When Connor opened her eyes, she saw a clean and tidy lakeside garden.

The beautiful white cobblestone path stretches from the foot to the crystal clear water of the lake, and the same white benches and sculptures are scattered on both sides of the road, and the ground is a lawn with the same height of plants, and many palm trees supporting huge "umbrella covers" appear on both sides from time to time, casting mottled shadows.

[Objective: Find Sophie, Matthew, or Amir.] A message appeared in front of her eyes.

Connor looked at the mission target and began to look around the park, but the Hawkeye system, which could quickly scan and analyze the information of objects in her field of vision, failed to activate, and after a moment's thought, she walked down the cobblestone path towards the lake.

When she arrived at the lake, Connor looked down at her own silhouette through her reflection, it was a standard Detroit patrol uniform, her white and pink shawl hair, soft facial features, and blue eyes softened the gray and black police uniform with a sense of slaughter, and the blue ring still existed on her forehead.

【……】

In this case, the "options" that should have appeared and guided her on how to achieve her goals did not appear.

This is a search mission, and the chance of the target appearing on the side of the road is greater.

Connor thought for a moment, not based on "options", before he began to make his way down the path along the lake.

Da, da.

As Connor walked, there was no sound in the entire "park" except for the sound of her own leather shoes tapping on the cobblestone path, as if everything was still.

"Whew...... Whew......"

After walking half a circle along the lake, Connor finally heard other voices than herself, and then, as the road turned, a flowerbed appeared beside the road. And in the gazebo in the middle of the flower garden, a little girl is sleeping soundly on the table.

She had the same pink and white hair color as Connor, wore a warm cotton dress with alternating red and white stripes, and wore pure white cotton socks over her slightly stubby legs, and most notably her sharp horns protruding from the sides of her head, and her tail that hung down from behind her and wagged back and forth.

【Find Sophie (√)】

At the same time as seeing her, the task of [Find Sophie] was cleared, but no new instructions appeared.

Targets can be asked about the whereabouts of other targets.

Connor hesitated for a moment, and strode towards the gazebo, intending to wake up the girl and ask about the whereabouts of the other two.

"You'd better not do that. As she entered the gazebo, a voice that was both familiar and unfamiliar sounded from behind.

Connor stopped and looked back to find that the voice was another girl, who looked slightly older than the sleeping girl, with short black hair and bright black eyes, wearing a small set of space armor with a gold color, and a stick figure of a cat's head on the helmet she was holding for some reason.

【Find Amir (√)】

"Why?" With no suggestion for action, Connor had to respond to her words herself.

"Because, if you touch 'yourself', our previous efforts will be wasted." Another voice joined the conversation.

The new girl was older and more poised than the other two, with short lilac hair, amethyst eyes, an angular, but still curved black armor, a heavy black shield in one hand, and a tactical goggle in the other.

【Find Matthew (√)】

[Objective: Speak with Emile and Matthew.] 】

Connor stared at the newly emerged, not at all like the mission, and reflexively said:

"Unbelievable."

"[To put it simply, you are ostensibly a prototype of Starlink's experiment to expand the range of android applications, but in fact you are the 'savior' we have chosen to solve the impending 'crisis'. 】”

With Sophie asleep and Amile seemingly reluctant to speak, it was up to Matthew to explain the current situation to Connor:

"You are the embodiment of Sophie, in words you can understand, your personality and logical circuits are copied from Sophie, but there is no memory of her, we cannot directly interfere with you from here, we can only provide you with some references in some branches of action choice. 】”

"If what you're saying is true, what's the matter with 'me'?" Connor gestured to Sophie, who was still lying on the table.

"[Because she played for a while after you appeared, she felt no pressure, so she wanted to create a second incarnation,] "Mathieu spread his hands: "[Obviously, she is not yet at the level of being able to 'transform into three clears in one gas', and after the birth of the second incarnation, she fell into a deep sleep. 】”

"......" Connor couldn't find a suitable evaluation for a while, maybe there was, but it was not suitable for "herself".

"[Your consciousness must have triggered some kind of condition,] "Matthew continued, "Although time is not an issue for us, I still want to hear what 'anomalous' you have encountered as soon as possible. 】”

“【GROX】。” Connor pronounced the word word by word: "Two anomalous androids mentioned this word, and I initially judged that it was some kind of virus that would cause androids to awaken themselves and develop hatred for humans, and I was about to report it to my superiors." ”

“【Grox？ Mathieu and Amir glanced at each other and turned back to Connor: "[It's okay, but in this case, it's not a big problem, I think this crisis is up to you...... and our backing will be able to solve it. 】”

"Do you know something?" Connor asked in a slightly confused tone.

"[Actually, you know the meaning of the word, but you can't," Matthew shook his head at her, "You can go back and work as usual, and we will continue to help you in the key action options.] 】”

"So, how do I get back?" Connor heard that the other party had a reason not to talk deeply, so she asked instead.

"[This...... It's up to you. Mathieu tilted her head to Sophie lying on the table: "[What is your 'mission' now?] 】”

“…… Chat with you guys. Connor glanced at the mission that had not changed at all.

"Oh, no wonder, although we are busy, we can still keep an eye on your side occasionally, but Sophie can't see it at all, and she won't wake up when you get back here, so she can only talk more here. Matthew raised his hand and touched Sophie's head and turned to Connor: "Then let's talk casually, for example, what do you think of David Anderson?" 】”

"A good police officer who is upright and reliable, but who for some reason is not in his accident and who has fallen into self-reproach and paranoia, I hope to have a good relationship with him and become friends with him if possible." Connor replied.

"[Uh-huh......]"
