Chapter 363: A Couple on Holiday and Bratty Kids

Chapter 363 A Couple on Holiday and Bratty Kids

Luke had seen too many similar setups in movies and TV shows before. When he noticed Ellen, he had adjusted the surveillance range beforehand.

The camera had an infrared function to monitor the lake 24/7 in case students snuck out for a swim and got into trouble.

Of course, it was Luke who suggested setting up the camera, and who provided the device.

He didn’t charge the school a fee for it, and would just take back the surveillance equipment once this assignment was over and both he and the students returned to Los Angeles.

It wouldn’t be easy to convict Ellen with the camera footage, but if the Elsworth family planned to set Luke up later, the footage would be great evidence to prove his innocence.

After the unannounced guest was driven away, Luke’s agenda was clear in the afternoon.

On the third day, the teachers took the kids to a nearby mountain to teach them the basics of surviving in the wild. They also had to cook for themselves.

Of course, they had to bring their own ingredients, since the teachers didn’t dare let them eat the things in the wild.

Luke followed them to the mountain as well. He had much more stamina than the kids and teachers did, so he simply wandered around and appreciated the scenery while he practiced the jungle fighting abilities that he barely used.

He ran and jumped around easily on the mountain, even swinging from the trees every now and then.

He wasn’t worried about anyone seeing him as he was only using the strength of an ordinary person; at most, people would only think that he was having a bit of childish fun.

When he leapt onto a road, he smiled.

It was the road that led to Stephen’s campsite. He heard Juliet’s voice over the walkie-talkie: “Alright, all the kids should be back at camp now. Please do a headcount.”

A moment later, all the teachers reported numbers like they were shepherds counting sheep.

The numbers were correct, which indicated that no kids were missing.

Juliet said, “Alright, dismissed. Let them get some rest.”

Luke reported, “Juliet, I won’t be back at noon. I’m going to have a picnic on the mountain.”

Juliet simply replied to say that she got it, before she cut off communication.

Luke was only reporting to her so that he wouldn’t be considered missing.

The kids would have a break at noon, and then do a round-up of their camp experience in the afternoon at the campsite, so they wouldn’t be in any sort of danger.

Thus, Luke could blatantly skive off work.

He was quite bored after two days in the camp. He wondered if he should visit Annie.

That girl was quite nice. She was chirpy and wasn’t shy at all, and most importantly, she was pretty.

Lily, for example, was also interested in Luke, but Luke had intentionally avoided her, as Lily was only a five on a scale of one to ten.

Luke was relaxed as he jogged down the road.

Though he called it a jog, he was actually faster than a car as he leapt through the woods at forty kilometers an hour, as if he was flying

A car would have to slow down on the winding road, but when Luke felt like it, he could jump across pits and ravines easily.

His extreme parkour and jungle fighting abilities was a match made in heaven which he couldn’t be any more pleased about. In the city, he was always restrained by people and all kinds of surveillance, but in the remote wilderness, he could finally run without inhibition at all.

Just like that, Luke ran for twenty minutes and reached Annie’s campsite.

He looked at the sign at the entrance and laughed, as Stephen had finally fixed it.

The brand new sign sported a name in blue: Eden Lake Campsite.

Suddenly, he heard the sounds of an engine behind him.

Luke looked back and moved away from the road.

A blue and black Cherokee stopped when it passed by him, and a handsome man in the driver’s seat asked with a smile, “Is there a lake around here?”

Luke stepped to one side and pointed at the campsite’s new sign.

The man was amused when he saw it. “Eden Lake? That’s a beautiful name. Thank you very much. Have a pleasant afternoon.”

Luke nodded with a smile. “You too.”

In the passenger seat, a girl with long blond hair smiled at him as well in a gentle and friendly manner.

They drove on without entering the campsite. Luke shook his head with a smile.

They were definitely a couple who were looking for a private spot. They had probably bypassed the campsite to look for a spot on the other side of the lake for themselves.

Luke turned around and entered the campsite. He soon arrived at the log cabins.

He shouted a greeting, and Annie immediately responded in delight, “Ah,

Luke?”

She popped her head out of the kitchen window. “It’s really you! Why are you here? Don’t you need to teach those kids?”

Luke waved his hand. “The kids are having their afternoon break. It’s going to be noisy later, so I’ve decided to hide out here.”

Annie smiled. Her crescent eyes suggested that she was quite happy. “Just a minute, let me finish washing the dishes. Right, do you want anything to drink?”

Luke patted his backpack and said, “I brought beer and wine. Would you like to join me?”

Annie giggled. “What about food? Or have you had lunch already?”

Luke shrugged. “Not yet. I’m counting on the charity of the kindhearted chef Annie.”

Annie laughed. “Okay. Then give me ten minutes.”

Ten minutes later, Luke got up from where he was sitting on the porch and took a tray from Annie. They then walked to the lake together.

He asked, “Where’s Stephen?”

Bouncing ahead of him, Annie replied casually, “He’s out checking the electric line. It seems it was messed up by some brats in the town down the mountain.”

Luke asked, “Which town? The one we passed through?”

Annie shook her head. “No, it’s a town in the northeast. There aren’t any direct roads from there to here. Those kids took the trails.”

Luke hummed a response and asked, “Do they often cause trouble?”

Annie sighed. “Stephen mentioned a thing or two. It doesn’t happen very often, but they’ve destroyed a water pipe, a fence and the electric line…”

Luke frowned. “Did Stephen not talk to their parents?”

Annie shook her head. “I’ve never talked to them, but according to Stephen, their parents… aren’t exactly friendly.”

Luke didn’t continue asking.
