Chapter 42: Court Dispute

In today's modern world where news unfolds, it can be said that even a minor piece of news can spread across the globe in no time, let alone dark technology like Baymax.

It can be said that everyone, even in some developed countries and some remote villages, has a Baymax robot stationed there.

This is because the dark technology that can monitor the body in real-time is quite unusual; you only need to take a photo to know the physical condition.

Everyone is eager to have such a machine, driven by public opinion, some countries, even if unwilling, have to purchase Baymax following the general trend.

And this... is the influence of Baymax.

And now... the founder who created Baymax has been charged, and all eyes of the world are upon this.

Not long after, a black Lincoln car slowly parked in front of and behind the clear corridor.

Under the breathless gaze of everyone, the protagonist of this conference, Killian, finally stepped out of the car, protected by security guards.

Upon seeing the person arrive, everyone at the venue plunged into a carnival.

Some women, blocked by a security wall that had formed along the entire railing, desperately tried to place the business card in their hands on Killian's arms, wanting to use this to reach the skies in one step, or even spend a night of pleasure.

And some men also want Killian's investment and discovery, and are equally excited to have Killian stop for them.

Countless reporters kept pressing the shutter with their light disintegrators.

"Mr. Killian, what do you think of today's court summons?"

"Mr. Killian, there are rumors that your company's robots pose safety risks, do you have anything to clarify?"

"Mr. Killian, call me! Call me…"

Ignoring these nearly insane reporters, Killian successfully made it inside the court escorted by bodyguards.

There were many people waiting for him inside, even the jury sat early.

There was a seat reserved for him at the innermost position, which was in the front, and Killian sat down without any courtesy.

"Okay, now that the summoner, Mr. Killian, has arrived."

"This judge declares that this court is officially open!"

After Killian sat down, the councilman, dressed in a judge's suit on the highest podium, also struck the wooden gavel in front of him and then spoke with a serious expression.

However, Killian found a hint of kindness in the eyes that looked at him.

Moreover, there were a total of five members on the stage.

Except for one who expressed his impartiality in his gaze, all, without exception, showed some degree of goodwill when Killian looked at them.

However, the necessary procedures still need to be followed.

Firstly, the plaintiff, the Federal Food and Drug Administration Committee, was clear about medical robots.

It began to claim that it was a medical robot without passing the certification and authorization of relevant medical technology, giving a public warning of fundamental misinformation.

It also asked Killian to disclose the core technology of Baymax, which is the body scanner, because it is related to major national technologies and has a significant impact on the United States, so he was asked to publish these technologies.

At that moment, Killian took out his phone and began scrolling through it out of boredom.

[Note: I don't know about you, but I'll lock him up right there if he does that while I'm a judge.]

Though current mobile phones are far from as smart as those in the future, they already have plenty of features that are enough to entertain him.

"Mr. Killian! Mr. Killian!!!"

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Killian, who was chasing the novel "Crossing the Multiverse," was brought back to reality by the hammering voice of the judge, and then he looked at him with a blank expression on his face, staring at each other.

"Yes, sorry, sir, what the plaintiff just said was too intoxicating for me and made me fall into that."

After hearing what the judge said, Killian hung up his phone as if nothing had happened and then said with a smile.

"Alright, let me ask you the question again, the plaintiff accused you of illegally selling medical equipment products without obtaining the relevant medical certification, how do you explain this?"

Regarding Killian's grave nonsense, the judge simply smiled and asked.

"Illegal sale of medical equipment products? This is a slander; our company has always complied with the law and paid taxes on time, how could we do such illegal things?"

Hearing the judge's question, Killian said "indignantly."

It was as if he had been greatly wronged.

"Baymax is a medical product!"

At that moment, at the plaintiff's table, an "old acquaintance" of Killian, Alex, stood up on behalf of the Federal Food and Drug Administration Committee and said affirmatively.

"Medical products? Sorry, neither I nor my company had defined it that way."

"Then, how do you define it?"

"Definition? Robot? Consultant? Or assistant, personal aide? You can define it as you wish."

"If Mr. Alex likes, our company can also offer doll service; it's just a matter of asking."

"But as for the issue of size, maybe we should find a professional microchip company to handle it, after all, we always prioritize the customers."

Seeing the sharp question from Alex in front of him, Killian responded directly.

"Pff! Hahaha!!"

As soon as Killian finished speaking, the members of the jury present couldn't help but laugh.

Even the various members of parliament in the court turned red and wanted to laugh, but were concerned about their status and did not dare to laugh.

"It's a medical device, it's a medical product."

"It can scan the health status and vital signs of the human body, which means it's a medical product."

At that moment, Alex, as someone involved, naturally did not find it so funny, and even felt very embarrassed, then spoke with a somber face.

"Not at all, if that's the case, what about people who can detect diseases after a glance? Do you want to treat them as medical products too?"

"Perhaps you have to discuss the federal bill; you're objectifying people and workers, if the court allows you to treat these living people as products, then pretend I said nothing."

"And from beginning to end our company defines it as an advisory robot, which only takes care of giving advice.

From the beginning to the end, our promotion is just a personal health measure, in short, it's just a fancy butler."

Killian looked at Alex not very far away and said seriously.
