Chapter 701: Is Miss Jenny Angry

Police families were quite popular in the police department, even if it was just one in a small town.

The less of a heritage that a person had, the more they valued it.

In some American films, boasting about forefathers included things like “the earliest passengers on the Mayflower.”

Those who didnt know better would think that they were members of aristocratic families who had been sent to establish themselves in the Americas.

But Americans liked to talk about this sort of history.

After that, Harrison dragged Luke away.

Naturally, he had to consult Luke as the person who provided him the list in order to verify things.

The two of them observed the thirty or so atypical students again.

It didnt matter who Harrison had an eye on; Luke pointed out all the people on the list.

Half an hour later, Harrison left in a daze, forgetting to say thank you.

He was already thinking about how to get these oddballs onto his team as interns and to develop their biggest potential.

Luke also left.

He had already given the list to Remick, and didnt need to come to the police academy often.

He could just take a look in passing whenever he picked Claire up.

Making the decision to slack off, he returned to the police department.

He had just entered the Major Crimes Division, when Billy pulled him to Elsas office.

After they knocked, Elizabeth opened the door and let them in.

Except for Elsas rookie partner, Simmons, everybody in her team was there.

Luke looked at Elsa.

“Alright, what happened”

Elsa sighed.

“Elizabeth and Billy dug up a big lead in the state polices archive room.

I told them to wait for you.”

Luke raised an eyebrow and took the case file from her.

After flipping through it for a moment, he raised his head.

“Thirty missing cases All of them girls and children”

Elsa nodded solemnly.

“Yes.

Look at where they went missing.”

Luke flipped to a map and saw the red dots on it, which had the dates of the crimes.

“Twenty-seven cases happened in an area fifty kilometers around Elsworth city.

You havent checked the Elsworth polices files yet, have you” he asked.

Elizabeth shook her head silently.

Luke looked at Elsa.

“Do we continue investigating”

Staring at Elizabeth and Billy, Elsa said a moment later, “This is as far as we go with this case.

Dont mention anything related to it.”

Elizabeth said, “Boss, this…”

Elsa leaned forward in her chair, spinning the pen in her hand.

“Whatever evidence you find, you wont be able to bring down the Elsworth family with it.

Youll only drag your family down with you.

Nobody likes their dirty laundry being aired, much less a big family.”

She sighed and continued, “You wont get any credit for this.

Even Elsworths political enemies wouldnt want you to do this.

If you just want answers, then keep quiet and wait.”

With that, she waved her hand, indicating that Elizabeth and Billy could leave.

After the office door was shut once more, Elsa looked at Luke.

“Youre going to investigate”

Luke chuckled.

“Boss, arent you afraid that Ill piss off the Elsworth family this time”

After a brief silence, Elsa said, “What happened before was just a power struggle between the bigshots.

It has nothing to do with us, but this case is beyond my expectations.

If you dont want to investigate it, fine.

Ill give it to someone else.”

Luke said with a smile, “You only have Elizabeth and me under your command.

Dont tell me you want to do it yourself.

Boss, how long has it been since youve worked a case like this Arent you afraid theyll make you disappear”

Elsa smiled bitterly.

“Dont scare me.

I know how serious it is.”

Luke, however, waved his hand.

“Ill look into it.

If we dont use the police departments resources and channels, therell be less chance of problems popping up.”

He then looked at Elsa.

“But dont ask about this case anymore.

Just pretend that you dont know anything.”

Elsas lips twitched. Wasnt that what I told Elizabeth Why are you teaching me now

But seeing Lukes calm expression, she nodded slowly.

Like she had said, they wouldnt get any credit for working this case, and the police department wouldnt protect them.

The Elsworths had extensive connections in Los Angeles and in the police department; once they got wind of any news, they would just create trouble for the investigation.

This was power!

After they left, Luke and Selina spent the day working other cases.

When they returned home at night, they had dinner, trained, and worked overtime as usual.

As Luke sat in the living room and pondered which bigshot to look for to confess whatever intelligence they had, his phone rang.

After the call connected, Jenny asked right away, “Where are you”

Luke said, “At home.”

“Come to my place.

I have something to ask you,” Jenny said decisively.

Looking at the time, Luke felt that he could spare some time, and said, “…Okay.”

Du du du!

Jenny had already hung up.

Luke was stumped.

Was the young lady angry She didnt even say goodbye.

On his way over, he felt a little awkward.

The initial plan in going to Europe was to score some points with Miss Beth and gain some benefits for their phone company.

In the end, he had realized that it was a great opportunity to earn some experience and credit.

Between experience and credit or money, he chose experience and credit.

After all, money could be earned sooner or later, but experience and credit points were never enough.

Now that he thought about it, it seemed that he hadnt completed his mission.

Maybe he would have to work harder later so that Miss Jenny could vent her anger.

Ever since he personally modified Jennys security system, he would directly enter the villas underground garage via a secret passage after sending Jenny a message to open it.

The reason why they changed how they met was because the business they discussed was becoming more and more important, and they couldnt meet in a hotel room like they usually did.

Jenny had also changed her security guards and had Luke secretly screen them before the current security team was finally formed.

As for the security team that had been sent by Jennys father in the past, they naturally left.

She was very disappointed in her father and didnt need to rely on him for her living expenses or a security team; as ever, her father only loved her that much.

She had to stand on her own two feet.

And she would do that as Jenny Gwenis, not as someones daughter.

Luke was naturally happy to see this happen.

If he wanted a friend, it was very easy to make one.

On the other hand, the reason he and Jenny were able to maintain a connection was mostly because of their mutual needs.

He needed a business partner and a rich bigshot who could stand in the limelight.

Rather than cozying up to one, it was better to groom one himself.

Thinking about Jennys recent progress, Luke still felt that he had to convince her with both the carrot and the stick.

Taking a hard-line approach wasnt the way to get along with a partner.
