Los Angeles Legendary Sleuth

Chapter 478: Who Is He? (3)


"Yes."

Linda laughed, "She has a nice personality and is very pretty..."

"Mom, we're just colleagues, she came to me for business."

"You can't fool me, Reid called you and you refused, and he's your boss. If you don't like Orty, why did you go with her?"

Luke lowered his voice, "Mom, I separate my personal and professional life and won't let private matters affect work.

Besides, Orty accepted the task from the client to invite me back to Los Angeles.

The client paid a million US Dollars, and most of this money will end up in my pocket."

As an accountant's ex-wife, Linda quickly understood what Luke meant, "Can you get five hundred thousand US Dollars?"

"Eighty hundred thousand US Dollars."

"Oh my God! Eighty hundred thousand..." Linda covered her mouth, showing a surprised expression, "Then why wait until tomorrow? Just buy tonight's ticket, go go go!"

Luke "..."

The next morning, a little past six o'clock.

Luke and Orty rushed to Honolulu International Airport.

At this time, there weren't many people in the departure hall, the two sat together chatting.

Orty yawned, looking at the sea view outside the window, showing a reluctant expression on her pretty face, "Can you participate in the case investigation after returning to Los Angeles?"

"Yes." Luke nodded, last night he contacted Reid and agreed to return to the police station to investigate the kidnapping case.

Orty asked softly, "What do you think of the white man in the sketch?"

In Luke's view, the man wearing the hat was most likely coming for him, aiming to prevent him from returning to Los Angeles early, probably with some connection to the kidnapping case.

"After returning to Los Angeles, ask the client who knows about hiring me to investigate the kidnapping case?"

"Understood."

Orty nodded, picked up her coffee cup, and took a sip, her gaze landing on an Asian woman, "Do you know the Asian beauty diagonally opposite?"

Luke followed Orty's gaze, the Asian woman had a delicate face, fair skin, wearing a khaki shirt, blue skirt, with a good figure and proportions.

"Don't know."

"Feels like she's been watching us."

Luke laughed, "To be precise, she should be looking at me."

"That confident?"

Luke raised an eyebrow, "Am I not handsome?"

"Not bad." Orty responded perfunctorily, playfully said, "Since the beauty is paying attention to you, why not ask for her number."

Luke looked again at the Asian beauty, she was indeed very pretty and had a good figure, if Orty wasn't around, he might really go talk to her.

The woman seemed to notice too, and raised her head, just meeting Luke's gaze, nodding with a polite smile.

Orty saw this too, nudged Luke with her shoulder, "You guessed right, she is indeed interested in you. You both might really get along since you're both Asian."

Luke shook his head, "She probably isn't Chinese."

Orty guessed, "Korean?"

Luke shook his head, "Probably not."

Both Koreans and Chinese people are numerous in Los Angeles, Orty thought they looked very alike, "OK, then I don't know."

Based on the woman's appearance, temperament, and outfit, Luke guessed she might be from Japan.

"Ding dong..."

The airport broadcast sounded, "Attention passengers bound for Los Angeles International Airport, your Delta Airlines flight DL368 is now boarding..."

Luke and Orty picked up their luggage and began to queue for boarding.

And the Asian beauty also dragged her suitcase and boarded the same plane with them.

After the Asian woman found her seat, the man next to her offered to help put her suitcase in the overhead bin.

"Thank you."

The Asian woman nodded with a smile to thank him, sitting by the window seat, taking out her phone to search for news on the Los Angeles kidnapping case...
