Luke shook his head helplessly and entered the house through the open window. He signaled to the two SWAT members who were dragging the middle-aged man along.
Jim was one of the two SWAT members. He found it a little odd, but still pulled the middle-aged man upright. Luke put the burgers and the receipt into the middle-aged man’s cuffed hands. “Your burgers have been delivered. That’ll be fifty dollars in total. No tip necessary.”
He then took a few notes from the guy’s desk, which amounted to fifty dollars exactly.
The middle-aged man: …
Jim: …
The SWAT members: …
Harrison, who was outside: …
After the middle-aged man was thrown into a police car, Luke gave the cash and the SWAT helmet to Jim. “See? You don’t need to submit a work expense now.”
Harrison’s expression was strange, but he nodded in the end. “That’s right. It’s true that the guy wanted the food himself. Everybody here can bear witness.”
Jim hesitated, but in the end put the cash in his pocket and said to Luke, “Thanks!”
Luke chuckled. “Don’t worry, I won’t steal your job again. I don’t work for SWAT!”
Harrison rolled his eyes. You dare say that? Don’t you know many times you’ve stolen our work?!
After this bizarre case was over, Luke said goodbye to Captain Harrison and left in his secondhand Ford.
Watching the Ford drive off, Jim couldn’t help but sigh. “He really is such a steady character. My legs were shaking when I thought I had to deliver the food, but for him… it was too easy.”
He subconsciously touched his pocket which contained the fifty bucks he had just gotten back.
He had even forgotten about it.
Harrison glanced at him but didn’t say anything
The man had killed more tough criminals than his entire SWAT squad had – how could he not be a steady character?
The sun was setting by the time Luke got home.
After he opened the door, someone jumped on his back. “Hahahaha. Surprise!”
Smiling, Luke kicked the door close and unhurriedly put his keys down. “Yes, what a big surprise!”
“Hey, can you at least pretend to be surprised?” The person on his back tapped his head gently in dissatisfaction.
Luke said helplessly, “But it’s too hard! Alright, we’ll go out for a big meal tonight. How does that sound?”
“Not interested. It’s not like I can drink.” The person on his back was unenthusiastic.
“Claire, you’re not eighteen yet.” Luke stretched his hand back to pat her head. “Although everybody drinks alcohol before eighteen, I can’t give you this privilege, alright?”
Naturally, the person on Luke’s back was his cousin Claire.
Hearing that, she said angrily, “I was just saying it casually. Why are you lecturing me like an old man?”
Luke carried her on his back to the living room. “Once you go to college, who’ll be there to lecture you every day? I’m only reminding you in case you really think that drinking is a good idea.”
Claire: “Fine, you like reasoning the best. Even Robert can’t beat you in speaking.”
Luke chuckled and asked Selina, “What did you do with her in the afternoon?”
Selina was eating popcorn on the couch with Dollar.
Hearing the question, she shrugged. “Claire said that she wanted to wait for you, so we came straight back without going anywhere.”
Luke: “Then should I make a feast for the both of you tonight?”
Selina immediately answered, “Okay!”
Claire, however, was stunned. “You’re cooking?”
She looked at Selina suspiciously, and thought it was strange that Selina wasn’t cooking.
Selina snorted. “I can only make pig swill. If you want to eat it, I can cook for you, but for the record, I won’t eat it.” Claire: “What?”
Luke shook his head with a smile. “Then I’ll go prepare dinner. Whether or not Claire eats what you make, I don’t care.”
Saying that, he patted Claire’s head again. “Get off now. I have to make dinner.” Claire finally jumped off reluctantly. “I want to watch you cook.”
Luke: “Be my guest, but don’t cause any trouble.”
Claire: “No problem.”
But just several minutes later, Selina heard Claire’s exclamations from the kitchen. “That’s impossible! This has to be a trick!
“How can my brother suddenly turn into a chef?
“Why did you never cook at home?
“Can Selina really only make pig swill?”
Selina rolled her eyes. She kept reading the case files while she ate snacks and gave some to Dollar.
Luke wasn’t angry or impatient in the face of Claire’s endless questions, and answered all of them.
They had always been like this back at home. This little monkey hadn’t played with him like this in a long time.
Forty minutes later, Claire finally followed him out of the kitchen. “Can it really be eaten? Will I get food poisoning?” Pondering for a moment, Luke replied, “Then how about you watch me and Selina eat first?”
Claire shook her head firmly.
Luke nodded in resignation. “Do you want something to drink? Dinner will only be ready in half an hour.”
Claire: “I’ll get it myself.”
Luke shrugged and sat down to enjoy his tea. Claire came back with a Dr. Pepper. She opened it and had a mouthful, before she burped in satisfaction.
She sat down on the couch and smelled Luke’s green tea curiously. “It smells fragrant. Can I have some?”
Luke: “Go grab a cup and pour some for yourself.”
Hugely interested, Claire fetched a cup and poured tea into it. She blew on it until it was cooler, and then drank it down in one gulp.
Then, she jumped to her feet, spat out the tea, and hopped around the room. “Ah, it’s so bitter! Why is it so bitter? Is it medicine?”
Selina burst out laughing.
Neither she nor Luke had said anything just now, precisely to have some fun with Claire.
Tea could taste unimaginably bitter right after drinking a sweet soda.
At Claire’s age, her favorite was sweet foods, and she could do without bitterness.Luke poured a cup of tea for himself unhurriedly, and Selina said, “Pour me a cup, please.”
Luke smiled and poured some tea into her cup as well. Then, the two of them smiled broadly as they had the tea and looked at Claire.
Claire couldn’t understand their behavior at all. She picked up the teapot and looked at it for a long time. “Are there two layers in the pot? Why else can you enjoy such bitter stuff?”
Selina laughed out loud. “You shouldn’t have drunk this after drinking soda! It’ll be so bitter it makes you cry!”
Of course, she wouldn’t tell Claire that she did the same stupid thing before
Selina suddenly felt a sense of superiority — finally, she was no longer the only person to have done that.
After fooling around for a bit, the three of them moved to the backyard.
Selina and Claire switched into their bathrobes and ran to the spa.
