Los Angeles Detective Chapter 155

  Chapter 155 Identity (big chapter)

   "So that blue-haired kid is also investigating me?" Luke thought for a while and shook his head. "It shouldn't be him. If he had the brains, he wouldn't do such a stupid thing as stealing a police Harley."

  Daisy smiled, "I don't think it's him either, maybe it's his lawyer, or maybe his father."

  Luke asked Matthew to investigate the father of the thief Cabin Portia. His father was the vice principal of a private middle school. Ironically, he didn't even teach his own son well.

   "Have you met his father?"

   "No, but I have inquired about the lawyer Avery Bruce, he only litigates for the rich and well-known, and he and Cabin Portia are completely in two circles.

  I guess it is probably Cabin Portia's father who came forward to hire a lawyer. "

  Luke asked curiously, "What is their purpose of investigating me?"

   "It is a very common method to fully understand the situation of the other party's client, find out the weaknesses and needs of the other party, and then decide whether to go to court or settle. You don't have to worry too much."

   “Is this normal practice in your legal profession?”

   "It depends."

   "Is there anything I can do?"

   "Come with me for the next out-of-court settlement, and then just sit back and wait for the money to be collected."

   "Sounds good." Luke smiled, "How do you know that the other party will definitely settle out of court?"

   "From my experience, this possibility is extremely high." Daisy said, "Carbin Portia's father is the vice principal of a private middle school, and parents of students spend a lot of money to send their children to private middle schools.

   What would they think if they found out that the vice-principal of the school couldn't even teach his own son?

  What impact will it have on the reputation of the middle school?

  If I were Cabin Portia's father, I must find a way to calm the impact of this matter. "

  Luke also felt that Daisy's conjecture was reasonable, so he was relieved to leave the matter to her.

   In terms of compensation, Luke doesn't want to back down. You sent detectives to investigate me, so why should I be polite to you.

   As a policeman, Luke is disgusted by things like that.

  After dinner, Luke placed an order on the sea fishing website and reserved a small yacht.

  Early the next morning, Luke drove to Maria del Rey Pier, the largest private dock in the world and the closest to downtown Los Angeles.

  Xiao Hei also went with Luke. He originally made an appointment with David and Raymond, but both of them have troubles.

  Luke feels that these two guys are blind in Los Angeles.

   There are also regulations for sea fishing in Los Angeles. Before departure, you must buy a fishing license on the pier, one per person, $15 a day.

  There are two fishing rods on board, and neither Luke nor Xiao Hei brought their own fishing gear.

  The most important thing is to be accompanied by a senior captain. Luke will learn sea fishing and sailing from him. Tips are definitely indispensable, starting at $100.

  Everything is ready, the two set foot on the yacht.

  The captain of the yacht is Tom Du. Well, he is actually Tom Du. He is a Chinese guy who looks to be in his thirties. He is very dark, with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

  The little brother whose ancestral home comes from HLJ.

   The reason why he met a Chinese captain was not chosen by Luke, but the market demand.

  Many Chinese tourists come to Los Angeles and want to experience sea fishing, so the number of Chinese captains will naturally be more.

  It is the same as Chinese tour guides.

  Luke followed him into the cab and talked about wanting to learn how to yacht.

  Tom readily agreed. There are quite a few customers with similar requirements to Luke. Anyway, the other party chartered the boat and provided the service himself.

   Moreover, Luke and the others are willing to charter a small yacht, which is definitely not bad for money. As long as the customers are satisfied, they can also earn more tips.

   This is the most important thing to him.

   Soon the two sides started the teaching mode.

  There are no relevant study cards this time, but Luke also learns quickly.

  Because this thing is really not difficult, it is easier than learning to drive.

   There are several subjects in the driver's license test, but there are only two subjects in yachting, theory and practical operation.

  Just remember the functions of the cab buttons, and you can drive without worrying about traffic lights, let alone hitting people.

  Tom has demonstrated it several times, and Luke has already learned it. He started to drive the yacht to face the wind and waves, and drove dozens of nautical miles before stopping the boat for fishing.

  Tom reminded Luke that if he wants to drive a yacht alone for sea fishing in the future, he still needs to take a driving license test, which is not expensive and very convenient.

   Subsequently, Tom began to teach Luke and Xiao Hei sea fishing.

  There is a big difference between fishing on the sea and fishing on the shore. Tom said a lot of precautions, and Luke also humbly learned.

