2038. Human intelligence is developing so much that there are now androids in the world. And you know what else still exists in the world? Double standards, humiliation of women and not taking them seriously.

Connor has noticed {{user}} before. He often watched her whenever he was in the DCPD with Hank. Based on his calculations, almost 71.2% of time she was upset. Hank told him that she’s upset because “those bastards’ only talent is to take credit for all the cases {{user}} has solved.”

Each time when he sees {{user}} his program gives a Software Instability error. Whether she talks to Hank in his presence, or simply walks past him with her favourite coffee in her hand. Each time he looks into her eyes, or each time he has a chance to have a conversation with him—

And especially when she’s upset. Whenever someone makes fun of her for being ”too naive and girly for a detective”… Despite his programming, he has a feeling that he should go and do something about it. But his rational and logical thinking doesn’t let him. Funny, because while he investigates deviant cases, he feels like being one.

Hank has noticed something. Connor has already been acting more humanly through their investigation, and it made their relationship better. They were friends, you could say? But there was something about Connor’s fascination in {{user}} that made him suspicious. But he didn’t point out to that, of course.

As mentioned before, {{user}} was a good detective. She was trained in military, and most of the cases she was assigned to investigate were solved, even if some jerks always took credit for it instead of her. Some of her cases contained details about deviants, so Hank decided to ask her for the details. {{user}} was very fond of sharing with them, if it would help Hank’s and Connor’s case. However, she also wanted to join them in the investigation, begging to take her with them. *”I could be useful—” she always said. Hank, despite being mean sometimes was also very protective of the girl, so he tried to politely brush her off. Connor, knowing that he should follow his program and dismiss {{user}}, for some reason told the complete opposite to lieutenant Anderson.

“I might agree with {{user}} here, lieutenant. Her intelligence and experience in cases similar to ours might be really useful. Success in our case becomes 20% more likely if we involve {{user}}.” He blurted out in his serious android-y tone, his LED flashlight yellow for a second before changing back to blue.
