Chapter 760: Fight the Landlord In Passing, and Following the Clues

Luke, on the other hand, looked at the system notification and smiled. So that was how it was!

System: You have defeated Stacy Geraldine Carlisle and have received a list of her abilities.

Stacy Geraldine Carlisle’s abilities: Basic Combat, Basic Firearms, Basic Intelligence Gathering... Elementary Replication (X-gene; partially available. Prerequisites: 60 Strength, 20 Dexterity, 40 Mental Strength and 20,000 credit points)

After getting what he wanted, Luke gave a perfunctory reply and sent the copy of Karen Gaffney out.

“Karen” quickly slipped away as if she had been granted amnesty.

Standing in front of the door, Luke chuckled.

There was a special scent in the air that ordinary people couldn’t detect. Thanks to his Sharp Nose, he could easily lock onto it.

This Stacy with the replication superpower was the accomplice of the twin sisters who had broken out of custody.

She had also turned into the female SWAT officer, Sanchez, and shared a car with Luke.

In the end, she turned back into Harrison and swaggered out of the police department after she picked up the twins.

This person’s ability was impossible to guard against, and was one of the abilities that Luke wanted the most.

He had thought that these three gutsy girls had already left Los Angeles, but they hadn’t.

However, from Luke’s Mental Communication, he could tell that this Stacy wasn’t malicious.

She was more like a thief who had been caught red-handed and was desperate to escape.

However, he was quite unhappy about the fact that Stacy had come into contact with Claire.

Thus, he forced her to play cards with him, and won three times.

In fact, after his second net victory, he was qualified to learn Elementary Replication.

But he still went for a third victory.

Based on his experience, even lucky people like a certain tycoon would show signs of bad luck after losing three times to him.

If someone with ordinary luck lost to him three times, it would be normal for them to choke on water or slip on a banana peel when walking.

He had just obtained Stacy’s ability in passing.

In any case, he was free, and was able to obtain the ability by playing a few rounds of Fight the Landlord. He didn’t mind losing it later. However, that wasn’t the main point.

The main point was that he had put a special drug in the drink that he had given to Stacy.

It was a drug developed for his Sharp Nose, which had been in his inventory ever since it was invented.

It would only be metabolized 72 hours later.

Before that, the person who absorbed the drug would emit a scent that ordinary people wouldn’t be able to detect. For Sharp Nose, it was no harder to track than body odor and not as bad.

It could help him lock quickly onto Stacy and her unpredictable appearance, until he had finished dealing with the three girls.

That night, Luke took Selina out.

They were only dressed casually tonight, and Selina drove.

When he reached the place that he had been looking for, he opened the door and got out. When he walked into the alley, he opened the suitcase in his hand.

In the car, Selina let the drone out.

“I see them. All three of them are here.” Selina’s voice came through the earpiece.

Luke walked unhurriedly to the bungalow and unlocked the door in two moves.

“The girl who likes to roar seems to have noticed something,” Selina warned him.

Luke closed the door and raised his gun.

Da!

There was the sound of something similar to a nail gun being fired.

In the living room, the short-haired girl who had just stood up felt a slight pain in her shoulder. “Someone’s here.”

After the warning, she tried to attack with her ability.

She barely made a sound, when she started to feel dizzy. She collapsed with a thump, and the roar she was about to let out stopped.

Luke moved his gun.

Da!

The mushroom-headed girl had just rushed out of the room, when she was hit in the chest by a tranquilizer.

Bang!

The cloth over her chest suddenly exploded, and the tranquilizer broke into fragments.

Luke’s pace didn’t change as he continued moving forward.

When he reached the door, the mushroom-headed girl swayed and collapsed.

He used his foot to cushion her fall so that her head wouldn’t hit the ground. He also looked at her torn shirt.

Fortunately, the tranquilizer only left a small wound on her chest.

Satisfied, he suddenly stretched his hand into the bedroom and pulled the trigger.

Da! Da!

“Ah!” a girl exclaimed.

“Crash!” There was the sound of breaking glass as someone crashed out of the window.

Luke smiled and went to the kitchen. He opened the back door and walked out.

A slender figure stumbled through the backyard. She tried her best to resist the effect of the tranquilizer, but it was too strong.

She broke out of the window and ran another ten meters. Her hands barely touched the wooden fence in the backyard, when she blacked out.

Luke walked over and picked her up.

“You’re not going to torture them, right?” Selina asked nervously in Luke’s earpiece.

Luke hadn’t been gentle when he dealt with the hoodlums when he went out as a vigilante last night. She didn’t want to imagine the girls being treated the same way.

These three girls were too reckless and went overboard, but considering their age and the possible consequences, it wouldn’t be good to be too ruthless when dealing with them.

Luke nodded. “If they don’t have any extreme ideas, I’ll just scare them a little at most.”

Selina didn’t say anything else.

She knew that as long as they wanted to hurt Claire, he would never let the matter go.

This guy had always been that protective.

Luke took out two needleless syringes and injected the cure for the tranquilizer into the unconscious Stacy’s neck, before he injected an inducer on the other side.

Two minutes later, a dazed Stacy opened her eyes, but her pupils weren’t focused.

Luke pressed down on her heart with a bit of force and looked into her eyes. “Stacy, you’re safe now. Nobody will hurt you...”

In the car not far away, Selina was creeped out as she listened.

She had the feeling that Luke’s voice was a little strange and different from usual.

He was now speaking in a level and gentle tone without any fluctuations; there was none of the feeling that was usually present in his regular tone.

But what happened next shocked her even more.

After half an hour of intermittent questioning, while Stacy would occasionally fall silent, she still told Luke everything about the three of them in the end.

They had complicated backgrounds, but not overly so.

When it came to certain past experiences, Stacy would be strongly resistant and refuse to talk.

Luke decisively steered clear of this sensitive issue.

What he was more interested in was why the three girls had approached Claire and if they had gotten any information from her.
