Adding insult to injury
Mu Qingyan stayed in Russia for almost a month, and also traveled to several nearby countries. As she expected, various communities were experiencing symptoms of varying degrees. She tried various methods but could not find out the source, and could only control the situation slightly.
But no matter what, the truth will come out sooner or later, which undoubtedly makes the questions faced by Infinity even worse.
Dustin has received notice that the robots stationed by Infinity in various communities need to be withdrawn one after another within 20 days, and management rights must be transferred. This decision was actually approved by a large majority in the United Nations vote.
York, who usually takes these things lightly, was even more angry than Dustin this time. According to Sharon, their CTO threw the cup out during the tea break, but because the cup did not break, he became even angrier and threatened to hack into the terminals of the group of questioners.
Dustin's attitude seemed to be one of resignation. Apart from a few days of arguing and making sarcastic remarks, he was surprisingly calm in the end. He slept soundly during the questioning session and no one could stop him. It seemed that he didn't care much that not only hundreds of billions of dollars were wasted, but he was also slammed with dirty water.
But it was also thanks to his calmness that so many Infinity employees did not suffer mental breakdowns.
Mu Qingyan was still unclear about what he was up to. After all, there was another matter that had to concern her.
I haven't had any contact with Kins since I left Australia.
A message did come in the middle of the conversation, just a simple message asking her to take care of herself. Because she was busy and didn't know how to start a conversation, Mu Qingyan didn't reply.
But when she came to her senses and realized that the "cold treatment" period had lasted too long and all the anti-tracking tools installed on Kins were ineffective, it was obvious that the situation was very bad.
Also, she didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that some of her good friends seemed to be hiding something from her.
"Jason, is Dr. Guan okay at the branch?"
"Everything is going smoothly. Dr. Guan also attended the inquiry three days ago and summarized the details of the physical examinations he participated in within the community, securing some benefits for Infinity. Ms. Sharon has already expressed her gratitude to him."
"Yes, I've seen the video recordings. Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Guan. Please let him rest well for the next few days."
"But Ms. Yan, Dr. Guan said he has completed his mission and has patients waiting, so he plans to leave Australia."
"From what I know, he shouldn't have any surgery scheduled for this time. Don't worry, I'll find a way. He'll change his mind by tonight at the latest. You must arrange everything for me afterwards. No matter what he wants, I can satisfy him. Just keep an eye on him."
"yes."
"Anything else?"
"Yes." Jason uploaded a bunch of information and continued, "Although the inquiry gave 20 days, as you can see, the withdrawal of robots and Infinity employees is not that simple. It requires extremely rigorous inspections. If any aberration is found, they will be directly detained..."
Mu Qingyan watched everything that happened in the video. Most of Infinity's employees provided educational and medical assistance in the community. At that time, she laughed and said that the people HR found could not only write code, but were also good at giving injections in class.
After all, they entered Infinity with longing and enthusiasm and entered the community with love and sympathy. They were naturally indignant about being detained indiscriminately. A few of them with hot tempers almost got into a fight with the people at the questioning meeting.
In comparison, the robots' reactions were much calmer. They didn't seem to understand what unforgivable things they had done. Their positronic brains were still functioning well, but the confusion and doubt revealed in their optical mirrors made Mu Qingyan unable to bear to watch any longer.
"Come find Kins. I have something to tell him."
"Mr. Kins is tutoring high school students in the community."
"Although this is probably the excuse Dustin gave you, lying must have put a strain on your emotional charge, right?"
“…”
--really…
As a robot that takes over Dustin's human loop and updates data all the time, Jason is very good at disguise. As long as he wants, he can definitely hide everything.
But no matter what, as long as it is a robot, it will always be subject to the three laws. When it realizes that its actions are harming humans, all disguises will no longer work.
Mu Qingyan blamed herself a little for not noticing the problem in time when she heard the other party's "tutoring high school students' homework" rhetoric. It was obvious that Jason had dodged it more or less at that time.
