Chapter 653 Chance Encounter

"whats the matter?"

"Uh..." The little fat man hesitated for a moment, "It's Maggie's business."

Luke shrugged, "What happened to her?"

The little fat man looked depressed, "Maggie is missing. I'm very worried about her."

"Missing? When did it happen?"

"I asked her classmates and she didn't go to school for two days. It was said that she was on sick leave."

"Listen, if you are worried about Maggie, you can contact her directly. Even if we can't be a couple, you can still be friends.

There’s no need to scare yourself like this.”

"I contacted her, but I couldn't. I also went to her house, but there was no one at Maggie's house, so I was worried.

A murder just happened in our school, and I'm worried that she will also..."

"Hey, don't scare yourself.

I have already solved that murder case and it has nothing to do with Maggie.

Maybe Maggie is feeling unwell and needs to find another place to recuperate."

"Where could she go? We have never been apart for so long."

"Hey, brother, you guys broke up now and things are different from before."

"I know, and I'm coming to terms with it, but...

I just can't help but worry about her.

I just...want to make sure she is okay.

That's enough."

"It seems that our old Li family has an extra love interest." Luke sighed helplessly, "OK, what do you want me to do?"

"Can you contact Maggie? I just want to make sure she's safe."

"I seem to have added her number before. I'm looking for it..." Luke took out his phone and looked through the contacts. After a while, he said, "OK, I found her number.

But let’s make an agreement first, and after we get through, who will say it, you or me?”

"you say."

"Do you want to tell her that you are worried about her?"

"No, I don't want her to think I'm stalking her. Maggie doesn't like people like that."

Luke nodded and asked, "What should I say if I get through?"

The little fat man said, "Didn't you have a good chat when we had gatherings before?"

"Yes, that's because we have a common topic - you.

But I can't mention you now...

It felt a little weird for me to call so rashly."

The little fat man seemed to recall something sad, and his fat face immediately drooped.

Luke looked at his watch, didn't bother to wait any longer, and dialed Maggie's number directly.

After a while, the phone was connected.

"Hi, Maggie."

"Luke, why did you remember to contact me? I'm a little surprised."

"I recently went to your school to handle a case, and I heard by chance that you haven't been to school recently. Did something happen?"

"Oh, thank you for your concern.

I'm just feeling a little unwell, so I'm giving myself a few days off."

"How many days are you going to rest at home?"

"I'm not at home. Actually, my father wanted me to change my environment, so I stayed at my aunt's house temporarily.

It will probably take a few days before I can go back.

However, my health is fine, so don’t worry.”

"OK, I wish you a speedy recovery."

"thanks, I will."

Luke hung up the phone and looked at the fat man beside him, "Did you hear that?"

The little fat man had a complicated look on his face, "It seems like she has not lost contact, she just... blocked me."

Luke was suddenly curious, why did the two of them break up?

But he stopped talking when he said it. He was an older brother, not a close sister.

"I'm going to buy a new car. Are you going home now or coming with me?"

The little fat man slowly raised his head and asked, "What should we eat for lunch?"

"The main task today is to buy a car. Let's have something to eat near the car dealership at noon. I'll treat you to a big dinner in the evening."

"Sounds pretty good."

"Come with me, you won't regret it."

Soon, the two took a taxi and rushed to the car dealership.

The little fat man asked, "What car do you want to buy?"

"Sports car."

The little fat man looked at Luke, "The sports car is pretty good, but... I don't think you are suitable for driving a sports car."

"Why?"

"I just have a hard time associating your image with a sports car."

"What happened to my image?"

"You are a policeman, and you are very..." the little fat man said, and changed his words, "You are also a tough guy.

In short, your temperaments don’t match.”

Luke said, "I understand what you mean, there are many kinds of sports cars, and not all sports cars are so delicate.

There are sports cars for tough guys, too.”

The two brothers chatted about rides and rides, and soon they arrived at the largest Dodge dealership in Los Angeles.

After the little fat man got out of the car, he spread his hands and said, "Haven't you driven the police car enough?"

"Most of the Dodge brand police cars are Dodge Chargers, and the one I want to buy today is a Dodge Challenger. One is a four-door and the other is a two-door. There is a big difference in performance."

The little fat man thought for a while, "Let me guess?

You want to buy a Hellcat!”

"I haven't thought about it yet, it might be the devil."

The little fat man looked envious, "It's great to have money!"

"Good morning, gentlemen, and welcome to the Dodge dealership." A white saleswoman wearing a short skirt and exposing her long legs came over with a faint smile on her face. "Which car do you want to know about? I can help you."

Let me introduce it to you."

Luke looked at the other person and said with a smile, "I like your voice, what should you call it?"

"Abby Owen.

Sir, what do you call me?"

"My surname is Li, and this is my younger brother."

"Mr. Li, which car do you like? I will take you to see it."

"Challenger Series."

"Wow, just as I thought, this car suits your temperament very well.

Mr. Li, what is your budget?"

"No budget."

"OK." Abbey Owen raised her eyebrows, led Luke and Jack to the car showroom, pointed to the Dodge car on the far left and said, "This is the 23rd Dodge Challenger SXT, two-door

, four-wheel drive, extra large trunk, 6-liter, six-cylinder self-priming engine, maximum horsepower of 309 horses, acceleration from 0 to 100 mph in 6.2 seconds..."

"How much?"

"For thirty-four thousand dollars, you can drive it home."
