Chapter 221 Met Two Girls

Selina said, “Do you really not know why I’m not coming back?”

Luke: “…Got it. Thanks.”

Selina said, “I’ll be shopping for the next two days. Don’t bother me, got it?”

Luke said, “Okay, but you have to call me every day so that I know that you’re safe. Also, that red-skinned weirdo can be very dangerous. You have to be careful.”

Before she hung up the phone, Selina suddenly said, “Go for it. I have high hopes for you, young man!”

After knowing that Selina wasn’t coming back, Luke was reassured.

If the red-skinned weirdo did come back, he would definitely go after Luke rather than Selina, who hadn’t been the one to attack the man.

It would be safer for Selina if she kept her distance from Luke for a day or two.

When Luke returned to the living room, the two girls were already enjoying their drinks.

Luke couldn’t help but shake his head when he saw what they were drinking. “This wine is too lousy. Let’s change to a different bottle.”

He quickly found a Chateau Latour, a brand that he was very familiar with but had never enjoyed, and filled the girls’ cups.

As for himself, he simply had soda water.

Between the two girls, Lanchi was gentler and less talkative, while Trinity was more proactive and straightforward. She simply asked, “Why are you not drinking? Are you trying to make us drunk, so that you can…” She laughed as she spoke.

Lanchi blushed slightly, partly because of the alcohol. She also looked at Luke with a smile.

Luke shrugged. “I’m a detective. I’ll be less vigilant if I have alcohol, and it’ll also make my hands shake, so I never drink.”

Neither of the girls were convinced. “But don’t a lot of officers go to a bar when they get off work?”

Luke chuckled. “I’m different. Sometimes, I have to carry out dangerous missions.”

The girls’ eyes glowed. “Really? Like James Bond?”

Luke was briefly lost for words. “He’s a special agent. His main business is to hit on girls, while his secondary objective is to acquire intelligence from them. It’s rare when he finally remembers what his actual job is. He certainly can’t compare with me.”

The girls laughed at the same time.

After Luke returned, he had sat down between the girls, and they didn’t show any reluctance.

Now that they were laughing, the three of them were even friendlier than before.

Gradually, they talked less and started acting more.

In the end, both girls fell asleep from exhaustion, but Luke was still as energetic as ever.

His physique was now ten times that of a regular person, and his body had been sending him strong signals about his explosive energy after his level-up.

That was the reason why he had said yes to the two girls so quickly.

Although it wasn’t a big deal for many people, he had never really tried it before.

40 Strength was already so amazing. Should he continue increasing Strength in the future? Hm, maybe he should consider it.

He was a man determined to enjoy all the beauty that the world had to offer, and stamina was definitely necessary for that.

In the next two days, Selina talked to Luke over the phone but never showed up in person.

So, Luke went around Las Vegas with the two girls and took plenty of photos with them.

After their drunken episode on the first day, both girls let go of their worries and enjoyed the unexpected holiday.

Luke wasn’t short of money, so they could visit any place they wanted.

After two days, he realized that Lanchi, who seemed gentle, was actually wild and passionate, and Trinity, who seemed proactive, was shyer and more innocent.

But when Lanchi unleashed her wild and passionate side, Trinity was able to set her nature free, too.

Naturally, Luke enjoyed the company of the two girls.

After he woke up on the morning of the third day, he got dressed and left the room.

He reached the forensics center before eight o’clock and found Old Greyson reading files in his office.

Seeing that Luke was here, Old Greyson gestured at him to close the door.

A moment later, Old Greyson shifted his gaze and said, “You look quite relaxed. Did anything good happen?”

Luke chuckled. “Yes. I met two girls who were quite nice.”

Old Greyson was astonished. “…Two?”

Luke nodded with a smile.

Pondering for a moment, Old Greyson nodded slowly. “That’s not bad. You should try to relax like that once in a while. It’ll be good for you.”

Luke wondered what Robert’s reaction would be if he knew what Old Greyson was telling him.

Noticing his expression, Old Greyson said casually, “Many mercenaries relax and readjust their mindset in various ways, and women are an effective and widely-used method. That’s not a problem.”

Luke thought for a moment before he nodded. “Got it.”

Old Greyson changed the subject. “We nabbed the Diorama Killer; it really was the female cleaner. Is there anything else you would like to add?”

Luke shook his head. “No; I hope you don’t blame me for ruining your fun.”

Old Greyson said, “You didn’t… Well, fine, I am slightly disappointed, but I must thank you for giving me the answer, since we can stop her from slaughtering more random, innocent victims.”

Luke chuckled but didn’t say anything.

Old Greyson had to be bummed; it was like two evenly-matched opponents playing chess, and a bystander suddenly volunteering to play a move for one of them and checkmating the opponent.

The loser would feel like crap, but the winner wouldn’t be happy either, because he hadn’t won through his own efforts.

After saying that, Old Greyson fell silent.

He had never been a talker. Had it not been for Luke’s special identity and condition, he wouldn’t be wasting so much time talking to him.

Now that Luke had an effective method to help him relax, though it was a little premature for an 18-year-old, Old Greyson lost interest in helping him.

After chatting for a while, they said goodbye and agreed to meet more often.
