Chapter 758: Claire’s Choice and Clarice’s Identity

A moment later, Clarice’s results were displayed on the tablet. Everything was still normal.

Recalling various details of his contact with Clarice, a scent in Luke’s memory suddenly floated through his mind.

After comparing it many times, he said with a smile, “It’s you? That’s right; if you have that ability, your guts wouldn’t be small.”

An hour later, Selina dragged Claire out of the training room.

Claire was no longer hyper. She stretched out a trembling hand toward Luke. “Help, Luke! Selina wants to tire me to death.”

Luke said with a smile, “If she doesn’t tire you out, you won’t be able to sleep tonight. You have to thank her.”

Claire was desperate. “God, there’s definitely something wrong with the two of you. Why are you talking so much like each other? There’s no chance for Karen... Um, why are you looking at me?”

Luke looked away and took a sip of his tea before he picked up his tablet again. “Go take a shower. We’ll discuss the volunteer work schedule when you come out.”

Claire suddenly came back to life and dashed into her room. “Give me five minutes.”

Looking at Luke, Selina asked with a faint smile, “Miss Karen is indeed up to no good. She even bribed Claire.”

Luke said, “Hmph, the most she can get is my body. Don’t even think about getting my heart.”

Selina: “Huh?”

Luke smiled. “I’m kidding. You should take a shower too. I have something important to tell you after Claire goes to bed.”

Selina snorted. “You’ve become terrible at changing the topic recently. You should practice more.”

A few minutes later, both women finished their showers.

Luke and Claire discussed the schedule for her fieldwork training and volunteer work.

Claire thought for a moment, then said, “I’ve been thinking about it for the past two days. Being a police officer actually isn’t a job I like.”

Luke and Selina didn’t say anything and listened attentively.

Claire’s expression turned serious as well. “During this time, the police training made me realise that I’m actually not used to this sort of work that focuses on discipline and hierarchy. I prefer to be free. It’s just that I met Karen and Hux there, and they really plan to become police officers. I also wanted to see if I can meet Batman, so...”

She smiled in embarrassment.

Luke didn’t laugh at her. “Have you thought about what you want to do in the future? What are your short-term and long-term goals?”

Claire tilted her head and thought for a moment. “My short-term goal should be to finish university. I’ll do my best to finish my university course in three years and get a degree. My long-term goal... Hehe, does being an artist count?”

Luke asked, “What kind of artist?”

The arts were too broad.

Painting, photography, sculpture, film, music, literature, and even extreme sports could be associated with the performing arts.

Claire said, “I’m mainly considering two things: singing and dancing.”

Luke smiled. “Cheerleading captain?”

Claire: “Yes. I like to challenge myself to accomplish difficult targets. I want to stand under the bright lights and look at the scenery from there.”

In the end, under Luke’s silent gaze, she still chose to tell the truth. “Fine, the truth is that I’ve always wanted to be a celebrity, but I’ve never learned acting. I have a foundation in singing and dancing.”

Luke asked, “So, you won’t miss this volunteer opportunity?”

Claire nodded decisively. “That’s right. It’s good to see for myself what a singer has to deal with, and confirm beforehand that I don’t hate this life.”

Luke was satisfied.

He didn’t think that Claire was suited for a job as a police officer.

Actually, he himself wasn’t really suited to be a police officer.

The reason he was doing well was because of his motivation to get experience and credit points, as well as the ever present sense of danger.

He knew that even when he wasn’t around in the movies, the superheroes would save the world.

But what if something went wrong? Could he just sit around and wait for death with his family?

As a loyal fan of the first rule of safety, he would never place all his and his family’s hopes on superheroes.

He had never forgotten the ordinary people who died in the war between heroes and villains.

He also didn’t want his family and himself to end up like those people who died without a word.

He also wouldn’t denounce superheroes the way some people did.

Without them, the world would end and nobody would survive.

Denouncing a superhero was just a way for ordinary people to vent their grief. He didn’t need that.

He wanted to become a “strong” person who had enough resources to protect his family.

Based on his current progress, he should be able to achieve this goal in one to three years, enough to keep up once the curtain opened.

Claire had also made a major decision in her life: she would leave the police academy and start her short stint as a volunteer as she officially came into contact with the work and lives of celebrities.

After Claire returned to her room, Luke gestured at Selina.

She sat down next to him, and he said in a low voice, “Has Gold Nugget felt anything unusual when Clarice touched Claire? Like energy or something else?”

After talking to Gold Nugget, Selina shook her head. “Nothing unusual. They haven’t interacted much, and Gold Nugget hasn’t noticed this girl.”

Luke said, “Have it think back carefully.”

Selina hummed in assent, then asked, “Is she a superhuman?”

Only someone with a superpower could make him so cautious and stop her from shaking hands with Clarice.

Luke nodded. “Remember, try not to have any physical contact with her. We saw her ability not long ago.”

Selina was surprised. “Who? Wait, let me think. We saw a woman with a superpower recently?”

Luke nodded with a smile.

Selina thought for a moment. “Is she the superhuman who pretended to be Sanchez and Harrison?”

Luke chuckled. “I’m eighty percent sure it’s her.”

Selina thought for a moment and said, “She can take someone else’s appearance, so Clarice’s identity might not be real, right?”

Luke narrowed his eyes. “Yes. That’s why Gold Nugget has to follow you at all times to ensure that she won’t impersonate you.”

Selina said, “She won’t pretend to be you, will she? You danced with her for quite a while.”

Luke sneered. “Maybe that’s why she ran over to see us today. But Gold Nugget will definitely confirm my identity.”

He then touched Selina’s hand.

She shivered and exclaimed softly, but her expression was still calm. “Fine, Gold Nugget said that it knows how to confirm it’s you.”

Luke chuckled. “That’s good.”

As for Claire, the two of them weren’t worried.

Gold Nugget No. 2 was always with Claire and had never left.

The two clones could communicate telepathically and had yet to be restricted by distance.
