Chapter 159
“We must get to the bottom of this plagiarism, or the coming conte
contestants won’t have peace of mind competing Everyone was dissatisfied.
The judge looked embarrassed, having no idea how to appease the crowd.
AL
At first, the organizers planned to go with the flow, but as things progressed, they could only agree with Cynthia’s request.
On the stage. Cynthia beheld Leonard. “Would you like to go first?”
“After you” Leonard was obviously panicked. He had already recited everything he knew and had nothing left to say. So, he wanted to let the other party have a go at it before he did a rough reiteration
Cynthia gladly complied. Although their work was the same, Cynthia reintroduced her robot. “Our robot can perform simple operations independently while also aiding doctors in complex operations. For example, when killing cancer cells, the examination equipment we provide can accurately locate and remove them. This way, we can minimize the damage done to the patient’s body, at the same time preventing postoperative infections caused by incomplete resection.”
Cynthia made a brief introduction and then passed Leonard the microphone. Leonard grabbed it and recalled what Cynthia had just said and went over the same gist
Both
h speeches were fairly the same, but Leonard’s statement appeared a rad all over the place as though he had memorized it at the last minute. Some of the audience raised objections, but none could call it plagiarism based on the inept performance.
Came the judge’s sneer. “I bet this participant here is pleased
Cynthia smiled and ordered Beck and others to bring up the manikin for the simulation. This is the key we’re getting at. There’s no more intuitive way to word it than putting it to practice.”
Then, she approached the manikin. This manikin has been injected with something that simulates cancer cells. Now, let’s witness how this robot removes the cancer cells
Cynthia started the robot. The cumbersome robot suddenly stretched out its mechanical arms and flexibly held the surgical tools, disinfecting, cutting the abdomen, scanning, locating and excising, all of which were done in one gn.
The crowd was amazed. Should the robot hit the market, it would cause a sensation
Leonard stood on the other side and narrowed his eyes slightly. He could not figure out what Cynthia was up to Cliff had stolen Cynthia’s data, so it was safe to say they were the same
Since everything was a duplicate, Leonard could not tell what was the point of Cynthia pulling such a move
While Leonard struggled with that thought, he heard Cynthia say, “Well, that concludes our presentation. The stage’s yours now, Mr. Ford” Leonard frowned as he turned on the robot
The robot also stretched its arms out from the bulky body, the process up to that point was all but the same as that of Cynthia’s robot
“This part ́s also identical. How can we find out who plagiarized?” remarked someone.
“Exactly! Since it’s a plagiarized work, the data naturally will be the same. A same presentation is meaningless, someone in the crowd complained. There Cliff was in his seat eyeballing up the stage with a smug men
Driving the robot project which would soon be invested by Sullivan Group to fall into a controversy of plagiarisan was his intention, after all. That way, even if the project wanted t
to proceed further, it would never be a cinch.
cliff had
tried his best to let Leonard make his presentation a little ahead of Cynthia in order to gain the advantage of public opinion,
If Cynthia failed to provide strong evidence that they plagiarized her work, the majority of public opinion would favor the first who had shown
their work.
Just as Cliff was gloating, the crowd gasped.
He looked over carefully and saw that the robot, which had been orderly before, suddenly seemed to go haywire as it waved the scalpel and ravaged the manikin’s belly frantically
Clearly, the robot had incorrect data programmed and malfunctioned.
Leonard on the stage widened his eyes and stood there in a daze.

Gliff, in turn, stood up, ran over, and shouted, “What are you spacing out for Shut it down“”
Only then did Leonard bolt over to do exactly that.
The maniacal robot stopped. Alas, the manikin wa
was beyond recognition
None dared to imagine the consequences had a real human were in place of that manikin
“How dare you use such a defective product in the competition? Give it up already, you. Don’t make a fool of yourself”
“People like this should be kicked out of this industry. This is obviously work of plagiarism.”
“You should’ve at least copied with diligence. How could you fail to detect such a massive loophole?”
“What an utter disgrace to our design community,”
Such comments from the spectators only shamed and flustered Leonard to no end.
Right when Leonard could bear the pressure no more and was all ready to spill it, Cliff zipped onto the stage and glared daggers at Leonard before pronouncing to the onlookers, “If even living things can be identical, why can’t designs be similar? Although our competitor’s work is perfectly presented, ours is faced with problems due to different data, which just proves that there are indeed differences between our robots. We’ll admit that we lack expertise, but we’ll deny plagiarism.”
Cliff could scheme all he could to smooth things over, but sadly, not on Cynthia’s watch. “Still giving excuses, are we? Since you guys insisted that you didn’t plagiarize, care to show us the data of your robat?” were Cynthia’s words.
Cliff turned to her. “Why’d we show you something confidential like that?”
That made Cynthia shake her head. Then, there’s nothing more to say
Just then, several police came over. “Which one of you made a report?”
Cynthia raised her hand at that. “It’s me, sir”

Of all the terrible translations this is by far the worst. Garbled rubbish with different languages in between. I wouldn't recommend this novel!...