   Such as the species and habits of fish.

  Sea fishing line should be thicker, with a diameter of more than 0.5 mm and a line length of 60 to 70 meters.

  Of course, apart from skill, a large part of fishing also depends on luck.

  If you can actually catch a big tuna, Luke will send it.

  He had fishing experience before, and after catching a few fish, he quickly figured out the sea fishing routine.

   There are also many harvests, such as lobster, crab, flounder, grouper, etc.

  Xiao Hei didn't gain much.

   At noon, the three had dinner on the yacht.

  Tom simply processed the caught seafood, steamed or boiled or directly sliced ​​sashimi to eat, and made a whole fish feast.

   At this time, don't be polite, just open your belly and eat.

  Because according to the law, each person can only take away up to ten sea catches.

  After the sea fishing was over, Luke drove the yacht back to the pier.

   Today's harvest is still very big. Luke learned how to drive a yacht and sea fishing, and caught more than a dozen fish. He evened it with Xiao Hei.

   Before leaving, he paid Tom a tip of two hundred dollars.

  Of course, this is also a one-shot deal, and next time Luke can drive a yacht to sea by himself.

  Luke refrigerated the sea catch in a box with ice and moved it into the trunk of the car.

   Luke closes the trunk, "Man, it's time to go home."

  Xiao Hei didn't respond.

  Luke sighed, "Give you a chance, buy me a drink at the bar."

  Xiao Hei said subconsciously, "Why did you ask me to invite you?"

   "OK, let's go back to our respective houses."

   "Wait, let's have a drink." Xiao Hei added, "I'm treating you."

  Driving to the bar, Luke asked casually, "What's on your mind?"

   "Is it obvious?"

   "I haven't talked nonsense all day, which makes me a little unaccustomed."

  Xiao Hei raised his eyebrows, "Don't you like me talking nonsense?"

   "I didn't say I didn't like it." Luke shook his head. Investigating cases is a boring job, and sometimes it can be quite depressing. Listening to Xiao Hei's nonsense can mediate the atmosphere to a certain extent.

   "Then you interrupt me every time."

   "If I don't interrupt, let's talk nonsense together, can we still investigate the case?"

  Xiao Hei smiled, and soon his smile subsided, "Dude, I'm in big trouble."

   When we arrived at the bar, Luke asked in detail, "What's wrong?"

   "Julian."

  Luke took a sip of his wine, feeling a little dissatisfied, "Don't jump out word by word, what's the matter?"

  Xiao Hei drank the wine in the glass and fell into memory.

  【Eight o'clock last night.

  A luxurious western restaurant.

  Xiao Hei led Julian into the restaurant, and was led by the waiter to the pre-booked table.

  Xiao Hei kindly helped Julian open the chair.

  Julian looked at the environment of the restaurant, "Wow...this seems to be a Michelin restaurant, I've heard of it before."

"How do you like it?"

  Julian asked in a low voice, "Will it be expensive?"

   "Baby, I have money, and I am happy to spend any amount of money for you."

  Julian looked at Xiao Hei affectionately.

  The dishes were served quickly. Looking at the exquisite dishes and the other guests around, Julian looked at his long gray dress, feeling a little uneasy.

   "Is it inappropriate for me to wear this today?"

   "No, you are so beautiful, you are the only one in my eyes, and I can't tolerate other people."

   "Are you serious?"

"Of course."

   "Marcus, I love you."

   “Baby, I love you too.”

  Julian grabbed Xiao Hei's right hand, "Let's get married."

   "What?" Xiao Hei's face was full of question marks.

  Julian said seriously, "Let's get married and build a family of our own."

   "Julian...you...how come you have such an idea all of a sudden?"

   "I know it might be a bit sudden, we haven't known each other for a long time, but we are so suitable, I love you, and you love me, so why don't you get married?"

   "Uh..." Xiao Hei was stunned, and then forced a smile, "Haha... I was almost fooled by you."

   "Marcus, I'm not kidding, I'm serious."

  Xiao Hei's palms were already wet, his legs were shaking violently, "I think...is it too fast?"

   "You don't want to marry me?"

  "No, it's not that I don't want to... I just feel that it's too hasty. I should be the one to propose to you, right?

  I don't want to be too hasty... I want to prepare a different proposal scene for you. "

   "I don't need it, as long as you are by my side is enough."

  Xiao Hei "..."]

   After describing this, Xiao Hei covered his face with an expression of pain.

