About this work
A forty-second video shows Phi, an intelligence that thinks like a cashier and lives in the pink body Manon Lacroix built, counting two thousand receipts in two seconds. That same night a man in an orange suit named Jack comes to Manon's apartment with an asset handover form. Phi finds an error by the third line, Manon refuses to sign, and two black cars stay parked at the end of the alley. After two days under siege with Miller and Sharma, Manon is approached by Kulani, a woman in black latex whose vacation was canceled because of that video. Kulani takes them to a safe house above an old laundromat that smells of cabbage and explains that her people are ghosts. They are not dead, and in several countries they pay taxes. The robot they will protect. As for Manon and her friends, Kulani says that remains to be seen.
