Chapter 787 The Stubborn Old Man and the Good Child (1 more)

"Luke, I'm worried about my grandfather, and my parents are not here, so I can only call you." Joseph spoke.

Luke snorted, "I'll call him right away, don't worry." He hung up the phone.

Although Joseph was very young, he was quite intelligent.

Catherine and Luke had mentioned in casual conversation that Joseph's IQ was likely to be up to the Mensa Club.

Robert and Catherine are still in Europe, and Luke and Claire are in Los Angeles.

Joseph easily judged the best person to turn to for help - and it could only be Luke.

Luke didn't dare to take this brother's words lightly, and immediately dialed Drakes's mobile phone, but the phone was busy.

He frowned and said, "Turn on the duplicate dial." "Then I put the phone on the center console.

A minute later, Drex's phone was still busy.

Selena took out her phone: "I have Ferreira's phone here, I'll call him." ”

Luke snorted.

Ferreira, a ranch veterinarian, worked with Selena's dad for many years.

Just now Joseph said that Ferreira is also in Dallas, and contacting Ferreira can also determine the situation.

Ferreira's phone was quickly connected.

Selena just said a few words, and turned on the phone on the hands-free and put it on Luke's side.

Ferreira was already on his way to pick up Joseph, but he didn't know why Drakes was so angry.

Luke just told him to get to Drakes as soon as possible to make sure he could contact his grumpy grandpa.

Even Robert was so respectful of Drex's temper that he could imagine how difficult it was for the old man to persuade.

Drakes was born with a violent temper that was difficult to control all the time, and when he went to his daughter Catherine's house, he would definitely quarrel with Robert every day, and his daughter and grandchildren would have a hard time.

Catherine also understood his thoughts, and when she had time, she let her three grandchildren go to the ranch for the weekend, and Drexes stayed at the ranch with peace of mind.

In the words of this stubborn old man, he was used to working and living on the ranch, and he did not need to go to Shackford to retire.

Drakes is indeed in good health, and there are almost ten people working on the ranch, and he is not afraid that no one will notify him if something happens.

However, the stubborn old man still has weaknesses.

He has been very partial to Luke's grandson since he was a child, and rarely reprimands.

For Claire and Joseph, the two little ones are completely doting.

If Claire and Joseph weren't just going to have fun on weekends, this stubborn old man would have spoiled his two grandsons.

For example, going to Dallas to see that kind of flying car show this time is definitely Joseph's idea, otherwise Drakes is in his early seventies, where would he be interested in watching this kind of show.

A few minutes later, Luke finally dialed Drakes' phone.

Without saying a few words, he could only helplessly listen to the blind sound coming from his mobile phone.

The stubborn old man was in a hurry by him and hung up the phone directly.

Selena: "I'm giving you a leave of absence?" ”

Luke sighed: "I'll just say hello to Elsa myself, my vacation is long gone." ”

If it had happened two days earlier, he could have taken advantage of the weekend to take a vacation.

Now he had to go through the back door and just report to Elsa to avoid an urgent case being sent to him.

If he is checked for attendance under special circumstances, Elsa will immediately issue him a leave note.

Of course, without the support of a hardcore boss, ordinary police detectives would not dare to play like this.

Luke drove all the way to the airport, booked the nearest flight, and boarded the plane an hour later.

Just after four o'clock in the afternoon, he came out of the Dallas-Fort Worth airport, got into a taxi outside the airport and headed straight for the hotel.

More than half an hour later, he entered a three-star hotel and knocked on the door of 507.

Drex's face appeared in the crack in the door.

Seeing Luke, he shook his hand in annoyance and left: "Why did you come back?" I'm not old yet, so you don't have to worry about me. ”

Luke followed into the house, closed the door casually, and put his arm around the old man's shoulder: "Grandpa, if I don't care about you, then there will be a problem." ”

The old man snorted, but did not refute the words.

Although he has a stubborn temper, he can distinguish between good and good.

Walking into the house, Luke and Drakes sat down, picked up a bottle of whiskey on the table and glanced at the old man: "I remember, the last time the doctor gave you a physical examination, he said that you should drink less alcohol and drink more wine and beer, right?" ”

Drakes' head tilted: "You care about me!" ”

But he immediately replied: "I'm patronizing and calling, haven't you drunk yet?" ”

Luke Waner went to the refrigerator and took out two bottles of beer, and handed the old man a bottle: "It's hot, extinguish the fire." ”

The old man couldn't help it.

Luke has been well-behaved and sensible since he was a child, not even when he was a bear child.

Every time he thought of Luke's parents who died young, the old man felt even more sorry for him, thinking that he had become so precocious and sensible because of the lack of parents.

In the old man's opinion, Texas boys should be wild from an early age.

Fighting, smoking, drinking, and flirting with girls, the old man's perception of Texas boys should grow up like this.

And Luke grew up, and these basically didn't touch.

If it weren't for the fact that Luke and Ximena got along in the last two years of middle school, the old man would have suspected that his eldest grandson had a problem with his orientation.

Therefore, the old man could not speak hard about Shangluk.

After two sips of cold beer, Luke spoke: "Grandpa, I'm rushing back, in order not to waste the ticket money, you can also tell me about the matter, right?" Besides, I am also a third-order police detective in the LAPD Serious Crime Unit, and the crime solving rate is ranked first in Los Angeles. If you really want to do something to someone, then I am also familiar with the legal provisions, and I am also very clear about the police handling process......"

Drakes raised his hand in surrender: "Stop!" I didn't really want to shoot anyone, you don't have to think about it so much. ”

Luke's words almost mean "Even if you do kill someone, I can help you clean the ground."

In the face of this unconditional support from his family, how can the old man resist.

The last thing he wanted was to make it difficult for his family, let alone let Luke do what he knew was breaking the law for himself.

Luke snickered in his heart,

He knows very well that his grandfather is a person who eats soft rather than hard.

Instead of trying to persuade him, it is better to start from the aspect of family affection, so that he can really calm down.

The old man, who sighed and relieved himself a little, finally told the story again.

Luke listened silently, even if there was a passage in the middle where the old man scolded the murderer of his old brother, he did not interrupt his narration.

It was only when the old man stopped talking and took a moment of breath that he asked, "Grandpa, do you have someone at the police station?" Otherwise, these on-site situations will not be handled. ”

The case was huge, and it took less than a day to get it.

In order to solve the case, the police department will definitely keep the details secret for the time being.

The old man snorted: "Among the people I know, there are juniors in the police station. ”

Luke: "Can you ask him to take me to the scene?" ”

The old man hesitated.

He was upset with himself, and he took a gun and killed whoever he wanted.

But to let Luke go on an adventure, he is not willing.
