Chapter 871: A Woman? Actually… I’m Gay

After they flattered Louis and tricked him into telling them about his “attack” on a police officer, they immediately felt that they had been deceived, and their pride was hurt.

Infuriated, they beat up the pretentious Louis.

Thankfully, Louis had quick reflexes and rich experience. He decisively pretended to be a dead dog to protect his vitals, which saved him from serious injury.

Even so, he was disheveled and covered in blood. He looked like a homeless tramp.

He was more than happy to let Luke take him away.

He swore that if he went to another detention center, he would never mention again how he had been arrested for a.s.saulting a cop; he would just say that he had run into a d.a.m.n cop who had abused their power.

“Don’t p.i.s.s off the guy next to you. He’s an old K9 fellow. He can bite off one of your hands,” said Luke.

“Be good, Gold Nugget. He’s too smelly and not tasty at all.” Luke soothed Gold Nugget, in case it really was annoyed enough to bite Louis.

Gold Nugget didn’t have a good temper.

Nevertheless, he and Selina had taught it not to bare its teeth at ordinary people.

However, it and Selina had looted a lot of hoodlums, and it knew that criminals didn’t have human rights in Luke’s book. It wouldn’t be a problem even if it bit the criminal, as long as the criminal wasn’t crippled.

Louis looked at Gold Nugget in horror.

Gold Nugget grinned at him.

Louis decisively plastered himself to the car door on his side, not daring to provoke the fierce old dog at all.

After bringing Louis into an interrogation room, Luke asked, “If you tell me the truth. I’ll take you in for carrying an illegal firearm. Otherwise, it’ll still be for a.s.saulting a cop. Deal?”

“Deal!” Louis agreed without hesitation.

Luke nodded in satisfaction. “Tell me, where did you kidnap the girl?”

Louis quickly shook his head. “No, I didn’t kidnap her. A man pa.s.sing by said that he would give her to me, and she followed me home.”

Luke and Selina looked at each other and asked, “So, you accepted it just like that? A stranger suddenly says that he’s ‘giving’ you a rich girl home, and she goes home with you – don’t you find that strange?”

Louis was stumped. He thought for a moment, then shook his head a little blankly. “I… I don’t know. The moment the man spoke, I did what he said. Is there a problem?”

Luke and Selina looked at each other again.

Luke asked, “What does the man look like? Anything special about him?”

Louis looked like he was recalling something. “He was a little skinny. He was wearing an expensive tailor made suit. There wasn’t anything special about him.”

Luke said, “How about when he spoke? Did he have an accent?”

Louis said, “That’s right, it sounded like an English accent.”

Luke and Selina looked at each other for the third time.

After that, Luke interrogated Louis for an hour and confirmed all the details of the ‘he’ who had delivered the girl.

After putting away the recorder, Luke suddenly remembered something. “You didn’t touch the girl?”

Louis murmured, “Detective, actually… I’m gay. How can I touch her?”

Luke and Selina were lost for words. No wonder Molly’s tests indicated that she hadn’t been a.s.saulted recently.

Molly wasn’t bad-looking, and she had been wearing above average attire. For nothing to happen to her when she was in the place of a hoodlum like Louis, this reason made sense.

At least, Luke didn’t think that it was because Louis was softhearted.

If it was a regular hooligan, he might even invite a bunch of his friends to share the pie that fell from the sky.

From the looks of it, although Molly had suffered terribly, she hadn’t ended up in the most tragic situation at the final stage.

After throwing Louis, the scapegoat, into the detention center, the two returned to the office, and the phone on the table rang.

After picking up the call, Selina simply said, “Let’s go. It’s the boss.”

Luke unwrapped three lollipops, one for each person, and had Selina bring two of the takeouts with them as they went to Dustin’s office.

It was already the afternoon, and there weren’t many colleagues in the hall. They weren’t afraid of people paying attention to the fact that they were going to the boss’s office with takeout and lollipops.

Dustin ignored the takeout box which Selina put next to the coffee machine in the corner of the office. He asked Luke to close the door, before he said, “You need to be more careful about the case Walter’s on. Your responsibility is just to make sure that he isn’t killed.”

Luke raised an eyebrow. “Someone wants to silence a police inspector?”

Even though the door was closed and there wasn’t anyone outside, Dustin subconsciously looked outside before he said in a low voice, “This case is a huge cesspit. Anyone who steps into it will be buried alive.”

Luke said, “I thought you wanted us to take note of Walter’s progress.”

Dustin said mockingly, “Progress? Sure, but it’s not progress on the case, but on how fast he’ll die.”

Luke sighed. “Kingpin?”

Dustin nodded. “You already know him. You fought his top killer, Bullseye, before. You know how scary he can be. What’s more troublesome is that the crime scene is in the 15th Precinct’s jurisdiction. It’s only a matter of how many moles Kingpin has in the precinct. If Walter and Ricky investigate a case there, they might disappear without a trace at any moment. It’s not the first time that detectives have gone missing, but those detectives seem to have vanished into thin air. Even if HQ knows that something’s wrong, they have no way of continuing the investigation.”

Luke nodded.

Investigating a police homicide and a missing cop was different.

If it was made to look like the cop had fled in order to escape being convicted, it would be even harder to investigate the matter.

This also wasn’t difficult to carry out. The sudden appearance of tens of thousands of dollars in the account of a police officer or his family could make the police suspect that he had been paid off.

And it was impossible for the missing officer to cooperate with the investigation and clear themself of suspicion.

Hesitating for a moment, Dustin said, “Last night, Brad gave me a call and hinted that I shouldn’t stick my nose into this case.”

Seeing that Luke was deep in thought, he continued, “Also, he specifically mentioned you and told me not to give you too much pressure. Do you understand?”

Luke smiled. “That’s a good thing. After all, I’m a newbie…”

Dustin got up unhappily and picked up the takeaway box that was next to the coffee machine. Opening it and seeing the roast meat inside, he swallowed before he took a bite.

Luke and Selina remained silent.
