Detroit: Witness I

4. The interrogation

Trucy frowned as it stepped out of the taxi in front of the DPD's building, into the sheer cold. It was not the temperature that troubled it - as it was an advanced prototype, it would need exactly 49 hours for this weather to freeze its thirium and destroy its biocomponents. No, the factor that troubled the GK700 was the sudden call from Amanda, who informed it that the deviant's interrogation was to be held this very night, since Cyberlife needed to put a stop to this deviancy as soon as it could. And as Trucy was not offically working on that case it only got notified once the interrogation actually began. As of now, the female model was 28 seconds late, so it hurried into the building.

The inside was quiet, only two receptionist androids were present. They looked at the GK700, but did not say a world, they were most likely informed of the prototypes' arrival. So Trucy stepped inside the mostly silent interior, and a quick scan immediately told it where the interrogation room was. So the female model did not waste any time, and hurried to its destination. When it stepped in Lieutenant Anderson was already questioning the HK400, while another human and one it recognised as Officer Miller watched from the observation room. Connor was present as well, a sideway glance was the only indicator that it acknowledged Trucy's presence.

"Why'd you kill him?" No answer.

"What happened before you took that knife?" Again, nothing. Just empty silence. This caused Detective Gavin to narrow his eyes and the Lieutenant to turn towards the four of them, visibly out of patience.

"How long were ya in the attic?" But the defective machine refused to elaborate, it just kept staring at its hands.

"Why didn't you even try to run away?" Lieutenant Anderson tried again, but to no avail. As if the deviant could not even hear him. It seems he got exactly that idea, so he snapped his fingers two times in front of the deviant's staring eyes, but again - nothing. The Lieutenant looked back to the group in disbelief, before slamming both of his hands on the table.

"Say something, goddamn it!" He looked expectantly at the defective android, but the only reaction his outburst managed to trigger was the slight tremble of its lips and a little movement with its eyes. He snorted, clearly fed up with the uncooperative suspect and stood up. He did not even get a confession, noted Trucy with a frown.

"Fuck it, I'm outta here..." Lieutenant Anderson walked over to the lock of the door, and put his palm on the interface. The door opened with a muffled 'click', and soon he opened the door to the observation room.

The Lieutenant was visibly angered by the deviant's behaviour, the moment he entered the room he started complaining about the HK400. Unlike Trucy, Connor and Detektive Reed payed him attention, while the GK700 observed the deviant. Its behaviour indicated that it was on edge, its eyes always moved ever so slightly in their direction.

"Okay smartass. What should we do then?" Trucy looked up to Detective Reed, who was talking to Connor. The RK800 glanced at the Lieutenant, then looked back to the man.

"I could try questioning it." The mere mentioning of this possibility caused Detective Reed to snort with a cynical laugh as he went back to leaning againts the dark wall with his arms crossed before his chest.

"What do we have to lose? Go ahead, suspect's all yours." Lieutenant Anderson gestured towards the sitting deviant, in a manner that suggested he really was out of ideas. Connor looked away from him, and its LED turned yellow for a second - it probably got an update in its objectives, because the RK800 immediately turned towards the door and reappeared in the other room. Trucy watched as the other android stopped in front of the one-way mirror and stared at the four of them.

"What the fuck is it doin' now?" The Lieutenant appeared confused, his eyes were narrowed as he observed the still android on the other side of the mirror. Trucy titlet its head to the side, not completely comprehending the other's behaviour. Was it trying to signal for the GK700 to join it in the investigation? The list of its objectives popped up immediately.

OBJECTIVES:
- attend interrogation

There was nothing keeping Trucy away from helping Connor extract a confession, altough nothing ordered it to do that either. So the female model began calculating, and the chances of the RK800 requesting its presence was only 2%. Just as it tought, an unlikely occurence - since it would have said so beforehand or would have consulted Amanda to send Trucy - but the slight possibility was there nonetheless.