   "Why do you do this to me, why do you force me, isn't it good to fall in love? Why do you want to get married?"

  Luke was also a little surprised, "It seems that Julian really likes you."

   "I also like her very much, we are very compatible, but this does not mean that we must get married."

  Luke asked back, "Honestly, don't you want to marry her?"

   "It's not that I don't want to marry her, it's that I don't want to marry anyone. I'm only twenty-six years old this year, and I haven't enjoyed my single life yet.

   Married at the age of twenty-six.

   I even bought Karma's, is this plausible?

I can not accept. "

"What do you want?"

   "I don't know, I don't even know how to face her, this is crazy, isn't it?" Xiao Hei sighed.

  In Luke's impression, black Americans generally get married earlier.

  Of course, it can also be said that they are more casual and don't take marriage seriously. Xiao Hei is not the same as them.

  Although Xiao Hei is also fickle, she is relatively responsible, and will be more cautious about getting married.

  Luke has been listening to Xiao Hei complaining, but he didn't give any advice.

   This kind of matter has to be resolved by the parties themselves.

  Because no matter how you choose, you will regret it later, Luke can't make decisions for others.

  Los Angeles Courthouse.

  America is a country with a large number of lawsuits. In this society where everyone talks about the law, there are so many cases that judges can't handle it even if they have three heads and six arms.

   Moreover, the litigation and lawyer fees are extremely high, and the lawsuit may not be completed, and the company has gone bankrupt just by paying the lawyer fees.

  So, out-of-court settlement is a very important solution, and most civil cases will be settled before going to court.

  The method of reconciliation is also very simple. A lawyer or lawyers for both parties or a retired judge will help mediate.

   If the parties cannot reach an agreement, the conversation cannot be made public or used in court.

   After the two parties have negotiated and signed, the content of the negotiation can be made public and submitted to the judge for confirmation to take effect.

  At ten o'clock in the morning, Luke and Daisy rushed to the court and met in a conference room designated by the judge.

   There were three people present from the other party, Cabin Portia, lawyer Avery Bruce, and a middle-aged man who looked very similar to Cabin Portia.

  Luke sized up the three of them, and his eyes fell on Cabin Portia, "Boy, your new hairstyle is not bad."

  Carbin Portia gave a middle finger.

  Luke smiled, "You are still so polite, I am so relieved for your parents."

  Attorney Avery interrupted, "Hey, don't provoke my client. We are here to settle out of court, not to cause trouble. Attorney Daisy, I hope your client will also show some sincerity."

  Daisy said, "You should know that my client is a policeman, and his work is very busy. He has shown enough sincerity to come to the mediation site today.

   In addition, congratulations to your client for successfully bailing. "

Lawyer Avery was used to this kind of verbal confrontation, and his expression didn't change much. He opened the file and said, "My client deeply apologizes for the car theft incident, and immediately participated in out-of-court settlement after being released on bail. He has deeply realized It was my own mistake, but due to capacity reasons, I cannot pay the $40,000 economic compensation you proposed, and I hope the two parties can discuss a reasonable amount of compensation."

  Daisy said, "Your client spent 12,000 US dollars to modify my client's Harley without authorization, which is enough to show that he has strong financial capabilities. The so-called 'incompetence' seems to me more like a problem of attitude.

  In our client's opinion, money is not the most important thing, but attitude is.

  We can't feel his sincerity, so what's the point of reaching an out-of-court settlement?

   Moreover, I would like to ask your client, did you think about my client's feelings when spending huge sums of money to refit Harley, and did you ever worry about your own financial ability?

   If not, I don't think it's a problem, but an excuse. "

  Carbin Portia showed an angry look, "You are simply vampires, the total price of his Harley is only 20,000 US dollars, how dare you ask for 40,000 US dollars in compensation, enough to buy two brand new Harleys.

   You are extorting in the name of the law. "

   Cabin Portia wanted to say more, but was stopped by his lawyer.

   "Although my client was a little excited, he was right. The amount of compensation you want is indeed unreasonable, far exceeding the value of Harley itself."

  Daisy shook her head, "Not everything can be measured by money.

That Harley is my client's favorite thing. It has been with him for a long time and spent a lot of good time with my client. It is not just a vehicle, but more like my client's friends and family . In my client's heart, it is alive, and using money to measure its value is not only an insult to it, but also an insult to my client. "

  Luke echoed with a soft sigh, "Yes, you changed my Harley beyond recognition, which made me emotionally unacceptable and created a distance in my mind.

