"What do you mean, Lieutenant?"
The Android (Sent by Cyberlife) stared at the older man, who was now seething with a mix of rage and unhappiness. The Lieutenant snapped his head towards Connor, growling quietly as he shook his head, sliding into the drivers seat of his car. The Android could tell whatever was bothering Hank, it couldn't be good. His LED went from Blue to Yellow.
As soon as Connor slid into the passenger seat, Hank stepped on the gas, barely giving Connor any time to react and close the door, that small light on the side of his head going Red for a millisecond. It went back to Yellow as soon as he shut the door, whipping his head around to look at Hank, now even more confused as to why the Lieutenant was this obviously angry. "We have to go to the asshole's house..." Was all Hank Anderson (Mr. Krabs) could get out between grumbles to himself. All the Android was programmed to do was watch the other, turning his head towards the window, LED blue again.

As they pulled up to the now dark home of Elijah Kamski, Connor couldn't help but to notice one of his Chloe's looking out of the front window. From the way she was dressed, Connor could immediately tell that she was Kamski's first Chloe, the Android who passed the Turing Test and set Kamski's entire business into motion. When you talked to her, she doesn't seem robotic almost at all, save for a few instances of malfunctions due to her system being older. After Kamski left Cyberlife, the man couldn't bare to leave his Android, pride and joy of his business, alone with people and workers she didn't know. He took her with him, and a few other Chloe's, to his home, where he had been living with them ever since.
At least, this is what Connor was programmed to believe.
Hank stared at the home for a few moments, at the Chloe that was staring at both of them from the window. "Strange..." He mumbled to himself, but just loud enough for Connor to hear him, head turning towards the other, LED now Yellow. "She never stares for this long without either coming outside to greet us or alerting the asshole that we're here..."
"You call Mr. Kamski an... 'Asshole' a lot. Is there a specific reason for that, Lieutenant?" Connor was now trying to gather a bit more information from the other man with whom he had been assigned to. When there was a pause longer than three seconds, the Android man shifted his attention and gaze over to the Chloe that was still watching their car, now noticing a look of worry on her face. "She seems... Worried?" Connor tilted his head, pulling his coin out of his pocket to mess with it in his hand while his processors were going a mile a minute, trying to figure this peculiar Android woman out.
Without warning, Hank opened his door rather quickly, snapping Connor out of his train of robotic thought. The Android followed suit, but gentler, as to not potentially breaking the door off the hinges, thus getting yelled at for maybe an hour by Hank. He knew better than to break the Lieutenant's things. The one time he did, he didn't hear the end of it for two weeks.
As they approached the house, Chloe retreated into the depths of the dimly lit household, leaving the door jarred open a few inches for the two detectives to enter. As they did, Connor noticed that the temperature was dropped below what he deemed to be a "Human Comfort Level", or just what was too cold for Hank. He pushed the door open more, immediately going to look for a thermostat, knowing all too well that Kamski still had one built in instead of having his Chloe models work harder than they needed too. He seemed to be very soft on them. As he searched for the thermostat, he couldn't help but notice Hank following right behind him, which was quite odd for him to do. "Are you okay, Lieutenant?" Connor asked, looking back to the other, head tilted like a puppy's.
This seemed to snap Hank out of whatever he was thinking about, starting to walk around the house, leaving Connor to look by himself. Now he was back to his old ways. He must have been in pretty deep thought to go and follow him like that. Not long after Hank left him, Connor found a light switch, pushing his fingers up on the panel to brighten the room, soon after finding the thermostat, happily turning the temperature up so no one would freeze. He then started looking around the house, a new objective popping up in his field of vision for a split second:
"Find Elijah Kamski"
