Chapter 134 A Slice of the Cake

Bell got out and went over to the A8. Her eyes glowed as she remarked, “This car has definitely been modified…”

Luke asked, “Can you open the car door?”

Bell chuckled. “Not a problem.” She fetched a tool she had made herself and opened the A8’s door in two minutes.

Luke thanked her and sat in the driver’s seat, making sure that the prize was under his control.

Leaving the door open, he took a deep breath and remarked, “Ah, the scent of money.”

Bell clicked her tongue and said, “Of course; this isn’t a cheap car.”

Luke said, “It certainly isn’t. It’s worth at least ten million.”

Bell was suspicious. “Really? I think that’s way too much.”

Marta soon arrived.

She asked Luke and Elsa for the robbers’ whereabouts as soon as she saw them.

Elsa asked curiously, “I told you they turned back. You didn’t encounter them?”

Marta was rather embarrassed.

They did encounter the robbers, but the women had gotten away again later. So, they could only come here to look for more clues.

Berit, however, jumped out and scolded, “Elsa, it’s all your fault. You let Sergei go, and the bank robbers have fled, too. Didn’t you say that you would take full responsibility?”

Elsa glanced at the idiot and turned back to Marta, whom she found far more agreeable. “Is that what you think, too, Officer Marta?”

Marta wasn’t stupid, and she wasn’t friends with Berit, either. She quickly shook her head and said, “No, no, no. Like I said, Berit only represents himself, not the Major Crimes Division. Can we talk over there?”

Infuriated, Berit was about to open his mouth again.

Marta, however, grew impatient. “Sergeant Berit, if you stand in my way again, I’m going to write a report expounding on your ‘remarkable contribution’ to this bank robbery case. How does that sound?”

Berit choked and didn’t say anything.

The bank robberies had too much of an impact. The robbers had looted more than three million in this last job.

Including their takings from the first two jobs, the robbers had grabbed more than eleven million in total. The banks were frantically pressuring the police to solve the case.

The banks certainly didn’t want to be robbed every other day.

Three robberies in one week – even the biggest bank couldn’t tolerate this frequency.

If Marta reported that Berit had gotten in the way of the investigation, the agitated leadership of NYPD would definitely vent their fury on him.

Elsa and Marta talked in private for a while, before they finally summoned Berit. Then, the three of them began to make calls.

After almost an hour, everything was finally done.

Elsa returned, exhausted but excited. “Luke, hand the car over to Officer Marta.”

Luke chuckled and left the driver’s seat. He nodded at Marta.

Marta looked at him with complicated feelings.

It wasn’t because she was angry with him, but because her men had reported the gunfight to her in the last hour.

This smiling young officer who looked like a high school student had killed and injured 34 members of Sergei’s gang on his own. He even apprehended Sergei, and had thrown him into the trunk of the cab.

It was safe to say that he had single-handedly eliminated Sergei’s gang.

Was he really an ordinary detective? He was more like Rambo!

Thankfully, Luke and Elsa had tacitly agreed that the credit for retrieving the loot would go to Elsa, or Marta would be even more alarmed.

After the handover, Luke and Elsa returned to their apartment in Bell’s cab.

NYPD would finish up the investigation today, and the two of them wouldn’t be needed until tomorrow, so they didn’t have to go into the department and annoy everybody there for now.

Luke took a shower in his apartment and read the system notifications in bed.

Mission: Eliminate Sergei’s gang and arrest Sergei.

Total experience: 1,500. Credit: 1,500.

Contribution rate: 100%. EXP +1,500. Credit +1,500.

Luke had completed the mission on his own. Elsa hadn’t helped at all.

There was no need to mention the unlucky Watson. Even the system didn’t deem him a contributor.

Mission: Seize the loot from the bank robberies.

Total experience: 500. Credit: 500.

Contribution rate: 80%. EXP +400. Credit +400.

Luke snorted. He hadn’t earned much experience from this second case; he might perhaps have earned more if he had captured the four robbers.

What really drew Luke’s attention was something else.

You have defeated Vanessa. You may now learn all her abilities.

Vanessa’s abilities: Basic Shooting, Basic Car Repairs, Basic Car Modification… Elementary Driving

Elementary Driving: (prerequisite: 20 Dexterity and 1,000 Credit points)

Luke wasn’t very happy, because the ability was grayed out.

Although he had won the bet with Vanessa, it clearly wasn’t enough for him to learn her abilities yet.

Luke frowned and thought for a moment, before he left the apartment on his bike.

He had been busy for half a day, and had eaten the fast food which he had packed in the morning for lunch.

Since he was in a bad mood, he decided to look for something nice to eat.

He didn’t ask Elsa if she wanted to join him because she was busy talking to Dustin about how to split the cake.

There was no room for food in Elsa’s head at the moment. Luke would just pack some for her later.

Luke wandered the streets of New York on his bike.

Eventually, he chose a Chinese restaurant.

It was a one-star Michelin restaurant that served Cantonese food.

Luke ordered almost every dish on the menu and enjoyed them slowly.

Speaking of Michelin restaurants, many people would think that they were expensive

But the number of stars mattered.

Three-star Michelin restaurants would burn a hole in your pocket – eating at one could easily cost more than five hundred bucks a person.

But what Luke picked was a one-star Michelin restaurant, which was no more expensive than some regular restaurants out there.

Luke only spent 87 dollars on the food that he had ordered.

Luke didn’t touch most of it. He decided to pack them up for Elsa, Bell, and her boyfriend for supper.

So, Luke essentially only paid forty dollars for what he ate. It wasn’t much at all.

Luke hung the takeaway bags on his bike and rode unhurriedly back to his apartment.

Suddenly, his Sharp Nose picked up a familiar scent.

Luke stopped the bike and carefully discerned the smell again. He immediately smiled in delight.
