Chapter 24 Short of Money
When Shelley saw someone willing to take over his case, he also recommended: "Detective, it's better for newcomers to practice on such a small case. This, this... this kid's ability is still very good."
When Thomas saw that Captain Shelley didn't know his name, he thought of introducing himself to the detective.
But before he could speak, Luke said: "Should your name be Wallis Thomas?"
Thomas didn't expect the detective to be able to say his full name.
As a newly hired rookie, Thomas immediately stood upright because he could be remembered by his immediate boss and felt valued.
He said loudly: "Yes, Inspector. My name is Wallis Thomas, a student of the 135th batch of the Imperial Academy of Intelligence, with a graduation score of 689.
Internship at Imperial Fort Sausial on February 4, 2646 of the Century Calendar.
On March 9, 2647 in the century calendar, he was transferred to the Nutao City Haijiao District Secret Intelligence Bureau to take charge of office service work."
Luke had already found some information about Thomas on his mobile phone.
There are not many early records about Thomas.
But being able to graduate from the Imperial Intelligence Academy with a score of nearly 700 points shows that Thomas was very good in the early stages.
However, his background is too low, otherwise it would not be the turn of the Haijiao District Secret Intelligence Bureau to take such a big advantage.
Luke patted Thomas on the shoulder and said: "I am also a graduate of the Imperial Academy of Intelligence. You are my junior in terms of qualifications. I admire your drive to fight for opportunities when you have the opportunity, which is to my liking.
I’ll leave this case to you, let me see what the top students from the Royal Intelligence Academy are capable of.”
Thomas didn't expect the detective to be so approachable. Not only did he really give this case to him, a newcomer, but he also accepted him as his apprentice.
This honor and treatment made Thomas excitedly say: "Detective, please rest assured, I will never embarrass the Royal Intelligence College."
"Do a good job, I'm optimistic about you!"
Luke didn't waste too much time on Thomas. After all, times make heroes. I wonder if he can become the "Hush" in the future with his own interference.
But his "dare" energy makes Luke very optimistic about Thomas' future.
Opportunities always come to those who are prepared and will fight for them.
You can train and train.
After receiving the mission, Thomas went to Hilm to learn about her son's situation. Shelley seemed to have thought of something and escaped under the pretext of being a coder to support the Crazy Ax Party at night.
Luke returned to the office alone.
Confidential secretary Kylena brought him a cup of coffee and placed a stack of documents on the table.
"Detective, these are the backlog of documents that need to be signed by you before you took office. This one needs to be stamped by you immediately to take effect..."
"What is this? Are you in such a hurry?"
Kylena explained: "Inspector, before you took office, the work of our Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau was under the command of the Central Bureau. Now that you have taken office, the command authority will naturally be transferred back.
This is your seal, which was found from the corpse of 'Envelope'."
Kylena placed a seal on the table, along with some other fragmentary items, all belonging to the "former" detective.
Luke briefly looked at the command transfer document, then picked up the seal and stamped the "Meteor" mark on it.
"Has the body been disposed of?"
"It has been incinerated." Kylena pulled out a letter from the file and said: "This is a circular letter just sent from the city hall. It requires us to find the stolen red dragon Neil Colon from the City Alchemist Association as soon as possible.
heart'."
Luke picked up the circular, looked at it, and asked: "The City Alchemists Association has been stolen. Shouldn't it be under the supervision of the Public Security Bureau? What does it have to do with our Secret Intelligence Service?"
And even if we ask the Secret Intelligence Bureau to assist, it is still the Central Bureau’s business, why should we, the Cape District Bureau, be blamed.”
Kylena explained: "Detective, the central bureau said that the thief who stole the 'Heart of Red Dragon Neil Colon' disappeared after entering our Cape District. They also said that this alchemy item is related to the Dragon Kingdom. If the Red Dragon
Neil Colon is being used, which is very likely to cause a diplomatic incident.
The city hall gave us the task of finding this alchemy item. If we can't find it in time, it will affect the city hall's financial allocation to us.
Captain Black Mamba has been in charge of this case..."
No wonder Shelley ran so fast. He wanted to pass the case to the detective.
The heart of the red dragon Nirkoron is in the clear sky space backpack.
If you pay, you will definitely not pay.
As for the diplomatic incident mentioned by the Central Bureau...
The Dragon Kingdom is just a map where giant dragons gather. There is no political system that represents the Dragon Kingdom. How can there be any diplomacy?
Since the red dragon Neil Colon, greedy for money, signed a summoning agreement with the Alchemist Association of Raging Waves City, both parties will automatically bear the risks brought by this agreement.
Life and death have destiny, wealth and honor are in heaven.
The excuse given by the Central Bureau is purely to shirk responsibility and find fault.
However, the City Hall's money deduction measure has indeed choked the lifeline of the Haijiao District Secret Intelligence Bureau.
Poor!
Luke looked through other documents, and applications and reimbursements for various expenses accounted for a large part.
After the Crazy Ax Party was "slaughtered" by Qingkong, the already poor Haijiao District Secret Intelligence Bureau was even worse.
"Okay, I understand this... you can go back to work first, and I will take a closer look at these documents."
"Yes, Detective."
Kylena leaves the office.
Luke was thinking about getting some money from somewhere. Only by being independent in wealth can he not be controlled by outsiders.
Only when you have money can you build your own "rabbit nest".
Luke looked through the strategies on his phone, looking for quick money-making projects.
There are many strategies to make money, but water from afar cannot quench the thirst for nearness.
Either the distance is too far, or the time is too far.
The one that is close in distance and time is... the Clover Airship Heist.
The people who caused the heist of the Clover armed airship were the pirates led by Mrs. Tasia of Fishbone Island. Not only did they steal ten tons of gold, they also kidnapped more than a dozen high-ranking people from Raging Waves City on the airship.
The subsequent rescue of this batch of gold and meat tickets unfolded a very exciting and complicated story.
It can be regarded as a very brilliant plot that happened in the area of Raging Wave City in the early era of the era.
It's just that now that Mrs. Tasia doesn't have the "heart of the Red Dragon Neal Colon", does she still dare to pay attention to the Clover armed airship?
Luke spent the afternoon watching the plot of the Clover Airship Heist over and over again.
Mrs. Tasia was very well prepared for this robbery, and not only prepared a "Heart of the Red Dragon Nircolon".
Attack, board, rob, retreat.
Time, place, people, cooperation.
It all shows that there is an extremely thorough plan behind this, and it will not be given up just because there is no alchemy item.
And...even if Mrs. Tasia wants to give up, Luke will not let her give up.
