"Wuu wuu..."
Lee i and Brown also rushed to Wang Chao's ho.
The forr 'family of three' hugged each other and cried.
Brown, as a father, was even more emotional than Lee i, crying the loudest and hugging his daughter without letting go, Luke felt that Betty's neck was almost getting strangled.
Lee i, with her eyes red, patted her daughter's back and comforted her quietly.
Reid ca over and patted Luke on the shoulder, "You did well. You handled the situation decisively and rescued Betty and Amy Ma in ti.
I will comnd your actions."
"Thank you," Luke humbly replied, "It's everyone's credit, with your exemplary leadership.
I was just luckier than most, plus so of my own judgnt."
Reid said, "Luck is also a form of strength."
Luke tended to agree with Reid's words, luck is like breathing in life, relying on oneself to achieve it. So things seem coincidental but actually follow certain objective rules, it's just that these rules are not always clear.
Just like buying lottery tickets, why do so people win?
Luck?
Luke thought there were two possibilities, first, you have to buy them every day, always be ready, even though the odds are incredibly slim, purchasing gives you the chance to win.
The second possibility... is far more complicated.
Most people can't even envy it, let alone be jealous, as jealousy can damage one's health and is futile.
Before he had the Detective System, Luke never bought these things, as he was just an ordinary person back then, neither having the spare cash to buy every day nor the kind of good luck.
After the family of three finished crying, Brown led his daughter over to Luke, "Deputy Commandant Luke, thank you for saving my daughter. I really don't know what to say.
If it weren't for eting you in the bar, I don't know what foolish things I might have done, or how things would have ended...
You didn't just save Betty, you saved too.
I... really don't know how to express this."
Luke waved his hand, "I'm a police officer, it's my duty to do so. Even if the person held captive wasn't Betty, I would have tried my best to rescue them.
Relax a bit.
You are a good father, just... you chose the wrong thod.
I hope you can trust the police more in the future. Especially us from the Robbery and Murder Departnt."
"I will," Brown replied earnestly, shaking hands with Luke firmly.
anwhile, Betty showed a grateful expression, "Deputy Commandant Luke, thank you for saving ."
Luke patted her head, "No need for thanks, I'm also very glad to have saved you."
Betty blinked her large eyes, showing an expectant look, and asked in Chinese, "Can I see you again in the future?"
Luke smiled, "It's not very likely, why do you ask?"
"I was extrely scared in that hole, crying non-stop, thinking I was going to die and never see my parents again.
When a beam of light suddenly shone into the hole and I saw you coming down from above...
I felt... joyful, excited, ecstatic...
I can't describe how I felt in words at that mont.
You cut the ropes and rescued , making truly feel safe.
This isn't sothing that can be conveyed with a simple 'thank you'.
I hope I can see you again, you are like a ray of sunlight in my life..."
Hearing Betty's words, Luke was also moved, really wanting to give her his business card, telling her she could contact him if she needed anything.
But... ultimately he did not do so, consoling her softly, "Betty, you're safe now.
I will catch the bad guy who kidnapped you and send him to jail.
Don't be afraid, don't put too much pressure on yourself, and make sure to speak up if sothing's wrong.
Your father and mother both love you dearly.
If you encounter danger again, make sure to dial 911 imdiately."
Betty nodded her head, "I'll rember that."
Lee i also ca over and shook hands with Luke, "Deputy Chief Lee, thank you for everything you've done."
"Don't ntion it, it's my obligation."
"You're a good cop, I'm envious that Frank has such a great assistant like you."
Luke joked, "You should tell him that yourself."
"I will."
After a brief chat, Lee i and the others left.
Small Black said, "Why didn't you give Betty a business card? You're the one who saved her.
You can tell she's feeling really insecure right now, she trusts you, and you're just the person who could help her through this."
"I'm not you," Luke responded. It wasn't that Small Black was bad, but everyone has a different personality and their way of doing things.
Like Small Black and Jaden, Small Black has made helping Jaden his responsibility, which is great because it shows he's kind-hearted, but such one-sided giving can be exhausting.
Luke was more of a rational person and couldn't quite do as Small Black does.
As for helping Betty, whether it would bring him closer to Lee i.
Luke felt that his current relationship with Lee i was just right, not too close but not too distant either.
He saved Betty, and Lee i would surely be grateful if she could assist Luke, she surely wouldn't stand by idly.
That was enough.
What else could he expect? No matter how good your relationship with her daughter, it wouldn't lead directly to a promotion.
Besides, Lee i managed to beco the deputy mayor, a shrewd person indeed. Being overly eager might not necessarily be a good thing.
Hoping to beco family with her over this incident.
At first, she might indeed be grateful, but over ti, that may fade.
Luke and Lee i weren't from the sa circle anyway, sitting together would only lead to awkward conversation.
Better to have a gentleman's agreent, like water, a lasting friendship.
The hostages were rescued, and the scene had been taken over by the investigative team.
But the case wasn't over yet, as the suspect still hadn't been caught.
The Robbery and Murder Departnt could not relax yet.
