Being A Detective in The World of Film and Television

Chapter 776: Love rival? Another love rival? (3 more)

Views:

Luke and the other man danced and chatted on the side for a few minutes, and were finally spotted by the sharp-eyed little monkey, who ran over with a smile.

Karen and Hooks also came to say hello.

However, Karen had a strange look on her face, looking back and forth between Luke and Selina.

That look seemed like he was sizing up... his love rival

Luke and Selina looked calm and greeted them respectively, and then he was pulled by Claire to dance.

Of course, the two of them were not dancing a duet. Instead, they went to the campfire and danced with the revelers without taking off their shirts.

After dancing for a while, Luke finally pulled the little monkey back.

The little monkey handed him a can of beer, but he refused it decisively, so he could only give him a can of Coke instead: "So you want to drink too, right?"

Luke shrugged. “I stopped drinking after I became a police officer.”

This habit is not because he has a low alcohol tolerance, but because alcohol has almost no effect on him, just like the reason why a certain old popsicle man doesn't drink much.

Coke can at least supplement a lot of calories and provide the body's daily consumption.

After sitting there chatting and laughing for a while, Karen took the initiative to sit on the other side of him.

Selina ignored it and continued drinking beer and chatting with Claire and Hooks.

Karen couldn't even compare to Miss Ginny in terms of how readily she took off her clothes, so she was still a long way from success.

Suddenly a girl walked up to Luke and held out her hand: "Hello, nice to meet you."

Luke smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hers: "Just call me Luke."

"My name is Clarice." The above-average girl introduced herself to him.

Luke still smiled and looked at the two people holding hands: "Is this an invitation?"

Clarisse seemed to be stunned for a moment, holding his hand without letting go.

After hearing what Luke said, she started to laugh: “Oh, maybe you’re too handsome, so I can’t help myself.”

The two men loosened their hands.

Then, Clarisse stretched out her hand in front of Selina: "I don't think we've ever met before. Would you like to get to know each other?"

Luke reached out and held her hand again: "Just call her Selina. But can I invite you to dance?"

Clarisse was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's great."

Under the gaze of several girls, Luke took the girl who suddenly appeared and walked into the dancing crowd.

Hooks was confused.

Karen was filled with surprise and thought to herself: Another love rival

Claire had a strange look on her face. She looked at Selina on the left and Karen on the right. She always felt that her brother would be in trouble if he went back home tonight.

Selina looked calm as she picked up the beer and took a sip, but her eyes fell on Clarisse.

She knew very well who Luke was.

It is definitely not normal to actively approach a girl like this.

Karen, the beautiful, wealthy young lady, took the initiative to attack many times but made no progress. It was even more abnormal that a girl who appeared out of nowhere was immediately pulled by him to dance.

Thinking about how Luke had just intervened and prevented her from shaking hands with Clarice, Selina became even more suspicious.

She told Claire beside her that she wanted to go to the bathroom, so she took a US dollar and went to the woods.

After staying in the car for a while, she quickly returned to the beach and sat back next to Claire.

Of course Luke noticed her actions and secretly praised her, but continued, "Really? You're from Texas? That's a coincidence, I'm from Texas too..."

More than half an hour later, Luke came back, asked Claire to get in the car, and said he had good news to tell her and that she should go home and rest tonight.

Claire naturally had no objection. After saying goodbye to Karen Hooks, she got in the car and left together.

Luke casually typed a name on the tablet and handed it to Selina in the passenger seat.

Claire in the back seat was surprised: "Hey, Meidao, you are very lively today. Oh, there is so much saliva, haha, no licking, no licking!"

But Luke knew that because the US dollar is now just a US dollar, the gold nugget's number one clone has already symbiotically coexisted with Selina.

He smiled, with an inexplicable look in his eyes: "Claire, are you familiar with that classmate named Clarice?"

Claire resisted Meidao's saliva attack and shook her head: "It's normal. We talked a few times, but we didn't have much contact."

"What's her personality like?" he continued.

Claire was surprised: "Luke, you are not really planning to pursue her, are you? Well, I'm not saying she's bad, but I really don't know much about her. How about I go and ask around tomorrow?"

Luke: "No, I just think she's quite cheerful."

Selina on the side looked at him and shook her head slightly.

This was telling him that there was no doubt about Clarice's identity, and there was no match in the criminal database or the archives of important people.

Luke looked away and casually told Claire about the volunteer position he had found for her.

Claire was stunned for a moment, then screamed, "Ahh! Luke, is this true?"

Luke frowned, enduring the itchy eardrums: "You shouldn't be so happy, right? You're not a die-hard fan of Sheila."

Claire screamed, "Don't you know about this charity concert? There are already 20 celebrities and singers who have been announced to participate, including two rock bands I like... Well, well, you must not have heard of their names."

She then remembered that her brother didn't even know that Sheila's new song topped the charts, so how could he care about which celebrity singers would attend the charity performance.

Luke laughed: "Then you have to be mentally prepared."

Claire: "What preparations?"

Luke quickly put on two headsets and said, "The minimum number of stars and singers expected to participate in this charity show is 50, and the ideal number is... 100."

"Ahh~" Claire screamed again.

Selina covered her ears in annoyance and glared at him with accusing eyes: He knew Claire was going to scream again, but he actually gave him a headset.

The drooling monster Meidao in the back seat was so scared that she whimpered and shrank to the side, away from the existence that suddenly transformed into a screaming banshee.

After returning home, the overly excited Claire was dragged by Selena, who couldn't stand it anymore, to go for fighting training, and the living room became quiet again.

Luke connected to the database at home and started looking for the information of the girl, Clarice Johnson.

Just now, after this Clarisse touched his hand, the system prompt sounded.

System: An unknown energy is discovered trying to connect with the host's mind. Do you accept it

He decisively chose no and prevented this Clarice from having any contact with Selina.

God knows how this mental connection is activated, but it is safer not to act according to the other party's wishes.

Claire has always had Gold Nugget No. 2's clone with her, and the symbiotic state has a strong resistance to mental attacks, so the chances of problems occurring are low.