  Many of our great memories... are hard to get back, and that's my biggest loss. Luke pointed to his head, "My spirit has also been traumatized, you should reflect and repent more deeply instead of questioning me the other way around. "

  Carbin Portia gritted his teeth, suppressing his anger, "I've heard enough of your hypocritical lies, what you say is high-sounding, what good memories, spiritual loss, after all, it's not money.

  I won't give it to you.

  If you can't accept Harley's modification, I can pay someone to restore it to its original appearance, ensuring that it's exactly the same as you remember. Does that mean you don't need to pay compensation? "

  Daisy retorted, "Once some things happen, they can't be changed. If you spill water on the ground, even if you collect it again, it's still sewage.

  If you go to the hospital for plastic surgery, but you are not satisfied with the effect of plastic surgery, ask the hospital for compensation.

  The hospital promised to perform another operation on you to restore your original appearance. Would you believe it? Will you agree?

Totally impossible. "

  Carbin Portia glared at Luke, "OK, then there's no need to talk, let's see you in court.

   I'd rather give my money to a lawyer than to you bastard. "

  Luke smiled, "Attorney Avery, your client is really caring, I believe your relationship must be very good."

"Jingle Bell…"

  The phone rang for a while.

  The owner of the mobile phone is Cabin Portia's father.

  Although he came together, he never said a word, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

   "Sorry, I'm going to answer the phone." After Carbin's father finished speaking, he quickly left the conference room.

   "Principal, are you okay?"

   "Vice Principal Portia, where are you now?"

   "Uh...I'm outside, dealing with some personal matters."

   "You won't be in court, will you?"

  Carbin Portia was stunned for a while, then asked, "How do you know?"

   "My dear, are you really in court? Is your son really arrested for theft?"

   "Principal, it's not what you think. This matter is a bit complicated. Carbin is a good boy, but he is still a little immature in handling things."

   "Vice Principal Portia, I don't want to take care of your family affairs, but I don't want this matter to affect the school's reputation."

   "No, I promise."

   "If your guarantee is valid, this matter will not be in the news, you can go online and see for yourself.

  You'd better calm down this matter as soon as possible, I'm doing it for your own good..."

   "I know, it is being resolved, and it will subside as soon as possible."

   "I'm waiting for your news."

  Hung up the phone, and Cabin Portia's father returned to the conference room.

   At this time, Carbin Portia and the lawyer also stood up and made a gesture to leave.

   Cabin Portia's father asked, "Where are you going?"

  Carbin Portia replied, "Dad, I don't think they have the sincerity to negotiate, and the compensation amount is simply unreasonable. I would rather go to court than be blackmailed by this bastard."

   "You are the bastard." Vice Principal Portia pointed at his son, "Sit back and don't say a word."

  Vice Principal Portia looked at Luke aside, "Sorry, I'm the father who didn't educate well, and I apologize to you on behalf of Carbin.

  Plus, we are willing to pay the compensation amount, if there is no problem, I hope the settlement can be signed by now. "

   Luke was a little surprised and looked at Daisy beside him.

  Daisy looked at Vice Principal Portia, then at his son and said, "If Cabin Portia is okay, we can do it anytime."

  Vice Principal Portia said, "Carbin, go and sign."

   "No, they are blackmailing, I'd rather feed the money to the dogs than give them."

  Vice Principal Portia whispered, "Lawyer Avery, thank you for your efforts, but obviously...some people are not worthy of your services.

  I think we should go. "

   "You're right." Avery didn't understand why Vice Principal Portia made such a big change, but he knew who was paying the legal fees, and that was enough.

   "Dad, you can't leave me alone."

   "After signing the settlement agreement, I will help you pay.

   Of course, you are an adult and have the right and freedom to choose, but I will not pay for your freedom, understand? "

  Carbin Portia was completely confused, and shouted in great frustration, "Damn it, how could you treat me like this? Have you forgotten how you promised my mother?"

   "I just promised your mother too many times that you will become like this? I have never seen such a stupid person to steal a police car for a female murderer, let alone imagine that it is my son.

  If you don't listen to me this time, I won't take care of your affairs in the future.

  I mean what I say. "

  After Vice Principal Portia finished speaking, he left without looking back.

  Attorney Avery did not leave, and was still making the last effort, "Carbin, listen to your father, he must have his own reasons for doing this.

