Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 336 - Baby, and Unexpected Gunfight



Selina was surprised. “Are you kidding me?” No wonder this fellow suddenly said that he was taking her for a spin. Also, did they just pass Elsworth Avenue?

While she was surprised, she didn’t say anything else.

Luke was a lot more prudent than she was.

Looking at the people who were enjoying the bright sunshine in the park, Luke remarked, “What a quiet and peaceful…”

“Oh god, why is there a baby here?” a woman cried out in the distance.

Luke turned back, only to see a baby on a merry-go-round dozens of meters behind him.

The woman was also looking around as she exclaimed in shock.

She was too far away for Selina to hear her, and Selina was still enjoying her cake.

Luke frowned and got up.

He wouldn’t have bothered if it was any other minor issue, but a baby had been dumped in the park, and he had to at least go over and confirm the situation.

“Selina, it’s time to work,” he called out to the glutton.

Selina raised her head in confusion, and followed his gaze. “A baby? What’s going on?”

Even as she said it, she was already putting down the cake and getting to her feet.

Right then, four men in black ran toward the merry-go-round. The woman picked up the baby and raised her voice. “Whose baby is this?”

The four men in black quickly ran over. “Give us the baby.”

The woman subconsciously stepped back when she saw the four men. “You…” No matter how she looked at them, they didn’t look like guardians at all. Luke sped up and shouted, “LAPD! Don’t move!”

The four men abruptly looked at him, and two of them reached under their armpits, while the other two lunged at the middle-aged woman.

Luke’s expression turned grim.

He was too far away.

He was thirty meters away from the four men, who were too close to the middle-aged woman carrying the baby. He wasn’t confident that he could kill them all at once.

He could only push off of his feet with a burst of speed.

Bang!

There was a sudden gunshot, and the woman holding the baby screamed and fell as blood burst out of her thigh.

Luke’s face turned cold, and he took out his gun.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

As he opened fire with his Glock, he began to zigzag instead of moving in a straight line.

Two men fell before they could aim their guns at him.

One was shot in the abdomen and the other in the head. They were killed instantly.

Luke came to an abrupt halt.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! The other two men who had planned to steal the baby also collapsed from a shot in the abdomen and the head respectively.

In those two short seconds just now, Luke had closed the distance to twenty meters, but the woman had also been shot.

But the moment she fell, the woman broke free of their hold.

Luke no longer had any qualms.

These men were simply scum, to shoot an innocent woman holding a baby.

Selina had already closed in from the side, but she didn’t say anything, and instead looked around warily.

She never doubted Luke’s ability to crush criminals. Her responsibility was to make up for anything he might miss. “Three o’clock, fifty meters, the black SUV!” she suddenly shouted.

Luke moved swiftly as he threw himself behind a nearby tree.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Grimly, Luke yelled, “LAPD! Everybody lie down and don’t move!”

There were dozens of regular residents here who were enjoying the afternoon sun in the park.

Two automatic rifles had already started firing wildly at Luke’s position from the black SUV which Selina had pointed out, and the tree shuddered with the impact from the bullets.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

There was suddenly a pause in the gunfire from the automatic rifles, as Selina had taken cover and was firing back at the shooters in the SUV.

Almost at the same time, Luke darted out and fired his Glock rapidly as he ran.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Now that both he and Selina were coordinating, the shooters didn’t dare raise their heads anymore.

Multiple bullet holes appeared in the windows of the black SUV, and the two people in the car could only stay as low as possible.

At that moment, the sound of Selina’s gunfire stopped as she had used up her bullets.

Luke wasn’t surprised since he had been counting the remaining bullets in her gun.

He stopped shooting as well, and the shooter on the driver’s seat tried poking his head out.

Pa!

The last bullet in Luke’s Glock 23 was reserved for this man.

The bullet pierced his right eye and blood blossomed on the back of his head.

Luke was now five meters away from the black SUV.

Over such a short distance, even a heavy machine gun wouldn’t be as fast as his pistol.

After the shot, Luke put the gun back in his holster and took out the M686 from another holster. “LAPD! Open the door slowly, throw out your gun, and crawl out.”

As he was yelling out the instructions, he saw that Selina had closed in, and was behind a tree ten meters away as she stayed on high alert.

If she hadn’t noticed the black SUV beforehand, the two of them might have been seriously injured in the ambush just now, and they couldn’t let their guards down yet.

There was no response from the black SUV.

Luke wasn’t impulsive. Shifting his gun to his right hand, he observed his surroundings while he put on his badge.

“I’ll shoot if you do not surrender on the count of three,” Luke said calmly.

“One, two, three…” Just as he finished counting down, the door of the black SUV opened on the other side, and a man in black tried to run away. Bang! Bang!

After two gunshots, the man screamed and fell. The gun dropped from his hand, and he clutched his legs as he writhed on the ground.

Luke had shot him in his right thigh and his left knee.

The man might still be able to use one of his legs if he was lucky, otherwise he would have to choose between a wheelchair or a pair of crutches for the rest of his life.

Luke then stepped forward and handcuffed the man.

He searched the man and didn’t find any other weapons on him. He then said, “Selina, bring our car over and call for reinforcements.”

The police intercom system in the car was the easiest way to call for backup.

Selina ran off to get the car. Luke didn’t check the black SUV, which now only had the driver, whose head had been blown up.

He quickly ran back to the woman who had been shot, and examined her injury as he soothed her.
