Connor x Reader - Altering algorithms (DBH)

Chapter 12: A lost lover

Once more, the robotic voice of the computer appeared. "Purchase confirmed. Eden Club wishes you a pleasant experience." The glass moved aside as the Traci stepped outside.

The woman seductively smiled at me, making me want to gag. I hated having to support this club in any way.

"Delighted to meet you. Follow me, I'll take you to your room." She extended her hand and waited for me to accept it, yet I simply stared at Connor.

"So, do you plan on telling me what you had in mind?" I asked, seriously curious.

My partner approached the female android and grabbed her arm, his hand going white. When he closed his eyes, I knew exactly what he did. Meanwhile Hank muttered "Holy shit, Connor... What the hell are you doin'?"

After a few moments, Connor turned around, facing Hank and me. "It saw something."

The grey-haired man stepped forward, asking, "What are you talkin' about? Saw, what?"

I was about to give him an answer, intending to clarify what the detective android had done, yet Connor himself stopped me. "The deviant leave the room... A blue-haired Traci. Club policy is to wipe the androids' memory every two hours. We only have a few minutes if we wanna find another witness!"

I eagerly nodded, about to leave when the Traci I had rented gently grabbed my arm. "Uhhh..."

Looking around, I still saw Hank standing a few feet away, confusion evident on his face. Like that he would need some time to process what had happened anyway.

"He will take care of you." I pointed towards Hank. The woman let me go and marched over to the grey-haired man, who stared at me.

"What the fuck (Y/N)? I don't even know what to do with that thing!"

I apologetically smiled and jogged over to Connor, who was waiting for me. We both left Hank behind, seeing as I did not know what else to do to get rid of that Traci.

"Tell it you changed your mind!" Connor yelled back at Hank, as we moved over to the next android. In the background, I heard Hank stuttering.

"Uhh... Sorry, honey, changed my mind! Nothing personal, you're... a lovely girl... I just, uh... You know... I'm with him and her and... I mean, not with them like that... I'm not that... That's not what I... You, um... Wow... I just..."

"Let's try this one." Connor grabbed the arm of the female android we had first seen after entering Eden Club.

I patiently waited, perhaps staring a little too intensely at my partner. When he opened his eyes again, he already started walking, me following him.

"It saw the Traci walking further into the back."

I shortly glanced at Connor, responding, "All right, which one do you want to try next?"

Suddenly, Connor grabbed my wrist, hence I gasped. He dragged me over to a dark skinned male android in the back of the main room.

"Please rent this one (Y/N)."

I was still baffled by his sudden action and merely nodded, retrieving my arm while putting my right hand over the fingerprint scanner. The door opened and Connor hastily grabbed the man's arm.

"It walked into the red room!" He exclaimed and started walking. At the same time Hank caught up with us.

"Damn it (Y/N), you'll regret leavin' me back there." The grey haired man hissed, as I insecurely smiled.

"Sorry Hank but that was the fastest thing I could think of."

The lieutenant huffed, still seeming upset. Connor stopped next to a brown haired male android, which was close to where we came from. He peered at me, awaiting my cooperation. I hurried over, confirming the purchase. Once more, my partner grabbed the machine's arm and we waited for a second.
