For the sake of his appearance, Luke did not think it was funny and nodded in agreement: "Then it's settled. See you at 8 o'clock tonight."
As he said this, he nodded slightly to Carol, signaling her not to worry, then he got up and left the fast food restaurant.
The two girls in the fast food restaurant looked out the window. The older boy walked to the grass a few dozen meters away on the opposite side and said a few words to a girl. Then the two packed up their things, got in the car and left.
Only after the SUV disappeared into the bushes on the roadside did Lorna turn her head and look at Carol: "Isn't he your boyfriend?"
Carol was stunned: "How is that possible? We are not... just friends."
She almost said "We are not familiar with each other", but finally held back.
Lorna was a little skeptical: "But you believe him so much. No, more than just believe, I feel like if he asked you to turn yourself in, you would foolishly agree."
Carol was a little embarrassed, but still whispered in defense: "He saved me twice. He didn't know me at that time, but he knew that I was not a bad person. He is a good person."
Without the stranger Luke around, and Carol not being a strong character, Lorna's rebelliousness automatically disappeared, and her thinking became much more normal.
After thinking for a while, she said, "So, he asked me if I had ever done anything bad?"
Carol nodded and quickly added: "He asked me too."
Lorna was surprised: "He still doubts you?"
Carol's character, to put it nicely, is simple and kind, to put it bluntly, is stupid, cute and weak. How could Luke even doubt her
For a moment, Luna actually felt much better about Luke.
At least it proved that his problems were not directed at her alone, but were just his nature.
She wanted to continue asking about Luke's situation, but she also remembered that this was not the place for a long conversation, so she stood up and said, "Let's go back."
After they walked out of the fast food restaurant and onto a deserted path, Lorna asked, "Why does he care so much about having done something bad?"
Carol said without hesitation: "Because he is a detective."
Luna was shocked: "Detective? Why didn't you remind me? No, we have to leave quickly. This kind of person is unreliable. He might notify those people to arrest us."
Carol held her back helplessly.
Although Lorna was almost twenty centimeters taller than her, Carol had an absolute advantage in physical strength. Lorna almost stumbled: "What?"
Carol: "He's not going to send someone to arrest us."
Lorna's face was full of disbelief.
In various official armed forces, she had never met anyone who didn't want to arrest them, unless they didn't know their identities.
Once many people know that they have super powers, they want to drive them away - the most convenient way, of course, is to call those agencies to arrest them secretly.
Carol then pulled her forward and said, "I met Luke in Houston in 2003. He was a detective in the homicide squad at that time..."
After a while, after listening to Carol's story, Lorna's tense nerves finally relaxed a little.
From Carol's description, it seems that Luke already knew about the person with super powers, and he took the initiative to let Carol go and gave her money to escape.
If time could change a person's attitude, then he had just discovered Carol.
If he really wanted to tip them off, he wouldn't have had to come up and talk to them to alert them. This doesn't make sense logically.
Could it be that she had really met a good person? Lorna was not sure.
It's not that she's neurotic, it's just that in the past few years, she hasn't met many ordinary people who can remain calm and treat them normally.
…
Over there, Elena curiously asked about Carol and Lorna.
Luke just said that he got to know the short girl because of a case, and that he also saw the other one for the first time.
Elena didn't ask any more questions.
Well, anyway, she wasn't asking these questions just because the tall girl was so pretty.
After walking around the supermarket again, Luke sent Elena back to the academy, went home and entered the workshop, looking for information about the Sentinel Special Service in the polyhedron system.
Soon, Xiao Wo found the relevant information.
The reason why it is so fast is of course because there is very little information, only a few pieces.
After Luke read those messages, he knew that they must have been sent by those people with super powers.
Judging from the fact that neither Carol nor Lorna carry cell phones with them, both the superpowers and the Sentinel Service do a very good job of keeping information confidential.
Except for the psychopath Kilgrave, who is very rampant relying on the protection of Kingpin's power, other smart super-powered people are relatively low-key.
In this world, there are indeed many departments hiding in the dark, capturing people with super powers for research.
According to Carol and the other girl, the Sentinel Special Service is no good and its methods are very dirty, otherwise the two girls would not be able to hide their fear when mentioning it.
The few messages that mentioned the Sentinel Special Service were quickly deleted. Apparently, someone was specifically cleaning out this kind of data on the Internet.
There must have been more information about the Sentinel Special Service on the Internet before, but Luke had not paid special attention to it before, and the Polyhedron System just followed the usual practice of sampling and backing up.
Now, Luke put various keywords of the Sentinel Special Service into the first-order watch list, and also linked the relevant content of super-powered people.
From this moment on, as long as this information appears on the Internet, the polyhedron system will retain it immediately.
It won't be long before a lot of clues appear.
In the information age, the hardest part about finding someone is the beginning.
As long as the key search conditions are locked, it is almost impossible for anyone to completely conceal their own information.
Even if Luke was under surveillance with various instruments 24 hours a day, it would be difficult for him to sneak out and cause trouble, so he has always kept a low profile.
The Sentinel Special Service was not a big problem, and Luke didn't take this secret organization too seriously.
What he wants is information about people with super powers.
Whether they are captured or found, it is an opportunity for him to enrich his list of abilities.
And he was confident that he could find someone faster than the Sentinel Special Service.
The technical level of the Sentinelese is unlikely to exceed that of Tony Stark, and they don't have the ability to get such a scientist who is like the child of destiny to work for them.
Otherwise, if a person with super powers appeared, they would be able to catch one, and the two girls, Carol and Lorna, would not be able to escape at all.
Like Luke agreed to meet Carol and the others at 8 o'clock in the evening, but now he also knew the approximate location of the two girls.
Unless Luna's ability is to open a space gate or fly at super high speed, it will not be easy for them to escape surveillance.
He also had plans on how to arrange the two girls.
Carol is not an ambitious person. If she really wants to live an ordinary life, she can just put on a thousand masks and change her identity.
However, judging from the brief contact with Luna, this fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl's temperament is still uncertain, and it is very likely that she has not thought about her future life.
