Having come to that thought, Luke could no longer sit around. He figured even if he was wrong, he still had to take a look. He put down his beer glass and quickly went in the direction where the male with the designer clothes had run off to.

The bar exit was a plain, small steel door, similar to the entrance. Luke rushed out and immediately emerged into a narrow, dark alley.

It was already 10:00pm at night, and the alley was deathly quiet. He looked both ways. Using the moonlight, Luke quickly saw the shadow of someone fleeing past on his right.

"Huh?" He paused for a moment, even more suspicious now. He quickly ran in that direction.

Chasing and being chased were both his previous specialties. Not only was Luke fast, but he was also light on his feet, and there was no sound in his pursuit.

The shadow had disappeared to another small and dark alley. The alley headed straight towards the parking lot.

When Luke walked past a green dumpster, he suddenly saw someone on the ground. It was the rich man who had just left with the gold digger.

But right now, he was lying face up, completely out cold.

'Jesus Christ!' Luke was stunned. By the way the man laid stiffly on the ground, he was eighty percent sure that the man had just been knocked out by a criminal!

If the man was already Yorked, then what about the woman?

Luke lowered his head and stared into the darkness. He could not see anything, but he heard shuffling from around a corner somewhere ahead.

'Holy shit!'

Had he really hit the bullseye?

Luke couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He looked to the side again and conveniently noticed a short metal pipe, which he picked up.

He tiptoed towards the corner nervously, and poked his head out. Luke suddenly saw the man in designer clothes from the bar on the ground messing with something.

Taking a closer look, he could see the gold digger was already knocked out on the ground, and the male in designer clothes was hurriedly removing her clothing!

Luke's eyes bulged. There was no question now. What was happening before him explained everything. The York Criminal that the police were trying so hard to catch was currently right in front of him!

"Alright, buddy!" Luke thought to himself. "Meeting me here today, you should count yourself unlucky! It's time to eliminate the enemy of the public!" Beating people up was his specialty. He moved forward in one swift step, and before the man in designer clothes could react, Luke slammed the pipe into the back of his head.

He was strong to begin with, but he was even more forceful using the pipe. With a loud clacking sound, the pipe had even broken in half!

The man in designer clothes had not expected the ambush, and jumped up in surprise. He then glared at Luke with a look of immense evil, the weapon in his hand rattling menacingly.

"No way?!" Luke thought. He was thunderstruck, and stared blankly at the man in designer clothes. "How can it be that the man is unharmed? Was his skin made of iron or something?"

But the man in designer clothes glared at him for two more seconds, then his eyes rolled backwards, his legs gave out, and he fell to the ground completely out cold!

Luke let out a long breath of relief, then quickly pulled out his phone.

An hour later, he was back in the police station office.

Right now, the office was in even more commotion than before. All the investigators were nervously waiting for comparison results.

Bella's cute, large eyes were wide as she gave a thumbs up, "Senior, you're amazing! To catch the criminal singlehandedly! So, when you said you wanted the day off, was it to hide your true intention? Tell us, did you already find the information about the criminal long ago?"

Luke was not sure why, but he felt nothing for cute girls like Bella. Maybe it was her lackluster figure, or that she looked too young, or maybe too average?

Seeing her talking nonstop, he was somewhat annoyed and spoke up, "Can you go make some coffee for me?"

"Sure! Sure!" Bella could not have been happier as she ran towards the break room.

At this time, Vincent spoke to no one in particular, "Hmph, don't be too happy too early! We're still not sure whether we caught the criminal or not! If it was a mistake, someone's in big trouble!"

The words were clearly directed at Luke, but right now, he was exhausted, and simply ignored him.

But right as Vincent finished, Detective Priscillia excitedly ran into the lobby and exclaimed, "Team! The results are out: blood and urine both match, as does the genotype. We can assuredly say that this person is the culprit of the York Case! Case closed!"

Hearing this, the office broke out in clapping, some happy, some excited, and some jealous, but everyone's eyes all turned towards Luke.

Just an hour ago, he had fought with the vice captain over asking for the day off. No one could have expected that only an hour later, the person who solved the case so quickly was also him!

Everyone was definitely confused. Everyone wondered what kind of method Luke had used to catch the culprit.

"Yay! That's great, Officer Sullivan!" Bella placed the coffee in front of him, complimenting him excitedly, "Congratulations! Once you get your reward money, don't forget to invite us out for some food!"

