Chapter 203 Unexpected Speculation

Luke thought for a moment and said, “I’ll join you. I want to know what happened today.”

After arriving at the hospital, they talked outside the surgery room.

What happened wasn’t complicated.

Donald and Selina had returned to the scene of the crime to look for clues that they might have missed earlier.

But somebody was in the apartment when they arrived.

They carefully opened the door and saw that female shooter.

Luke finally learned that the female shooter wasn’t a random person, but the missing tenant of the apartment.

Naturally, Donald and Selina were excited.

The tenant was definitely a lead. After all, it was strange that she went missing after someone died in her apartment.

Since she was alive, she could be the murderer, or an informant.

Donald immediately stepped forward to try and take her back with them to the police department.

Selina, however, was much more vigilant thanks to Luke’s training. She noticed that something didn’t look right with the tenant.

She hauled Donald out of the apartment, but the tenant took out her gun and shot at them.

They then took cover on the stairs.

After that, both sides were caught at an impasse.

Selina and Donald outnumbered the tenant, though they weren’t as good at shooting as she was. They locked her down on the fifth floor.

A moment before Luke arrived, Donald got careless and was shot.

If Luke hadn’t arrived in time, the shooter could’ve left easily via the stairs instead of having to jump over ten meters between two buildings.

While Luke was asking about the details, Elsa finally arrived.

She was also greatly shocked when Selina told her what happened.

Luke simply told Elsa that she should turn a blind eye if she ran into the shooter, and that she shouldn’t try to arrest the woman, with or without backup, or someone might die.

After a long while, Luke finally offered his theory. “It was probably this shooter who killed William.”

Elsa was stunned. “How can you be sure?”

Luke said, “Do you remember what the two escorts said?”

Elsa asked, “You mean how someone flew over the car and blew William’s head up? Was it done by this shooter?”

Luke said solemnly in a low voice, “Just now, with my own eyes, I saw her jump more than fifteen meters and land on the rooftop of the next building before she escaped.”

Elsa exclaimed and couldn’t believe it at all.

Luke said, “Let’s just wait. This isn’t a case we can handle.”

After a brief hesitation, Elsa asked, “What about the boss?”

Luke said, “You go talk to him. In any case, I won’t investigate this case. That female shooter was abnormal. In order to deal with her, we’d have to surround her and barrage her with overwhelming firepower.”

Elsa fell silent.

How could it be that simple? The female shooter certainly wasn’t an idiot who would wait to be surrounded.

Given her ability to jump fifteen meters, it would be near impossible to besiege her at all in this city.

After the discussion, Luke and Elsa left, and Selina waited at the hospital for Donald to come out of surgery.

Luke and Elsa returned to the apartment building, which had been locked down by the police.

It was no small thing that a police officer was shot, much less in a follow-up to a homicide in the apartment.

Luke and Elsa went back to the rooftop. Luke examined the area as well as the bullet hole in the metal billboard.

In the end, he realized that the bullet was shot by none other than the female shooter herself.

Her bullet had indeed curved!

Elsa, on the other hand, looked at the footprint where the rooftop had cracked, and was convinced.

Though the building was rather rundown, it still wouldn’t crumble that easily.

Only such a terrifying force could have supported a jump of fifteen meters.

After figuring out the situation, Luke and Elsa left the apartment building.

After they returned, they told Dustin what happened, and Dustin solemnly told them to keep it confidential, before he sent them home to get some rest.

Luke shrugged and said, “Alright. I’m going to the hospital. You can go home first.”

Elsa shook her head. “I’m going to find Margaret. I’m afraid that the female shooter…”

Luke didn’t think that it was likely, but it was still a possibility. He simply reminded her, “Remember, keep as far away from the female shooter as possible if you run into her.”

Elsa smiled bitterly. “Is there a need to be so worried?”

Luke was grim. “I don’t want you to get sent in for surgery. Don’t let anything happen to you.”

Elsa nodded silently.

Nobody wanted anything to happen to their partner.

Luke returned to the hospital with a bag of food, water and warm clothes for Selina, since it was inconvenient for her to get them herself.

On the bench outside the surgery room, they talked about the female shooter again, and Selina recalled more details.

Eventually, Luke and Selina confirmed an unbelievable thing: the female shooter hadn’t wanted to fight or kill Selina and Donald at all.

If Donald and Selina hadn’t blocked the way so doggedly, the female shooter might’ve left after she forced them to retreat.

The female shooter, whom even Luke had failed to take down, could’ve killed Donald and Selina at any moment, particularly when their guards were down at the beginning.

But she hadn’t.

Luke knew how good she was, even better than Selina did.

It wasn’t really a problem for a shooter who was capable of Physical Outburst and Curve Shooting to kill two people who didn’t know anything about her abilities.

Selina and Donald were probably only still alive because the shooter had spared them.

The reason why Luke had been able to shoot her in the end was also because she only wanted to run, and had no intention of fighting the police.

Luke couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

Come to think of it, his last two shots had been like an ambush.

No wonder the shooter had been angered into taking action, and had used Curve Shooting after she was shot.

Had it not been for Luke’s good habit of changing locations frequently, his head could’ve been blown up.
