AD.2154.8.15——

"Don't come here!"

Bang! Bang!

As Connor walked briskly into the living room, she heard the roar of a young man and the sound of a gun firing from the rooftop.

"Oh! Shet! Is that guy really a housekeeping android? The marksmanship is also too accurate. ”

"Hidden! Take cover! ”

Several SWAT officers who tried to approach the rooftop from a blind spot rolled back indoors.

[Confirm the type of firearm, Viper III semi-automatic pistol, discontinued.] 】

[Detroit SWAT was hit, blocked by body armor, not life-threatening. 】

[Extended Information: Due to the production of Element Zero, the Mass Effect Firearms and Shields technology are mainly used in space expansion and critical sectors, and have not yet been popularized on a large scale on Earth.] 】

Connor glanced over at the battlefield, turning his gaze to another obvious "crime scene" in the living room.

It was a large leather sofa stained with blood, and a crushed glass coffee table, on which the fragments of the glass coffee table sharded was a human figure drawn with white lines, and the humanoid "model" was now placed on the sofa, his face was gray, and there was a large blood stain on his chest.

[Identification, John, Phillips, forty-two, mechanical engineer, vital signs: faint.] 】

Connor rolled up her sleeves a little more and walked towards the "corpse".

"Hey, girl, instead of caring about a dead man, you're supposed to help us deal with the madman on the rooftop." The SWAT officer standing next to the sofa reminded her, but it didn't stop her from moving.

[Voiceprint Analysis, Anthony DeCarter, Detroit SWAT.] 】

[Explanation.] (Model)】

[Ignore.] (Rebellious)】

"According to Article 7 of the Regulations on the Administration of Androids, if an android without law enforcement authority commits an act of harming humans, it will be unconditionally dismantled and formatted, and the 'madman' in your mouth understands this," Connor half-crouched to examine the engineer's wounds: "If this premise is not true, then his current behavior will only be 'destroying property' and 'behavioral intimidation', and if he learns that he will not be destroyed, he will have a higher probability of surrendering." ”

"Okay, you're right, we don't want to confront a guy with ten rings of guns, but can't you save the dead?" The Decater SWAT seemed to have some words.

"Of course a dead man can't do it, but he's not dead." Connor responded, activating his multi-purpose and using "medical glue" on John Phillips.

[Confirmed that the site of the bullet, abrasion on the left shoulder, penetration of the right lung, abdominal penetration, abrasion on the left kidney, no fatal injuries.] 】

[Confirm Awakening: Adrenaline.] 】

[Estimated time of brain death: 3 minutes 44 seconds, 43 seconds, 42 seconds ......]

[Extended Information: Ability Adrenaline, greatly strengthens your strength, speed, and ability to resist attacks, lasts for 5 to 10 minutes, and after the duration ends, you will fall into a weakened state for 5 to 10 hours, and if you are too injured, you may fall into a state of suspended animation.] 】

"Not dead? Hah-oh! Halfway through his laughter, Decater was shocked by the sudden coughing of the "dead man".

"Ahem! Cough! Daniel, you-" Engineer John struggled to get up, but was held down by Connor with one hand.

"Please don't move, Mr. Phillips, I just used the medical glue on you, I think you should know its effect, if it doesn't work because of your violent movements, your life will be counted down again." Connor spoke quickly but clearly.

"Hah...... Of course, that weird thing about man, being a machine repairer......" John Phillips calmed down and said in a still inarticulate voice, "Please, don't hurt Daniel." ”

"I'll do my best, sir."] (Model)]

"Guilty shall be punished, sir."] (Rebellion)]

[No Promise.] 】

"No guarantees, sir." Connor shook her head, got up instead, and continued to search the house for clues under the surprised gaze of a SWAT officer.

[Confirmed: Mr. Phillips orders a T700 android information board.] 】

[Confirmed: Selfie video of Miss Phillips and Daniel.] 】

[Confirmed: Lady Phillips' new Buddha statue order record.] 】

[Mission Update: Go to the rooftop and rescue the hostages.] 】

"Bang!"

"Damn it! I said don't come here! I don't need any negotiators! ”

Connor tilted his head slightly to dodge the bullet that was fired at her head before she heard a T450 android named Daniel roar in this direction with his firearm brandished, and the ring on his forehead glowed red.

"Calm down! Daniel! Mr. Phelps isn't trying to replace you! Connor said to him from afar.

"I thought they—what did you say?" The circle on Daniel's forehead went out for a moment, and then it shone more and more fiercely: "Impossible! The T700 series is much more advanced than me, and when the new android arrives, I will be useless! ”

"But the T700 series are all female androids!" Connor responded.

"What...... Meaning? The aura on Daniel's forehead began to switch colors between red and yellow.

"Miss Phillips! You said that, right? 'Daniel is the most handsome android in the world, I'm going to marry him'. Connor took the opportunity to take two steps forward, turning to the girl before Daniel became alarmed.

"Woo...... Yes...... But Daniel shot my dad......" The girl sounded sad and scared in a crying tone.

"You, I'm ......" Daniel's fierce expression brought a hint of confusion.

"Mr. Daniel, could you please recall what is the most work you have done in this house? Is it all kinds of high-intensity physical work? For example, carrying fish tanks, sofas, pianos, and Buddha statues? Connor took the opportunity to take two more steps: "If they want to replace you, why don't they buy a more advanced model of male android?" As a bionic of the T800 series, I can responsibly tell you that the average output of this model is only one-fifth of that of the T850 series. ”

"But one family doesn't need two androids!" The halo on Daniel's forehead turned red again.

"So Mr. Phillips intends to give you to Miss Phillips!" Connor immediately picked it up.

"What...... Is it? Daniel's aura was even blue for a moment.

"You've served this family for so long that you can't stand the 'betrayal,' but again, because you've been together for so long, you don't notice that Miss Phillips is about to come of age," Connor gestured to the tearful girl who was being held hostage by Daniel, "She may soon fall in love, get married, and then leave the house and take you with her, and Mr. Phillips will naturally have to plan for her to leave." ”

"Woo woo woo ......" the girl cried and nodded.

"Hah...... Hahaha...... It turns out that I am the one who really doesn't trust my family? Daniel's aura changed from red to yellow and then to blue, and let go of Miss Phillips: "But I have killed the master, and it is too late to say anything." ”

Daniel slowly withdrew the gun pointed at Connor, pressing it against his jaw.

Touch!

Boom!

The twisted pistol flew far out of the rooftop, and Daniel was directly grabbed and pressed to the ground by Connor, who was instantly close to kicking the pistol.

The girl who was let go rushed into the house without looking back.

"You're so lucky, if you were stubborn just now, it's your head that flies out now." Connor said to Daniel, who had a helpless expression, "Also, because you don't have good marksmanship, Mr. Phillips is not dead." ”

"Daddy——!" The girl's cry of surprise from the living room also proves this.

"That's really...... That's great. Daniel's aura turned completely blue, and he lay motionless on the ground.

Connor maintained a grappling position, freeing one hand to signal the stunned SWAT officers to come and arrest the "prisoner".

【Mission Success】

At the same time, the Detroit Police Department, a group of logistics support personnel are watching the scene.

"I like this girl!"

"Calm down, she's a android."

"Well, I'll admit that this girl has what it takes to be one of us, but who's going to explain why she ate that goldfish?"
