Chapter 959: Temporary Assignment, and a Party Forgotten

Vanessa’s eyes bulged, and she couldn’t help but cover her mouth. “Who… hit you?”

Wade said without thinking, “A bunch of ruthless people. They surrounded me and beat me up. I couldn’t hide.”

Vanessa touched him, and he moaned again in pain.

Frowning, she immediately got up. “Get dressed; we’re going to the hospital.”

Wade startled. “No, I don’t have insurance.”

Vanessa said, “At the very least, we need to check if there are any internal injuries. It looks serious.”

Wade shook his head. “It’s just flesh wounds. There are no internal injuries.”

Vanessa was angry. “Look at yourself in the mirror. You look like a Dalmatian right now. You have so many big bruises, and you still think you’re fine?”

Hearing that, Wade also got up and looked at the big mirror at the foot of the bed. He immediately sighed. “Ah, my handsome back muscles and my sexy American curves!”

“Didn’t you say you’re from Canada?” Vanessa decisively exposed Luke’s lie as she put on her clothes. “Don’t just stand there, hurry up. I’ll go to the hospital with you.”

A moment later, Wade was dragged downstairs by Vanessa, and they took a cab to the hospital.

At that moment, the mercenary only had one thought in his head: It’s a good thing I’m rich, or this trip to the hospital will bankrupt me.

As Wade said earlier, he didn’t have medical insurance. Most of the time, he went to illegal clinics, which were cheap and convenient, but the medical treatment was subpar.

But he was a rich man now, and was also still waiting on a balance of 2.5 million.

Thinking that, he heaved a sigh of relief despite the pain in his back. At the very least, medical bills were nothing to him now.

Wade didn’t know that his back was completely bruised.

It was just that a certain someone had deliberately omitted the hard buffer layer of the V suit because he had been displeased with Wade’s fake intelligence, hence giving the special effect of “pain without holes.”

It would only hurt for a few days anyway.

…

Luke and Selina went to check in with Dustin at the police department, and really were pulled in.

“I just received a case. This is the related information. You can follow up on it.” He threw out a file that wasn’t too thick.

Luke flipped through the two sheets and raised his head with a strange expression. “Family dispute?”

Dustin pointed. “Temporary assignment.”

Luke immediately got it. “Pressure from the higher-ups?”

Dustin said, “Otherwise?”

Luke said, “You can call John or Joe.”

These two wily old foxes were definitely old hands at dealing with this sort of lousy matter.

Dustin raised three fingers. “Firstly, the higher-ups want me to dispatch ‘elite individuals.’ Your closure rate is on file, which makes you qualified. Secondly, you are the team with the most free time in the department in the next few days; otherwise, I’d have to temporarily transfer someone else back. Thirdly, compared with your ability to solve cases, I think your faces will be more useful this time.”

Selina blinked and couldn’t help but ask, “What do our faces have to do with it?”

Dustin sighed. “Generally speaking, we don’t rely on our faces when we work cases, but this couple is very notorious. They can’t even be bothered to talk to ugly people.”

Selina was stunned. “Huh?”

Dustin said, “Do you think John doesn’t know about this family? If you have the time, go ask them what happened last time. So, the case is yours.”

Luke and Selina both thought of a certain person’s receding hairline. They looked at each other as their imagination ran wild.

Looking at the two people exchanging a bewildered look, Dustin said encouragingly, “Good luck. Use your good looks to deal with these two.”

But he also felt that this sounded too ambiguous, so he added, “Think about your reputation. You can’t look like you’re half-assing things, okay?”

Luke gave the case file to Selina. “Who’s this family?”

Dustin said, “Every year, they donate millions of dollars to various departments in New York City; the exact donation amounts change every year. The most they gave NYPD was 2 million dollars, and the least was 500,000 dollars. There are no conditions on how the donations are used. Do you understand?”

Luke and Selina both smiled. “Got it. They’re rich.”

Dustin snorted. “The assistant commissioner’s boss shares the same family name. Do you understand?”

Luke was lost for words.

After learning about the situation, they quickly slipped out of the office.

What was so great about being rich? Hm, it was indeed great. Furthermore, Luke and Selina were now just as amazing.

But this family was even more remarkable.

They were caught again the moment they left the office.

Elizabeth was standing outside with a smile. “You’re so hard to find.”

Luke and Selina greeted her with smiles. Luke said, “You could have just given us a call. Do you need something?”

Elizabeth looked at him for a moment before she said, “Did you forget?”

Luke was lost. “Huh?”

Elizabeth reminded him helplessly, “Your housewarming party.”

Luke slapped his head. “Sorry, my bad.”

After renovating the new house, he had been busy taking care of his new “territory.” He had just cleaned up a bunch of elite monsters; how would he remember the party?

Elizabeth smiled without saying anything.

It was actually Dustin and Elsa who brought it up.

But it wasn’t appropriate for these impatient people to ask, so Elizabeth had to ask as Luke’s student.

Luke thought for a moment and said, “Tonight? Go back and tell Elsa. I’ll tell Dustin.”

Elizabeth nodded. “Okay. You’ve been so busy these days I haven’t seen you at all, and I can only have spies keep a lookout.”

Luke didn’t think too much of it. Instead, he joked, “You’re very meticulous in gathering intelligence. It’s great you got an inside position in the department. Let me see who your informants are.”

Elizabeth turned around and smiled in the direction of two people not far away. She nodded. “Your new colleagues are surprisingly easy to talk to.”

Luke couldn’t help but smile when he saw them. “That was reflex, right?”

Elizabeth chuckled. “Well, Detective Beckett isn’t bad.”

Luke nodded. “Beckett is quite good at solving cases. She’s beautiful, but she’s also very strong-willed. If she wasn’t, she wouldn’t be the boss of their group.”

Selina burst out laughing. “Are Javier and Ryan used to being bossed around by Beckett? Looking at you makes me feel like I’m seeing my own boss.”

Elizabeth smiled. “I don’t know about that.”

Luke said helplessly, “They’re here for a refresher, and will be returning to the 12th Precinct soon. Also, I heard that Beckett is going to be the head of the Major Crimes Division, and might be their boss. How can they not be a little more respectful?”
