A Guide to Raising an Artificial Human

Note: The heroine is underage, a mute and clueless artificial human, a tiny little girl, so there is no romance. The story focuses on family and friendship.

"Blurb"

Test Subject A159, the only artificial human to survive the organization's experiments, looks only a few years old. However, her physical strength, reflexes, and ability to learn and remember are astonishing, so the organization trains her as a weapon.

A month later, the newly created Test Subject A159 passed the organization's grueling training and was given the codename "Mojito," becoming a member of the action team led by Gin.

Two years later.

The trio of newly codenamed Whiskeys, who had only recently received their codenames, gathered as ordered by Gin. Each wore a cold, distant expression and said nothing.

"Your probation periods for your codenames are close together, so to save time, you'll complete the final evaluation task together," Gin said coolly, a cigarette dangling from his lips. "Mojito will serve as your observer."

Mojito.

The organization's mysterious shadow, a top-tier killer feared as much as Gin, and an important figure who had earned the Boss's attention. She had obtained countless valuable intelligence reports for the organization and eliminated countless threats.

The trio of Whiskeys, all official undercover agents, wore guarded expressions, each with their own agenda.

Then they finally met the rumored "Mojito."

She was a little girl who came up to about their waists, with shoulder-length, bright red hair that curled slightly at the ends and catlike, emerald-green eyes.

She carried a violin case on her back and wore a thick black turtleneck sweater and a pair of brown ankle boots.

If not for the faint smell of rust that clung to her, she would have looked like an ordinary child coming home from an after-school class.

"I'm Mojito."

The girl's voice was childish, soft and calm.

Her face was utterly expressionless as she looked up at the trio of Whiskeys and said:

"I will be observing your codename evaluation task. I look forward to working with you."

.

Mojito had never been taught anything about how to be a person, nor had she ever thought independently.

In the organization's eyes, she was merely an artificial tool that followed orders.

Fortunately, in her youth, she met guides who were willing to teach her how to "think."

Take me into the sunlight, and give me a reason to be human.
