After breakfast, Connor and n finished discussing their work, and the two set off for Oakville.
Along the way, they picked up Bryan from the R&D department.
The drive took about two and a half hours, during which Connor and Bryan discussed the products
in the back seat.
As they neared the factory, the car fell silent.
The driver asked Cam, “Cam, do you have a driver’s license?”
Connor rested his hand on the armrest, looking up at her.
Cam nced at the steering wheel and sighed, “I passed the driving test on my second try, but
I’ve been too scared to drive.”
The driver chuckled, “No worries, just practice more. You can ask me if you don’t understand
something.”
Cam responded, “Yeah, I’ve already arranged with my driving school instructor to get some
practice during my annual leave.”
She turned to Connor and asked, “Mr. Connor, does my annual leave start ruing from when I
joined the subsidiary?”
Future Inc.’s policy was five days of annual leave upon joining, with an additional day added each
year.
Connor nced at her and hummed in affirmation.
Cam smiled joyfully.
“Mr. Connor, you’re exploiting Cam so much she can only learn to drive during her annual leave,”
Bryan joked.
Bryan was Connor’s schoolmate in college, and they had a good personal rtionship, often joking
with each other.
Cam did some quick mental calctions. Connor upied most of her time. They spent over 12
hours together every day, including
weekends.

2 The group arrived at the factory at noon. It was just lunchtime, and the factory manager hosted
them in the factory’s dining hall.
Lunch was simple farmhouse dishes, the same as what the factory workers ate.
Knowing Connor was particr about cleanliness, Cam conscientiously sterilized the utensils with
boiling water.
“Cam is so thoughtful,” Bryan said, taking the utensils she offered.
Cam just smiled.
During the meal, they talked more about technology than they ate.
Cam just quietly eating the dishes in front of her
Connor picked up the serving utensil, and pushed aside the green onions on the fish to serve
Cam a piece.
Cam, who was nibbling on some greens, mumbled, “Thank you, Mr. Connor.”
Connor didn’t respond, setting down the serving utensil and continuing to discuss matters with the
factory manager as if nothing had
happened.
Bryan spoke up, “Cam, this fish grew up in mountain spring water, it’s wild–caught with tender
and delicious meat, fresh and without
any fishy smell. It’s a local specialty. Even my kids love it when I bring them here.”
Cam smiled and tried a bite. It was indeed delicious.
Thus, every few minutes, Connor would help Cam have some different kinds of dishes, ensuring
that by the end of the meal, Cam had a taste of every dish and was fully satisfied.
After a brief rest, the factory manager took them to the showroom to disy the Future Robot 3.0,
including a new product Cam
wasn’t aware of,
Future Go and Future Go Pro.
Future Go, a bionic intelligent robotic dog with a soul, would definitely turn heads when walked on
the street. Capable of understanding human speech and interpreting emotions, it was endowed with
consciousness and thought.
Future Go Pro was a quadruped robot designed for firefighting and emergency rescue. It could
enter potentially mmable, explosive, toxic, oxygen–deficient, or smoke–filled disaster sites in
advance of human rescuers to conduct environmental reconnaissance, providing real–time
feedback tomanders and assisting in making informed decisions. Its purpose was to reduce the
risk of injury to rescuers and improve the efficiency of rescues.
Cam looked at Connor with admiration. These innovations could revolutionize the rescue system
and bring significant value and benefits to society.
