Chapter 1367: What Do You See In Her?

But Luke wasnt done yet.

He took out two business cards and gave them to her. Your information is very useful, but you should have sensed that it isnt safe in the sewers. Heres my private number, and the contact information for a community foundation. Its hiring office and community workers, and it provides accommodation.

A little ashamed, Skye reached out to give everything back. No, youve given me enough. I cant take that. Ill find a job and move out.

Luke put his hands on her shoulders and said solemnly, Skye, Im a detective, and my partner is an awesome character who has worked for eight years.

Skye: Huh?

A certain awesome character: (* )

Luke said, So, do you think we cant tell that youre not eighteen yet?

Skye panicked, but Lukes hands were on her shoulders.

Luke said, Alright, were police officers. Theres no need to call the police; we can take you back to the police department ourselves.

Skye lowered her head in embarra.s.sment, but couldnt help but slant a look at him.

Luke said, My request is very simple: Move out, go to the community foundation and do as much as youre able to; that will get you through this period of time at least.

Skye couldnt help but say in a low voice, But I ran away from a foster home.

When she said that, she observed Luke and Selina, only to see that they were both calm.

What Skye didnt know was that the moment she entered the diner, the sungla.s.ses had scanned her and Little Snail had found her profile in less than two minutes.

Luke said, Ill solve that problem for you as soon as possible. What do you need to do now?

Skye: Move out and find work with the community foundation.

Satisfied, Luke let go and patted her head with a smile. Good girl! Go. You have to move out before tonight.

Skye nodded subconsciously and turned around to leave.

After taking two steps, she suddenly came back to herself and turned around. Um, thanks, Luke.

Luke waved at her to hurry up.

Watching the girl run off, Selina approached him and chuckled. What do you see in her?

As she spoke, she subconsciously looked at her chest.

Although the girl was a little thin, she was quite attractive.

Luke put his hand on her shoulder and said, Lets talk in the car.

Selina was surprised.

Luke didnt want to talk about it on the street. The Skye girl probably wasnt that simple, but he really couldnt tell what super abilities she had.

After they got into the car, Luke said, Little Snail, show Selina the information thats on Skyes computer.

There was a brief silence in the car, before Selina exclaimed, What? A high school dropout whos a hacker? Dont tell me shes that sort of kid genius who knows how to type as soon as they touch a computer?

Luke rolled his eyes. Thats even rarer than a toddler who knows how to type. Shes not very good at hacking, but its not hard for her to make some money from it.

Selina was confused. Then why is she in the sewers?

As soon as she said that, she slapped her forehead. Im an idiot. Shes from a foster home and isnt an adult yet; it would be hard for her to find a proper job. Hm, but it shouldnt be a problem to make some money as a hacker, right?

Luke said, Thats not her intent. Also, look at the sort of information shes collecting.

Selina looked at it again and suddenly laughed. So, shes Batmans little fan. No wonder you have such a good att.i.tude toward her.

Luke said, What Im interested in is her talent, okay?

Selina turned an incredibly contemptuous look on him.

Luke chuckled. Of course, her genes are a little interesting. I plan to study them.

Selina asked, Superpower?

Luke said helplessly, Can you not think its superpowers all the time? Cant it be Hm, lets call it an immunity. Although its rare, its not very useful. As for the specifics, if youre planning to study genetics, I can give you this research a.s.signment.

Selina decisively refused. Go play by yourself. I dont want to be a nerd.

She knew what her hobbies and talents were, and they definitely didnt include research, let alone studying genetics.

Even Luke himself admitted that genetics was a bit of a struggle for him. The only reason he pushed himself to study it was for their personal health checkups.

Selina was self-aware and wouldnt waste her energy on such a thankless task.

Besides, she already had a lot of training and cla.s.ses; she really didnt have time to add gene research to that.

Changing the topic, she asked, Then why arent you helping her move?

Luke shook his head. Shes too wary and proud. This is our first time meeting her. If were too enthusiastic, she might misunderstand.

Selina snorted. Its fine. If you can handle a middle-aged waitress with a smile, a little girl is no problem.

Luke chuckled. Hehe.

People were different.

A pretty girl who could resist Pheromone Control was definitely rarer than a middle-aged waitress.

He wasnt a saint; naturally, he would pay more attention to Skye.

Besides, he had already met a really fierce waitress whom he had to give more attention to.

After a while, Selina got down to business. What about that sewer? Are we coming back tonight?

Luke hummed and said, Safety first. Besides, I really dont want to go in wearing this. It stinks.

Selina nodded. Same.

The sewers were both smelly and dirty.

Luke had long taken this into account when designing their armor. After all, a man who didnt crawl through the sewers wasnt a good Batman.

The armor had an internal circulation system to provide oxygen and prevent them from breathing in any toxic gases.

Secondly, the armor itself didnt stain easily, and could be cleaned up quickly.

This was for security reasons.

If Batman and Black Cat came out smelling bad, everybody would know that they had been in the sewers.

Someone might set up traps in the sewers to deal with them.

Also, it was easy to leave traces of the smell behind, thus exposing their movements.

Not only would wearing the armor make it easier to explore the sewer quickly, Luke could also continue to upgrade his schematic layout of New Yorks sewers.

At eight in the evening, the sky finally turned dark. Luke, Selina and the dog put on their armor and set off.

On the way to Brooklyn, Selina couldnt help but ask, The girl hasnt called yet?

Luke frowned. No. The community foundation hasnt received any word from her either.

Selina asked, Did she forget the time when she was surfing the Internet in the sewer? Gold Nugget often does that.

Gold Nugget whined.

Selina said, Im talking about going online and forgetting the time, not talking about you surfing the Internet in the sewers.

Gold Nugget:

Oh.

Luke:

Sure enough, the two of you are a match made in heaven.