  • The Truth Revealed

    Luke Sullivan felt his heart racing as the lie detector gave him the answer he needed. The real killer was right here in front of him! But at the same time, he felt relief washing over him. Since Paul and Yasmine never had an affair, Yasmine probably had nothing to do with Martin's death!This whole case had been eating at Luke because of that one nagging thought. His gut kept telling him that Yasmine might be connected to the Slaughter Case somehow. But deep down, he didn't want her to be the killer. This poor woman had been through hell and back. She finally found some happiness in her life. How could he be the one to destroy it all?Luke needed to be absolutely certain. He leaned forward and asked Paul one more question. "Did Yasmine hire you to kill Martin? Or did she pressure you into doing it?""No! I..." Paul started to say more, but Luke quickly put his hand over the man's mouth. The lie detector wouldn't work right if the answer was too long. The green light blinked on

  • The Lie Detector Interrogation

    Luke had studied the lie detector manual cover to cover the night before. The device was supposedly one hundred percent accurate, but it only worked with clear, simple questions. That's why he told Paul to stick to "yes" or "no" answers only.When Luke activated the invisible lie detector, a basic display appeared in his mind: a red light, a green light, and a ten-minute countdown timer in the top right corner. The whole thing looked like something a kid might draw. Watching the precious seconds tick away, Luke jumped right into his questions.Since this was his first time using the device, Luke started with something simple. "Are you male?""Yes!" Paul looked confused but went along with it.The green light flashed in Luke's head. So green means truth, he thought. "Are you female?" He needed to test the system."No!" Green light again."Okay..." Luke wanted to see how the detector handled lies. He looked at Paul . "Listen, I'm going to ask you something, but I want you to say yes,

  • Unconventional Interrogation

    Luke Sullivan stood there with his hands raised, head tilted to one side, wearing the most annoying grin anyone had ever seen. The federal agents in the room felt their blood boil. If Luke had been acting tough or cocky, they would have thrown him against the wall without a second thought. But this? This surrender act? It threw them completely off balance.It was like being in the final seconds of a championship basketball game, ready to make the winning shot, only to have the opposing team suddenly step aside and leave the basket wide open. The lack of resistance made it impossible to follow through. On the streets, they call this "rope-a-dope" - let your opponent tire themselves out while you conserve your energy.Luke knew exactly what he was up against. The room was packed with young, aggressive federal agents, plus Yvonne - a woman who could probably take down three men without breaking a sweat. If this turned into a brawl, he'd be eating through a straw for the next month. So h

  • The Signal Jam Gambit

    Luke Sullivan had it all planned out. He knew exactly what he was doing when he acted so cocky and rude. He wanted to make Yvonne and her team angry on purpose. He needed them mad enough to agree to his crazy bet.Luke knew the truth - fighting Yvonne wouldn't get him anywhere. If they threw punches today, it would only make things worse. He'd never get a chance to question the suspect that way. So he had to try something extreme. Maybe then he'd have a shot.The bet was his trap from the very beginning. He'd been waiting to spring it on Yvonne . And wow, she actually fell for it! Of course, Luke wouldn't have been this bold without his secret weapon from the Crime System. He knew exactly how his special items worked. After thinking it through, he'd come up with this wild plan at the last minute.The Invisible Signal Jammer was his ace in the hole. According to the description, it could block signals within 100 meters. That was more than enough to shut down the entire police station

  • How to Compete?

    "Damn it!" Detective John slammed his foot down and yelled, "I can't stand this anymore! I want to punch his lights out!""Captain!" Another detective begged Yvonne , his face red with anger, "This guy is way too cocky! We need to put him in his place!""Yeah!" A third detective chimed in, "Let's all jump him and then charge him with harassment! What do you say? I really can't take it anymore!" All the detectives were grinding their teeth and pacing around like caged animals.Captain Yvonne clenched her fists tight. She wanted nothing more than to deck Luke right then and there. But she was the captain of this precinct, and something felt off about Luke's attitude. The guy was being way too bold. Maybe he had a hidden camera or recording device on him. If she laid a hand on him, it could come back to bite her later. But Luke had called her a coward and said her team was worthless. How could she just sit there and take that?Finally, Yvonne brought her fist down hard on her desk. Ev

  • Anyone but You is Fine

    There's an old saying that goes: "What's coming will come, and you can't stop it."When Luke finally walked into the Rochester Branch Special Crimes Unit office, team leader Yvonne was shocked beyond belief."Wow! Mister Luke , I'm truly amazed!" Yvonne 's bright eyes went wide as she gave him a sarcastic thumbs up. "Your nerve is really something else! So tell me... did you come to our precinct just to cause trouble?"Yvonne wore a crisp leather jacket that caught the light. Her sleek black hair fell perfectly around her shoulders. At 5'5", her confident posture made her look even more striking and fierce.Even though Luke knew exactly how difficult she could be, seeing such a beautiful woman standing there still took his breath away for a moment.He stared for a few seconds, then grinned coldly. "Come on, Yvonne . What do you mean 'cause trouble'? You make me sound like some kind of criminal! Captain Helen should have called you already, right? I'm here on official business!""Y
