——AD.2155.2.2——

Detroit, 10th District.

Connor and Anderson have completed their disguises and are tracking Tracy and the suspected abductor's droid from afar.

Anderson changed into a half-worn overalls, a goose-yellow coat, and a light-colored velvet scarf around his neck, while Connor wore jeans, a dark red sweater, and a gray velvet hat, all of whom looked very much in line with the neighborhood's economic conditions.

As for the conspicuous police car, it has been set up to drive automatically and leave first.

"The T650 android was very enthusiastic, and Tracey was hesitant, but not resolute, initially judging that she was confused about where to go after escaping the Red and Blue nightclub, and the abductor caught it." Connor whispered as she grabbed Anderson's arm.

"Hmm, um, but where's Vera, the other android with her?" Anderson looked a little uncomfortable.

"The two of them are 'at large' and can be easily detected at the same time...... Although this level of circumvention is of little use to me. Connor pulled the brim of her hat, and underneath it was the slightly obscured aura of the android.

"Ahem, then do we count this as a violation of the law?" Anderson coughed.

"My mission is to find the source of the anomalous androids, not to capture every anomalous android, but you, sir," Connor paused, "It can be considered dereliction of duty." ”

"Hey ......"

"Be careful!" Connor pulled Anderson back to the corner he had just passed: "When he was leading the way, he was still very careful to keep an eye on whether he was being followed, and it seems that there is indeed a problem." ”

"But this level of vigilance is of no use to you, isn't it?"

"Of course."

After a stop-and-go and detour, the anomalous android who appeared to be a kidnapper finally led Tracey to her destination, a large building separated by barbed wire from the surrounding blocks.

Seeing him dancing in front of him, most of them were preaching how safe and secure this place was, and because it was indeed a secret place, Tracey had a heartwarming expression on her face.

[Call for support, surround and arrest.] (Model)】

[Sneak in, capture the thief and capture the king.] (Rebellious)】

[Ask Anderson.] 】

"Sir, what do you think?" Connor asked Anderson in a low voice.

"I think there's going to be something strange about this," Anderson said, staring at the building, "Can you confirm where it belongs?" ”

[Confirmation information: Hansen's Mercy Hospital, owned by Mr. Mike Hansen, began construction in 2150, but was abandoned due to the invention of medical glue when it was about to be completed, and the original site has not been used for other purposes.] 】

"This is a hospital that is not officially operational, sir," Connor replied, "and if there are discarded medical devices in it, it could indeed be a den for abductors of androids." ”

Anderson looked at the building thoughtfully: "This is strange, if it is abducted with good living conditions, this kind of place similar to an abandoned building is obviously not satisfactory to everyone, this is just for them to change places to hide, could it be that they are not actually abducting, but really providing a hiding place?" ”

"Then let's sneak in and observe," Connor decided after a moment's thought, "After all, you don't need a search warrant to enter the unfinished building." ”

————

Anderson and Connor's infiltration went undetected, or rather, upon arriving at the house, the "abductor" lost his guard and ignored everything else in his interest in introducing Tracy to the house.

Judging from the conversations that came out one after another, one of them was indeed Tracey from the Red and Blue Nightclub, while the other person, listening to the voice, seemed to be a sunny and clear male, but the tone inexplicably gave people a sense of comical.

"Oh~Come on~Ms. Tracy~"

"The ......"

"Look at that~ This is the operating room originally prepared by this hospital, which is quite soundproof, and it is best to use it as a bedroom~"

"I don't think androids need to sleep......"

"And here ~ it's a morgue ~ it's quite shady ~ it couldn't be better to use it as a pantry~"

"Androids don't need food either......"

"Oh~ why do you keep interrupting Leif? Do you have any grievances against Lef! ”

"No, I don't, please put the knife down in your hand......"

"What knife? Oh my gosh, Leif forgot it was still in his hands. ”

After eavesdropping outside the window with Anderson for a while, Connor came to the common conclusion: it was probably an android who had been burned out of the logic module by "Grox" when it was infected.

"What to do, do you want to arrest him? Still is? Connor listened to the commotion coming from the building and asked Anderson.

"Even if we want to be arrested, we have to drive a car with sound insulation, otherwise we will be killed." Anderson seemed to be joking, but he seemed to be telling the truth.

"Mr. Leif, I appreciate you providing us with accommodation, but there are still some questions that need to be answered." Voices continued to be heard in the building.

"Oh ~ question ~ of course, Leif is willing to answer ~"

"You said you had provided housing for hundreds of androids in a year...... "Tracey hesitated, "Where are they?" ”

Leif didn't answer for a moment, which made Connor worry for Tracey a little.

What if he rushes at you with the aforementioned "knife" and yells "You'll see them soon"?

No, wait, which movie or scene was that?

"Aha! Leif is stupid! ”

The man's voice resounded, and it didn't turn the other way Connor had expected.

"Mr. Reif?"

"Leif was just summarizing all the hiding places and was about to tell you all about it~ But if you think about it, it's not necessary at all~"

"Uh......"

"So, Leif decided to say so~" Leif said in a high-pitched tone like in the newspaper: "Leif knows all the hiding places in this city~ Leif can guarantee that there will be no one else in the hideout introduced by each android~ But Leif does not guarantee that there will be other androids who are not introduced by Leif to find these places~"

"Hmm...... Thanks, I see. Probably a fool was more credible, and Tracey's voice was much more relaxed: "I'll go get Vera here later." ”

"No thanks~ Leif's mission is to provide shelter for all homeless androids~" Leif replied: "Oh ~ oh no, ~ to make sure that there is no one else in every hideout, so Leif can't stay here~"

"Ah, Mr. Leif be careful!"

Boom! Boom! Crash! Boom!

The building was noisy, and it sounded like someone had hit a wall and knocked over a whole bunch of furniture.

"Uh, Vice Captain, we may have run for nothing this time, do you want to evacuate first?"

Perhaps because the current situation was so stupid, the suggestion of action was not brushed out at all, and Connor had to suggest it to Anderson himself.

"No, we'll have to talk to this 'Leif', he obviously has a lot of information we need to know." Anderson shook his head.

Yes...... Yes, "all hideouts" and "hundreds of androids" are indeed important information.

But who will negotiate with him?
