The office went completely silent when everyone saw the big bag of money in front of Luke Sullivan. The thugs who had come to get money from him stared with wide eyes, almost drooling."Officer Sullivan, I can't thank you enough," Sophia said with feeling. "You fought to save my hand! Without you, I can't imagine what would have happened to me! This hundred thousand dollars is nothing. If you don't take it, I'll be very upset! Please accept it!""Ahem..." Before Luke Sullivan could speak, Vincent made a strange cough and stepped forward to talk to Sophia . "Ma'am, you can't do this! We have rules in the police department. If Luke Sullivan takes your money, he'll be breaking our rules!""Stop!" Luke Sullivan quickly cut Vincent off and snapped, "Mind your own business!""You!?"

By displaying this photo, it marked the official closing of the Maimed Case.Looking at the whiteboard filled with case information, Luke Sullivan felt a deep sense of accomplishment. From the beginning to the end of the Maimed Case, he had put in tremendous effort. Though the Crime System had helped him, his own persistence played a key role. Thinking back on all the ups and downs during the investigation, Luke Sullivan realized he had actually become somewhat addicted to the process.Luke Sullivan stared blankly at the whiteboard, lost in thought. He didn't even notice Bella approaching with the money he had dropped."Hey boss, still daydreaming?" Bella held the few hundred dollars in her hands and laughed. "To be honest, I had my doubts about you! It's truly a miracle!" After expressing her amazement, Luke Sullivan remained unresponsive. He kept s

Sophia Young forced a sad smile and sighed, "Maybe this is all fate! To get her revenge and cut off my hand, Lila Davis dug up my father's grave! I guess this was meant to be!""Oh..." As he heard this, Luke Sullivan suddenly understood. The person who had placed the blade for Lila Davis wasn't Sophia Young—it was Sophia Young's father!"Twenty years ago before the finals, we were practicing in Riverside Heights School's music hall according to the competition rules," Sophia Young remembered. "My practice time was set for three in the afternoon, and I had finished practicing. But that night, my father suddenly said he'd left something in the hall and told me to stay in the hotel while he went back! I saw my father looking worried and thought he must have lost something important. I was concerned and wanted to go with him, but he firmly refused!

The BMW pulled away from the entrance of Dalton Fruit Co., leaving Luke Sullivan standing unsteadily on his feet.In response to his obvious flirting, Wendy Felix had only replied softly, "I'm sorry, I don't have a surgical knife with me today!" Though her voice was gentle, her message was clear.Luke didn't feel rejected. Instead, he became more interested in Wendy Felix. Although she usually looked flirty and charming, she had principles and wasn't as easy as Luke had thought.
