Being A Detective in The World of Film and Television

Chapter 317: Luke's fear of insufficient firepower (Part 2)

Seeing Mike's depressed expression, Luke smiled, rubbed the little guy's head and said, "Hey, I'm the reinforcement Lisa found. Of course, the rescue is left to me. How old are you? Do you still want to fight that big monster?"

Mike was suspicious: "Are you that powerful? Even Lisa wants to come to you?"

Luke chuckled. He lifted his hand and lifted his clothes, revealing the holster under his armpit. He then flashed his police badge and said, "Did you see it? Remember, this must be kept secret. Only you and mom should know about it. If others know that your sister privately asked us to help her, she'll be in trouble."

Mike nodded obediently.

Luke loved this little guy, he was really smart, maybe even smarter than Elizabeth.

Despite his young age, he was able to produce that kind of analytical report. It was obvious that he had great talent in some areas.

He also seemed very sensible, not the kind of completely naive child.

After instructing the little guy, he got up and went out.

Back in the living room, only Selina was sitting there looking through some documents, and he asked, "Where's Samantha?"

Selina didn't even raise her head and pointed in a direction: "I'm going to make dinner."

Luke nodded and walked over: "Samantha, can you come over here for a moment?"

After a moment, Samantha looked surprised when she heard Luke's request: "Ah, you don't want to eat something before you go? I can come with you."

Luke shook his head solemnly: "Samantha, I think the problem here is very serious. But the current things cannot be used as evidence to seek help, so we'd better go and investigate quickly."

Samantha heard this and began to take off her apron: “I’ll go with you.”

Luke thought about it and nodded: "That's fine. As for food, Selina, take out some snacks from our car and give them to Ashley and Mike as dinner."

Selina immediately went out to get her things.

Samantha was a little stunned: That's not right, shouldn't I prepare dinner for them? How come they are bringing dinner to their own home

Luke: "Samantha, you'd better tell Ashley and Mike to close the doors and windows. It's better for you to check it yourself."

Samantha frowned, but immediately did what she was told.

Doing this is just common sense in daily safety. She usually asks her children to do this, and there is nothing wrong with it.

A few minutes later, the three of them went out.

Samantha drove out in the police car, and Luke and his partner followed in their own car.

First, I went to Deputy Sheriff Pete's house and called this middle-aged bald white man out. After a few words, Pete's face was full of sadness: "Zheke, it's my cat. It just screamed in the ventilation duct, and then there was no movement. Is it also..."

Samantha and Luke looked at each other and invited everyone into the house.

Luke and the other man walked in and into the living room.

Luke squatted down to a vent, took a deep breath, closed his eyes for a moment, and stood up: "Is this the place?"

Peter, the bald middle-aged man, burst into tears: "Oh, yes. My poor little Dzeko, something must have happened to him."

Luke was speechless. He turned to Samantha and said, "Let's go to the homes of the two missing people again."

After bidding farewell to the tearful Pete, Samantha went out and lowered her voice: "Did you find anything?"

Luke: "That cat... Dzeko? It's true that he's dead, but I guess there's no need to say that in front of Pete, right?"

SAMANTHA: “What the hell is that?”

Luke chuckled: "You wouldn't believe it even if I told you. Let's first see what evidence we can find in the missing person's home."

An hour later, Luke not only visited the homes of the two missing people, but also visited the homes of those whose cats and dogs were missing, and even visited the spider farm of Old G's friend, spider expert Joshua.

But he regretfully discovered that, except for the unfortunate Deputy Sheriff Pete's cat, which was obviously taken away by a spider, the other missing cats and dogs were not attacked at home.

In the spider farm's hut, which was the home of spider expert Joshua, all the spiders disappeared, and the smell spread into the nearby mountains.

Luke found a lot of newly dug holes there, but they were quite narrow, with a diameter of only 20 to 30 centimeters, and people could not enter at all.

Considering the number of spiders he heard from Mike, he would have to be crazy to crawl in here, and Selina wasn't in there this time.

This situation still prevented him from calling for support.

Don't think that if he makes the situation here serious, others will definitely come. No matter if it is the real FBI or the fake FBI, they receive many alerts of alien invasion every day. Everyone goes to check it out, and they are so busy that they can't finish reading it.

Without a solid alarm, these agencies will not take action easily.

Luke and his friend returned to Samantha's house again. After a conversation, the three of them went out again.

Two cars and three people first went to the only gun store in town to buy a batch of bullets and magazines, of course they paid for them.

The good thing about Samantha is that they will not be limited in the quantity they can buy.

Luke directly bought a thousand rounds of bullets, plus ten magazines for pistols and rifles, which stunned Samantha.

Selina smiled and explained: "He has a fear of insufficient firepower. As long as he doesn't have enough bullets, he feels unsafe."

Samantha was speechless, but under the influence of the two men, she temporarily borrowed an M4A1 and three magazines from the store.

Luke had asked for bullets before, and she had also asked the two if they wanted guns. The town police station could provide them with two guns.

As soon as Luke heard the name of the gun she reported, he immediately declined.

Those rifles are all old-fashioned ones, and many of them are single-shot bolt-action. They are okay to use as sniper rifles, but it would be crazy to face such a large number of spiders.

I have to say, this place is really poor.

The police station in Prosperity Town only has Sheriff Samantha and Deputy Sheriff Pete.

According to investigations, in police stations in remote areas across the United States, it is common to have only two or three police officers. In many places, there is even only one sheriff, who is responsible for a one-stop service including dispatching police officers, arresting people, coordinating, doing secretarial work, and detaining people.

Prosperity Town has declined, and the townspeople do not have extra money to recruit, so Samantha and the other person's salary is quite low.

Except for the two sheriffs' pistols, which are not outdated Glock 17, the other rifles and shotguns in the police station are all antiques, even Winchester shotguns.

That's why Samantha didn't even say she was going to buy an M4A1, but instead borrowed one.

Fortunately, the beautiful sheriff had a very good reputation here, and the gun shop owner did not hesitate at all and directly took out the modified fully-automatic M4A1 that he had kept in the bottom of the box and gave it to her.

Of course Luke looked down on those weapons. He didn't have any nostalgia complex.

Really nostalgic, he would also choose m4a1.

Although this gun is not the best, it is the most popular vehicle-mounted rifle used by American police.

Now he has two m4a1s and a Remington shotgun in his car.
