Chapter 216 Old Iron Snatching Food, New Case (1 Update)
It's not that people are indifferent, it's that detectives have limited time and energy.
In American TV dramas, many police detectives don't get to the bottom of the case. The look of not giving up.
But in reality, detectives are not qualified to do that.
Chasing one case will delay the detection of more cases, and sooner or later your boss will let you get out.
Even if you are very concerned about a certain case, you can only find time to investigate without affecting your normal work.
This is also the difference between police detectives and private detectives, the former needs to maintain basic social order, and the latter will always investigate a certain case.
After that, it was Selena's turn to care about his itinerary in Paris and also saw all the photos of Elena and him.
It made her jealous.
Her face was full of loss: "This kind of fun trip, it's none of my business?" I also want to go shopping in Paris and go to Marseille to go out to sea and sunbathe. ”
Luke: "Then I'll go to Las Vegas for a few days in a while, will you go with me?" ”
Selena was only pleasantly surprised, but then shook her head: "It is estimated that it is difficult, I have more work now, and it is not good to take leave." ”
Luke shrugged: "It's okay, then let's go a while, you've been working hard lately." I told you no, Elsa might be going to be promoted. ”
Selena thought for a moment and nodded: "I've heard a little bit of this rumor, what does that have to do with me?" ”
Luke: "She's really promoted, I'll apply to transfer you over and continue to be my partner." ”
Selena was surprised: "But didn't you say that it will take us a few months to get acquainted with this place and build our own network?" ”
Luke hehe: "Elsa and I don't have a bad relationship, I can call on most of Elsa's intelligence resources, as long as I give her more credit." The situation in Houston is that we have been isolated in the Serious Crime Team, and now from the head Dustin to Elsa, the old qualification, are all on our side, and it is no problem to be partners again! ”
Selena also became excited: "Really? ”
Luke: "Really. I tried Elsa and she wasn't against the idea, provided she became a sheriff and went from partner to my boss. ”
Selena: "How long will that take?" It won't be half a year, right? Rumors of her promotion only say that it may have been in recent months. ”
Luke: "Within two months at most, and it's possible to get results within a month." ”
Selena: "Oh yes, that's great. ”
Luke: "Happy, aren't you?" Get up and wash the dishes. ”
Selena: "Oops, my stomach is so swollen, I need to rest again." ”
Luke ignored her clumsy acting skills and straightened up: "Anyway, it's your task, I'll go take a shower first." ”
As a result, he came out of the shower, and Selena had already packed up her things and went to the kitchen.
Luke shook his head with a smile and checked back at his notebook.
Nothing happened overnight.
The next day, Luke and Selena each drove to work.
Selena was refreshed, this was after eating a barbecue dinner last night, and this morning she ate Luke's Alley for breakfast, and even the cupcake snacks that had been cut off from the supply were repacked in her bag.
Foodie Na is naturally in a good mood.
When I arrived at the police station, I saw Elsa at her desk, and her spirit was obviously restored.
When she saw Luke coming, she said hello.
Luke smiled and put the paper bag in front of her: "Homemade cupcakes, nothing can be used as a snack." ”
Elsa was a little surprised, although she didn't care much about what she ate, but she couldn't help but take out one and eat it.
Within minutes, she regretted it.
Although Americans are more privacy-conscious and keep their distance, who is Elsa?
She is one of the oldest people in the Serious Crime Unit, and there are not one or two detectives with whom she has a strong relationship.
In the serious crime team, five of them were brought out by her from the newcomers, and they can be counted as half of her students.
After working together for a few years, there are four or five other people who have a good relationship.
In other words, a small half of the people in the serious crime team have a good relationship with her.
Friends are iron, and many times it is unreliable.
Elsa doesn't take cupcakes seriously, but the others don't.
Dustin happened to come out of the toilet at this time, walked through here, saw the cake in the open paper bag, looked at a few in it, and took one casually: "Well, I haven't eaten in the morning, thank you Elsa." ”
Elsa didn't pay much attention to it, she just thought that the cake tasted really good, no worse than the one she bought at the pastry shop.
Another Chinese veteran police detective, Billy Wang, came over and said, "Oh, I didn't eat either, thank you, Elsa." With a hand, he took another one.
Melinda, another young man, about twenty-seven or eight, also leaned over: "Oh, Elsa, you remember that I like to eat cupcakes, thank you." "I also took one with the same speed and flashed.
This was not the end of the story, a little farther away, a few early detectives also gathered up.
The same words and deeds are similar, and the last two cupcakes in the paper bag are gone.
The hands are fast, the hands are slow, and the few detectives who didn't catch the cake can only disperse.
But one of the shameless ones shouted, "Elsa, bring more next time." You finally brought this with a cake, and I brought a dozen donuts last time. ”
Elsa's face was full of confusion: Damn, I ate one myself! These bastards!
The key is that this cake is really good, and the pastry shop sells at least three to five dollars a knife, is it comparable to the kind of big road goods doughnuts?
It's a loss! That's all she has in her mind.
Knowing that Luke's homemade cake was at this level, she would never put it out so aggressively and keep it all for herself, which was better than cheap bastards.
These police detectives who dare to reach out have an unusual relationship with her, and eating more and less cake will not affect the relationship between the two parties at all, which is the most loss.
Then she looked at Luke: "Can't you wait for them to be there and quietly stuff it for me?" ”
Luke smiled and said nothing, anyway, he gave it to Elsa, and she couldn't keep the cake herself, so she didn't blame him.
Seeing her finish eating the cake, Luke asked, "What's the case this time?" ”
Elsa threw the file out, and he took it in his hand and flipped it up.
"This case is a bit tricky." Elsa said: "The man who died was a guy named William Johnson, who was shot in the head in a car. He is in the real estate business, and his foundation is very unclean, and in our information, he is related to many cases of threats and injuries. There are also vague rumors that he is involved in a number of murders, which have happened to the residents and tenants of some old buildings. Intelligence indicates that the buildings and land belong to William Johnson. ”
Luke looked at the information on the file and the various notes that Elsa added on the side, and said, "So, this is the leader of the gang, and it is only a matter of time before someone kills him?" ”
