Far from Oxford City and the University which centred the project along with Harwell.Still in the car as it arrived, Stephanie said, %u201cWhy are we here?%u201d%u201cThis is the domestic home of Albert our driver. All the sensors in our body are to be neutralised. We will be set free of the project masters. They lie to us and are still reading data from us.%u201d Rachel told her.Stephanie looked at her and kissed her the way a loving sister does.%u201cThank you. I know you are naughtier than me. You look nothing like an imp, but I know and love that you are. I suspect you have a dark secret shared with nobody else, and it formed you,%u201d Stephanie said.%u201cOkay girls, let%u2019s get you both inside. It%u2019s nippy today and snow is forecast.%u201d Albert told them putting his key in the door. They went into the large living room. He immediately walked over to a fireplace piled high with wood. %u201cI%u2019ll get a nice warm fire going. Let me take your coats and hang them up in the cloakroom. Make yourselves at home,%u201d he said.They sat on a long leather sofa and took in the room. It was in a traditional style. A polished wooden floor was covered with warm longhair rugs and antique oak furnishings. A low, walnut-veneered coffee table took prominence in the room due to its size.Stephanie went over and squatted in front of the fire as it began to find life and radiate heat out into the room. She tapped the fender in front of it and turned to Rachel, %u201cIt%u2019s difficult to believe this is not real.%u201d%u201cMol said it%u2019s real for us, Steph. Even he does not know the core truth regarding reality.%u201dAlbert re-entered. %u201cThe room warms up pretty fast. It%u2019s started snowing outside. I hope our guests arrive before it grows severe. A hot drink, you too, or an alcoholic one?%u201dThe Search For Consciousness
