Being A Detective in The World of Film and Television

Chapter 247: Detective Luke, who is patient and persuasive (Part 2)

Selina reached under the seat and pulled out something that looked like a vest: "Here, this should be useful."

Ginny stared in amazement as Selina threw the vest over her head.

After a moment, she took off the vest, looked at the huge white "lapd" logo on it, hesitated for a moment, and finally put it on with gritted teeth.

Selina just glanced at her through the rearview mirror, then looked away and said, "This bulletproof vest is nice, it's bulletproof and warm."

Ginny: ... When you said that, did you see that both of my armpits were exposed to the air? And my butt was cold, not covered at all!

Sadly, this was really the only thing in the car that could be considered clothing.

Ginny was still a little cold, so she had to put the towel around her neck to block the gap and prevent the heat from escaping from her neck.

While the two women were having an unfriendly exchange in the car, Luke was outside continuing to have an even more unfriendly "exchange" with members of the WD-36 gang.

Looking at the gang members who were hiding and moving timidly, he had no intention of killing them.

The main reason is that this case was improvised by Luke, and it would be very troublesome if he went on a killing spree.

This place is not under the jurisdiction of the West District Police Station, so he didn't kill anyone from the beginning. At most he just injured these guys.

If you really want to deal with these guys, the missing persons operation will cause the least trouble.

There is no corpse or blood, and no case has been reported. For the police, that means no case has occurred.

Finally, there was a loud bang and two police cars came speeding from a distance.

The group of WD-36 gang members in front of the house were obviously a little panicked. Some of them had already turned around and fled, and those who did not run away were also looking for a way to escape.

However, there are always some mentally ill or structurally abnormal people in this world who are seeking death.

Two police cars drove over and were still a few dozen meters away. Someone on this side shot at the police cars while running away.

Two police cars quickly pulled over to the side of the road, and the police officers in them quickly got out of the cars, shouting, "LAPDS, you are surrounded, drop your weapons immediately and lie on the ground."

Of course no one listened to what he said, but the four policemen who got off the police car had already raised their guns, and less than two seconds after they finished shouting, they opened fire at the gang members.

The meaning of going through the motions was obvious! Luke smiled and sat on the rooftop of a house farther away, watching the fun.

Now that the vanguard has arrived, he doesn't want to take any more action.

Since he confirmed that Ginny was kidnapped today, his series of actions were all intentional.

Injuring more than a dozen gang members was already very conspicuous, and the rest was handed over to the supporting police to deal with. At that time, it would not be just his matter. The police who participated in the incident and wanted to share the credit would automatically share part of the responsibility.

No responsibility, no credit. If you want credit, you must take responsibility.

In this kind of gunfight case, responsibility and credit are equal.

A few minutes later, sirens blared and more than ten police cars arrived, cordoning off the area.

Luke knew that the matter was basically over. There were already more than 30 police officers at the scene, and there were only seven or eight people at most from WD-36 who were resisting, but they wouldn't be able to hold out for long.

Moreover, the longer you hold on, the more serious the crime will be.

He then slipped back to his car, opened the door with the electronic remote control, quickly got into the passenger seat, turned around and smiled brightly at a trembling young lady: "Hello, Miss Gwyneth, it's an honor to see you again."

Miss Ginny had a conflicted expression: "Ah, I, I'm glad to see you again too, Detective Luke."

Luke: "Can you tell me what happened today?"

Ginny opened her mouth, looking as if she was at a loss for words.

Luke shook his head. "Ginny, look, I didn't read you the Miranda warning, and we're not interrogating you in the police station. This is just a private communication. Nothing you say will be recorded. We just want to know what caused this incident today. After all, there are more than a dozen people lying there, so there must be an explanation."

Ginny hesitantly hugged her body a little tighter and finally told the general situation.

The matter was simple. She just wanted to buy some weed secretly, so she went to the back door to trade with the people from wd-36. As a result, the other party suddenly attacked and arrested her this time.

Luke looked strange: "Why would they arrest you, an old customer?"

Ginny has been spending money at wd-36 for a long time and is willing to spend money.

If he guessed correctly, the pound of weeds sent to Sheila was actually ordered by Miss Ginny, but it was inexplicably sent to the wrong place.

The price is more than three times the market price. This business is so profitable, why would you touch Miss Ginny

Rich people in the United States are not easy to mess with! Especially financiers like Ginny's father, who have a net worth of at least hundreds of millions of dollars and a wide range of social contacts, are even harder to mess with.

Ginny was silent again.

Selina was watching the show intently from the sidelines, but suddenly there was nothing to watch. She rolled her eyes and quickly made a few gestures to Luke.

Luke thought about it and nodded. He opened the door to get out of the car, then opened the door to get back in, but he sat in the back seat.

Then, he took off his coat and put it on the pitiful, trembling young lady: "Is this better?"

Ginny lowered her head and said nothing. After a moment, she suddenly threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.

Selena made a cheering gesture in front and continued watching the show.

Luke pouted and reached out to stroke Ginny's back.

This is a little trick to calm the other person's emotions, which is actually similar to the principle of petting cats and dogs.

Soon, Ginny's crying turned into sobbing. Luke took a pack of tissues from Selina, took out one and wiped Ginny's face: "Okay, it's okay, you are safe now."

His voice was soft and steady, similar to the hypnotic baritone on late-night radio.

Ginny had been crying a little too hard just now, and now she couldn't help but hiccup, so she took the tissue he handed over again and buried her head in wiping her face.

After a moment, she said sullenly, "I... my father found out about what happened last time. He replaced my security guards and asked them to watch over me and not allow me to buy things from these people. But I couldn't help it these past two days, so I contacted them. In order to avoid the new security guards, I pretended to be asleep in the morning and quietly slipped out the back door."

Luke and Selina looked at each other, both with laughing expressions on their faces: Isn't this just asking for trouble

Ginny lowered her head and could not see the conversation between the two. She continued sobbing and said, "Who knows? I don't even know the people they came this time. They took the money and still came to arrest me."

Having said this, she fell silent again and didn't say anything for a long time.

Selina couldn't help but give Luke a questioning look, and Luke shook his head slightly, indicating that he shouldn't be anxious.
