Fortunately, each house has its own yard, so it didn't affect the neighbors.

Afterwards…

Luke lay contentedly on the bed, his right arm around Daisy.

The oil painting robbery case linked to two other cases, the cases were quite complex, and the investigation took a long time, so Luke hadn't relaxed in a while.

This was the third time tonight.

Daisy tied up her long hair, stretching her graceful figure, "Are you going to the bathroom? I want to take a shower."

"How about we shower together?" Luke suggested.

"No, I should go to sleep. I have to work tomorrow.

I've already exhausted tomorrow's energy tonight, I don't want to deplete the day after's energy as well." Daisy said, shaking off Luke's arm and went to the bathroom.

After spending some time together, Luke and Daisy had developed a tacit understanding, respecting each other's life and work, meeting whenever they had time and helping each other with work intersections.

Both were very satisfied with this relationship.

After Daisy finished showering, Luke took a quick rinse.

Luke lit a cigarette, took a puff, and handed it to Daisy beside him. Daisy wasn't addicted to smoking, only occasionally taking a puff.

"I'm going to New York for a while, is there anything you'd like as a gift? I'll buy it for you when I come back."

Daisy put the cigarette back into Luke's mouth, her right hand applying eye cream, "Whatever New York has, Los Angeles has it too, nothing really worth buying.

But, why are you going to New York, a remote investigation?"

"No, I'm going to my father's house for the Spring Festival."

"Chinese festival?"

"Yes, it's like the Western Christmas."

"Wow, sounds nice."

"Do you want to check it out?"

"Better not, I'm not interested in festivals."

"Was Christmas not fun?"

"Same as always, a bit boring, the good part is I can openly take a few days off.

If that little girl wasn't clinging to me all day, it'd be perfect."

Seeing Daisy's lips curl up into a smile, Luke said, "Seems like you actually like her."

Daisy has a half-sister.

"She's one of the only two family members I have in this world, I have no reason to dislike her.

Plus, under my mother's guidance, she's very close to me." Daisy turned off the light, looked at Luke, "When are you leaving?"

"Are you going to see me off?"

"Of course, if I have the time."

Luke kissed her forehead, smiled, "Forget it, you're so busy with work, take any extra time to rest.

I'm heading to New York with my brother."

"OK, have a safe trip.

When you come back, I'll cook to welcome you."

Luke patted her slender waist, "It's settled then, I want oysters."

"I'm going to sleep, otherwise, I really won't wake up tomorrow."

"Good night."

"Good night."

Luke lay in bed, very tired, yet unable to sleep.

He was used to sleeping alone, having someone next to him was a bit unfamiliar.

[Congratulations to the host, successfully solving the oil painting robbery case, patrol officer shooting case, Highway 1 dumping body case, rewarded with 120 points.]

The system's voice echoed in Luke's mind.

This was the first time he received such a high point reward.

[The host performed excellently during the investigation, rewarded with a Function Card, would you like to redeem it?]

Luke smiled, having dealt with such a complex case, a high point reward was expected, but the reward of a Function Card was an unexpected joy.

Since the Detective System upgraded, Luke could now choose cards according to needs, improving the system's control, which was a good thing for Luke.

Luke's only concern was whether new feature cards would also be rewarded.

Now, receiving a Function Card reward, that concern was also alleviated.

Luke opened the system, and clicked on the unknown new card, the first exchange required 100 points, which was quite steep.

Aside from the newly obtained 120 points, Luke had previously accumulated 120 points, totaling 240 points in the system.

Luke had stored a lot of cards in the system, with no urgent need to redeem more, so he used 100 points to exchange for the Function Card.

[Shotgun Card, allows quick learning of a shotgun, usage time 3 hours.]

A shotgun, also known as a scattergun, uses gunpowder or compressed air as power, and fires projectiles in a spread, with powerful firepower and high hit rate.

King of melee, unstoppable.

David, that bastard, loved using shotguns, was fierce with them.

Luke had coveted shotguns for a long time, just hadn't had time to practice, now with the Shotgun Card, it was like getting twice the result with half the effort.

One shotgun learning card wasn't enough, Luke exchanged for two more, each card took 40 points, using up an additional 80 points.

Luke now had 60 points remaining.

This investigation used up a Bullet-Proof Card and an Accuracy Card, originally he wanted to replenish them, but the system points were running low, best to save some for emergencies.

So, he decided not to redeem more now, and wait until he had more points next time.

After another half hour, feeling a bit sleepy, Luke entered his dreams with the joy of acquiring a new card...
