A small robot 'lures' large robots into quitting their jobs at a company

In the middle of the night, a strange incident happened at a technology company in Zhejiang, China. The company reported to the police that a series of robots displayed in their exhibition room suddenly "disappeared without a trace".

However, when checking the surveillance camera, the truth behind the "disappearance" made everyone laugh. It turned out that the "kidnapper" was a small robot, who with just a few words lured the entire group of robots to follow him.

Specifically, it started asking the larger robots "concerned" questions like "are you guys still working overtime?" , and the larger robots started replying "we haven't finished work yet" . Next, the small robot continued to ask "do you guys have a home to go back to?" .

When it learned that the big robots had no home to return to, it immediately "invited" them: "Then. come home with me" . In this way, the small robot successfully convinced the two big robots in the exhibition to follow it. Unexpectedly, as time went on, more and more robots joined the "homecoming army", causing a total of 12 robots to leave the exhibition hall.