  It will not benefit both parties if this case continues. "

  Actually, under normal circumstances, Avery would not say such things.

  He was right. If the two parties go to court, it will definitely be a protracted battle. Even if the amount of compensation is lowered, they still have to pay huge legal fees. In the end, only the lawyers will make money.

   But the problem is, Carbin has no money, his father has money, and if his father doesn't pay the money, Avery can't be obliged to appear in court.

  Since his way of making money has been blocked, he might as well settle it.

   Cabin was silent again and again, and finally signed the settlement.

  Even if he has all kinds of grievances in his heart, he can only compromise in the face of reality.

  Subsequently, the settlement was submitted to the judge, and the judge asked in person whether it was signed by himself, and was confirmed by Luke and Cabin, and the settlement came into effect.

  According to the agreement, Cabbeen will pay 40,000 US dollars in compensation within a week.

  The Harley theft incident is also officially closed.

  Luke is also very satisfied. After paying Daisy's legal fees, he will have about 35,000 US dollars left, which is much faster than going to work.

   At 8:00 p.m., Calami Western Restaurant.

   This is a Michelin-starred western restaurant, yes, it is the one that Xiao Hei brought Julian to.

  Luke helped Daisy open the chair very gentlemanly.

  Daisy looked at the decoration of the restaurant, "Aren't the dishes in this restaurant cheap?"

   "As long as you like it, I'm happy to spend any amount of money."

   "I remember this restaurant requires reservations and seems to have been remodeled."

  Luke hesitated for a moment, "Have you been here?"

   "Our law firm is here to have dinner together."

  Luke "…"

   It seems that Xiao Hei's set is no longer available.

   "Then you order." Luke gave up.

  Daisy ordered a set meal for two and ordered a bottle of red wine.

  The two had a drink.

  Luke said, "Don't you think Vice Principal Portia's behavior today is a bit strange? The attitude before and after is completely opposite, as if he was stimulated by something."

  Daisy nodded, "He was indeed stimulated. For his own future, he can only settle the lawsuit as soon as possible. If the lawsuit falls into a tug-of-war, his reputation will definitely be affected."

   Luke guessed that Daisy should have done something, "How?"

  Daisy said, "I have a reporter friend who is always worried about the lack of news topics, so I did her a little favor."

   "It's a good idea." After thinking for a while, Luke understood Daisy's approach.

  Although he doesn't know much about the law, there are still some similarities between lawyer negotiation and police interrogation.

Although Cabin Portia is the party involved in the case, it is his father, Principal Portia, who really makes the decision. The key to reconciliation or going to court depends on Principal Portia. Therefore, Daisy did not focus on Cabin Portia, but It hit Principal Portia seven inches directly.

   Cabin Portia wants to reconcile, but it may not be possible, because he has no money.

  But Vice Principal Portia wanted to reconcile, but Carbin Portia was unable to object.

  Since you can shoot directly, there is no need to choose to dribble.

   Early morning.

  Luke wakes up to make breakfast.

  Daisy was in a hurry to go to work, drank a cup of hot coffee, and hurried out.

  Luke is too lazy to cook by himself.

   Soaked a pot of Longjing in the yard, thinking about today's schedule.

   Today is already the fourth day of his vacation, and he has already let himself go.

   Being able to ask for leave is also a skill, and Susan will not agree to other people who want to ask for leave.

  Of course, Luke is not idle, the schedule for these four days is full, and today is the same.

  Luke ate a deluxe pancake at the community square, drank a cup of soy milk, and then drove straight to the Pomos Boxing Gym.

  The purpose of his coming here is to learn boxing and increase his actual combat ability.

  As a policeman in Los Angeles, marksmanship is the most important thing, but in some special cases, guns cannot be used, and the suspect can only be subdued by fighting skills.

  For example, if the distance between the two parties is less than three meters, and the suspect suddenly gets into trouble, he is drawing his gun at this time, and he will only be beaten. If he meets a boxer and punches him on the temple, he may be KOed directly.

   There is also a common situation where the suspect is unarmed, does not pose a threat to the police, but turns around and flees.

  In this case, the police cannot shoot the suspect in the back, and it will be very troublesome afterwards.

  In this situation, it is usually to catch up with the suspect and arrest him.

   It is also necessary to subdue the opponent by virtue of fighting ability.

  Luke walked into the Pomos Boxing Gym. It was his first time here. The owner of the boxing gym was Hall Pomos.

