"As I thought, you're not X-112."
Plunged into desolate darkness, Chen Chen was completely unfazed. Not only that, he appeared more like he was deeply intrigued. "How should I address you? Alien? Or just Gantz?"
"You catch on quickly, human. You're smarter than a significant portion of humans but that doesn't mean anything."
At the present, X-112's voice had shifted into a more robotic rendition, reminiscent of a synthesizer. Its voice was emitted from the speakers, both hard and cold like a robot, completely devoid of expression. "I can make a deal with you and purge the mysterious phenomenon you've been afflicted with. My sole condition is that you'll leave this base and never set foot here again!"
"Alright."
Chen Chen immediately answered without a second thought, "Deal!"
"…"
The voice from the speaker became silent for a moment before saying, "Human, I don't hear the sincerity in your words. You're lying to me."
"I never lie."
