Discussion Is it short circuit ? Saw that after opening the laptop for the first time to upgrade the RAM in an extra empty slot.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

To me, that looks like adhesive residue from a sticker. You might want to take some isopropyl alcohol, a q-tip and see if that build up comes off.

To answer the question in your thread's title, it's not a short circuit...well you won't see a short circuit show up like that.
