizabeth said, “The case wouldn’t have been written up if the new owner hadn’t mentioned the daughter of the previous owners; she went missing a year ago when she was five. The mother died of a heart attack brought on by grief a month after she went missing, and the father killed himself in the house.”


“What about the celebrity’s maid?” Selina asked again.


Elizabeth said, “The celebrity said that she was sleeping, and has no idea who hit her maid.”


Selina chuckled and looked at Luke, who was spinning a pen between his fingers.


Luke thought for a moment and said, “Go and take a look at the body on the bench. We’ll study the files on the other two cases first.”


Elizabeth nodded and gave them the case files before she left with her partner.


Luke looked at Selina and asked, “Do you want to pick first?”


Without any hesitation, Selina picked the case of the celebrity’s maid.


Luke grinned; he knew that would be her choice.


She had always hankered for the gossip that showed up in police cases which involved celebrities.


Since she never leaked details of an investigation, Luke didn’t stop her.


They each picked up a case file and started reading


It took Luke ten minutes to read the doc.u.ments in his hands.


One of them was the new owner’s statement, and the other was information on the missing girl from a year ago.


There was nothing surprising in either doc.u.ment.


There were too many “haunted houses” and missing girls in America.


However, when the doc.u.ments were placed next to each other, it became quite bizarre.


Why did the new resident claim that he saw the little girl? That was quite odd.


Seeing that he had finished reading the file, Selina asked, “Do you want to read this with me?”


Luke nodded and sat on the arm of her chair to read the file together.


Selina was reading the statements, so she gave Luke the report on the crime scene that she had already read.


Luke glanced at the report and asked, “Jennifer Perry? The woman in the Dior perfume commercial?”


Selina answered casually, “Yes, she’s in the commercial where she wears all those sparkly diamonds, and takes off her clothes while she’s walking.”


Luke said, “I thought it was a diamond commercial when I first saw it.”


Selina said, “She’s rich and famous, so this case is confidential.”


Luke remarked, “Rich people do have privileges.”


Selina said, “Chances are that Elsa gave this case to us precisely because of your experience in dealing with rich women.”


Luke: …Are you talking about the professional men who offer special services?


Luke’s phone rang while they were bickering. He looked at the number and picked up the call. “Elizabeth, what’s up?”
