Chapter 114: CIA Speculation

"How do they get the cables and wires through the vents? As far as I know, they're so thin that they can't fit an entire arm. The vice president asked.

"The robot, some kind of advanced plumbing robot, travels through the pipes at an incredible speed, and we can be sure that the other party is familiar with the structure and diameter of the ventilation holes, and the pipeline robot is specifically designed for this size of aperture, and we can guess that it advances through 360-degree wheels stuck in the ventilation holes. ”

"So who do you think the spy is?" This time it was the Minister of Defense who was questioned, and his face was still not good-looking.

"For the time being, we can't say for sure, we have implemented 24-hour surveillance of all the staff in the military laboratory that night, I just said that there are two spies, one is the person responsible for tampering with the camera records, and the other is the person who directly committed the crime, and we guess that the spy responsible for the direct crime is one of the 17 special forces who died. ”

"What nonsense!" the Minister of Defense slapped the table, he could not tolerate Michelle insulting the fighters who died for their country.

"Mr. Minister, if it weren't for one of the 17 fallen soldiers, we can't explain how the spy ended up leaving the central room. ”

"So tell me where Sam's laptop and the missing Power Stones went, they weren't on any of the dead ones. ”

"As I said, there's a duct robot in the vent, and if you cut it horizontally three times with a tool, you can get it out of the vent, and even if you might damage the hard drive, you can fix it when you get out. The other party used the robot to take the notebook completely away in order to give us the illusion that the criminal spy had left safely. ”

"Excluding the suspicion of the murder of Sam and Brown, the top officials of the military laboratory, we investigated the whereabouts of the 17 soldiers who died an hour before the crime, and five of them did not have an alibi for them, but the remaining 12 could not escape the suspicion, because we did not ensure that among the witnesses we investigated were the second spy planted by the other party. ”

"There's no alibi, isn't there any camera, is it fake?"

"I repeat, the footage in the camera has been tampered with, and the other party has done it in a very clever way, and the traces of tampering have been eliminated. ”

"The other party lurked behind Sam and followed him into the central room, we checked Sam's case, he has low blood pressure, heart disease and glaucoma, he is skinny, fainting easily, and because of the treatment of glaucoma, he also has problems with his eyesight, if it is a master lurking behind him, even if it is close at hand, he will probably not be able to find it. ”

"The rest of the story is easy to explain, the spy accidentally triggered the alarm when committing the crime, and in that case he was unable to escape, so he let the robot carry the blood crystal, and he stayed behind to fight the soldiers who arrived later, and finally he killed everyone, and he was also seriously injured and died, of course, more likely suicide. ”

"Wonderful, wonderful!" Michelle, who was wearing brown glasses, clapped his hands, but no matter how he listened to his words, it was full of sarcasm, "To explain the impossible into a possibility, Mr. Smith is worthy of being a lawyer." ”

Smith snorted coldly, "If you have other ideas, I'd like to hear them." ”

The vice president said: "Michelle can also talk about it, Smith's analysis is not unreasonable. ”

Michelle knocked his pipe and said with a smile: "I remember that there were 17 special officers and soldiers plus 1 laboratory leader, a total of 18 people, except for two who died from the shooting of M4, the rest died from dagger assassinations." And I examined every dagger and spur on the scene, and none of them were soaked in the blood of more than 10 people, as Mr. Smith said, so where did this dagger that killed 16 people in a row? Did he even have a dagger to send out to the robot? Oh, by the way, as you said, this man used this dagger to kill himself......

Smith frowned, and didn't refute anything, in fact, he didn't know that his inference was doubtful, but he really couldn't think of a better inference.

"Also, you said that the camera was tampered with, I find it hard to believe, at 20:06 New York time yesterday, the camera located at the entrance of the basement clearly captured 17 officers and soldiers plus Mr. Brown A total of 18 people entered the basement, which means that these 18 people had an alibi when Sam was attacked, if you insist on saying that one of them was added later, then I can only feel that the other party's ability to modify the video is too strong. ”

"Also, if you want to modify the video so perfectly, you have to do it from the inside, directly from the host of the monitoring room, so why do you have to do it from the outside? My people have checked the camera, and there are traces of someone hacking from the network and replacing a video. ”

Michelle said this, Smith interrupted him coldly, "You don't have to show off your findings, what is in front of us is an impossible thing, every inference has holes, all we can do is try to seek an inference with the least holes as a conclusion." ”

"No, no, no, you know there's a conclusion that is easiest to explain, but you don't want to believe it. ”

"What's the explanation?" asked the vice president.

"I simulated every possible modus operandi with my men, all of which ended in failure, and I came to the conclusion that the other party was a paranormal with abilities we didn't know about. ”

"What ability?" Smith scoffed, "wall-piercing, teleportation, invisibility, or are you going to tell me that he turned into a fly and flew out when the soldiers rushed in?"

There are indeed all kinds of abilities in the world, but their abilities all follow the laws of physics, to put it bluntly, they are the control and use of some energy, using energy to release fireballs, condense water into ice, move quickly, and even fly short distances.

It can be said that all the effects that can be achieved by human beings with high-tech equipment can be achieved.

It was once rumored that some of the Adepts could teleport over short distances, but in fact it was just an illusion caused by their speed.

But things like wall penetration, stealth, and metamorphosis cannot be explained by the physical principles at this stage, the human body cannot pass through the wall, and the light cannot pass through the human body, taking a step back, even if there is a way to make the human body transparent, it cannot eliminate the refraction of light through different media, otherwise this violates the basic principle of the fastest light travel.

If there is refraction, it will be discovered, that is, with the current technological means understood by humans, complete stealth is considered impossible. That's why Smith is sarcastic.
