Luke immediately began to run, because he smelled that Selev had left via the back entrance.
After a brief daze, Elsa hurried to follow him.
Sally was left confused. “Where are you going, Elsa?”
Elsa had no time to answer her. She sped up and tried to catch up with Luke.
Luke ran even faster. He burst out of the back gate several seconds later and turned left.
By the time Elsa ran out of the back gate and looked to her right, Luke had already turned another corner.
To the right of the back entrance was the main road, while there were several other villas to the left. It was a complicated environment.
Naturally, it was thanks to Sharp Nose that Luke was able to track Selev.
Right now, Luke had 24 Strength and 20 Dexterity. He was an extremely fast runner.
In less than one minute, he saw Selev running wildly up ahead.
Amused, Luke shouted, “LAPD! Selev, don’t move!”
But Selev only ran faster.
Luke, however, smiled and shouted again, “Selev, stop and come back with me for the investigation!”
Many people would argue that it was pointless to say such things, but it actually wasn’t.
Due process was of paramount importance for American police.
Once an officer revealed his identity and ordered a man to freeze, the officer had the right to arrest the man if the latter didn’t comply.
It was also easy to guess what was up here – why would the man run if he didn’t feel guilty?
Also, shouting enabled officers to identify themselves to passersby, in case any of them thought that the officers were bandits and tackled them.
Luke shouted twice and completed the due process. He immediately sped up.
If Luke hadn’t slowed down, Seley would’ve already been caught. However, since Selev kept running after hearing the warning, Luke was now free to arrest him.
A moment later, he caught up to Selev and lunged, tackling him to the ground.
Given how much more dexterous he was compared with Selev, Luke jumped up and aimed his Glock at Selev. “LAPD, Selev, don’t move!”
Selev didn’t dare move any longer now that he was at gunpoint.
He actually was carrying a gun.
He had run despite the warning. If he moved again now, Luke could easily shoot him, and wouldn’t get into trouble for it as long as he claimed that Seley had drawn his gun.
More importantly, Selev knew for a fact that he had done something stupid.
Yesterday, the director of the police department had stated that they knew who the culprit was, but that his name was being withheld while the investigation was still ongoing. Selev had grown anxious after he read the news.
When Luke and Elsa arrived, he had actually been in the room, hiding behind the door.
He immediately started running when he heard that the officers were here for him.
Luke ordered Selev to lie down slowly on the ground and put both his hands behind his head.
Selev had no choice but to do as he was told.

At that moment, Elsa finally arrived, breathing hard. She took out her gun and aimed it at Selev as well.
Selev was a security guard who was authorized to carry a gun. Else didn’t dare be careless.
She then said, “Selev, you’re under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney…”
Well, the famous Miranda warning was also part of the process.
As she spoke, Elsa gestured at Luke.
Luke nodded and put his gun back. He then pressed Selev down and handcuffed him.
Dragging the guy up, Elsa said with a mysterious smile, “Selev, behave if you want to live.”
Selev was silent.
Elsa didn’t continue. This wasn’t the place for an interrogation anyway.
They took Seley back to the villa. Sally was rather surprised. “Ah, Elsa, why did you arrest Selev?”
Elsa didn’t give her a straight answer. She simply said, “Sally, you need to come with us, too. We need your help in our investigation on Selev.”
Dazed, Sally nodded her head.
This time, Sally took the passenger seat of the car, and Luke and Selev sat in the backseat.
Selev seemed panicked. His feet shook nonstop.
Luke observed him and shook his head. The man had nobody but himself to blame.
If his guess was correct, Selev must be the reason why Sergei’s fat son had shown up at Katie’s villa.
But Sergei’s fat son had died, and Katie had been killed by Sergei, who blamed her for it.
One might say that Selev, an unreliable security guard, was the cause of everything.
After returning to the police department, Elsa talked to Selev in person and soon intimidated him into disclosing how Sergei’s fat son had died without asking for a lawyer.
As it turned out, Sergei’s son was the polar opposite of his father. He was shy and eccentric. Naturally, he had few friends growing up.
Sergei was so disappointed in him that he just gave his son some money each month and didn’t ask him to do anything.
The son could’ve lived his life in peace. Sergei had already set up a trust for his hopeless son so that the latter would never have to worry about money.
However, his son suddenly fell in love with Katie Winterster, who was sexy and enticing. That was the beginning of the tragedy.
The son tried his best to approach Katie, but didn’t have many ways to do so. He was too heavy for any kind of pursuit.
In his helplessness, he finally remembered his father, or rather, his father’s influence.
After pulling some strings, he acquired Seley’s contact and demanded to visit Katie’s house.
Selev had refused at first, but the son had been very determined, and threatened Selev with his father.
Selev had worked for Sergei for a while before, so he knew how vicious Sergei could be.
Besides, Sergei’s son wasn’t asking for much. He only wanted to take photos of Katie’s house at night, and get a closer look at the items that Katie used.
That was right, he didn’t ask to meet Katie. He only wanted to sit in the chair where Katie sat, and take a photo of it as a souvenir.
Selev eventually acceded to his request, but he certainly wasn’t stupid.
He only promised that he would open the back entrance. He also warned Sergei’s son that, while he didn’t care what the latter was going to do, he would fulfill his duty as a security guard and throw him out as long as Katie noticed anything unusual.
