Elsa and Luke are no longer partners, but they are still a team. The cases they can handle are more diverse, and their abilities will not be wasted.
The case of William Johnson is also basically cleared up.
With Luke's reminder, Elsa quickly found an important clue.
Using the blood left by the female shooter's injury for identification, it proved that the female shooter and the female college student who died of suspected overdose were not strangers, but sisters.
Finally, it was found out that the shooter was the older sister who was lost when she was young, and the female college student was the younger sister.
I don't know how the two met again, but the younger sister who was studying at USC ended up living in the apartment rented by her older sister Rebecca.
Until recently, William obtained the ownership of that building through certain channels, and wanted to drive away Rebecca who had signed a long-term lease.
But Rebecca just pays the rent and doesn't live in the apartment building.
For some unknown reason, William sent thugs to kill Rebecca's sister and create the illusion of an overdose.
Until Rebecca found out about her younger sister's death, of course she would not swallow her anger because of her terrifying skills. She went directly to William and shot the enemy who killed her sister with one shot.
In fact, after William's death, two other thugs in his gang also died one after another, also with a single shot to the head, in their own apartment.
However, one of the two died on the second day of William's death, while the other died yesterday morning.
No one connected these cases before, but now Luke reminded that Elsa collected information, analyzed it quickly, and finally made a clear analysis of this murder involving many people.
Luke and Elsa even guessed why the female gunman Rebecca appeared in the apartment building yesterday.
Perhaps the female shooter was returning to the apartment building to pay her respects to her dead sister—to rest her soul in peace with the life and blood of her enemy.
Dustin didn't say anything about the case, he just praised him and it was over.
After all, the Rebecca people disappeared without a trace again, William and his two subordinates died unjustly, and it would be good to close these cases by the way.
As for the arrest of Rebecca, that is to send her information to the criminal database and just add a wanted warrant.
It is impossible to send someone to catch this Rebecca.
Dustin also knew Luke's judgment on Rebecca's strength, so he didn't want his subordinates to die for someone like William, so he decisively issued a wanted warrant and dealt with it.
After a busy week, Luke and Selena found Elsa together.
Hearing his words, Elsa raised her head from the files on the table, with a look of "you're kidding me" on her face: "What are you talking about?"
Luke smiled: "Please leave, boss."
Elsa leaned her back on the back of the chair: "Don't you know how busy we are now?"
Luke nodded: "I know, but I want to visit my uncle. He is in Las Vegas, so I won't delay too long."
Elsa rubbed her forehead: "Must I go?"
Luke held out a finger: "This weekend, we were supposed to have two days off, so just asking for one day off is enough."
Elsa was speechless for a moment, and finally searched for a moment on the table: "Here, since you are going there, then go to the forensic center over there and get back the forensic results of these cases."
Luke: "So, is this a business trip?"
Elsa rolled her eyes: "Daydreaming! If you don't do it, I will hand it over to the boss and arrange someone to pick it up together."
Luke shrugged: "OK, do you want me to bring you a souvenir?"
Elsa stared at him: "Can there be any souvenirs there, chips?"
Luke laughed: "I can bring you some sunglasses. I heard that the sun is strong there."
Elsa: "... Get out! Remember, if you dare to delay for one more day, I will deduct two days off for you."
Luke raised his hand and saluted with two fingers: "Yes, sir!"
Tomorrow is Saturday, and Luke came over early this morning, walked around the police station, and decisively slipped.
Leaving Selena to handle some chores in the bureau, the two will fly to Las Vegas in the afternoon.
The distance of 430 kilometers can be reached by driving for more than three hours, but Luke is too lazy to drive.
The plane used to only take one hour, as long as the tickets were booked in advance, the time spent on the round trip was up to four hours.
After Luke returned home, he made preparations and finally added the last bit of basic attributes.
Power 40!
In an instant, unimaginable pain appeared, and the muscles all over his body seemed to be twisted and twisted, and seemed to be burning and melting.
With the towel in his mouth, Luke roared in a muffled voice, "Damn it, I knew it wasn't that simple! Ahhh!"
When the three basic attributes reach 20, there will be a sharp increase, and the increase coefficient becomes 2, and the actual effect is twice that of before 20 points.
What about the basic attributes reaching 40 points? Considering that the primary self-healing ability requires 40 points of strength, Luke can guess one or two.
He screamed there for almost an hour before finally passing the most painful period.
The physical discomfort was still strong, but it didn't make him scream uncontrollably, but it still made him grin his teeth in pain from time to time.
He can't lie still.
In the hour just now, Luke knew that his body fat percentage had dropped again, but he was not happy at all.
Because the degree of body fat loss can be seen with the naked eye, the smooth skin before is a bit dry, obviously the fat in it is being consumed crazily.
Luke gritted his teeth, enduring the muscle pain and soreness and twisting all over his body, and started eating at the table where the food had been prepared long ago.
In addition, the nutrient solution he specially prepared by himself also used the method of infusion to quickly enter the blood of the body to moisturize the body that was almost drained.
Then, he felt uncomfortable again.
The strengthening process is not over yet, and even the strongest first wave of effects is still continuing. He took a breath before, because the energy that can be extracted in the body is running out, and the system father automatically slows down the strengthening process.
But now that a large amount of nutrients entered the body, the strengthening process immediately became active again, but the pain was more than half weaker than the initial pain.
Luke could only grit his teeth there, eating and drinking frantically, turning the pain into appetite.
Just eating and drinking like this, the nutrient solution was continuously fed. After five hours, the first stage of the strengthening process finally passed.
Luke almost didn't cry.
It's so frightening! This process was like being tortured, and he couldn't even faint.
What's even more frightening is that he still has to try his best to stay awake, eating and infusing crazily, to maintain the substances and energy needed for strengthening.
During this period, Luke also went to the toilet five or six times.
When the strength reached 20 before, the situation of going to the toilet was not obvious, only once or twice.
But this time it's not just because he ate too much, it's more likely that his body has been strengthened to a new level, and the waste in his body has also been discharged.
