Even if the two women carried out his orders almost without hesitation, it was useless.
As long as he relaxes for a few days, the idea of getting rid of his order will arise in their consciousness.
Especially Erica Black Sky, the brainwashing effect disappeared more than twice as fast as Angel.
These two people can only be kept as temporary thugs! Luke didn't feel disappointed when he thought so.
Life is alive, it is impossible to always go smoothly, but accidents and difficulties often persist.
In this peaceful day, the time came to June 18th.
This day happened to be Luke's twentieth birthday, and it was also the second anniversary of the system's official activation.
A low-key person like Luke, of course, would not make a fuss.
In his last life, he didn't have a birthday, so he went home and asked his mother to make him an extra favorite braised pork and a bowl of longevity noodles.
Other friends and the like may send him a short message of birthday wishes.
Those who don't remember are simpler, which means that the other party's birthday is no longer there and he needs to remember it.
But Dustin didn't let him go so easily.
Taking advantage of this excuse, the boss of the immediate boss once again proposed that everyone come to a small private party that has not been held for a long time.
Forget about the Dustin family, he is still a bachelor and rarely at home, so he only rents a small apartment in Manhattan.
He and Lawyer Jennifer can barely get along in it. It is definitely not possible to hold a party, and the kitchen can't squeeze two people into it.
The final venue was set at Elizabeth's home.
This was proposed by Elizabeth on her own initiative, and everyone has no objections.
The home Elizabeth mentioned was not in Manhattan, but in New Jersey.
It's just that this home is a little farther away from the Hudson River. It takes about forty minutes to drive to the headquarters to work here.
When everyone arrived, they were all amazed.
However, Luke and Selena are pretending, and this information is already in the polyhedron intelligence system.
Lawyer Dustin and Jennifer were a little surprised, but they didn't pay much attention to it.
Only Elsa was the most surprised, because she had been to Elizabeth's "home" several times. It was a single apartment in Manhattan. Although it was relatively spacious, it was still an apartment.
Now Elizabeth was surprised that she had bought a house in New Jersey without saying a word.
What surprised her even more was that there was a "big bathtub" behind this small one-story house of more than 200 square meters—it was the same brand as the one in the backyard of someone's Los Angeles villa, but with a more feminine style and more functions.
Not counting the weather, the environment of this house is six to seven points similar to that small villa in Los Angeles.
After Luke and Dustin were arranged for a barbecue dinner, and the four women changed into swimsuits and went to the big tub to enjoy, this sense of familiarity became even more apparent.
Dustin was sitting on a recliner, not far from the grill, holding a bottle of beer and drinking slowly.
He didn't want to be lazy, but the things he baked were at most cooked, and there was no standard at all for the rest.
Luke decisively let him cool off.
Dustin squinted at the four women on the side, and couldn't help coughing lightly.
Seeing Luke's gaze, he lowered his voice: "Although I shouldn't interfere with your young people's affairs, we are all friends after all. I advise you, don't play it off."
(￣△￣!) Luke: I didn't expect you to be such a Dustin!
"If your words are true, the premise is that I am "playing"." Luke also lowered his voice: "But in private, Elizabeth and I have never been alone. You think too much."
Dustin frowned. He didn't doubt that Luke was lying. Lying in this matter was unnecessary and would be troublesome in the future.
He pondered for a moment: "That's Elizabeth to you...huh?"
Looking at the "you know" look from him, Luke sighed: "I mentioned it several times before, I have regular female friends. But that's all, I can't "take the initiative" to express Say no."
Of course Dustin understood, which meant that Elizabeth did not express it directly.
Just relying on speculation and conjecture, why do you think Elizabeth must like Luke
He couldn't help scratching his head: "This... you should pay more attention to yourself, it's best not to develop to the point of no return."
Luke snorted: "There is no development at all. You think I am you, and you will stick with Jennifer when you find a chance. When will you get engaged?"
Dustin was surprised: "Next month... Wait, I haven't told Jennifer yet, how did you know?"
Luke shrugged his shoulders: "Guess. But you are not young, Jennifer is very nice, don't miss it if it suits you. A man's word - don't shrink, just do it."
At the party that night, Jennifer did not receive Dustin's engagement ring, but Luke received birthday presents from everyone.
Under the leadership of Selena, everyone stepped forward to rub his head, with kind faces: "My child, you have finally grown up." This is the case including Elizabeth.
Luke had no choice but to accept it.
In most places in the United States, the age of eighteen is considered an important stage. Many people who do not go to college formally enter the society to work, and they are regarded as formal adults.
And 20 years old is the age that you can definitely get married (in some places, you can get married at 16 or 18 years old, but you need the consent of the guardian), which is considered mature.
Of course, there is also the 21-year-old who can buy alcohol at will without being rejected.
So there are jokes that alcohol is more dangerous than women, driver's licenses, guns.
This also means that women are not the most dangerous thing to Luke from today
After dinner, looking at the four women who were drinking blushingly, Luke felt that it would be better not to let go of this vigilance prematurely.
So he still asked Jin Nugget to be an escort, and he and Dustin hid far away to have a private chat, and they still talked about the two positions of commissioner and sheriff.
At present, it seems that the high-level trends are still confusing.
Mayor's fate is still unknown, making it impossible to decide on the commissioner of NYPD.
It is foreseeable that the current state of nypd will continue for several months.
However, the middle and low-level people who actually do things are not affected that much, and the law and order in New York will not suddenly collapse.
Luke just listened most of the time, and then casually recounted how Sheriff Nelson was cheated at Soderbergh's villa.
The two of them didn't have time to discuss this in detail before, but now they don't mind doing some case deduction in their spare time.
"It should be Brad." Dustin took a sip of his beer and said lightly, "If the problem hasn't been found yet, it's probably his fault."
Luke: "Is he so powerful?"
In the past, Dustin rarely talked about Brad.
Firstly, Brad and Luke are far away, and secondly, Brad himself has no intention of "receiving" Luke.
Dustin was really afraid that Brad would piss off Luke.
More than a year ago, he wouldn't have thought this way, but with the understanding of Luke's temper, he knew that he was a person who was hot on the outside and cold on the inside.
In other words, his so-called "heat" has always been just a disguise.