"What happened? What happened to Kins?"
In fact, if Mu Qingyan wanted to know something, even Dustin and York couldn't keep it secret for long, but she never liked to use her brain and skills to deal with her friends.
Jason naturally knew that going on like this was not a solution, so in Mu Qingyan's increasingly serious tone, he could only tell her everything.
The first few days of the inquiry were not as smooth as expected. Those people entered the community with a notice "requesting Infinity to cooperate with the work" and randomly took away several robots providing services in the community on the pretext of taking samples.
Unfortunately, Miss Yan's robot butler was also among them.
Obviously, given Kins's level of autonomy and intelligence, it shouldn't be treated as an ordinary robot. Their CEO and CTO actually thought about this issue, but whether the questioning was really well prepared or Kins accidentally exposed itself, the fact is that this is what happened.
Infintiy also made a lot of efforts to get them to release the robots that were taken away, but after thinking about it, in order to avoid Kins' true level being discovered, they could only temporarily acquiesce to this practice and secretly inquire about the news.
And he tried every possible means to hide it from Miss Yan.
In other words, Mr. Kins' whereabouts were already unknown before Ms. Yan left Australia for Russia.
Jason looked at Mu Qingyan in the video, whose expression remained unchanged but still made people feel oppressed. It seemed that countless emotions were brewing silently, just waiting for the day to really explode.
He knew that this day would not last long.
Inexplicably, he suddenly remembered what Boss said when Mr. Kins was taken away: Maybe it wouldn't be a bad thing to keep that robot away from Yan.
He thought about it for a long time and decided to keep this secret.
…
"Qingyan, when will you come back?"
"It will be soon. Have you finished inspecting all the branches of Shen's?"
"Hmm..." Shen Chuxuan couldn't hide her fatigue from the high-intensity work, but she still noticed something was wrong. "Qingyan, what's wrong with you? You look very bad. Did you bring everything I asked you to bring?"
"I brought it. Don't worry, everything is fine. I'm just a little tired..."
Mu Qingyan has been suffering from insomnia for many days since learning about Kins' news, but there is no way, things still need to be done. In comparison, health is secondary.
What Shen Chuxuan was talking about were some devices that could protect her heart, and there were quite a few of them, large and small. After all, her physical condition could not be controlled by drugs and nanorobots, so she could only rely on other external forces.
"Chu Xin, you told me before that the problem with my heart was discovered with the help of Shen's big data. In other words, ordinary people, ordinary robots, and doctors wouldn't be able to easily see it, right?"
"That's true. Every company must possess core competitiveness to ensure its long-term foothold in the industry. That's why Shen's also has many technologies that cannot be shared..."
"but?"
"Huh? How did you know I was going to say but?" Shen Chuxuan smiled.
Mu Qingyan also laughed at this sudden tacit understanding. Perhaps she and her friends were all like this, always liking to breathe heavily when speaking.
"But," Shen Chuxuan continued, "these data are not top secret after all. As long as we have enough samples, we can always find some patterns, not to mention experienced doctors."
"I see…"
"Qingyan, when are you going back to Australia? I didn't expect the inquiry to become such a big deal. I have a lot to say. I'm so sorry..."
Although there was not enough evidence, Shen Chuxuan could already guess who was behind this incident. Even though she tried her best to mediate, it seemed to have no effect.
"Chu Xin, don't say that. You've already done enough for me and Infinity. Besides, you've already reminded Dustin and me before. I also said that I will handle any problems. Don't worry about it. Be sure to protect yourself first."
"good…"
"By the way, Dr. Guan is now in the Australian branch. If possible, I would like to trouble you to go there. No matter what reason you use, I hope you can help me keep Dr. Guan until I return."
Shen Chuxuan was stunned. Even though she had doubts in her heart, she didn't ask anything. She just replied:
"Don't worry."