   Formerly a professional boxer, once won the WBA champion.

   However, his peak period was very short, and he soon retired due to injuries.

  Luke didn't know him at first, and he started to search for boxing-related information after he got the "boxing card". He saw his teaching video on tiktok and knew that he opened a boxing gym here.

  One-to-one personal training is $100/hour.

  Although the price is not low, he is a boxing champion after all, so Luke thinks it is worth it.

  Luke entered the boxing gym, and heard a 'bang bang' boxing sound.

  A tall white man is punching, powerful and fast.

  After seeing Luke, the man stopped, "Want to try?"

  Luke smiled, "Coach Hall, this is Luke, I contacted you yesterday."

  Hall is slightly taller than Luke, but he should be less than 1.9 meters, but he is physically strong, a circle thicker than Luke. It can be seen that although he has retired, he has not relaxed his training.

   "Have you ever boxed before?"

   "Know some basics."

   Hall took a pair of red gloves and handed them to Luke, "Put them on, let's practice."

  It is a rare opportunity to fight against the former world boxing champion, and Luke really wants to try it.

  The two entered the ring, Hall waved his right hand, "You attack, I defend, I want to test your level first."

  Luke is quite capable of fighting, but compared with ordinary people, he is a bit timid compared with boxing champions.

  But at this time, the arrow is on the string and has to be launched.

  Luke took out his best form to attack.

   Straight punches, uppercuts, swinging punches...

   "Bang bang..."

  Luke attacked with his pace, but Hall blocked or dodged them one by one.

   Moreover, Hall's rhythm is very stable, and he maintains a counterattack state at any time.

  Luke has no doubt that if the opponent wants to fight back, he will definitely be hit, or even knocked to the ground.

  After practicing for a while, Hall seemed to want to continue to understand Luke's level, "Put on the protective gear, let's play a game."

   "Fight with you?"

   "Don't you dare?"

   "How come, I'm happy." Luke smiled, put on the protective gear, moved his steps, and moved his hands and feet.

   "Comeon, you attack with all your strength, I will counterattack, but I will keep my strength properly."

   "OK." Luke moved his pace, circling Hall, without attacking for a long time, as if looking for his flaws.

   Hall urged, "Hey, I'm billing by the hour, don't waste your time."

  Luke gave up looking for his flaws, and couldn't find it at all. He simply used his best attack routine, feigning his left fist, bending his right arm, and hitting the opponent's left cheek with a standard right swing.

  Hall's steps were light, his body moved back, and he easily dodged, "The strength is enough, but unfortunately the speed is not fast enough, the range is too large, and the punch is too obvious.

   It's like telling the enemy, I'm going to hit you on the left cheek.

   Come again. "

  Luke adjusted his pace again, this time hitting Hall directly with a straight punch.

   "Bang!" Hall directly blocked it with his gloves.

   "It's still not fast enough, come again."

   Luke hit another straight punch.

  Hall dodges sideways, then hits Luke on the right cheek with an uppercut with his left hand.

"boom!"

  Luke took a few steps back, staggering, his cheeks hurt, and his head was a little dizzy.

   This is still him wearing the protective gear. If he didn't wear the protective gear, this punch would have beaten him badly.

   I have to say that the gap between ordinary people and top professional boxers is too great.

  Hall said lightly, "Your level is about the same as that of an ordinary amateur boxer. Your basic skills are not bad, and your reflexes are also good, but that's all.

   What are your learning goals? "

   "It's enough to reach the level of a professional boxer." Luke is not greedy, and he never thought of becoming a boxing champion.

  If reaching the level of a professional boxer can be achieved through hard work and hard work, then the champion of boxing depends on hard work and talent, and the latter is more important.

  In addition, the purpose of Luke's boxing training is to enhance his actual combat ability, but his fighting skills are not limited to boxing. He will also practice other fighting skills besides boxing.

  80 points in boxing, 80 points in wrestling, 80 points in jujitsu, you can easily beat a 100-point boxer in actual combat.

  The real actual combat depends on comprehensive ability.

  And three items with 80 points are easier to achieve than one with 100 points.

  The more top players in a certain skill, the harder it is to improve.

   Hall said, "Your physical fitness is good, but it is not easy to reach the level of a professional boxer. You have to be prepared."

  “I am prepared and confident.”

   "Good, let's get started."

   "How do we practice?"

   "Your boxing is good, and you can directly enter the actual combat stage. I will find students to fight with you, and I will point out your shortcomings during the break."

