Being A Detective in The World of Film and Television

Chapter 88: Soft knife, taking advantage of the topic

Views:

Luke handed this thing over because it was too hot to handle and was no longer useful to him, so he might as well hand it over with great fanfare.

Watching Wells and Cheney leave with the helicopter, Luke and Selina waved goodbye in the open space behind the police station.

When faced with inquiries from several colleagues in the police station, he pretended to answer a few questions casually, roughly meaning that there was some evidence in his previous case, and the FBI attached great importance to it, so they sent someone to take it away.

From this moment on, whether it is SHIELD, Hydra, or even Umbrella, they can easily know all of this.

Taking away the T virus and serum meant that Luke was no longer of noteworthy value.

At this point, Luke had dealt with all his troubles and spent the three-day holiday peacefully without anyone coming to ask them questions.

Thinking about how the two fake FBI agents asked the two to sign another confidentiality agreement, Luke understood that this must be SHIELD taking over his affairs.

Because of SHIELD's confidentiality agreement, neither the FBI nor the police can investigate him anymore.

Want to know what's going on? Go to S.H.I.E.L.D.

Oh, maybe I should look for that FBI Branch 17 that doesn't even have an office.

Three days later, the two returned to work and arrived at the police station, where they found that many people were talking about Raccoon City.

However, the incident in Raccoon City has been officially defined as a nuclear power plant accident, almost the same as in the movie. Apparently, a consensus has been reached at the top level and the matter has been suppressed.

The content recorded by Terry on the DV became confidential and never appeared in the newspapers.

Since Chief Thomas didn't notify them, the two men certainly didn't need to bother him and could just go to work honestly.

When Borick saw the two of them, his face looked quite grim.

He couldn't hide his emotions at all, or he didn't want to hide them at all.

He threw a file to the two men with that dead face and sent them out to work.

Luke and the other man behaved normally, as if they didn't see Borick's dead face.

When they returned to their desks, no one greeted them this time.

Obviously, everyone knew that Boric was dissatisfied with them, and no one wanted to offend his direct superior for two newcomers with whom he had no relationship.

The two of them didn't care. Selina even said in a low voice while reading the file: "You guessed right again. This guy is really... narrow-minded."

Luke looked calm as he flipped through the files: "Who made him so unlucky! He was exposed after just a little thought."

After looking at the file for a while, Luke threw it on the table and leaned back in his chair. "Now he is smarter and uses some trivial cases to get rid of us."

Selina also picked it up and read it for a while, and she understood: "It's not surprising that this missing woman case can't be solved in a lifetime. Even if it is found, it may not yield much. Maybe this woman ran away because she couldn't stand the domestic violence."

Luke nodded, "That's it. Let's go, we still have to handle the case, and get familiar with our jurisdiction. This situation is temporary at best, he can't suppress us for long."

The two men had just arrived and needed to take a case from Berrick.

But as long as they are familiar with the jurisdiction and have established their own network of relationships, many cases will find them automatically.

Anyone who has watched American TV series such as NYPD will have noticed a plot where detectives in the crime squad often leave their contact information to certain people involved in the case.

Over time, when these people encounter some trouble, they will directly contact these detectives, and that's how cases come about.

If a few informants with suitable identities are developed, it is possible for the detectives to find clues themselves to discover the case and solve it.

This kind of case is found by the detective himself and generally solved by him.

Of course, Borick could also take the case over and hand it over to someone else, provided that he knew what case the two were investigating, and he couldn't keep taking over cases like this.

Whoever finds the case owns it. This is an explicit rule.

This right will only be lost if some detectives only know how to find cases, have no ability to solve them, and cause a lot of trouble.

Luke and his companion had just arrived, so he was not in a hurry to do this.

There's nothing wrong with taking a few months to get your bearings.

Over the next few days, there was no progress in the missing person case handled by Luke and his friend.

I followed the procedure to find the neighbors and colleagues of the missing woman to understand the situation, but to no avail.

There was no obvious suspicion regarding the missing woman's husband, and the case came to a standstill.

Selina was a little anxious, but Luke was not.

I investigate cases every day and drive the police car out to find a place to exercise.

The shooting range is simple, and the police station has its own cooperative shooting range, so the price of practicing shooting is very cheap.

They also found a place with a separate room for the two of them to practice Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

It is quite easy to find information about such places within the police station, but it requires two people to check the specific environment and prices.

Of course, the two men went to a small martial arts school near the police station. The owner was a middle-aged Chinese man, and it was said that he practiced Hung Gar.

Luke didn't care much about this, he just found a room from this small martial arts gym and used it on an hourly basis.

The small martial arts school's business was not very good and the room was often empty, so they did not refuse the deal.

Well, maybe Selena is one of the reasons.

When a beautiful woman speaks, it is much more powerful than when Luke speaks, and the owner can make a small profit, so he is not dissatisfied.

The two of them handled the matter, investigating the case at work every day and exercising after get off work.

Now that she had a place to vent her energy, Selina's anxious mood calmed down.

Every time Borick gave the two a new case, he would pull out a case in which the two had made no progress and use it as evidence to criticize the two for not handling the case seriously.

Luke even secretly pulled Selina aside to prevent this silly girl from confronting a certain team leader.

He doesn't care about it at all.

This matter could not be brought to the table, neither Berrick nor the other two were like this.

If Borick dared to say this in the hall outside, then the entire serious crime team would be what he called trash, careless garbage.

Because they have a lot of cases that have not been solved for months or years.

Luke just watched Berrick's performance quietly, and when he finished speaking, he went out with a new file.

But when he left, he was as polite as usual. He didn't even say goodbye and just took Selina away.

Borrick looked gloomy, but there was nothing he could do.

Luke has Thomas above him and a big case on his hands, so he really doesn't have much way to deal with them.

The last time they sent the two to Raccoon City to investigate a case, they were called by Thomas and scolded. The deputy director pointed at Borick unceremoniously and said that he was a pig-brained idiot.
