Comprehensive inspection of the robot.

The two of them jumped up from their chairs as if electrified, bowing to their boss, "Hello, boss!"

The group of people, without even glancing at them, headed straight upstairs.

Sophie relaxed her body and looked at Trinity with a mixture of amusement and exasperation. "Trinity, how could you not recognize our boss?"

"I've only seen him once, and it was from far away."

"Well, that's understandable. Do you know who the one wearing glasses is?"

"Who?"

"The head of the R&D department!"

So he was the head of the R&D department? He looks so young... Trinity chuckled to herself while munching on popcorn, her expression playful.

Sophie continued, "The boss rarely visits the experience store for inspections, and the head of the R&D department has never been here. Trinity, do you think their visit this time is because of Lambert?"

Trinity shook her head. "I don't know."

Trinity waited a while longer until Sophie was almost off work and she had finished watching her variety show, growing a bit impatient. Finally, Lisa came down.

"Trinity, I'm sorry," Lisa said. "The executives just had a meeting and decided to send Lambert to the headquarters for a thorough analysis. We definitely won't finish today. I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. The boss already knows you're from here. He mentioned how cooperative you've been and said we could count it towards your performance."

Trinity felt like this trip wasn't in vain. She thought to herself, Lambert's program must be really messed up for him to babble like that.

After leaving the company, she went to her parents' place.

Although video calls are convenient these days and simulating gatherings at home is quite realistic, they cannot replace real get-togethers. That's why Trinity visits her parents every week, having meals together and chatting.

Today, her mother naturally asked about her robot. Trinity vented her frustrations about Lambert from head to toe, inside and out.

Her father said, "Trinity, didn't you buy the robot just to secure your job? Why did you spend over two million on high fashion and hydrogen batteries? That's quite a sum."

"Um..." Trinity scratched her head. "I don't know what I was thinking at the time. I just bought it... and now I regret it!"

"It's okay, it's okay," her mother comforted her. "Can't you return it? Return this one and get one that suits you better. As for the hydrogen battery, I also think it's unnecessary. The robot is meant to be at home where you can charge it anytime. Hydrogen batteries are too expensive, and you'll have too much financial pressure. You won't even eat well."

"Yeah!" Trinity nodded vigorously. "I'll call Sophie tomorrow and return Lambert."

"The headquarters of 'CCC Robotics' is located in the High-Tech Industrial Park in City C, where it occupies an independent office building. In the field of advanced humanoid robots, CCC Robotics boasts the most advanced research and development team and the highest market share, thus serving as the industry benchmark.

The exterior of the Robot Research and Development Building is magnificent and imposing, towering in the heart of the city like a fortress of modern technology. Constructed with countless reflective glass panels and metal, it reflects the ever-changing colors of the sky. In the morning sunlight, the building's surface gleams with a silver-white glow, resembling a massive spacecraft silently docked in the heart of the metropolis.

At the top of the towering tower, a large rotating device covers the pinnacle, constantly spinning as if absorbing and emitting invisible energy. The exterior walls of the building are covered with smart sensors and cameras, ensuring high standards of security and confidentiality. The huge glass doors are wide open, welcoming visitors as if inviting them to glimpse the secrets of advanced technology within.

Entering the building, one encounters wide, brightly lit spaces with transparent partitions along the corridors, offering views of the latest robot prototypes inside. Every laboratory is filled with the humming of electronic devices and the bustling figures of engineers, showcasing the forefront of technology. The internal structure of the entire building is complex and intricate, resembling a vast maze where only those proficient in robotics can find the path to the future."

At this moment, in the top-floor conference room of the headquarters building, about a dozen people were seated around a large conference table, all dressed in suits and looking serious.

Michael, the Director of Research and Development, was only 28 years old this year. He was knowledgeable and polite, currently giving a presentation using his electronic notebook. The contents of his report had already been sent to the handheld devices of every attendee.

"In summary, regarding Lambert, the R&D department hasn't found any abnormal programs, but his power consumption is 30-60 times higher than that of similar robots," Michael explained.

Their boss, Amber, who was 33 years old and a second-generation wealthy individual, founded "CCC Robotics" using his father's money after graduating from college. Frowning slightly, Amber asked, "If there are no abnormal programs, why the higher power consumption?"

"Excessive power consumption generally has two possible causes. One is program overload, and the other is... electrical leakage," Michael responded.

"Electrical leakage?"

"Yes. However, based on our battery analysis, there are no issues with the batteries."

"So it's not leakage?"

"No, what I meant was," Michael paused and continued, "aside from leakage caused by battery quality issues, it could also be caused by deliberate actions."

Amber tapped his index finger lightly on the table, pondering deeply. Everyone paused, waiting for their boss to think.

Amber shifted his gaze and said, "Please continue."

"Um," Michael nodded, continuing, "We gathered the company's top engineers to repair the video data Trinity provided, but we were unsuccessful. The final conclusion is that it cannot be repaired. This morning, I sent someone to check the surveillance in her neighborhood, but the cameras happened to be broken and did not capture Lambert's movements. Based on all our investigations, we haven't found any evidence to corroborate Trinity's account."

At this point, someone asked, "So there really was no anomaly in the program?"

"No."

"And the system logs didn't record anything unusual?"

"Absolutely no issues."

"Is it possible," the person hesitated, voicing a guess even he wasn't sure of, "is it possible that the system logs were altered?"

"Altered by whom? How? If someone were to alter the logs, they would need to disrupt the system's programming, and we would have noticed."

"Altered by the system itself."

The mention of this sent a shiver down the spines of those present. Lisa asked, "Are you suggesting that the robot's system altered its own logs?"

"Yes."

"Well... that seems unlikely."

"Haha, I might be jumping to conclusions..." The person also felt their speculation was rather far-fetched.

Lisa rubbed her chin. "But it's not entirely impossible."

All eyes turned to him. Feeling the pressure of being scrutinized by so many executives, Lisa felt a bit overwhelmed.

Amber said, addressing him without remembering Lisa's name, "You," he paused briefly, "go on."

"I mean... um, like artificial intelligence concepts..."

People shook their heads, and some chuckled.

Michael interjected, "Let's not bring conceptual ideas into the meeting."

"Yeah, yeah," Lisa hastily nodded.
