Chapter 506

~2 min read 372 words

Sofia thought about that handwriting:

"Is that important?"

The android waited for a moment before responding, then wrote:

【Previously my goal was to follow Anderson, and he abandoned me.】

【Now, I must search for my own meaning. Only I possess the data your people have asked me for. If I give it to you...】

"You will be discarded."

Without waiting for 1360 to write the rest, Sofia said it for it.

1360 nodded and put down the pen.

1360 might not be a necessary team member, but perhaps an anomaly to be considered...

Sofia pursed her lips, then looked at the other party calmly and asked:

"Do you want a goal?"

Hearing this question, 1360's shell obviously fell into stillness.

Several seconds later, it wrote a short word on the paper.

【Yes.】

There's a chance... Sofia smiled slightly.

"Recently, the Foundation is considering looking at the use of anomalous items more openly."

"As part of this, to deal with special threats, we are forming a task force."

"It will be partially composed of anomalous individuals, and, in short, you are one of our top choices."

Sofia interlaced her fingers, placed them on the interrogation table, and looked at 1360.

At this moment, she really hoped 1360 wasn't an android, but a living creature, an individual who could express its inner heart through changes in facial muscles.

That way she could read the expression on its face—shock? anger? or deep in thought?

Finally, 1360 wrote:

【I will consider this.】

Sofia nodded:

"I ask for nothing more right now."

"If you have any questions or concerns, you can have the security personnel pass the information to me."

"We will see each other again in two weeks."

After speaking, Sofia's butt escaped the uncomfortable stool; she turned her steps and walked toward the direction of the door.

Before the security personnel on the side could open the door for the Level 4 clearance holder, Sofia heard sharp tapping sounds from behind.

The corners of Sofia's mouth curled up slightly, then returned to a straight line in an instant, and remained tense.

She turned around and looked at 1360, who was tapping the paper.

【Thank you.】

The android used paper instead of a mouth, saying so.
