2025-04-02 22:54:15Throwing the police station into chaos gave Luke Sullivan immense satisfaction, but the confusion in his mind didn't stop.
He wasn't sure how he had crossed over into such a normal world. Not only that, what happened to the former Luke whose body he had taken? In this situation, was it possession or reincarnation?
The new memories told him that the Luke Sullivan of this world had the same birthday as him, was born in a small town, had elderly parents, and came from humble beginnings.
They had the same starting point, but as they grew up, they walked two completely different paths in life.
One chose to fight and die in the streets, becoming a gang enforcer; the other excelled in school and graduated from New York University, becoming a respected member of society, and then a police officer.
The irony wasn't lost on him. Before, he was always running from the cops, but now his role had completely reversed. Now he was a cop himself.
"Don't tell me. I'll have to chase down other gangsters with a badge now?" Thinking ahead, he couldn't help but contemplate his future. Now that he had crossed over, what was he supposed to do? Should he quit the force and go back to his old life? Or keep the job, and have a steady paycheck?
After thinking it through, he came to a brilliant decision, "To hell with it all, first things first, let's celebrate this successful crossover by living it up!"
Before his execution, he had spent two whole years in prison. It had been forever since he had lived freely. He wasn't particularly hungry, but there were other desires he needed to satisfy.
So, he hailed a cab, planning to paint the town red. Take care of his urges first; other problems could wait.
The car engine hummed to life, he spotted a pack of cigarettes next to the driver, and took one without asking, placing it between his lips.
The driver was pretty cool about it, even offering his lighter.
He flicked the lighter and lit up. But after just one drag, he started coughing violently like he was choking.
It felt like his lungs were trying to escape, the sensation was incredibly unpleasant.
"Damn!" he cursed to himself. Could it be that the Luke Sullivan of this world had never even smoked before?
Just as he finished that thought, he felt a strange sensation in his mind, followed by a clear, androgynous voice speaking suddenly, "Crime System successfully engaged, randomizing."
"What the hell was that?" He turned to the cab driver, but his blank expression told him he hadn't heard anything.
He suddenly realized only he could hear the voice.
"Enhance your new destiny. You are blessed. Good fortune will come. Take it easy."
The words came quickly and stopped within seconds, returning to silence.
He sat there stunned, unable to remember a single word clearly. "What the hell was that?"
Why were there voices in his head?
'Am I losing it? Wait!' Suddenly, he remembered the first few words, "Crime System!"
"Crime System?! Oh!" He finally remembered where he'd seen this before - in all those reincarnation stories he'd read, there was always some magical system that appeared. With this system, advancement and solving crimes would be a piece of cake!
'Holy... Yes!' He had obtained the Crime Detection System? "But... this Crime Detection System... what exactly does it do?"

Now it was time to celebrate!With the hundred thousand dollars he'd received from Sophia Young, Luke Sullivan could consider himself pretty well-off. Being naturally generous, he not only ordered Sailor 's best food and drinks but also invited everyone to karaoke afterward to enjoy the night to the fullest! Everyone from Team A showed up except for Raymond Larson, who was in the hospital, and substitute leader Vincent.No joke—Luke had threatened everyone that if they didn't come, they could never look him in the eye again!

The Truth Behind the Maimed Case
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! My father rarely spoke to me in such a strong tone, so I knew not to follow. I could only wait in the hotel since he wouldn't let me come alo
You’re Wrong about Something
When Sophia Young woke up in the hospital, of course there were police officers waiting to question her. But because the case had such a complicated history, they couldn't tell her everything. Just like at the Grand Piano Competition years ago, no one had mentioned Lila Davis's name to her.But when Detective Luke Sullivan brought up Lila Davis, Sophia Young didn't look surprised at all. She acted like she knew the name well. In fact, she seemed to already know that Lila Davis was the one who had attacked her! Even stranger, Luke Sullivan hadn't even explained what happened, but Sophia Young already knew exactly what had happened to Lila Davis. This made her look very suspicious. The truth was, Luke Sullivan had set a trap, and Sophia Young had walked right into it.Sophia Young realized her mistake too late. She sat there nervously, fidgeting and picking at her arm."Miss Sophia ," Luke Sullivan kept his voice calm and steady, "Last year on May 22nd, Mary Nelson became the first vict
Case not Completed
In Team A's office, Luke Sullivan pinned the photo of himself and Lila Davis taken at the gravesite onto the center of the whiteboard. 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
Luke’s Outrage
When Luke Sullivan started talking street slang, everyone in the police station froze - both the cops and the troublemakers."Bro...I..." The blonde's face turned purple. "I...I don't know what you mean.""What the hell!" Luke yelled. "How are you on the streets if you don't know this stuff? Are you a baby? Listen up - red lips means if you slap someone, you pay them with red bills. White knife means if you cut someone, you pay with silver. Golden finger...""I get it!" Bella cut in. "Golden finger means if you cut off someone's finger, you pay them with gold!""Exactly!" Luke gave Bella a thumbs up, then turned back to the blonde. "We're in a police station, so we can't get too bloody. I'll pick the first one - red lips! You asked me for two thousand dollars, but I gave you ten thousand - almost five times more. So you should take five slaps from me, back and forth. But I hit hard, so I'll give you a deal. Just two slaps, and the money's yours!""What?!" The blonde was shocked. He
