Luke watched everything quietly.
Unlike previous actions, this was his most "civilized" action so far.
In addition to using the power of the Internet, media, and public opinion, he simply used his super powers of hypnosis and control to find clues.
The rest of the confrontation was done on television and the Internet.
But he didn't have much preference for this kind of behavior, after all, it was really a bit boring.
But it is still very gratifying to just move your fingers and tap on the keyboard, and a few scumbags who cannot be killed by hand are publicly executed and socially killed.
The real purge will only begin after this storm is over.
At that time, what awaits some big guys will not be social death, but physical ascension.
This cleanup process will take at least two months, or even longer, to begin.
Therefore, if those people in the little black book are lucky, they can still live until next year.
This is sad news for the system, after all, it is a lot of experience points.
On the contrary, his days were much more relaxed.
Since Batman and Catwoman are in the spotlight, the daily leisure activity of going out to clean up gang members every two days has to be cancelled.
Even if they go out occasionally, they cannot show their faces, let alone use the signature tactics of the "Bone Crushing Twins".
Selina and Gold Nugget went out several times, but they only stole all the illegal drugs from the drug dealers and then handed them over to Luke for destruction.
In this way, the experience points gained are not too many and the noise is minimal.
The only response from the New York underworld was another increase in the retail prices of illegal drugs, to 5-10 times what they were a few months ago.
Luke and Selina had no psychological burden about this.
Can't afford it? Then just quit. It's good for your body, yourself, others and society.
The situation in the NYPD has also changed a lot.
Sheriff Nelson has already been confirmed as the commissioner and is only waiting to officially take office in October.
But the stall left for him was not too good.
There has been a significant wave of resignations among NYPD police officers, and the response to new recruits has been poor.
The number of police officers killed in the experimental attack did scare too many people.
The police officers are not afraid of dealing with gangs with guns, but no one has the confidence to deal with those monsters that appear out of nowhere.
After this battle, the number of NYPD police officers killed was less than 3% of the total number, but including those who resigned, the reduction in staff reached 10%.
Sheriff Nelson had to relax the police recruitment regulations, lowering the educational level to high school graduation and the minimum age limit to 17.5 years old.
Because at the age of seventeen and a half, one can spend three months in police academy training, and then serve as a trainee police officer for another three months, and at the age of eighteen, one can become a formal police officer.
In this way, the recruitment of police officers finally got back on track.
For many young people, even if being a police officer is dangerous, it is better than having no job.
Most people have no other choice but to pray that they won't be attacked by the experimental subjects.
Attacks don't happen every day or night, but the pressure of life is present all the time.
Therefore, in Walter's office, when "receiving" the "newcomers" who needed to be trained by him, Luke and the others had nothing to say.
Seeing Luke's helpless expression, Walter scratched his head: "You...don't have that expression. I can't do anything about it. Now everyone in the detective bureau has to train new people. John and Joe have even been separated and used separately. And it's very troublesome for the sub-bureaus to recruit new people."
Luke could only nod.
He and Selena were not separated, thanks to the power of money.
Nelson, the future commissioner who had just received a large donation, didn't dare to mess with Luke.
Brad was unlucky, and Nelson took over, which made Walter see the accuracy of Luke's positioning.
He was reinstated and even promoted to a higher rank thanks to Luke's initiative.
Walter is just a straightforward person, he is not really stupid.
So John and Joe have to lead the new recruits separately, but Luke and his partner lead a group of new recruits.
After leaving the office, looking at the two "newcomers" outside the door with complicated expressions, Luke and Selina did not pretend to be seniors, but shook hands and introduced themselves to each other normally.
Selina also introduced to them the various precautions in the detective bureau.
Probably who to go to for miscellaneous tasks, who to go to for intelligence, and who to go to if you need military support... um, go to Sergeant John McClane.
This group of "newcomers", Maggie Hotla, is an American woman, 26 years old, transferred from the 26th Precinct.
Brett Mahoney is a 25-year-old African American male who was transferred from the 15th Precinct.
Brett's expression was obviously weirder than Maggie's, because he had met Luke and Selina before, but that was at the 15th Precinct, and he only knew that they were detectives.
But I didn't expect that after I was promoted and given a raise and transferred to the headquarters, I would become the "newcomer" for these two.
Could it be that the headquarters is so radical that they use such a young detective as the main force? Brett couldn't help but have this thought in his mind.
But after being "led" as newcomers for a few days, Brett and Maggie both knew that Luke and the other were veteran detectives and definitely not people with connections.
Both of them are impeccable in terms of case handling experience, relationships, methods, and precautions.
In fact, Luke and his friend seldom interfered with Brett and his friend's investigations. They just gave some necessary reminders and did not behave like "old police officers" that made people uncomfortable.
Those who can be transferred to the Detective Bureau now are not rookies.
Police Sergeant Brett will be trained as a future backbone.
After all, this guy is one of the few good policemen in the 15th Precinct. He did not collude with other corrupt policemen. He has also helped lawyer Ma Xiaohong several times. He is listed as a "seed" player in the headquarters, which is why he was transferred up.
Maggie is also a second-level detective with considerable experience. If she performs well, she may be promoted to police inspector in the near future.
There's nothing we can do about it.
The large-scale deaths caused seven or eight colleagues in the Detective Bureau to resign.
Some young people want to change careers, and older people will also try hard to do so.
Being a policeman in New York is really a high-risk job nowadays. New York's consumption level is among the highest in the world, but the police salary is not as high as that of LAPD.
Without enough money, there are obviously fewer people willing to work hard.
Although Sheriff Nelson said that he would try to find ways to increase everyone's salary, if the salary of tens of thousands of police officers were to increase by a few thousand dollars each year, that would cost hundreds of millions of dollars a year.
The New York City government certainly does not have such a high budget for the NYPD to squander. It is more likely that they will lay off employees and abandon most of the areas that have no "benefits."
Given the current situation, it is unclear whether Sheriff Nelson's promotion was a matter of luck or bad luck.
However, the donation from Titanium Mobile Phone Company is a routine once a year. Luke, who holds the money, doesn't care who comes to power or steps down, because no one dares to destroy the money anyway.
Since it is unlikely that the New York City government will be able to provide more funds, the wealthy people who hold donations are the bosses of the NYPD.
Every year, whether the NYPD eats dry or thin food depends on the signatures of these bigwigs.
When Luke and his companions were with the "newcomer" agents, it was September. New York became cloudy again, the temperature dropped, and it started to rain. The sun appeared less and less frequently again.
Selena, who had a rare chance to enjoy sunbathing, had to say goodbye to her bikini with regret.