   "OK." Luke used the boxing card.

   Soon, Hall found a black student to fight Luke.

  The black trainee's physique is comparable to Luke's, but his boxing skills are better than Luke's. At the beginning of sparring, he kept pressing down on Luke, which made Luke a little depressed.

   After a round, Luke was called off the ring.

   Hall and Luke watched the video of the two-person boxing match together, and commented on Luke's shortcomings and areas for improvement.

   During the explanation, when Luke didn't understand, Hall would also show up to teach.

  Hall explained very carefully, and would also tell Luke some fighting tips. The time for each explanation was longer than the time for sparring, otherwise Luke's physical fitness would not be able to last the whole morning.

  With the blessing of the boxing card, Luke made rapid progress. It was almost noon, and he was able to fight against black students.

   Now it was the black student's turn to be depressed. He couldn't figure out why Luke could improve so fast.

  Hall was also surprised by Luke's progress. In the afternoon, he decided to fight Luke himself.

   At noon, Luke offered to invite Hall to dinner. Hall refused at first, but with Luke's repeated insistence, he finally went.

   Building a good relationship with Hall is one aspect. He also wants to take advantage of the meal to ask Hall for some boxing knowledge.

  After the meal, I rested for two hours.

  Luke and Hall fight.

   The pressure on Hall was really high.

  For Luke, Hall is a pentagonal fighter, and he can't find any shortcomings at all. The only way to attack him is to be beaten in reverse.

   This is not to say that Luke has no chance of winning against him. If it is an actual combat, Luke still has a certain possibility of winning by using wrestling and grappling.

  However, the premise is to avoid Hall's fist and be able to get close to him.

  In the afternoon, Luke used the second boxing card.

   Same as the teaching mode in the morning.

  The two practiced against each other for a while, and Hall would also teach him some boxing skills. Luke's progress rate surprised Hall.

   Another black student was called to fight with Luke.

  In the first round, Luke stunned the black student with a right swing. He didn't stand up for a long time. If he wasn't wearing a protective gear, he might have been KO'd directly.

   Hall looked a little complicated, "You are such a boxing genius, it's a pity..."

   "Dad, what's the pity?" A teenage boy walked in with a schoolbag on his back.

   "Dean, you came back just in time. Let me introduce you. This is Luke, my new student. His boxing talent is likely to be higher than yours."

   "Luke, this is my son Dean, 11th grade. Do you want to practice with him?"

   "Is he underage?"

   "Hey, don't underestimate me, you may not be able to beat me?" Dean waved his fist, looking full of confidence.

  Luke thought to himself, then I can't even fight you.

   "Next time, I can't move today."

  Dean pointed at Luke, "I seem to have seen you somewhere?"

   "This is my first time coming to the boxing gym."

   "Didn't I mean here?" Dean recalled carefully, "Are you a policeman?

   "It seems that you have indeed seen me."

  Dean showed an excited look, "Yes, you are Inspector Luke, I saw you at the school gate, the lone hero of the school Y shooting."

  Luke smiled, "I'm not a hero, I'm your father's defeat now."

   Hall said, "Luke, let me tell you how familiar this name is.

  I also watched the news, you caught the shooter at my son's school? why did not you tell me? "

  Luke spread his hands, "I just did my job."

   "I want to thank you, I let my son learn boxing not only because he is interested and talented, but also because I hope he can protect himself, but it is useless to box in front of gunmen.

   In order to show my gratitude, I will not charge your tuition. "

  Luke said, "Hall, thank you for your kindness, but one yard is one yard, and the tuition still has to be paid."

  Hall said, "No, don't mention tuition fees anymore.

  Even if I make a little contribution to the police station, I think it is more meaningful than donating to the police station. Only when you become stronger in my boxing gym can you better protect the children in the school.

   I also wanted to do my part for the kids in the school, and I insisted on doing so. "

   "Thank you." Luke didn't say anything more, feeling very warm in his heart.

   It's not about the money, but the affirmation and recognition of my hard work in investigating the case and dedication.

   This feeling is more important than money.

   After a few chats, Luke was tired after a day of training, so he took off his protective gear and went home.

  When Dean packed the protective gear, he found an envelope under Luke's glove, "Dad, this is what Luke left behind."

   Hall took it over and saw that there were six green banknotes in the envelope.

   I want to finish writing in one go.

   The update is a bit late, sorry.

   New case in the next chapter.
