Chapter 1369: Moving Out, Exploration, and Idiot

Chapter 1368: Moving Out, Exploration, and Idiot

When they reached the beach, they saw a lone figure standing on the road outside the sewer.

Looking at the image projected on her lenses, Selina didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Is she waiting for a cab?”

Luke said helplessly, “Probably.”

On the road next to the beach, Skye stood alone and looked around, and would perk up when a cab passed by.

Whenever she saw that it wasn’t empty, her face would fall.

Finally, an empty car stopped next to her.

After saying a few words, the empty car drove off again.

Selina said, “She’s really moving out. She has so many things?”

Looking at the seven to eight bags behind her, big and small, Luke was lost for words.

He simply called Charlie and had him and Raqael pick her up.

The cabs couldn’t accommodate all this luggage, so of course they would refuse to take her.

As for why Skye had so many things, Luke didn’t care.

It wasn’t unusual for a kid to have loads of toys when moving house, let alone a hacker like Skye. Those bags probably contained her equipment.

They glided down from the sky and entered the sewer channel.

A few minutes later, Gold Nugget, who had run the whole way, also scampered inside.

Luke and Selina had flown the distance directly from home. The dog had run, so it was a little late.

Following the instructions from the Hellhound suit, it quickly approached Luke and Selina.

It wasn’t as fast as Luke and Selina.

But in the sewers, it was far faster than humans, because it had four legs.

During the day, Luke had detected the smell of human activity, and had followed it to Skye; he actually hadn’t explored the sewers at all.

Now that they were wearing suits, there was nothing to worry about, and they moved even quicker.

However, sewers were a big problem compared with New York’s surface infrastructure.

If a person wanted to move around on the surface, they could only use the roads.

Luke’s control over New York was naturally focused on monitoring the roads.

Nothing could escape the A.I. program’s surveillance with every drone monitoring a range of several kilometers.

But the sewers were different.

Even if drones were sent in, they couldn’t monitor a range of several kilometers.

Whether due to a poor signal or the constraints of the terrain, the drones were much less efficient.

Dozens of drones in the sewers weren’t as efficient as one on the ground.

He could install fixed surveillance cameras in some important sections of the sewers, but not too many.

It would take him decades to install surveillance cameras in a big city with millions of people, and he would still have to replace damaged ones regularly.

He wasn’t crazy. It was impossible for him to spend his entire life installing surveillance cameras in the sewers.

Thus, the main thing was to become familiar with New York’s sewers; he could forget about controlling them.

If the sewers were so easily controlled, how could he use them as retreat routes?

Many people had also considered the fact that Batman was using the sewers to hide his tracks, but they had no good solution for this problem.

Even if it wasn’t a trap, tracking a target in the sewers was very difficult, including for Luke himself.

Thus, Luke and Selina weren’t in a hurry to scout the sewers.

It wasn’t until Gold Nugget arrived that they split up.

After exploring for half an hour, Selina couldn’t help but complain, “I would’ve already gotten lost without the suit’s coordinates. Damn it, why are the sewers so complicated?”

Luke was slightly better off than she was, and he comforted her. “Think about it, that may be the very reason why they brought the bodies here.”

Selina asked, “You don’t have any leads?”

Luke said, “No. There’s been some rain in New York, and whatever clues there are have been washed away. However, from this, we can deduce that those people didn’t come here when the sun was out recently.”

Selina: “…So you’re saying that we chose the wrong time to take down those gangs?”

Luke said, “It’s only by chance that we found out about this body dump case. Be content.”

Actually, Selina didn’t really care about wasting time exploring. It was just that it wasn’t her habit to work without making a sound.

They would usually chat when they were out beating up people.

But now, they didn’t even know where the enemy was.

After three hours, two people and one dog had only explored less than a kilometer, and had almost completed the search of the protruding southwest corner of Brooklyn.

Of course, while this corner was less than a kilometer long, it spread across more than six kilometers, which wasn’t small at all.

Looking at the time, Luke said, “Let’s go. Surveillance cameras have been set up around this area. We might be able to find something. We’ll work on the rest later.”

Selina nodded and quickly left with Gold Nugget.

Luke and Selina activated the automatic cleanup, removed the filthy smell on the armor, and glided away.

Gold Nugget looked resentfully at the two guys who had fled. Resigned to being invisible, it ran off.

Actually, Luke had prepared a flight function for the Hellhound armor, but Selina said that all it did was eat, sleep and play every day.

Unless necessary, it could only run at night.

Gold Nugget’s belly was full of curses, but it stifled them in the end.

Selina was right. It liked to go online, watch TV, and scold people, but Dollar wasn’t interested in that.

Dollar’s favorite thing to do was run and play with its young master, Selina.

Control of its body had mostly been given over to Gold Nugget, but its nature couldn’t be erased.

Gold Nugget could only resign itself to this circumstance.

Now, it ceded control to Dollar, and just told it where Selina was so that it would chase her.

Ever since Gold Nugget formed a symbiotic relationship with Dollar, the dog had been exploding with energy. It immediately broke into a run.

For Gold Nugget, it was like an automatic battle cruiser!

The alien dog head could only comfort itself this way.

On their way home, Luke texted Charlie and asked if he had picked up Skye.

When they came out, Skye had no longer been there. Charlie had probably picked her up.

After a while, there was a reply. “Boss, Charlie was beaten up by your little beauty and is being examined at the community clinic. She’s hot. Will she fight the lady boss?”

Luke was stunned. “Who are you? Why was Charlie beaten up?”

A moment later, he received a text message. “This is Raqael, boss. Charlie copied some of those videos about picking up girls. He only said a few words, before the girl punched him in the eye and kicked him in the dick. He was flattened instantly, haha.”

Luke was lost for words. He really wanted to ask Charlie, “Are you an idiot?”

The boss told you to pick up a person, and you still tried to hit on her for fun?

Trying to hit on a girl in the middle of the night – it would be strange if she didn’t get the wrong idea.
