MTL - Los Angeles Detective-Chapter 3 a week
Chapter 3 Week
Overtime is not possible.
In his previous life, Luke spent most of his life staying up late and working overtime.
When I was young, I stayed up late to do my homework, and it was normal to work overtime after work.
enough.
Really enough.
Living so seriously, working hard, and working so hard, in exchange for occupational diseases, I saw God before I was forty.
In this life, he wants to live an easy life.
…
Luke's mother's home is located in the Eno community.
There is a small commercial plaza on the east side of the community. It is not large in scale, but it has supermarkets, convenience stores, fast food restaurants, and gas stations.
Luke didn't want to be at the police station, and he didn't want to go home to his mother too early.
I just want to find a quiet place for the meeting, that's all.
Luke parked his motorcycle in front of a milk tea shop.
Luke drank milk tea for the first time in Los Angeles, and the clerk recommended boba milk tea to him.
"Oye."
Luke became very interested. After getting the milk tea, he realized that it was actually a large particle of pearl milk tea.
"Fuck!"
Luke has a feeling of being cheated.
I found a seat by the window and sat down, took a sip of milk tea, it was so sweet, it was even worse than domestic milk tea.
Then, he started to be in a daze.
This is Luke's favorite thing to do after time travel.
He still can't figure out why he traveled to Los Angeles.
When he first crossed, Luke had a feeling of being cut off, and he desperately wanted to contact his relatives and friends in China.
But out of professional sensitivity, Luke knew that he could not do this. He tried his best to restrain this strong desire and learn about the situation in Huaguo through other channels.
This is a parallel world. Although it is also 2022, there has been no epidemic here, and he can no longer go back.
Trying to accept my new identity, but adapting to life abroad is not as simple as imagined.
Before I knew it, it had been half a month...
"Om..."
A voice suddenly sounded in Luke's head, [The host is successfully matched, and the detective system can be activated... The first trial rewards an 'Adventure Card'. 】
"What the hell?"
Luke thought he had auditory hallucinations, and then an option menu appeared in his mind, and a warehouse interface appeared on the left.
Luke patted his head and took a big sip of milk tea, the interface in his mind still exists.
Soon Luke calmed down. Although it was a bit unbelievable, what was it compared to time travel?
Rule out the possibility of mental problems.
Luke's first consideration is whether this so-called 'superior detective system' will harm him?
Luke looked at himself with no abnormalities, nor did he feel any discomfort, and for the time being, he didn't find any harm from the 'Detective System' to him.
What is the use of studying the 'Detective System' next?
There is a card on the warehouse interface with the word 'Adventure' written on it, and a small line of notes below [Passive card, function unknown]
Luke thought in his mind, "System, what is the use of this card?"
no respond.
Asked several times, still no response.
It can only be understood literally—passively triggering some kind of adventure.
Sounds pretty good, I wonder if I can make some money?
Suddenly, Luke had an occupational disease.
There is a feeling of being 'peeped' by someone.
Luke came back to his senses and glanced around. There were not many customers in the store, and no suspicious figure was found outside the window.
"Could it be that I'm overthinking..."
Suddenly there is a system, it is inevitable to be a little worried.
Luke calmed down, the system is invisible and intangible, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to kill himself, no one will find out.
I am a poor **** in Los Angeles, and there is nothing worthy of peeping except for being handsome.
As for the Harley motorcycle, strictly speaking, it still belongs to the bank.
Harley was bought by the original owner with a loan. It cost 20,000 U.S. dollars, with a down payment of 4,000 U.S. dollars, a loan of 16,000 U.S. dollars, and a yearly interest of 600 U.S. dollars on the loan.
The monthly repayment is 1,400 US dollars.
Luke's current monthly salary is around $6,500.
It stands to reason that his income is not low, but after deducting taxes, he actually received less than 5,000 yuan. In addition to motorcycle loans, there are also card loans and foreign debts.
After paying off the car loan and credit card loan at the beginning of the month, there are only a few hundred dollars left for living expenses.
Luke now just wants to make money and rent a house.
I don't want to live a life of being dependent on others.
After get off work, lying on your own sofa watching TV, drinking beer, and eating fried chicken, this is life.
Now, he can only live this kind of life in his dreams.
Hope, this card can bring me good luck.
…
Thursday morning, 8.58.
Luke walked into the Robbery-Murder Department humming a ditty.
With one more system, he is in a good mood.
David, a bald white man, looked over, and Luke pointed his **** without waiting for him to speak.
David was not angry either, "Congratulations, you have won the lottery."
"What do you mean?" Luke was vigilant, the 'Detective System' was exposed?
impossible.
That thing is invisible and intangible, how could it be discovered?
David pointed to the captain's office, "Queen Susan summoned you."
"A childish trick, I won't be so stupid as to throw myself into the trap." Luke just breathed a sigh of relief, and had another bad feeling.
"I've conveyed it." David shrugged, as if you could believe it or not, "Goodlak."
…
A few minutes later, Luke entered the captain's office.
"Captain, are you looking for me?"
"Yes." With a cold face, Susan pointed to the opposite chair and motioned for Luke to sit down.
"What are your orders?"
Susan leaned forward and pressed her elbows on the table, "I haven't been transferred to the 'Robbery-Murder Division' for a short time, and I can feel that you don't like me.
me too.
But I don't want to bring that emotion to work. "
"You misunderstood, I never had such thoughts."
"Luke, after the last injury, your overall state is not right. You refuse to work overtime, pick and choose when performing tasks, and you are always absent-minded in meetings.
If you are unable to take on your current job due to injury, I can help you apply for a transfer and change to an easier job. "
Luke probably wouldn't have cared about the transfer a few days ago, but it's different now.
I just got the detective system, and I haven't figured out how this system is triggered, but from the name, the "detective system" may be related to the police profession.
He didn't know whether the change of position would affect the 'Detective System'.
Even if it's for the detective system, stay temporarily.
"The last time I was injured, my mentality did change a bit. I realized that family is the most important thing, and I wanted to spend more time with my family, so I didn't want to work overtime.
I believe in my ability, I can do my job well without working overtime, and I will become an indispensable part of this team. "
"I would like to believe you.
But your current state and the evaluation of you by your colleagues make me doubt it.
I want to see your action and change. Otherwise, whether you like it or not, I will help you apply for a transfer, understand? "
"Give me half a month, and you will see my value in the team." Half a month is enough for Luke to understand the "Detective System".
Susan's tone was emotionless, "You only have one week."
Haha, I have opened a new book. I haven’t opened a new book for more than half a year. I really miss all the book friends.
I haven’t left the game, I’ve been reading materials, watching American dramas, researching new books, trying to make a breakthrough for myself.
I will earnestly write a good story and every character. Thank you for your support. I hope you can read it well.
