The points dropped by one million again, and the upgrade of the storage module had to be postponed, but Luke was not in a hurry.
Since the last time he met Mephisto's clone, he always had to leave enough points to rest assured.
After closing his eyes to experience the effect of the primary light of life for a moment, he raised his right hand in doubt.
A few seconds later, a faint white light appeared on the tip of his index finger.
If it is in the sun, this white light will be directly ignored by people.
But in the laboratory at night, at a distance of more than ten centimeters in front of his eyes, he could clearly see a layer of faint white light of about five millimeters on the index finger.
Luke had a strange expression on his face. Feeling the system's simple explanation of this ability, he murmured: "No way, legal ability?...Nurse?"
After thinking for a while, he picked up a scalpel and cut a very shallow and small wound on the unconscious Tandy's arm, similar to the kind cut by the edge of a piece of paper.
Then, he put the tip of his right finger, which was glowing with faint white light, on the wound.
But before the finger was pressed firmly, the layer of white light approached the wound, and in the blink of an eye, the tiny wound disappeared without a trace.
Luke's eyes widened: "holyshxt! Is it really the ability of a nanny?"
As far as the light and shadow special effects and actual effects are concerned, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a healing technique exclusive to the nurse!
Facing this harvest, he was not happy for too long, but gradually frowned.
With such good luck recently, he always has an ominous premonition.
As the saying goes, extremes must be reversed, he has continuously acquired very practical abilities during this period, could it be the enlightenment given to him by the old man
Thinking about how soon she was involved in a theft case when he went to Sheila's performance, Luke's heart was heavy, and even the light of life couldn't dispel the vague worry in his heart.
In his previous life, he was very non-chief.
I have won toilet paper since I was a child when I bought scratch-off prizes.
Buying lottery tickets only won 20 yuan once a year, and 5 yuan three times.
Playing mahjong which starts at 50 cents, I lost more than 100 yuan in one afternoon.
In this life, relying on his system father, he seems to have escaped the curse of the non-chief, but now he finds that his friend seems to be brought into a non-chief by him.
The mood can only be said to be... quite complicated.
The reality always likes to joke, several days passed that night, New York was still noisy, but no major events happened.
In addition, the diamond necklace stolen by the little thief Tandy was recovered the next afternoon.
This gave Luke and Selena another chance to be lazy.
This case is not too complicated.
Tandy Bowen, a seventeen-year-old girl, dropped out of high school and followed her boyfriend to steal for a living.
But there is a seriously ill mother in her family who needs medical bills, so she can only steal things here and there.
It's a lot like a script written by a TV screenwriter, but this time it's real.
In fact, there are more bloody places.
Tandy's father is a senior engineer of the American Big Mac Roxon Company, and she used to be considered a rich man's child.
Because of a large-scale offshore platform accident, the girl's father died in a car accident, and the Roxon Company took the responsibility for the accident to the dead senior engineer.
Tandy's house was evacuated under the pretext of Roxon Company, and the mother and daughter became paupers overnight. The mother was full of depression and anger, and soon fell ill, and stayed in bed for many years.
Luke didn't know how to complain when he heard this real event that was as standard as a TV drama.
Although he always believed that mistakes were wrong, he couldn't ask a teenage girl to find a way out of the predicament by herself.
It is best not to count on charitable donations and the like. This kind of thing is always a drop in the bucket, and it is impossible to provide it all the time after the application is approved.
Stealing is undoubtedly the easiest way to make money.
It is one of the two minimum-threshold occupations in the United States, together with the act of mixing guns and charging passers-by "tolls".
In recent years, it was her boyfriend who took Tandy to commit multiple thefts.
Trained his girlfriend to be a thief, this boyfriend is not a serious person, and also suffers from the typical brain deficiency of the bottom gangsters.
After getting the diamond necklace, he felt that he would make a fortune by selling the diamond necklace, and there was no need to give Tandy any money.
So, this brainless boyfriend found a reason to trick Tandy out of the car on a remote street, stepped on the accelerator and slipped away.
Tandy just came back to his senses and yelled loudly, when he was blocked into the alley by those gangsters.
As a result, Luke heard Tandy's cry for help when he went back, and rescued her.
Under the control of primary pheromones, Tandy easily confessed everything, including the license plate of the brainless boyfriend.
The next afternoon, this guy didn't even change his car, so he went to a black shop to sell his stolen goods.
A patrolman found that the license plate belonged to the suspect vehicle, stopped the car and arrested the person on the spot, and brought the brain defect and the diamond necklace on the co-pilot back to the police station.
So far, less than 24 hours after the theft of the diamond necklace, the lost property has been recovered and the suspect arrested.
It's impossible for Tandy's boyfriend to get rich alone, but it's safe to go to jail alone.
Luke's treatment of Tandy was compared to the initial treatment of the trio of super girls, and he was first sent to live in a secluded bungalow in Nassau County.
She has to receive re-education there for a few months to a year, which is equivalent to entering a private juvenile correctional institution.
During this period, Luke anonymously donated a large amount of money through a certain fund, asking him to come forward to help Tandy's mother pay for medical expenses and living expenses.
After confirming that her mother had received this kind of treatment, Tandy's resistance quickly weakened, and she accepted the re-education course honestly.
This is done for two reasons.
First, Luke didn't want to use primary pheromone manipulation on Tandy too much.
The girl is basically mentally normal. If you have been holding grudges and deliberately resisting pheromone manipulation, the time and effect of manipulation will be greatly reduced.
The continued confrontation between the two may cause serious psychological problems.
Private detective Jessica Jones is a typical example.
Second, Tandy's light of life not only allows Luke to learn, her original version is different from his "abbreviated version", which has extremely high practical value.
As a pragmatist, Luke believes that Tandy's abilities can be used to save many people.
Waiting until the juvenile re-education course is over, it is more meaningful for her to be a community volunteer or charity volunteer to atone for her past theft than to let her go to jail.
It took him several days to finish dealing with matters related to Tandy.
At this time, the system points reached 1.04 million.
Luke has harassed the system in the past few days and made it clear that the upgrade of the storage module will not affect the ordinary items and creatures stored in it, but the access operation cannot be performed during the upgrade process.
With a thought, he called out the system.
System: Upgrading the storage module requires 1,000,000 points, do you want to upgrade
He chose yes.
System: "This upgrade takes 24 hours, and the storage module function cannot be used during this period."
Luke wasn't too surprised.
If expected, the volume of the upgraded storage space will change from 10x10x10=1000 cubic meters to 100x100x100=1 million cubic meters.
Not taking the time to upgrade will surprise him instead.
