"BREAKING NEWS"
"Charles Martin, the son of the conglomerate Monsieur Frédérique Martin has escaped the hands of the police. He was found in the streets of Lyon. More information will be told after the sports news."

'Are you sure no one had seen this?' Max asked as he fixed the wires of Nina's heart.

'I hope so,' Nina answered.

'That dumb head?' He asked again as he pulled out the bullet.

Nina snorted.

'People would think that he made up that story anyways.' He said.
'Anyways thank the heaven that I was here or else everyone would've known our secret.' He continued.

Just then the bell rang. Max put the metal back to its place and cleaned the tools. Nina went on to check the door and there stood Detective Bernard. Nina signaled a safe sign to Max.

'Bonsoir, Monsieur Duvont!' Nina greeted as she opened the door.

Detective Duvont laughed as she closed the door.

'Feels like a real human' He said.

'But I see that you are alright now. I see the bullet doesn't affect you a bit. Where did he shoot?' He continued.

'Right on the part where humans have their heart.' She replied to which Detective Duvont laughed at.
'Bonsoir, M. Duvont,' Max greeted as he came from the kitchen with an apple juice.

Detective Duvont replied his greet. All of them sat on the sofa.

'It is just that I have been so curious, since I am human, to know how did you find about his secrets? We knew that he had committed a crime but we didn't want to take a huge risk on pointing a well known figure, you know?' M. Duvont said.

'You see, Monsieur, I have been built in such a way that when my palms rest on a human heart I can detect if someone has committed any misdeed and I can detect the feeling as well. The fact that lips are the most sensitive part of a human body had been input in my brain. So when I touch the lips I can visualize the deeds and see any source of proofs.' Nina said as Detective Bernard's eyebrows rose in surprise.

'Nina told me that she had visualized hand prints on the entrance of the building and scratches on his forearm. That is the reason why you were able to find the clues.' Max said as he looked at Nina with pride
' It would've been impossible for the police to randomly check scratches on a respected person. We are really thankful for your volunteering.' Detective Duvont said.

'We would be more than thankful if we would be able to join her in our team since she helps people find justice,' M. Duvont asked in a hesitant tone.

Max pauses and thought.

'I promise that no one would know her secret,' He continued.

'It is not that we won't believe in you Monsieur Duvont. It is that although Nina is not a human but I sure am. I have a heart that longs for home. Without me Nina would not be able to operate properly.' Max politely rejected the offer.

Detective Duvont smiled as he had expected that anyways, the ones that have the power would never accept any permanent offer anyways especially since the pay would be less than her strengths.
