Compared with the determination and actions of these half-grown children to change their destiny, this reward is not worth mentioning.
It is difficult for people who do not live in slums to imagine the hardships involved.
Especially the African-American group, most of the same race around them are eating and waiting to die, living in a daze, and it is even more difficult to climb out.
Not even Matt and Fudge, who were white after all.
And Luke's life before the age of eighteen was ordinary at best, but it had nothing to do with hardship.
Robert Catherine and Grandpa Drakes provided the three children with a medium-quality life education and meticulous care.
As for the ten and a half-year-old children in the decoration team, they were either fatherless (dead) or better than fatherless (in jail or left alone).
They were raised by old mothers, which is also a major feature of the impoverished African-American group.
For this reason, both Selena and Fudge were surprised by Luke's donation, but they did not object.
With such a good mood, Luke and the two went to the police station and went to Dustin's office.
Today's report is not on the agenda, but Dustin called to call, so we can't negotiate conditions.
The usual looseness means that you must support when you need it.
After entering the office, Dustin, who was buried in the documents, didn't even look up. He just glanced at the figures of the two and raised his finger. Selena, who was standing by the door, immediately closed the door.
After working together for so long, with just a little action, everyone knows what process to follow.
However, Luke, who is in a good mood, wants to be skinny today, so he asked first, "Boss, do you have a long-lost brother named Justin Hammer?"
Hearing that Dustin stopped flipping through the files, he folded it up and threw it on the table, and raised his head: "He's my cousin, did he offend you? No problem, you can do whatever you want with him."
Luke:…
Selena: …
This is what Selena said casually when the two were watching the news, and Luke said that she had no brains, now...
Selina immediately glanced sideways at Luke to see if the guy's face hurts.
Luke didn't realize that he was ashamed, but looked at Dustin with a strange face: "Boss, you never said that you have such a relative?"
Dustin chuckled, with neither pride nor anger and jealousy in his expression, he just said lightly: "Because the relationship is a bit far away, going back four generations is our common grandfather."
That is, Dustin and Justin are the same great-grandfather, or they are both great-great-grandsons of a certain old Hammer.
Looking at the expressions of the two of them, Dustin still said flatly: "Since my father, my family has nothing to do with that side, and I don't bother to mention it."
Luke and the two still don't understand.
It's not that he asked too much, then Dustin would never mention this in his life, because Dustin himself doesn't care about this relative.
But if Luke asked, he wouldn't lie.
It can only be said that the relationship between Dustin and Luke is no longer a pure ally or friend, so they are so frank.
Dustin didn't continue talking about this topic, and started to talk about business: "Tony Stark is coming to New York, you know?"
Without two people answering, he said: "He is going to hold the second Stark Industries Expo. There will be an official opening ceremony in three days, so we have received a familiar task, do you understand?"
Luke rolled his eyes: "Patrolling the venue?"
Dustin: "In view of your excellent performance at the Los Angeles Industry Fair last time, you will go to the opening ceremony to patrol this time and be responsible for the communication between the police department and the Stark Group security. Is there a problem?"
Luke: "... no problem."
The so-called raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while, Dustin has been stocking them for more than a month, and it is also his duty to let them move around.
Who told that it was the Stark Group! Who told a certain pair of partners to be related to Stark!
In fact, Dustin and the two of them knew it well.
After the two were listed as "strategic weapons" that should not be used lightly, the efficiency of the two in receiving and solving cases was greatly reduced. When they were in the Los Angeles West District Serious Crime Unit, their sharpness of one top three or even one top five disappeared.
Judging from the data alone, the two of them are currently handling cases at the first-class level of the police department, a bit behind the top John McLean, and there are four or five other partners of the same level.
Because that's enough.
Although the two handled the relationship between their colleagues in the police station well, they were still too young, and they were still airborne from outside. Too hard work would only make those old police detectives feel uncomfortable.
The two of them have no need for promotion for the time being, and being too diligent will only reduce the possibility of others being promoted, which will affect the currently good office atmosphere.
Luke and Selena also need more free time to improve their own strength, and spend one-third of others' time on performance, so that others can't pick the thorns.
Therefore, they are actually very leisurely, and performing such time-consuming patrol tasks will not have much impact on the police department.
The two readily accepted the task and got up to leave.
Driving out of the headquarters, the two stopped by Flushing, Queens, where the Stark Industries Expo was held.
In fact, a few nights ago, Tony announced the start of the Stark Industries Expo when he fell from the sky, but the exhibition area was still under construction.
The Stark Industries Expo was different from the last fair in Los Angeles.
The first industrial expo was held by Tony's father in 1974, and this is the only time.
Now, Tony is holding the second session.
Secondly, unlike the fair that mainly focuses on Stark Group products, the Stark Industry Expo exhibitors are high-tech companies from all over the world, and it is a world-class platform.
In terms of martial arts, this is a technological version of the world martial arts conference, and everyone competes for attention based on their own abilities.
During the one-year exhibition time, most of the venues will also be adjusted with the changes of exhibitors.
Not every company has enough exhibits. After the one-year exhibition period, many small venues have new companies and new products appearing every now and then.
There is even a "Self-employed" exhibition area in the venue.
As long as they pass the test of the exposition management department, those individual inventors can also put their wonderful gadgets on this world-class stage for a day.
On the way, Luke and Selena decided that as long as they had time, they would go to this sportswear exhibition area to see, maybe they could meet interesting gizmos.
Many technologies are very tasteless to inventors, because they are difficult to realize. If they do not realize, they will have no money to continue research, and if they do not have money to research, it will be even more difficult to realize.
Luke felt that as long as he found one or two good things from it, the security trip would be worth it.
For the next two days, the two of them ran around the venue, not even going to the restaurant for lunch, and put it in the car in the morning.
After lunch, the two of them took advantage of their free time to go to the individual meeting booths to watch the excitement.
