Aurora almost got angry again when she got this glance, but her husband Jeffrey's hand hidden behind her back pulled her hard.
She suddenly came to her senses.
In any case, it is at least progress that my daughter is willing to come home.
What will happen in the future can be seen slowly.
Luke looked at the two sides and saw that they had basically reached a compromise. He smiled and said, "Well, by the way, do you need me to provide a third-party psychologist? She's very good."
The family of three turned their heads at the same time: Are you a policeman or a medical fraud
Although the family expressed doubts about Luke's profession for the first time, Lindsay only hesitated slightly before agreeing to let him introduce a doctor, and asked him to come to the police station immediately to give Monroe a preliminary diagnosis.
She inexplicably felt a sense of trust in this calm and peaceful young detective.
Moreover, a few words that Luke said seemingly unintentionally also reminded her.
If a formal record of the mediation was left at the police station, some of her parents' tactics would not be so effective.
Lindsay is not stupid. In fact, it is because she is too smart that her parents pay so much attention to her.
She also didn't think Luke's behavior was arranged by his parents. Although there was no direct evidence, she was inexplicably certain of this.
The psychologist introduced by Luke was certainly more reliable than the doctor she found afterwards.
She knew too well the power her parents had in New York. If things went wrong, they could replace the doctor with one of their own, and Monroe would be in big trouble.
In less than half an hour, the high heels came quickly with the clacking sound and stopped in front of the door. The door opened, and a girl with big wavy blonde hair and black-framed glasses appeared in front of everyone.
The whole family was stunned.
Lindsay opened her mouth in astonishment and was about to say something, but suddenly closed it forcefully, with a look of delight in her eyes.
The blonde with black-framed glasses glanced at everyone and nodded to Luke as usual: "Hello, Detective Coulson, who are you interviewing?"
"Hello, Doctor Harley." Luke smiled and pointed to Monroe over there: "That's the one. But you need to discuss the consultation with these three. They have some special requirements."
Having said that, he walked out tactfully, and gave Beckett a look before leaving.
After the two of them came out and closed the door, he whispered to Beckett, "When Monroe's consultation begins, you can talk to Lindsay about your case first. I think there's still a slight chance that she'll agree. Don't hold out too much hope for Monroe, as his mental state is really bad."
Beckett nodded, but couldn't help but be curious: "You took psychology as a minor in college?"
Luke gave her a strange look and said, "I taught myself a little, but I didn't have the chance to study this in college."
Beckett said, "Thank you, Luke. You can come to me if you need anything in the future."
This means to remember a small favor for him.
These colleagues in the Detective Bureau also have different levels of closeness.
Without this kind of personal connections, many people would not agree to many things outright.
Like Luke asked John and Joe for help a few days ago, so next time these two people ask him for help, he has to agree.
However, everyone can clearly distinguish the levels of this kind of favor. For example, Beckett's favor is much smaller than John's.
Because that is using personal connections to help, while this is just a small favor in official matters.
And the question she asked Luke just now made him realize: this girl is still very young.
At least, she wasn't too familiar with the Walter→John→Joe line, otherwise how could she not know that Luke didn't go to college.
She even didn't pay enough attention to the gossip inside the detective bureau and Luke. Otherwise, it would be relatively easier to find out about Luke since he was only nineteen years old.
But, this is not a bad thing.
For someone who focuses on work and doesn't care about office gossip, it may not be easy to get promoted or get a raise, but it will be much more comfortable to get along with than those amateur "underground intelligence officers".
Luke went to Dustin's office and informed him that everything was under control.
Dustin was suspicious: "Are you sure?" Is it really that easy to deal with? Is it necessary for this family to make such trouble that they became famous in NYPD!
Luke: "If we're lucky, this time things will really stop. If we're unlucky... maybe it will stop for a week or two."
As long as the family quarrels at home, the entire NYPD doesn't care how many family dramas will be staged.
Even for Luke, most of the family disputes he handled as a detective resulted in serious injuries or deaths, and he had basically never dealt with purely emotional disputes.
A certain middle-aged widower who hasn't even married yet is even more impatient than Luke with these kinds of shitty affairs involving rich families.
Dustin just asked with concern: "What if they reduce the donation amount?"
Luke hesitated for two seconds before answering, "Even if they surrender, it won't necessarily be my fault."
Dustin was speechless and raised his hand and said, "Get lost."
Because he realized that he had indeed asked a stupid question.
It is indeed easy for false accusations to happen, but the troubled family has gone through police mediation seven or eight times.
Even if we don’t get much donation from the Soderberghs next year, who can be sure what offended them
This is not ancient times. The bigwigs above cannot hold all those suspected of being responsible accountable for trumped-up charges.
The same thing happens in the United States: the law does not hold everyone accountable.
After going out, Luke looked towards the interrogation room. Javier was the only one left at the door. It must be that Beckett had made some gains.
He solved the family's troubles with efficiency beyond expectations, and he no longer stayed in the detective bureau.
After sending a text message and waiting for another ten minutes, he got up and went out.
At the door, I found a taxi and got in. The driver smiled and asked, "Are you in a hurry today?"
Luke smiled and handed over the fare: "Of course... We're not in a hurry. Please make sure to keep your "plane" at the lowest speed. It's snowing today."
"My car can be switched to snow mode at any time." Bell nodded regretfully in the driver's seat. "When I saw your text message, I thought I would have a chance to chase the suspect like I did last time."
Luke was helpless about this: "This is basically a plot that only exists in movies and TV shows, right? Most of the time, the police drive themselves."
Bell thought so too.
The last time Luke rented her car to arrest someone, he was a lapd detective.
It's really a rare opportunity for lapd to come to New York to arrest someone but he doesn't have a car.
Even though there was a light snowfall and the ground was slippery, it took Bell just over ten minutes to reach Clinton.
Luke and Bell waved goodbye and went into... Nelson-Murdoch law firm.
It's snowing outside today, but there are still quite a few people coming and going in the office, and most of them look happy.
Luke knew why.
The reconstruction plan has been launched, and the first batch of trial renovation teams have officially begun repairing the houses of several severely damaged families.
