Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 2025: Unknown Teleportation, Doing Whatever You Want

Sandra wasn’t easy to fool. She immediately asked, “What about you? You’re not the British police. Don’t tell me you want to catch those terrorists on your own?”

Selina rolled her eyes. “No way. It’s just that there are a few old clients here, and I might need to look after them a bit. Don’t worry, I’ll arrange for someone to do it.”

I’ll let Luke know right away, but I never said it wouldn’t be me, the director murmured inwardly.

After ten minutes of wrangling over the phone, Sandra finally gave in.

!!

She was worried about her eldest daughter, but she couldn’t tie Selina up and take her away with her husband and youngest daughter.

The truth was that Selina threatened to have the bodyguards forcibly escort them to the car if they didn’t leave.

So, Sandra could only curse d*mn rich people nonstop and let the four bodyguards escort them to the car and head for France.

Selina hung up and shook her head at the ringing in her ears. If she had known, she wouldn’t have fed her mother so much Life 1; the scolding Selina had gotten was enough to make her eardrums burst.

At that moment, Darcy stopped the red Volvo, and the three of them walked into an old factory on the side of the road.

The old guard’s head was turned around by Darcy’s coaxing. He really thought that they were college students who were doing some sort of environmental study, and let them in.

Dr. Jane didn’t look like a student, but she could pass as their academic adviser.

Selina’s methods were even simpler. She stopped the car and had the dog head play up to the old man.

When the old man looked away to stroke the dog’s head with a smile, Selina swaggered inside.

After she left the old man’s line of sight, the dog head immediately ran away.

The old man couldn’t catch up, and stopped after calling out to it twice.

Who knew, this obedient dog might come out again in a while. At that time, he would feed it something tasty.

Hm, it had been really nice to rub that head. The old man rubbed his hands together with a smile.

Gold Nugget caught up with Selina and whined unhappily.

Selina said, “Alright, it was just a head rub. It’s not like I was asking you to mate with him. I’ll wash your dog head ten times with disinfectant when we get back, alright?”

Gold Nugget: … You b*stard! Who would want that sort of compensation?

At that moment, Selina was wearing wide yellow lenses so that the projection signal was more stable and clear.

Then, she sent Luke a message. “Notice anything strange?”

Far away in New York, Luke immediately replied, “You just released the drones. There won’t be any results so soon.”

Selina asked, “Don’t tell me Thor is somewhere around here?”

Luke looked at the data that was constantly being updated. “There’s no record of the Bifrost ever appearing in London… Wait, these readings match the characteristics of space teleportation.”

Selina asked, “Thor really came down?”

Luke said, “I don’t think so, but there are indeed signs of space fluctuations there. Be more vigilant.”

Selina’s eyes lit up. “Are you saying that aliens will appear?”

Luke said, “It’s only Dr. Jane and the other two, as well as four kids. Let me check… One of them is indeed a kid from the neighborhood. There’s been no news of anything unusual there recently.”

Selina suddenly sent him a message. “Something’s up.”

Luke immediately focused on the surveillance feed from the dozen or so drones and saw what she was referring to.

A little boy placed his hand on the front of a cement truck in the factory and slowly raised his hand. The truck, which weighed almost 20 tons, rose up.

Selina couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Strength-type superhuman?”

“I don’t think so,” Luke replied immediately.

Given his understanding of how the human body exerted strength, he could tell at a glance that the boy had just casually raised his hand.

He could easily lift a car that weighed 20 tons, but the ground under his feet wasn’t disturbed at all. This wasn’t possible, unless the boy was the reincarnation of Superman.

The next moment, Selina gave her answer. “…Fine, it seems he isn’t. At least, it isn’t a strength-type superpower.”

That was because the boy had already let go, and the cement truck was floating in the air.

It was as strange as an elephant suddenly swimming in the air, but that was just the beginning.

The kids took Darcy and the other two up a spiral staircase and threw a bottle down from the fourth floor.

Then, the bottle suddenly disappeared between the first and second floors.

A few seconds later, the bottle appeared at the fifth floor and fell again, disappearing between the first and second floors.

Everybody’s heads went up and down as they watched the bottle fall, disappear, and reappear.

Looking at the situation and analyzing the readings on the virtual screen, Luke immediately said to Selina, “Don’t wander around. This map indicates the areas with previous movements, which should be safe for now.”

Selina asked, “Are you afraid that I’ll disappear like that bottle?”

Luke said, “Trash isn’t afraid of poison and radiation, but what about you? Hm, you should wear an unmarked suit, which will be a little safer.”

Selina: “…You’re really naggy.”

Even as she complained, she immediately took out an optical camouflage curtain from her personal space to conceal herself. Then, she put on a suit and turned invisible before she put away the curtain.

This took her 20 seconds, and she then heard Luke say, “You can release the android now.”

Selina was stunned. “What are you planning?”

Luke said, “Dr. Jane went missing while you were changing.”

Selina perked up. “Where is she? I’ll look for her.”

Luke said, “Just rest. If you go missing, I’ll have to get Big Dipper to look for you.”

Selina snorted and didn’t insist on looking for Dr. Jane herself.

She knew Luke’s personality. There was a vast difference in the way he treated acquaintances and close friends and family.

Even if Dr. Jane was Thor’s girlfriend, Luke would never let anyone else take unnecessary risks for her.

That was how obstinate a narrow-minded person for whom safety was number one was.

By the time Darcy realized that her mentor was missing, the android which Luke was controlling had already gone back and forth several times in the hallway where Dr. Jane had gone missing.

He used all sorts of equipment, but still couldn’t find her.

However, according to the readings, Dr. Jane might have entered a temporary space portal. After she was teleported away, the portal disappeared.

It wasn’t impossible.

In fact, some things that were dropped from the stairs in that neverending fall sometimes didn’t reappear.

This was how uncertain space teleportation was.

At Luke’s firm order, Selina left early, and the security guards she had called over brought Darcy out.

Was this illegal? Nope.

Luke had already mobilized his connections to buy this abandoned factory a while ago.

Under the law, the owner had the right to refuse entry of unrelated people to his property.

You could do whatever you wanted when you had money.
