Chapter 8: Meeting with Robles

As Spooner approached, a two-inch green metal on the ground shook, and a ray of light shot out of it, forming a screen of light, on which Dr. Lanny's projection appeared.

"It's a pleasure to see you again, young man!" The projection of Dr. Lenny saw Spooner and smiled.

Of course, Li Qi knew that the sudden appearance of Dr. Lanny was not a ghost, but just a projection.

I looked at Dr. Lanny's projection on it with some curiosity, and then observed the green metal on the ground, this should be a holographic projector, very advanced equipment.

"Hello, Doctor!" A look of sadness flashed across Spooner's face.

"Everything that follows is what you see now!" Dr. Lenny in the projection narrates like a real person.

"Is there anything you want to tell me?" Spooner didn't understand what Dr. Lenny meant.

"I'm sorry I have limited answers, you have to ask the right questions." Dr. Lenny is just a projection, with only a little bit of artificial intelligence, so he can't understand what Spooner is saying.

After a deep sigh, Spooner looked at Dr. Lenny and said, "Why are you looking for me?" ”

"I trust your judgment!" Dr. Lenny replied with something to say.

"Generally speaking, this should not require an agent from the detective team, if it is defined as suicide." Spooner tilted his head to look at Dr. Lenny in the projection.

"But all along, our communication hasn't been completely normal, has it?" Dr. Lenny said with a smile.

"You're right." Hearing Dr. Lenny's words, Spooner pursed his lips helplessly and asked, "Is there anything you have to tell me?" ”

"I'm sorry I have limited answers, you have to ask the right questions." Dr. Lenny's answer was the same as before.

"Why did you kill yourself?" Spooner asked.

"Well, agent, that's the right question...... Program aborted! Dr. Lenny smiled meaningfully at Spooner after he finished asking, and the holographic projector shook in Spooner's puzzled gaze, and then Dr. Lenny's projection disappeared into the holographic projector.

"Spooner, do you know Dr. Lenny?" Li Qi on the side naturally knew the whole story, but he couldn't say it, so he looked at the silent Spooner and asked.

Spooner came back to his senses, nodded, and said, "I've seen it a few times." ”

Seeing that Spooner just nodded briefly, Li Qi smiled, of course he knew that Spooner and Dr. Lenny naturally did not simply meet a few times, but his current left arm was made by Dr. Lenny himself, and this relationship must be not shallow.

However, Spooner didn't want to say it, and Li Qi didn't break the casserole and ask to the end, but continued: "I don't think Dr. Lenny seems to be as simple as an ordinary suicide? ”

"Oh? Li Qi, what do you think? Spooner asked with interest when he heard Li Qi's words.

Seeing Spner's appearance, Li Qi seriously stated his opinion and said: "If Dr. Lenny is an ordinary suicide, why do you think he left a holographic projector for you, it can't be that he wants to say goodbye to you after death, right?" Even if he wants to say goodbye to you, I think it would be more convenient to make a phone call, and looking at the thing he left behind, there is obviously something unspeakable. ”

"Unspeakable? Li Qi, you can be clear. Spooner asked, frowning.

"Dr. Lenny has something he wants to tell you, but it's inconvenient to disclose it so directly, and maybe there will be some irreversible consequences." Li Qi pinched his chin and guessed.

"What does he have to tell me? And what are the irreversible consequences? Spooner looked up at Li Qi, and felt more and more confused, it was originally to see the flowers in the water, the moon in the mirror, and the clouds in the fog, but now the clouds and fog seem to be heavier.

"You should ask the dead Dr. Lenny, if he can answer that." Li Qi shrugged his shoulders and pointed towards the USR building: "Maybe we can find something here!" ”

At 532 meters tall, the USR is only 9.3 meters smaller than the Freedom Tower at the World Trade Center in New York.

As the richest man in the world, Lawrence Robles, president of USR, has his office at the very top of the company.

Li Qi and Spooner took the elevator to the top floor of the USR, and walked to Robles' office under the guidance of Robles' personal secretary.

"Hey, two agents!" Robles had obviously just finished the meeting when he saw Li Qi and Spooner coming in, and asked the two of them a little tiredly.

"Hello, Mr. Robles, it's a pleasure to meet you! My name is Li Qi and he is my partner, Spooner. After Li Qi finished speaking, he politely shook hands with Robles.

"Hey! Lawrence Robles, the richest man in the world, I've seen you on TV! Spooner seemed to see a star, and his eyes couldn't hide the joy. But he pretended to be calm and stretched out his hand to shake Robles' hand.

"Nice to meet you, TV tends to be more exaggerated, isn't it, you two, do you want some coffee?" Robles was obviously not very interested in Spooner's familiarity, shook his hand and stretched it out, looking at the two with a gentle and polite smile on his face.

"Of course, why not? It's free, right? To Robles's attitude, Spooner replied seemingly imperceptibly.

Li Qi shrugged his shoulders undeniably, and then followed the two to the table on the side.

While pouring coffee for the two of them, Robles said with some regret: "Everyone didn't expect this, you know, I should have been able to foresee him, I have known him for twenty years, Alfred invented the utility robot, and he defined the three laws." ”

Serving coffee to the two of them, Robles continued: "But, I suppose even the smartest people have the most stubborn demons. If there's anything I can do to help, I'll do my best to cooperate......"

"I think there's a favor right now, please help!" Hearing Robles' question, Li Qi took the coffee with a bitter face and said, "I think this coffee is too bitter for me." ”

"What?" Robles was stunned for a moment, then smiled apologetically, "It's my negligence, I usually drink bitter coffee to refresh myself." ”

"Sugar is here, Li Qi!" Spooner picked up a silver spoon and added some sugar to his coffee, handing it to Li Qi.

"Good coffee, Mr. Robles!" Spooner took a sip of his coffee and nodded to Robles.

"Thanks, you can have two more drinks if you like!" Robles said with a smile.
