BLADE RUNNER: THRESHOLD — Part Six: REI

The file called it social infiltration. Three nights at a noodle counter under a neon sign that said TEA HOUSE, learning how someone holds a room without performing it.

Her name meant void. Zero. Nothing there.

I watched her and thought that's wrong.

She came back the next night. And the night after. She didn't resist when it was time to bring her in — she came willingly. Which should have told me something, and didn't, until the room, the questions, the machine that already knew the answer.

Some distances aren't measured. They're crossed.

Part Six. Out now.
