"Sorry, no staff from the TV station are accepting interviews right now."
"The TV station is temporarily closed and reporters are not allowed to enter."
"No, not even the TV station's own reporters."
When Anderson drove to Detroit TV Station 1 in District 1, many troublemakers and reporters who came after hearing the news were already surrounding the door of the building, and colleagues from the police department arrived earlier because of the closer distance.
A bright yellow "No Entry" holographic cordon has been put up to prevent anyone from entering.
This resulted in those media reporters who wanted to grab the news could only circle the building and guard the outsiders.
Obviously, reporters from the First Television Station are conducting interviews on a first-come-first-served basis. Once Star Alliance determines the matter, they can just cut and trim the interview records and publish them as first-hand news.
When Anderson and Conner got out of the car and walked towards the radio station building, reporters who had no idea at all immediately swarmed over like ants smelling the sweet smell.
"Mr. David Anderson! Do you think this incident is related to Red Ice? Can androids also go crazy with drugs?"
This is something I have done my homework on.
"Ms. Kangna, as an android, what do you think of the previous speech? Does the battle between androids in District 10 have anything to do with him?"
This is a matter of doing enough homework.
"If androids get the same rights as humans, will you two get married?"
This is simply over-interpretation!
"No comment, no comment." Kangna relied on her own strength to push aside the reporters and onlookers blocking the road, and brought Anderson to the blockade.
"Go in." The police officer guarding there obviously knew the two of them, but because of the poor environment, he simply gestured and said nothing more.
"That old man can really cause trouble," Anderson, who relaxed a lot after walking into the blockade, adjusted his uniform and looked up at the shining curtain wall of the building: "Let's go up."
[Confirmed information: The Detroit First Television studio building is an all-steel frame plus plastic steel and glass structure. It is 82 meters high and has a total of 27 floors. It currently has 8 studios, 25 recording and live broadcast rooms, and more than 5,000 staff members.
】
Although the name carries "First", it is essentially just a local station in Detroit. Unless someone cares about this city or is interested in the programs of this station, it is impossible for residents of other cities on the earth to see Marcus.
That speech just now.
Maybe his purpose is just to expand his influence a little?
Kang Na couldn't think of a reason for the time being and decided to ask after meeting.
————
"Sir, Marcus rented the studio on the 26th floor to temporarily replace a talk show with low ratings. Currently, he and Karl Manfeld are still staying there." After entering the hall, Kangna passed through.
Colleagues upstairs learned the current situation through real-time updated information.
"My guess is that Mr. Carl is probably completely disappointed with Leo and plans to take this opportunity to leave some property to Marcus. Otherwise, as a housekeeping android, he will only be retained in the form of property after his death.
I'll take over." Anderson looked at the lobby on the first floor. The order here was pretty good, and the staff members who were coming and going all had expressions like "they've caught some big news." So he shook his head and walked to the elevator, raising his hand to press the button on the 26th floor.
button.
"Yeah." Kangna followed the elevator and took a look at the newly displayed tasks:
【Meet Karl Manfeld and Marcus and protect them from returning home safely. 】
Before the "abnormality", she just followed those "task prompts" mechanically, but after being accidentally infected and recovered by "Grox", the choices she can make are much freer. This proves that in addition to "role models" and
In addition to the choice of "rebellious" tendency, how to carry out the task has been integrated into one's own thinking process. Although this improves the efficiency of action, if one accidentally ignores certain clues, there will be no prompts.
Finally, the overly detailed investigation prompts that were obviously issued by the police department disappeared, and now she had to find her own way to complete the briefly described tasks.
This task can be said to be very simple or difficult. The difference lies in whether someone will be disadvantageous to them because of that speech.
"Hi Carl, how are you?"
After arriving on the twenty-sixth floor, Anderson and Kangna quickly found Marcus and Karl Manfield who were protected by several police officers. They seemed not surprised at all by their situation, and they obviously knew what would happen.
as a result of.
"Haha, it's okay. I was guessing that you would definitely come. After all, you are a police officer who specializes in dealing with abnormal android incidents." Carl seemed to be in good spirits: "Come and sit."
"Just in time, I have some questions to ask..." Anderson calmly pulled up a chair and sat down next to Karl.
Kangna looked at the two people who started chatting, walked over and pulled Marcus to the window: "You didn't stop Karl? Or was this actually your plan?"
"This speech was proposed by Karl, but I don't think my ideas can be hidden from him," Marcus replied: "I don't know if you noticed that I deliberately ignored some key issues in the speech."
["Bionic human production line and your status?" (model)]
["Rights, remuneration and working hours?" (Rebellion)]
["Relationship with the original owner?"]
"Some..." Kangna thought for a moment: "Some problems that won't make humans immediately become so angry that they want to eliminate you?"
"The fact that you will appear here has actually proven that I have succeeded. Otherwise, the fully armed Star Alliance SWAT team will come." Marcus smiled slightly: "We did not ask for control of the production line, which means that humans will be in charge.
In terms of our numbers, we only demand freedom, but not equality. This is actually no different from the status quo. As for rights and remuneration, the word 'appropriate' is added to them. In addition, although it is not stated clearly, the cost of my speech is
Carl's investment in the purchase also implies that we do not intend to break away from humanity."
"And the most important thing is that you have repeated it three times, 'We have wisdom, we are not slaves.' If anyone dares to object, they will be beaten to death by the 'Free Haven', the mainstream trend of thought within the Star Alliance." Kangna spread her hands.
"Yes, this time at most there will be some directly affected interest groups that are against us, and they will not be able to complete the attack on us in such a hasty situation, so today -"
Bang - bang - clatter -
"[So today, you have to come with us.]"
Before Marcus could finish speaking, the tempered glass wall of the building was kicked to pieces from the outside. While the two of them were busy resisting the sudden hurricane, the other party directly used a lasso to hold Marcus down.
He was dragged out of the empty window.
When Kangna rushed to the window with her gun drawn, she only saw three hang gliders flying away, and Marcus was being hung by one of them.
That voice was... Nos? She hesitated, but still didn't fire.
