When Karl and Marcus were looking at the painting together, lost in thought for different reasons, a glib voice sounded at the door, and then Leo Manfeld pushed open the studio door and walked in.
"Oh, Leo, 'Long time no see'," Karl turned his eyes from the canvas to him, deliberately emphasized a certain sentence, and asked with a tone of dissatisfaction and disappointment mixed with a little expectation: "What's the matter?"
"You know, I need some money." Leo's eyes contacted the old man for a moment, then quickly moved away and said.
Kangna noticed that after Marcus heard this sentence, the halo on his forehead instantly turned red, and then slowly turned back. She made a tactical gesture of "pay attention to that" to Anderson, and Anderson responded with "I understand."
".
"I think..." The trace of expectation in the old man's eyes disappeared, "I just gave it to you once last week."
"I've spent all my money, can't I?" Leo responded in a rogue tone.
"That money, even at your squandering speed, is enough to last a month," Karl's expression became serious: "Are you going to get into the 'red stuff' or gambling again?"
"Hey! Dad, you can't accuse me wrongly. I stopped touching them a long time ago." Leo defended with his eyes widened.
"Then tell me where your money went?" The old man looked directly at him without giving an inch.
"Anyway, I didn't buy red ice! If you don't believe me, you can give me a test!" Leo said confidently.
"Maybe so, but I won't give you money, Marcus, to see you off." Karl closed his eyes, shook his head, and turned his wheelchair to face Leo.
"Hey, what are you seeing off? I am your son, and this is my home!" Leo yelled and tried to chase after him, but was stopped by Marcus.
"Master Leo, please don't embarrass me." Marcus' strong body and arms prevented Leo from easily breaking through, but his attitude was quite gentle.
"Who's got to talk to you, a plastic toy?" Leo pushed Marcus hard, but it had no effect due to the power gap.
No, it still had an effect. The halo on Marcus' forehead flashed red again, this time lasting longer.
"If you continue to do this, it will be bad for everyone." Although the red light flashed, Marcus' tone still did not change much.
"Stop talking nonsense! Get out of the way!"
"I'm sorry, but I obey."
"What's going on? Is it confirmed? Arrest?" As there was quarreling and pushing, Anderson asked Kangna quietly.
[Confirmation information, T850 android "Marcus" has been infected with the 'Grox' virus, but does not show any abnormal behavior. 】
[Confirmed information: Reporter: Leo Manfield. The reporter claimed that he and his father were attacked by domestic robots, and requested the nearest police officer to go to the rescue. 】
He actually came prepared? Looking at the aggressive Leo over there and Marcus who repeatedly gave in but didn't let him get close to Karl, Connor couldn't make up his mind for a moment.
[Received the police and arrested Leo Manfield for lying about the intelligence. (Model)]
[Failed to answer the police and took Marcus away on the grounds of investigating abnormal androids. (Rebellion)]
【Just wait and see what happens.】
"No, if we intervene now, there is no reason to take away two people at the same time," Kangna showed Leo's report information to Anderson: "Forward it to other nearby patrol officers, and when they arrive at the scene, we will adapt accordingly."
"Uh-huh, then I'll listen to you." Anderson glanced at Kangna twice for no apparent reason.
————
"What's up! You plastic toy!"
"What else would you do besides staring at me? Hit me, hit me in the face."
"See, Dad? No matter how you educate it and take care of it, it is just a fake that must obey the settings."
"I am your son!"
Leo Manfeld pushed, pushed, and even beat Marcus, but Marcus just endured it, occasionally dodging and blocking his too insidious attacks.
Obviously, Leo had a "careful" plan to go home to ask for money this time. Just from his desperate targeting of Marcus, it can be seen that he has a certain understanding of "abnormal bionic people". He probably believes that as long as he passes
Treating Marcus badly can cause him to show "abnormality" in attacking humans, and then be "handled" by the Detroit police who are working hard to solve this problem at this time.
After all, although no android has killed a human yet, even if it is just injury, the android who does this can only end up being formatted and scrapped, and without Marcus, who he thinks
"The biggest reason why his father doesn't give him money" is that he can get what he wants and get a large amount of money.
"Sorry, Marcus, I know you want to hit him, but please bear with me for the time being." Carl had already turned his wheelchair and was looking at Leo who was beating Marcus unilaterally with a sad face: "I understand.
My son, he would do this kind of behavior that is not in line with his usual style, there must be some purpose, you can't go along with his wishes."
"It's no use, old man," Leo stopped shouting: "If he doesn't fight back, I will just beat it and scrap it. This behavior is at best like dismantling a piece of furniture in my home, isn't it? A plastic toy?"
Kangna looked over there and sighed silently. Leo wanted to force Marcus to be "abnormal", but she didn't know that Marcus was actually "abnormal" already. This kind of crazy provocation seemed to be chained, but in fact
The behavior of ferocious beasts that are not locked at all is generally called "seeking death."
[Confirmation information, Mr. Leo Manfield’s report has been accepted by other recent patrol officers.]
When Kangna saw this message, Leo's actions paused for two or three seconds. Apparently, this message also appeared on his multi-tool after changing his name.
After a short pause, Leo's movements became crazy. He even started to grab various tools in the studio to attack Marcus. Marcus didn't check for a moment and was hit in the head by the plaster statue he threw. The blue
As his blood splattered, he became unsteady on his feet.
"Marcus!" Carl's eyes widened: "Stop! Leo, we can talk again!"
"Hey! It's too late, old man, no one can save it today!" Leo seemed to have fallen into some kind of crazy mood, laughing while looking for other things that could be used as weapons, but because everything that could be thrown nearby was destroyed by him
He threw it out, so he turned his attention to the canvas and easel where Marcus painted before.
"Die! Plastic toy!" Leo picked up the easel and smashed it against Marcus's bleeding head.
bump!
The easel was knocked away by a blow before it hit Marcus. A pair of strong arms stretched out directly after pushing the easel away, and grabbed Leo's collar fiercely.
"I'm angry." Marcus put his face close to Leo's. On his face, which was dripping with blue blood, the red light that kept flashing was extremely dazzling.
Boom! "Don't move! Put down the hostages!"
The door to the studio was kicked open, and two unfamiliar Detroit patrol officers rushed in with guns drawn.
Marcus slowly turned his head and showed a scary smile to the patrolman at the door: "Oh, you're good to go, then--"
Sa!
Kangna jumped out from the corner and made a sliding shovel, knocking Marcus off balance. Then he turned over with a kite and used the force to push his arm to the ground. As for Leo, who was originally being carried by him, he flew out flatly.
,well...he can't die anyway.
"Uh, you are-"
Click. Click.
When the two patrolmen were at a loss but still pointed their guns at Marcus, Anderson approached them from behind like a ghost, and fired the two guns with lightning speed:
"It's none of your business, go back and continue patrolling."
