Chapter 761: The Righteous Luke Isn’t Afraid

When they got the answer, it was so simple that neither Luke nor Selina quite believed it.

After confirming it several times, he also injected the twins with the inducer, but the results were the same.

After two hours of questioning, he finally came out of the bungalow.

In the car, Selina immediately drove off.

After a brief silence, she said, “Did we… go overboard?”

Luke said, “If they hadn’t contacted Claire and had just approached us, I would admit that I went overboard.”

Selina was lost for words.

Touching Luke’s family would definitely piss him off.

The Carlos family had been wiped out after a surprise attack.

In comparison, the three girls had only been injected with an inducer and pumped for information. They weren’t even hurt.

This wasn’t too much.

Luke didn’t blame Selina for being soft-hearted.

She didn’t have a system, so she could only rely on her own judgment to differentiate between good and bad.

The system, however, had helped Luke stabilize his worldview.

He wouldn’t go easy on anyone who threatened his safety.

However, the three girls indeed hadn’t committed any huge crime.

They had only been attracted by the hundred million-dollar reward on TV when they tried to break a prisoner out.

They had never considered what Alex Montell had done.

Luke believed that they would learn a lot from this lesson.

They felt that they could do whatever they wanted with superpowers, and that the doors to the prison and various research institutes would open to them.

After failing to rescue the prisoner and escaping from the police department, the twins wanted to leave, but they couldn’t resist Stacy’s insistence.

Of the three of them, the one in charge was Stacy.

Although her direct combat ability wasn’t the best, her overall combat ability and practical nature still far exceeded that of the twins’.

More than half of her ten Basic abilities were combat-related, while the rest were support abilities. They were all obtained through Elementary Replication.

Simply put, Stacy’s Elementary Replication ability was similar to Luke’s super learning mode, but also slightly different.

Basic Replication was already a huge cheat in being able to completely copy someone else’s appearance, but it had a lot of side effects.

By using Elementary Replication to touch a target’s body, their genetic information and memories could be obtained.

The longer the interaction, the more complete the memories would be until the copy was practically the person themselves.

But that was also the side effect of this ability.

The more thorough the replication, the deeper the influence that the target’s memories would have, which would lead to a more unstable mental state; this was equivalent to the appearance of multiple personalities.

Stacy had used this ability many times, and there were few targets that she had copied deeply, but she was still greatly affected by it. Her personality had also changed from lively and cheerful to irritable and sensitive.

Last time, Luke had foiled their plan to break Alex out and had caught the twins and placed them in custody, which complicated her feelings for Luke.

She had a few personalities who were fond of appearances, and she liked Luke’s sunny and handsome appearance.

There were a few personalities who were petty and angry, and couldn’t forgive him for ruining their plan to make money.

Either way, she was unwilling to admit defeat and leave.

After a struggle, she made an irrational choice: stay in Los Angeles and make trouble for Luke.

But when all was said and done, the three girls weren’t ruthless people.

Their plan for revenge was to collect evidence of Luke’s corruption and then make it public so that he lost his job.

Using her ability to change appearances, Stacy looked around for evidence of Luke pocketing dirty money.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely go crazy from anger.

But a straight body did not fear a slanted shadow.

As the cleanest and most promising young detective in Los Angeles, he had never been corrupt, and certainly wasn’t afraid of being investigated.

Naturally, there was no progress in Stacy’s investigation.

At first, she tried making direct contact with Luke.

Elementary Replication required physical contact, and it couldn’t be for too short a period of time.

But Luke had always kept his distance from people. He liked to wear homemade gloves when he worked, and shaking hands wasn’t an option.

It was even more impossible to bump into him.

Stacy had assumed different identities and pretended to slip and fall nearby, thus seizing the opportunity to knock into Luke, but Luke always swiftly stretched out a hand to stop her.

And if she didn’t bump into him, she… really fell.

She had no choice but to give up when it came to someone as difficult to handle as Luke.

After many twists and turns, she finally found out that Luke often came to the police academy to visit his sister, Claire, who was training there.

As for the real Clarice, something had happened at home recently, and she left school right away.

So, Stacy replaced Clarice and wanted to see if there were any leads in Claire’s memories, only to find that she couldn’t access them.

At that moment, Luke and Selina appeared at the party, and she went to look for Luke.

Dancing was the perfect opportunity to touch his body.

As a matter of fact, Luke hadn’t been wearing gloves that night. She was delighted when she shook his hand.

But before she could celebrate, she realized that she couldn’t read Luke’s memories either.

Recalling how she couldn’t read Claire’s memories, she could only speculate that there was something special about Luke’s family.

She immediately switched targets to Selina.

A detective was even closer to his partner than his wife. She also knew that Selina and Luke lived together.

There was definitely something fishy going on.

But Luke didn’t give her the chance. He dragged her out to dance.

When she investigated Luke, she had checked the police department’s internal files and learned that the guy had an astonishing success rate when it came to cracking cases and unbelievable combat ability, which was why he had been able to catch the twins so easily that night.

Not daring to rouse his suspicion, Stacy could only retreat.

The next day, Claire came to the police academy to sort out the administrative procedure for leaving school. Stacy went up to Claire and asked her a few questions before she finally decided to go deep into the tiger’s den to look for intelligence.

Luke did have a lot of secrets, but he carried everything that couldn’t be exposed in his inventory.

The smart access system let Stacy, in the guise of Luke, in easily.

But before she could find any evidence, Luke suddenly returned home and blocked her escape.

That was the whole story.

After mulling for a moment, Luke suddenly felt a little ashamed. It seemed… he was more of a lawbreaker than they were?

None of the three girls had killed anyone before. They had also duped and blackmailed rich men who wanted to mess around with young girls.

Most of them could only swallow their pride when faced with the physically strong and skillful Stacy.

Since Stacy never used her own face, it was hard for these men to find her.

After blackmailing these sort of people once in a while, they would decisively abandon this operation.

If the other party refused to let them go and lurked nearby, the twins, who never showed their faces, would secretly attack.
