Chapter 127 - Shower Show

None of the four women were visible.

Luke wasn’t in a hurry to move forward. Instead, he took a deep breath to determine their location.

They were resting in a shack that was situated in one corner of the warehouse.

It was possible to see the warehouse from the shack’s window, but the view would be limited.

Luke unhurriedly approached the car in the shadows of the warehouse.

The car wasn’t far from the shack, and the women inside would hear him if he made any noise.

Thankfully, they didn’t have any advanced weapons. Of course, it wouldn’t be a problem for Luke even if they did.

Luke stopped near the shack and took another deep breath to locate the four women.

Two were watching TV, one was playing on her phone, and the last was taking a shower. The shampoo fragrance drifted over almost as if on its own accord.

Luke smiled and approached the car.

Moving the dark plastic tarpaulin slightly, Luke frowned; it rustled as soon as he touched it. No wonder the women hadn’t bothered to set up any sort of alarm.

Luke bent down and observed the cae.

He discovered that the plastic tarpaulin didn’t really cover the car the whole way, and there was a ten-centimeter gap at the back.

Luke lay down and stealthily stuck a tiny chip inside the exhaust pipe.

He then examined the exhaust pipe with a tiny flashlight and a mirror.

The chip was the same color as the exhaust pipe, and wouldn’t be discovered unless it was observed from up close.

Luke nodded in satisfaction and put away the flashlight and the mirror.

After installing another bug on one of the car’s back doors, Luke quietly rose, ready to leave.

Suddenly, he heard the noise of the bathroom door opening in the shack, and the sound of a female voice.

Luke was rather anxious.

He was still lying on the ground behind the car.

The window of the shack opened. Smelling the scent, he knew that one of the women had craned her head to look outside.

Thankfully, Luke had wedged himself in the gap under the shack before she opened the window, so she didn’t see him.

However, in the next moment, the door of the shack opened, and three women came out.

Luke was rendered speechless.

He was now in a dilemma.

If he went out, the woman who was observing from the window would catch him.

But if he were to stay here, the other three women might detect him when they searched the place.

The three women turned on their flashlights and examined the car.

They circled the car and paid special attention to the bottom. However, the plastic tarpaulin looked the same as before, and they didn’t find anything out of place.

The first woman frowned. She was still wet and undressed.

New York at night in November was too cold for her.

Shivering, she looked around with the flashlight and said, “It’s nothing. I was probably too nervous.”

The other women didn’t complain. One couldn’t be too careful when they had so much money in the car.

The three women returned to the shack and shut the door.

The volume of the TV was turned up, and they resumed their conversation.

Luke felt quite lucky.

He finally relaxed his hands and feet, and fell on the ground without a sound.

There was a tiny space blocked by planks and tubes below the shack, mainly used for the purpose of fixing the wiring in the shack.

Just now, Luke had been hanging onto a tube in the corner.

The gap was only thirty centimeters wide, and someone would need to be extremely strong and have a keen sense of balance to hide in it.

Also, it was at a blind angle that could escape detection.

When the first woman finally examined the gap, Luke had actually been right next to her.

Although the light was dim, Luke had keen eyes.

Since they were close to each other, he almost saw her completely naked.

The woman who had been taking a shower was none other than the electrifying chick who had left the deepest impression on Luke.

She was wearing nothing but a bath towel that barely covered her back.

What else could Luke do except hold his breath and enjoy the show?

As it so happened, the woman was the most active searcher. She circled the area multiple times, and her unrestrained breasts bounced in front of her. Water also dripped from her wet hair.

Luke could only stay silent and watch.

It truly was like a shampoo commercial!

Luke calmed down and managed to get the exciting picture out of his head, before he slowly slipped away.

After he flung himself out of the window, Luke looked back at the shack and grinned, before he rode his bike away.

He heard sounds from the garage when he returned to the apartment.

Luke knocked on the shutter and asked, “Hey, is that you, Bell?”

Bell replied, “Ah, you’re back, Luke. Come on in.”

Then, the shutter was rolled up, and Luke entered the garage. He clicked his tongue at the cab that had been taken apart. “What happened to your baby? Was it bombed?”

Bell said in frustration, “No, it suffered a tsunami.”

Noticing the disbelief on Luke’s face, she sighed. “The car took a dive into the water. A lot of the parts have to be replaced. I don’t know if I can get it done before your job.”

Luke observed it for a while and nodded. “It truly is a lot of work. How about this? I can help you for an hour now, and I’ll help you again tomorrow if I have the time. Let’s hope that we can revive your baby by tomorrow night.”

Bell asked him suspiciously, “You know how to repair a car?”

Luke shrugged and said, “A little bit. Besides, aren’t you a master? Just treat me as your helper.”

Bell realized that it made sense, and immediately started to order him around.

Luke had Tony Stark’s abilities right now, and engineering was one of them.

However, Tony Stark didn’t specialize in cars, which was at most a hobby for him. So, Luke merely followed Bell’s instructions without offering much advice.

An hour later, it was two in the morning.

Luke patted his hands together and said, “Bell, it’s time to go to bed.”

Bell, however, was still screwing on a nut. She said, “I’ll work for a while longer. I can’t go to sleep anyway.”

Luke shook his head. “You can’t fix the car overnight. You haven’t slept for days, have you? Get some sleep and keep working tomorrow morning.”

After that, he went upstairs and went to bed.
