Chapter 251 I Can’t Take It Anymore

Selina felt very uneasy when she noticed Luke’s eyes.

It wasn’t a lascivious expression, which wouldn’t have been scary. Instead, it seemed like he was planning something dangerous.

Selina really knew Luke better and better now. She could tell from his eyes that he was up to something

Returning to the police department, they greeted Elsa first before reporting to Dustin.

Dustin frowned. “That Stu… is so good? Even you couldn’t catch him?” He never thought that anyone would be able to escape from Luke once the latter found them.

Considering Luke’s performance before, how strong must this Stu be?

Luke shook his head. “He’s too vigilant. He ran off immediately when his plan failed. We kept an eye on his girlfriend, but he never returned.”

Dustin nodded his head.

It was impossible to ask Luke and Selina to wait in town for Stu indefinitely, since they were among the most capable detectives under Dustin’s command and were indispensable.

Luke thought for a moment before deciding to tell Dustin about Stu’s weird ability. He said, “Boss, I didn’t tell the local police department any of that.”

Surprised, Dustin pondered for a moment, then patted Luke’s shoulder. “I’ll talk to Deputy Director Condra. Your efforts won’t be ignored. Do you need a rest? You can come to work tomorrow.”

Luke shook his head. “No need. It’s still early. I’ll see if Elsa needs us on anything. We’ll start working in the afternoon.”

Dustin nodded in satisfaction. “Alright, you can go now.”

They left the office and went to Elsa.

Skipping the formalities, Elsa simply pointed at a case file on the table. “Martin and Roger have been working on this case. It’s dangerous. As usual, you can work on it for a few days and give up if you don’t make any progress.”

Luke nodded. “Can we go now?”

After a brief hesitation, Elsa asked, “About your previous case, did you…”

Luke shrugged. “It depends. If the deputy director is reasonable, he’ll feel that he owes us a favor.”

Elsa frowned. “What happened?”

Luke said, “The killer is vigilant and unusual. He disappeared and never returned after his failure. We didn’t catch him.”

Pondering for a moment, Elsa asked, “What did Dustin say?”

“He said it was fine and he would report to the deputy director,” said Luke.

Elsa was relieved, because Dustin could’ve only told Luke that when he thought that Luke and Selina had done a good job on the case.

“Okay, you’re free for the rest of the day. You can start the investigation tomorrow,” said Elsa.

Luke chuckled and said, “Thanks, boss.”

Selina also bade Elsa farewell before leaving with Luke.

Elsa, on the other hand, wondered if she could apply for another group of detectives to work under her if the deputy director owed her a favor.

That way, her team would be stronger than before.

She wouldn’t have accepted the case in Woodsburg if it didn’t promise any returns.

ns.

If the case was solved, both she and Luke would be able to leave a good impression on Condra, which was why Elsa had taken the case.

After they left the police department, Luke drove home.

Selina said, “Did you mean it when you said that we would start the investigation this afternoon?”

Luke said, “Studying the case file and making preparations at home is part of the investigation.”

Selina argued, “But haven’t I always been the only one to study the case files?”

Luke said, “Excuse me, but I have to tell you a piece of good news.”

Selina asked, “What?’

Luke said, “Starting from today, we’re going to up our training. We’ll be working on more aspects like shooting, boxing, driving, extreme parkour, swimming, running and more.”

Selina: “…Are you crazy?”

Luke: “This is just to prevent you from putting on weight since you’ve been eating too much every day.”

Selina: “…Will you still make food for me every day?”

Luke: “Of course!”

Selina: “Deal!”

Anything was negotiable as long as there was delicious food.

Besides, nobody else would be able to get Luke, probably the strongest man in the country, to help with their training.

What Selina didn’t know was that Luke was only the strongest ordinary person, and that there were many extraordinary people out there.

Luke quickly made lunch after they returned home, and they ate twenty minutes later.

Selina then washed the dishes and cleaned up the kitchen as usual. Luke was never interested in doing that sort of thing.

Then, Selina studied the case file as she digested her food. They were supposed to start training in an hour.

Luke, on the other hand, went off to create and modify equipment in his garage workshop for himself and Selina, given how dangerous this world was.

At five in the afternoon, Luke dragged Selina out of the training room; she was in no better shape than a dead dog.

The girl declared, “No, let me go! I can’t take it anymore!”

Luke chuckled. “No, we have to practice shooting today.”

Selina said, “But I think I’ve reached my limit. It’s hard for me to improve.”

“As you say yourself, it’s hard, but it’s not impossible. So, stop resisting and start firing guns with me.” Luke threw her into the bathroom and went to take a shower himself.

He was still vigorous, thanks to the stat points that he added to Strength.

Even on just two hours of sleep a day, he was still as energetic as ever. He was never exhausted or injured in training, because he always instantly recovered with Elementary Self-Healing

However, in order to create powerful equipment, he needed money first.

Thinking that, he called Bobby. “Hey, this is Luke. How’s the negotiation coming along? Any progress?”

After a brief silence, Bobby said, “…It’s the third time… they’ve turned down my request for a meeting… So…”

Luke wasn’t surprised. “So, you’re saying that you didn’t make any progress?”

Bobby said truthfully, “I’m sorry, but that’s right.”
