Chapter 118

Luke's annual salary from Houston is now 54, 000.

Selena rose from 47, 000 to more than 60, 000, but the increase in salary is not enough to offset the increase in living expenses.

Of course, if they work for a few years, they will get more than 80000 annual salary, and then they will have plenty of money.

But before that, they might have to rely on the $50000 settlement fee.

Selena is so depressed because she left all the money for her family.

Luke has no problem with that.

Selina is very independent, but she is very concerned about her family. In terms of money, most Americans are different. She is willing to pay for her family, which is her freedom.

Luke doesn't think it's strange that he was Chinese in the last life. It's not uncommon that parents and children there helped each other to ruin their families.

His fifty thousand dollar knife has been mentioned to Catherine. She doesn't want it.

Robert even took the phone and told him to go away. If he had money, he would take the flowers.

After all, Robert has more than 50000 a year's salary, plus Catherine's more than 30000 a year's salary, Luke came out to work again, at least reducing their spending of thousands of dollars a year, the pressure of the two is not great.

Before Luke said that when he went to college, Robert had saved more than 20000 dollars to pay for his college tuition. Now, of course, the money was left to Claire, a senior two.

So now Robert and Catherine are not short of money.

I had a good rest for half a day. The next day, they went to the west district police station and went to work.

In the face of the two, Dustin hammer, the leader of the serious case team, was not hot and cold, which relieved both of them.

As long as it's not burrick's disgusting stuff.

Finally, they did not continue to be partners this time, but were each assigned to another old detective.

This is also a matter of reason.

After burick's incident, Luke found that he had a problem.

That is, although the two partners can get the leading power of the case, they will cause the dissatisfaction of the team leader.

In Houston, he didn't solve many cases in more than a month, except for the three major cases that happened by chance. In fact, the gains were a little low.

As a result, he and Selena agreed.

The two men, together with an old detective, accelerated their familiarity with the environment. After a while, he applied to bring the two back together.

At that time, they will be familiar with the environment here and have their own sources of information. They will not be afraid that the new team leader and Berwick are the same. They have no experience and no contacts.

Although this kind of transfer may not be easy, Luke can find a way.

Selena went to work with a black detective named Donald Duck, while Luke worked with a middle-aged Hispanic woman named Elsa Torres.

Los Angeles police station is the most beautiful police station, about 20%.

Second, there are more than 30% Hispanic police officers here.

Selena's arrival has undoubtedly added a little bit to these two figures. It's not surprising that Luke has been paired with a Hispanic woman.

Looking at Luke, Elsa was a little curious: "come on, I have two cases. Are you ok? Do you want me to give you a holiday? "

Luke smiled. "Oh, Elsa, I really like work."

Elsa said, "bullshit, no one likes work. At least not a few people in the serious case team like it. "

Luke smiled and nodded: "well, then you should think that I'm just here and want to show the right attitude."

Elsa was stunned, and then laughed, "well, that's fine."

Get in the car and Elsa drives out.

At this point, it's a very strong woman who doesn't even want to give the steering wheel to Luke.

However, in the serious cases group, it is difficult for women with weaker personalities to stay.

Luke asked casually, "what case are we going to investigate?"

Elsa: a troublesome case. Do you know winterste Katie

Luke thought and shook his head. "It's a little familiar. I can't remember it."

Elsa glanced at him. "Don't you know?"

Luke: famous? Men's and women's? "

Elsa: " A female star who has become popular in the past two years is only 21 years old. At the age of 16, when he was 19, he acted in the movie "don't move" by Peter, the great director, and became famous. "

Luke: Oh, I don't know. I'm just familiar with her. Maybe I read her name on the news by accident. "

Elsa ha ha: "she's in good shape, and KENLU, you haven't seen her movie?"

Luke shrugged: "I like watching movies and TV shows with big special effects and big scenes, such as star wars or brotherhood. You said this, should be a literary film? I don't see much. "

Elsa said, and accepted the answer."She had a little trouble recently. Two days ago, someone died in her family, but she said she didn't know him at all. Now, I'm going to her house again to ask about it. " Said Elsa.

Luke: what about the dead

"Anonymous. No identification, no dental records, no fingerprints or DNA. Young white male, 25 to 27 years old, 1.75 meters tall and over 220 pounds. Oh, by the way, his body was floating naked in Miss Katie's pool, only to be found the next morning by the cleaning babysitter and called the police. " Elsa said a lot of information.

Luke listened attentively and was surprised: "one meter, seventy-five, two hundred and twenty pounds? Is this a fat man? "

Elsa nodded, "so I can't think of the possibility of this man dying there in silence except for the inner ghost. The security of Miss Kitty's house is OK. It's not a place where 200 pounds of fat people can easily get in and out. "

Luke was also surprised by this.

It's not convenient for a fat man of more than 200 pounds to move, let alone run into the home of a female star.

These rich families basically have electronic security systems. When they are touched, someone will check them. They are not professionals, so they are not easy to sneak in.

Between the two, they had already driven to Beverly Hills.

Luke wondered, "Katie lives here. She's rich? Isn't she just a few years old? "

Elsa shrugged. "She lives here. How to make money and how much money she makes is the IRS's concern."

Luke asked him freely. Wen Wen turned a topic: "what clues did you investigate before?"

Elsa shakes her head: "the big star is very big. Every time we meet, we have a lawyer present. If it wasn't for human life, she would just ask the nanny to let us go. "
