Chapter 654 Your Friend's Mother Is so Tired

Don't think it's a joke.

Being caught by the American police, trivial matters can indeed be let go with a few verbal warnings, which is similar to being criticized for spitting.

But it angered the police, strictly enforced the law, and sent him to the detention room without any problems.

The two of them came out of the Spanish-speaking community and looked at the chaos around them, almost sighing in unison.

Luke was the first to ask, "What are you sighing for?"

Selena: "I think it's fortunate that my parents chose Shackford and honestly found a job on the ranch. Here, I'm afraid it's hard to have a chance to succeed! How about you?"

Luke: "It does take too much effort to break free from this environment and become a talent. However, what I want to say is that once there is a riot, this is probably one of the starting areas."

Selena shook her head: "We can't stop this, it's up to God to see the old man."

Luke nodded in agreement.

If there is no subsequent earthquake, these little chaos will gradually become silent like the silt that has been turned up at the bottom of a pond.

So, it all depends on God's mood.

When he came home at night, Luke looked at the experience points he had gained and smiled bitterly: This is a big joke.

What the hell is it that the little thieves who catch and steal small shops and households all day can earn a small thousand experience points!

Are there really so many potential criminals in Los Angeles? He also felt powerless.

When he got home, Luke didn't even bother to get too much food, so he just stuffed the marinated stuff into the oven and spread it out on the sofa.

He was full of energy, but his spirit was a little tired from being tortured by those wonderful creatures.

Fortunately, Claire had gone home long ago, pulling him to chat, and Luke simply told her these wonderful things as jokes.

Claire laughed when she heard it, which made Luke feel happy too.

Sometimes, it doesn't matter if you can bring happiness to your family and friends, and encounter some strange things.

Luke also talked about the news he saw today, but Claire's face was strange: "No. Why didn't I see the news?"

Luke was stunned: "No?"

Claire shook her head decisively.

After thinking for a while, he said, "By the way, I met a friend when I participated in the national cheerleading competition for middle school students. She seemed to say that she was going to San Francisco, so I asked her."

Luke: "If she is an ordinary family, she probably won't hear much news."

Claire took out her mobile phone and rummaged for the number, and said, "Her mother's boyfriend is the president of a big company in San Francisco, and he is very rich."

Luke: ...Your friend's mother is so boring!

Claire said a few words and hung up the phone: "She said she didn't hear such news. Her mother's boyfriend is going to San Francisco tomorrow, and she will take a plane together for a vacation. Unfortunately, I still need to familiarize myself with the environment in Los Angeles."

Luke could only interrupt her fantasy: "If there is no earthquake, it's fine for you to play for a few days, but don't go now."

Claire's face turned solemn.

She knows Luke very well, he never jokes around in business.

Even on April Fool's Day every year, his jokes are innocuous and purely for errands.

"Should I remind her and her future stepfather not to go to San Francisco?" Claire hesitated.

It is very taboo to interfere with other people's private itinerary.

But if an earthquake is really going to happen in San Francisco, does she just watch her friends enter the dangerous area?

Luke raised his hand and took the tablet: "Wait for me to check the information on the man on TV at noon."

With that said, he quickly entered the information of Caltech, Lawrence Hayes on the tablet.

After watching for a while, his face became solemn: "The man on the TV is a professor at Caltech who has been engaged in earthquake research. It is said that they have made some progress in earthquake prediction in recent years, and can predict a certain limit to a limited extent. A small number of earthquakes."

Claire thought for a while: "Is his prediction accurate or not?"

Luke: "It's definitely not that accurate, otherwise he should be the world's top expert, and I don't need me to check his information. But his words must have a chance to come true."

Claire was confused: "Then shall I call Blake?"

Luke frowned and raised his hand again: "I'll talk to this professor."

This time, he got up and walked to the backyard, talking for a while before walking back.

Claire: "How is it?"

Luke: "It's best to tell your friend not to go to San Francisco, and not to stay in high-rise buildings in Los Angeles. Well, you too. If possible, don't go into the city center and high-rise buildings these days."

Claire: "Is what the professor said true?"

Luke shook his head: "I just asked him how sure he was in his prediction this time. He said that there is a 90% chance that a higher-level earthquake will occur."

Claire wondered: "You believe him when he says it?"

Luke glanced at her: "Because I said, as long as his prediction is accurate this time, whether it happens or not, I will donate a sum of money to his earthquake research project."

Claire: ...well, having money does solve a lot of problems.

There is no one on Luke's side who needs to be notified.

Just called Ginny and told her there might be an earthquake and told her to stay in a low building lately.

Ginny asked a few questions in surprise, and then understood that Luke's source was uncertain and could not be hyped.

It's hard to say whether it's spreading rumors to create turmoil, or whether it's a kind reminder to everyone.

In many cases, disasters are not as serious as knowing the consequences of disasters in advance.

Disaster news spreads by ten thousand, and its severity will change from the first one to the last one hundred or even ten thousand. Small incidents can also cause great chaos.

Among Luke's relatives in his previous life, there was someone who could eat iodized salt for ten years. ——The time at his house was better. After two years of eating, he can continue to buy salt.

Therefore, this kind of uncertain news cannot be spread indiscriminately.

Claire called her friend Blake anyway, but from the look on her face it didn't seem like much.

Luke hugged her and comforted: "This is just an uncertain news, you just need to do your best."

Claire nodded gloomily, but said nothing.

Luke continued: "If there is an earthquake, if you are sure it is safe, try to rush home and don't go out."

His house is a bungalow, and there are no tall trees or telephone poles within a few dozen meters around it. It is indeed the safest place in the event of an earthquake.

Claire was helpless: "Didn't you say it's just a guess?"

Luke patted her head: "I can't control others, but I can control you, who made you my sister."

Claire couldn't refute.

At night, Luke went out for a walk again and came back before three in the morning.

This time out, the harvest was very small.

The bugs that were placed in the houses of several well-informed gang bosses yesterday were not fruitful, and everyone was discussing the chaos caused by today's earthquake.

And there is very little news about the out-of-town outlaws that Luke is most concerned about.
