Luke smiled, put away the sketches and put them back in place, then he put his arms around her: "No, I think what we need to do more is to continue to deepen our understanding of each other, a deeper understanding..."
Elena exclaimed: "Wait, I want another cup of coffee... Um"
Luke chuckled, "Isn't there one in my mouth?"
…
The next day, the rain outside the window did not stop after a night, but became even heavier.
The two did not go out for sightseeing, even though Paris in the rain had a unique charm.
In Irena's words, she had had enough of strolling around the streets and alleys of Paris, and she just wanted to stay at home quietly today.
Luke readily followed suit and went to the small coffee shop on the corner to buy breakfast early, and the two of them stayed indoors in their small apartment.
Elena looked at the window and suddenly said that it would be nice if she could open the window and look at the rain outside directly.
Luke laughed, slipped away to her father Pierre's tool room, found some tools and materials, and worked slowly for half an hour to make some changes to her window.
Although Tony Stark's ability is machining, it is not difficult to modify windows with wooden structures.
Seeing the window change from opening to the sides to opening upwards, Elena said in surprise: "Is this okay?"
Luke smiled and said, "China had windows like this thousands of years ago. I didn't invent them."
As he spoke, he pushed the metal rods on both sides into the buckles, pushing up the window: "How is it, is this okay?"
Elena smiled and waved. After Luke put down his tools and walked over, she gave him a passionate kiss: "Are you really a policeman? I feel like you're more like a repairman."
Luke bent slightly, carried her on his back and moved around the hut, then walked to the sink and washed the dust and sawdust off his hands. "Yeah, I'm pretty good at fixing some things."
For example, people! He muttered in his heart.
After a while, the two sat back at the small table, drinking coffee and looking at the hazy Paris in the rain.
A breeze with the scent of rain blew in from the window, making the room cooler.
Elena shivered, and Luke smiled and pulled the blanket over her, saying, "Don't catch a cold."
Elena was about to answer when she exclaimed softly, “No, just sit like this for a while… Ah, forget it, whatever you want.”
Luke picked up the coffee on the table and poured her another cup: "Is it more comfortable to drink this way?"
Elena bit her lip lightly: "Can't you just stay quiet for a while?"
Luke shrugged: "I'm very honest now."
Elena was speechless.
Until night fell, Luke finished his bath and got ready. He looked at Elena dozing on the bed and walked up to her and gave her a gentle kiss.
She responded dazedly, then suddenly opened her eyes and woke up with a start: "Are you leaving?"
Luke nodded: "The next plane."
Elena said, "I see. You can go now."
Luke looked at her expression, laughed, and rubbed her: "You can come to Los Angeles for a trip when you have time. There are many art centers there."
Elena stared at him: "Aren't you afraid that I will disturb your work?"
Luke: "When you go there, will you just look at me every day instead of looking at the artworks you like?"
Elena hit him and said, "You should ask that love guru for some more love words. These words are not touching at all. Let's go, don't miss the flight."
Luke kissed her again, picked up his backpack and went out.
Elena didn't get up, but just lay on the bed, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
A gust of wind blew and she shivered, awakening from her future academic plans. She pulled the blanket over her naked body.
Looking at the still-open window and the faint lights outside, she sighed contentedly, "It's so beautiful."
After boarding the scheduled flight, Luke was not bored. He took out the newspaper he bought before boarding the plane and leisurely read the headlines.
What's happening in Europe lately
Of course, there is only one biggest thing, which is the Duhovic series of cases that occurred in The Hague, Netherlands.
From Coventry, England to Amsterdam, Netherlands, and finally to The Hague, a series of serious violent incidents in these places were confirmed to be related to the butcher Duhovic.
What's even more bizarre is that this butcher had planned everything, but in the end he was thrown down from the court building while escaping and was impaled on the iron railings and died.
The photo of Duhovic hanging on the iron railings has been a frequent headline in European newspapers in the past few days.
Although the newspapers are basically mosaiced for the sake of harmony, there are plenty of high-definition pictures without mosaics from various angles on the Internet.
At the same time, the hottest topic on the Internet was not the dead man Duhovic, but the angel of judgment who threw him off the building.
Almost all the reporters in the court square at that time took pictures of the "Angel of Judgment" dropping Duhovich and flying away.
These photos were then reprinted by more newspapers, causing the public, who originally didn't care about Duhovic, to become curious about the matter.
European netizens who are more active in thinking have put forward a new argument: because of the appearance of American Batman, our superheroes have also appeared! The era of superheroes is coming, let's cheer!
When Luke saw the information on the Internet during the day, he couldn't help but marvel at the quick thinking of these netizens.
The world's era of superheroes is really about to arrive!
Even without him, we are bound to usher in an era where superheroes and supervillains take turns dominating the headlines.
He is not interested in being in the limelight; what he cares about is the public opinion in the newspapers.
Generally speaking, information revealed by larger media outlets tends to have certain tendencies.
When all media outlets use a similar tone, it means there is a clear official consensus.
When it comes to manipulating the media, the Western world is a professional and can manipulate the lower classes without causing any trouble.
All this would not change until the advent of smartphones.
Because anyone with a smartphone and some software can become an eyewitness with "pictures and the truth".
It will become more difficult to conceal the truth and fool the people.
Luke has been looking forward to that era for a long time!
Taking off at night and landing at night, Luke breathed the summer night air in Los Angeles and felt like he was home.
However, the experience points in the system made him extremely satisfied with this private job.
Host experience: 46350/90000.
Points: 35050.
In four days, 16,000 experience points were earned, which was extremely efficient.
After killing Duhovic, the system gave him 3,000 experience points at once, proving that this guy was indeed a real butcher.
Spending the last day with Elena made him feel relaxed both physically and mentally, and the whole journey came to a perfect end.
After taking a taxi from the airport, the house was quiet. After Luke simply washed up, he went to the workshop to work.
His hands are itching because he hasn't done any handicrafts these days.
