Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 636: 654: Your friend's mother is a pain in the ass (3 more)

Don't think this is a joke.

Being caught by United States police, small things can indeed be spared just a few words of verbal warning, similar to being criticized for spitting sputum.

But it provoked the police, strictly enforced the law, and put him in the holding cell without any problems.

The two of them came out of the Hispanic community and watched the crowd surrounding them, sighing almost completely.

Luke first asked, "What are you sighing about? ”

Selena: “I think it's a good thing Mom and Dad chose Sachford to get an honest ranch job. I'm afraid it's hard to get a chance here! And you?”

Luke: "It does take a lot of effort to get out of this environment. What I would like to say, however, is that in the event of a riot, this is probably one of the starting areas. ”

Selena shook her head: "We can't stop that. Look at God, his old man. ”

Luke nodded in agreement.

If there is no subsequent earthquake, these little chaos will be like sludge rolled up at the bottom of the pond, gradually silencing.

So everything depends on God's mood.

By the time he gets home at night, Luke is laughing at the experience he's gained: this is a big joke.

What the hell is a thousand Experience Points for snatching small shops and household thieves in a single day!

Is there really that many potential criminals in Los Angeles? He also had a feeling of powerlessness.

When he got home, Luke didn't think too much about eating, he just stuffed the marinated stuff in the oven and stalled it on the couch.

He had plenty of strength, but his spirit was somewhat exhausted by those strange torments.

Luckily, Claire would have gone home a long time ago, pulled him into a squeaky chat, and Luke would have just told her these quirks as a joke.

Claire laughed and made Luke happy.

Sometimes it brings happiness to one's family and friends, and it's nothing strange to meet them.

Luke also told the news that he saw today, and Claire had a strange face: "No. How come I didn't see the news? ”

Luke was stunned: "No? ”

Claire shook her head decisively and thought, "By the way, I met a friend when I was at the national high school cheerleading competition, and she seemed to say she was going to San Francisco, and I asked her. ”

Luke: “If she was an average family, she probably wouldn't hear much. ”

Claire took out her phone, looked for the number, and said, “Her mom's boyfriend is the president of a big company in San Francisco, the rich one. ”

Luke:... your friend's mom is so annoying!

Claire said a few words and hung up: “She said she didn't hear about it, her mom's boyfriend is going to San Francisco tomorrow, and she's going on a plane with her. Unfortunately, I have to get acquainted with Los Angeles. ”

Luke could only interrupt her fantasy: “If it wasn't for the earthquake, you'd be fine for a few days, but don't go now. ”

Claire's face was solemnly raised.

She knows Luke well. He never jokes about business.

Even on Fool's Day every year, his jokes are harmless and pure business.

“Should I remind her and her future stepfather not to go to San Francisco?” Claire hesitated.

This interference with other people's private itineraries is taboo.

But San Francisco is really going to have an earthquake, and she's just watching her friends go into danger?

Luke raised his hand and grabbed the tablet: “Wait till I find out about the guy on the noon TV. ”

He quickly entered the information on the tablet from Caltech, Lawrence Hayes.

When he watched it for a moment, his face grew stiff: “The man on television is a professor at Caltech who has been working on seismic research and is said to have made some progress in seismic forecasting in recent years, with a limited prediction of a small number of earthquakes. ”

Claire thought, "Is his prediction accurate or inaccurate? ”

Luke: "It's definitely not that accurate, otherwise he should be the world's top expert, and I don't need to look into his information. But he also has a chance to do what he says. ”

Claire tangled, “Shall I call Blake? ”

Luke frowned and raised his hand again: "I spoke to the professor. ”

This time, he got up and walked to the backyard and said he'd only come back for a while.

Claire: “What do you say? ”

Luke: “Better tell your friend not to go to San Francisco, and not to stay in a high-rise building in LA. Well, so are you. If possible, stay out of downtown and high-rise buildings for the next few days. ”

Claire: "Is it true what the professor said? ”

Luke shook his head: “I was just asking him how sure he was of this prediction, and he said there was a 90 percent chance of a more advanced number of earthquakes. ”

Claire wondered, "You believe him? ”

Luke glanced at her: "Because I said, as long as his prediction was accurate, whether it happened or not, I would donate a fortune to his earthquake research project. ”

Claire: … well, money does solve a lot of problems.

There's no one on Luke's side to call.

Just called Ginny and told her about a possible earthquake and kept her honest in a low-lying building recently.

Ginny asked in surprise and realized that Luke's source was uncertain and could not be propagated.

It's hard to tell whether it's a rumor or or a good reminder to spread the word.

In many cases, it is better to know in advance the consequences of disasters.

The magnitude of a catastrophic message can change from the original to the last million, or even 10,000, and small events can cause havoc.

One of Luke's last relatives bought iodized salt for a decade. - He was better that time, he could go on buying salt after two years of eating.

So, this uncertain message can't be passed on.

Claire still called her friend Blake, but from the look on her face, it didn't seem to turn out so well.

Luke hugged her and comforted her: “This is just uncertain news, you just have to do your best. ”

Claire nodded depressingly, silently.

Luke continued, "If an earthquake does happen, try not to go out there when you're sure it's safe. ”

His house is a bungalow, surrounded by dozens of metres, without tall trees and poles, and it is indeed the safest place in the earthquake.

Claire helpless: "Didn't you say it was just speculation? ”

Luke slapped her in the head: "I can't handle anyone else, but I can handle you, who told you to be my sister. ”

Claire can't refute it.

At night, Luke went out again for a stroll and came back before 3: 00 a.m.

There was little to go out this time.

Yesterday's bugging in the houses of a few well-informed gang bosses yielded little, and everyone was discussing the chaos caused by today's earthquake.

And there's very little news of Luke's most concerned foreign fatalities.
