Chapter 208: Watch Out for Getting Stuck

"Are you trying to send me on a mission right now? I'm busy." Renault glanced at Angelia, who remained stationary.

Still here? Are you waiting for me to invite you to stay overnight?

"Hmm..." Angelia's eye twitched at Renault's words.

Couldn't this guy be a bit more polite? After all, she should at least be considered a client, right? How did this guy do business before?

Of course, Renault wasn't just stalling Angelia.

He genuinely didn't have time right now. Several more T-Doll's cores needed replacement, and their bodies required reconstruction.

"And?" Renault asked, noticing the communicator Angelia took out, the Statesec's logo glaringly obvious to him.

When Angelia heard Renault's question, she thought of what he had just said...

The failed Operation Butterfly, M16's deleted mission records and memories, all indicated the presence of moles within the Bureau of State Security...

In this situation, continuing to use communication devices provided by Statesec, who could guarantee that no one was monitoring her every move?

"So how do I contact you? You don't expect me to come find you every time, do you?"

If the Statesec's communicator couldn't be used, then there probably weren't any other communication devices available. After all, even the devices used by G&K were under the control of the Statesec's signal relay stations.

Renault opened the door to a cabinet next to him, pulled open a drawer, and casually tossed a cellphone from it to Angelia.

"Huh!? A cellphone!? Are you sure you want me to use this thing to contact you?" Looking at the ordinary cellphone in her hand, which was almost identical to a normal one except for the extra protective layer around the screen, Angelia couldn't help but laugh.

"It has encrypted communication protocols, all you have to do is not hand this thing over to Statesec for research, and there won't be any problems with using it to make calls."

Of course, even if you were to research it, you might not figure it out.

"What about the signal? It's not like you can make calls everywhere these days." Angelia handed the cellphone to the person beside her, Dier.

But Dier was still staring at the two Doll printing devices, seemingly wanting to study them.

Unfortunately, without the devices, he couldn't see anything.

Slap!

Angelia slapped Dier on the head, bringing him back to his senses, somewhat sheepishly taking the phone Renault had handed him.

"Where was this phone made? How does the system inside it..."

"Alright, you can research it later. I won't keep you guys here. Do you want to stay for a midnight snack?"

"That sounds great! How about letting me visit your place? It wouldn't hurt for future partners to get to know each other, right?"

Huh? Did you really believe him? Can't you hear him trying to chase us away?

"Tsk! Suit yourself. Just remember not to wander into the Doll dormitories. If you get punched through a wall and can't get out, don't blame me for not warning you." Looking at Angelia with narrowed eyes, and then turning to look at Dier, who was still immersed in studying the phone's system, Renault said impatiently.

But as soon as those words came out of his mouth, Renault regretted it. Besides UMP45 and UMP9, who had already gone back to their dorms, all the other Dolls had returned to their rooms.

These two Dinergates, who had just arrived the day before, hadn't had time to explore everywhere yet. The only one who could wander around with these few T-Dolls seemed to be himself, who hadn't slept yet.

"Being punched through a wall? Is that a special greeting around here?"

Angelia still didn't quite understand what he meant by that.

Although she admitted that T-Dolls were far superior to humans in terms of strength and agility, directly punching someone through a wall seemed a bit exaggerated, right? If any Doll could do that, the military units should have been disbanded long ago.

In the end, one of the reasons why the military was reluctant to purchase tactical T-Dolls produced by IOP, and instead cooperated with Sangvis Ferri to develop their own droids, was precisely because the models produced by IOP were too diverse, and the individual personality traits made management a problem.

In addition, the so-called secure communication protocols used by IOP's T-Dolls were virtually non-existent. Unless IOP abandoned their usual practices and made all their tactical T-Dolls have consistent personalities, the military would never purchase IOP products.

"It's probably not just a figure of speech. You saw how 40 and Maria adapted to their new bodies earlier. Why do you think Renault is so nervous about ordinary T-Dolls adapting to their new bodies?" UMP45 walked beside Angelia and reminded her.

Although she didn't know how good the new bodies of Renault's T-Dolls were, just by looking at UMP9's original body, she could tell that it was likely damaged when P90 grabbed her ankle and dragged her down the stairs.

Although the sharp edges of the stairs were the main cause of UMP9's injuries, it was probably also because P90's strength was a bit too much.

And when they arrived at this factory area, just as they were being carried down from the helicopter, she had seen with her own eyes that those T-Dolls, carrying boxes of ingredients, were like playing with the boxes like it had no weight.

So Renault's reminder just now was definitely not a joke. If Angelia, especially Dier, just wandered around casually, they might really get punched through a wall and couldn't get out. All of Renault's T-Dolls were probably like her and 9, lacking even the most basic respect for humans.

Unlike the T-Dolls produced by IOP, Renault's T-Dolls, and what he did with them, were definitely more than just changing their bodies.
