Chapter 188 Damn, this time it's a good thing!

Liu Jianguo's voice echoed in the empty meeting room, carrying a sense of grief and indignation, as he felt he was the only sober person present.

He felt his logic was simply unassailable.

The movements of the robot dog in that video were too fluid, and its tactical coordination was too perfect; it didn't look like anything current human technology could create.

Therefore, eliminating all impossibilities, the remaining one, no matter how outrageous, must be the truth.

'That must be AI-generated!'

"Chief! You have to believe me!"

Liu Jianguo looked at the Old General, his tone pained, "Current technological means are too advanced. To frame me and make me take the blame, these bastards have truly stopped at nothing! They even cooked up this kind of sci-fi blockbuster!"

However, the response he got was still the Old General's expressionless face and that look like he was watching a fool.

"AI-generated?"

The Old General gave a soft huff and tapped his fingers on the table, "Jianguo, do you think the official diplomatic protest note submitted to us by the Israel Ministry of Defense is also AI-generated? Do you think the condemnation statement just released by The Pentagon of the Ugly Country regarding Eastern Country's secret weapon exports was also written by AI?"

Liu Jianguo was stunned and opened his mouth, "Huh?"

The Old General didn't waste any more words and waved his hand directly at the secretary beside him, "Let him die knowing the truth."

The secretary nodded and tapped a few times on the keyboard.

The image on the big screen changed.

The video paused and switched to a set of high-definition battlefield photos.

These were the pieces of evidence captured by the Israel military after clearing the battlefield.

In the photo was the wreckage of a robot dog that had been somewhat deformed by the explosion but still retained its overall structure.

And on the charred abdominal armor plate of that robot dog, one spot still maintained its original silver-white color.

There, printed clearly, was a pattern that Liu Jianguo could never forget even in his dreams.

An avatar of a cartoon bear grinning foolishly, looking quite cute.

And the line of square, upright Chinese characters below, which appeared incredibly glaring at this moment: Li Family Toy Factory.

Below that was another line of small text: Made in Li's Toy Factory / China.

Boom!

The instant he saw those five characters, Liu Jianguo felt his brain go numb.

He froze in his chair, his eyes fixed on the screen, his pupils suddenly constricting.

It's it again!

It's this damn toy factory again!

And it's that Little Rascal — Li Jiajun — whom he hated so much his teeth itched, yet could do nothing about!

In an instant, countless bad memories flooded his mind.

From the initial Swarm Drone blowing up an armored brigade, to the later stealth elderly joy playing with the whole city, to the giant jumping rope to block an aircraft carrier, and then to...

Every single time these five characters appeared, it meant Liu Jianguo's blood pressure would rise, it meant he would have to go clean up someone else's mess, and it meant his peaceful life would be disrupted once again!

'I knew it! I knew it!'

'I said, who else in this world could pull off something like this besides that troublemaker!'

A familiar sense of dizziness immediately surged up.

Liu Jianguo felt his heart twitch violently, and his breathing suddenly became difficult.

His PTSD was triggered.

His face turned pale, and with trembling hands, he skillfully reached into his jacket pocket and took out the small white porcelain bottle he always carried — quick-acting heart-saving pills.

"I... I..."

Liu Jianguo tremblingly poured out a few pills and was just about to shove them into his mouth, wanting to suppress this impending heart attack.

However.

At the very moment those pills were about to reach his mouth, his movements suddenly stopped.

Liu Jianguo remained in the posture of opening his mouth to take the medicine, freezing completely.

His gaze was still fixed on the big screen.

But what he was looking at was no longer the logo, but a set of performance parameter analysis reports next to the robot dog wreckage.

This type of robot possesses extremely strong all-terrain adaptability, and the balance system was not interfered with by the terrain...

Its power core is suspected to use some kind of high-torque-density micro-motor, with amazing explosive power...

It is suspected to have autonomous tactical planning capabilities, and is presumed to use advanced distributed AI algorithms...

Looking at these descriptions, a thought suddenly flashed through Liu Jianguo's mind.

'Wait.'

'Something's not right.'

'These parameters... why do they look so familiar?'

'Aren't these the abnormal indicators required in the four-legged intelligent combat platform breakthrough mission that was pushed down by superiors a few days ago?'

'Isn't this the impossible pit of a mission that made me worry so much that my hair was falling out in handfuls?'

Liu Jianguo's eyes rolled around, and his brain, which had stopped working due to fear, began to spin rapidly.

"That's not right."

A thought suddenly popped up, instantly piercing through all his fear and anxiety.

'Since these parameters match the abnormal indicators required in the four-legged intelligent combat platform breakthrough mission pushed down by superiors...'

'Since this thing has already wreaked havoc on the battlefield, proving its performance...'

'Doesn't that mean...'

'The national-level key breakthrough project I'm in charge of... has already been completed?!'

'And it was completed beyond the quota, perfectly?!'

'This is a damn good thing!'

Once this logic was connected, Liu Jianguo felt the blood in his whole body boiling, rushing straight to the top of his head.

What private sale of arms? What diplomatic protest? That's all nonsense!

In the face of a national strategic-level technological breakthrough, those are all minor matters! They are all minor matters that can be argued about!

Most importantly, that four-legged robot mission that kept him awake and almost drove him to death has been solved!

Moreover, this is a monumental contribution!

Clatter!

Liu Jianguo swung his hand violently, tossing the life-saving small porcelain bottle back onto the table, and a few brown pills rolled onto the mahogany tabletop.

He didn't need to take the medicine anymore.

At this moment, it was more effective than eating a ton of ginseng!

The pain, despair, and paleness on his face receded at a speed visible to the naked eye, replaced by an irrepressible, glowing flush that emanated from every pore.

It was a kind of ecstatic joy that was almost maddening.

He felt that he had simply been given PTSD by that Little Rascal Li Jiajun before; why did he want to take medicine every time he saw him?

This time it's different!

This time, this kid has delivered a monumental contribution to him!

In the meeting room, the Old General and several other chiefs were preparing to call the military doctor in to see if Liu Jianguo was not going to make it.

As a result, they saw this Minister Liu, who had just looked like he was about to have a heart attack, suddenly slap his thigh hard.

Slap!

A crisp sound startled the secretary who was taking notes nearby.

Immediately after, Liu Jianguo looked at the big screen, the features on his old face instantly relaxed, and his mouth stretched wider and wider until, in the end, he could no longer control it.

"Hahahaha! Good! Too good!"

A burst of shrill, loud laughter suddenly rang out in the serious meeting room.

Liu Jianguo laughed until he was rocking back and forth, tears almost streaming out.

He pointed at the robot dog on the screen, his eyes full of affection and pride.

"I succeeded... Old General, I really succeeded!"

Laughing, he shouted incoherently, completely ignoring the looks from the people around him as if he were a madman.

It's no wonder he reacted so strongly.

In fact, 'During this time, I've been tortured enough by this damn silk-footed platform, no, I mean, four-legged intelligent combat platform.'

'Every night I dream about insufficient motor torque and balance algorithm errors.'

Now, everything is solved!

How is this a shock?

This is clearly a pleasant surprise!

It is the best gift given to him by that evil genius Li Jiajun!
