Chapter 72

***

After receiving information from Lucifer, Rene and I quickly solved the case, on which it would seem that we will be working for another month. Malcolm gave out all the stashes, passwords, and locations of the Los Angeles smugglers. He was heavily involved with crime. And we appreciated it, as did the local police department. We covered the entire network throughout the city.

After that, I feel that many will receive buns, even Rene and I over a telephone conversation with Gordon, after the report, a vacation and a bonus were promised.

We were given a few days to clean up the paperwork and deal with the local cops, and then we had to get back to Gotham, so our trip was coming to an end. Lucifer was even a little upset about it. Although I think that the factor of his dearest relative, that somewhere here wanders in search of her son, also played here.

Another good thing that I got is a new level. After a couple of operations, where I took part, a lot of experience flew to me and I gained a new level and finally finished off "Charisma" and got "Leadership". And another twenty-five free points for a complicated case. You will need to think about what to buy on them.

Although it is worth noting that I should also have given the "hamster" skill. I managed to unnoticeably unscrew several boxes of weapons, so now I have an RPG and several machine guns with full ammunition in my enlarged "Inventory" (I somehow missed the increase to 8 tons of capacity). They did not notice the loss, because Los Angeles, although it was a quiet city, was very rich in weapons. It was prepared at the points that we covered for transmission to Gotham, Star City, Chicago, San Francisco and a number of other cities in the United States. Although, in addition to this, Espinoza let me slip over a glass of beer that the tied losers got talked and received valuable information on other cases and even on the case of murdered detectives. The fact that they were soaked by the Chinese is pure coincidence. One misunderstanding and a couple of unnecessary phrases became the reason for the worries of this small group of Chinese, they flared up and shot the old cops.

Sadly, it happens. They died because of a stupid accident. And the murder of the Chinese was attributed to a showdown between gangs. And apparently here they have already tried from "Argus" to make everything look exactly like this.

Therefore, we did not talk to Gordon about the special detachment of the pro-government group. Most likely they even started listening to us.

They saw us off, we can say "the whole world." Detectives Decker and Espinoza, their captain, Lucifer and Masikin, even it seems Amadiel got in their ranks, only we met for the first time and did not speak among ourselves. It didn't happen. It is a pity, it will be necessary to somehow make up for lost time.

Maze, by the way, gave me a small arsenal of edged weapons: throwing knives, a pair of swords, sais, nunchucks and even shurikens. What I actually was glad and thanked her. Still, demons are not so bad, unless of course you are interesting to them.

And then we flew away. Thus ended our adventure in Los Angeles with Rene.
