Team Leader Li Wu obviously rarely heard of this term, so he turned to Lu Kai and asked:

"What is the grandfather paradox?"

Lu Kai scratched his head and explained:

"This is a kind of time paradox, and the grandfather's paradox is that once you go back in time and change the development of certain history, there will be a logical paradox."

"For example, if he went back in time and killed his grandfather with his own hands, will he still exist in the future?"

"If he didn't exist, then his grandfather wouldn't die, and there would be him in the future, and he would be able to go back and kill his grandfather."

This is a logical time paradox, which was once one of the most serious scientific topics in the last *** Anthropocene.

In order to solve the "time paradox", there have been various hypotheses, one of the most popular is the "parallel universe" hypothesis, which means that every time a choice is made that is different from history, a new parallel world will be born.

It's no wonder that the young investigator Lu Kai can't figure it out, and few people can figure it out today.

"I don't know."

Xu Canqiang endured the physical discomfort and shook his head.

He's not a super ability, he just has a D-rank ability.

I don't have the guidance of my predecessors in terms of time abilities, so that's all I know for now.

Regular abilities are divided into eight levels according to the strength of the ability factor.

E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS.

There's a big difference in the power of its destruction, the strength of its abilities between levels, and the degree of control it has.

Among them, A-level is a watershed, once it reaches A-level, the energy of the supernatural is very likely to surpass that of scientific weapons, the destructive power is amazing, and all aspects of physical fitness will be transformed.

Seeing Xu Can's almost collapsed appearance, Li Wu put handcuffs on Xu Can again and said solemnly:

"Xu Can, before we have completely cleared your suspicions, we can't release you, so we can only ask you to cooperate with the investigation temporarily."

"Don't worry, Jianghai University, I will send someone to communicate, and it won't have any impact on you."

Xu Can had no other choice, nodded and replied:

"No problem."

Li Wu bowed slightly:

"Lu Kai, take him to rest first."

"Yes!"

……

Click-

"Inform the groups, and the conference room will meet in ten minutes."

Li Wu walked out of the interrogation room and ordered all the investigators in the entire investigation room.

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

The case has taken a major turn, which is a huge impact on the entire seven groups of different tunes.

Now all districts in Jianghai City are not peaceful, and Luohe District is not a rich area like Jiangdong District, so naturally the same is true, and it is urgent to arrest the real murderer to appease the people of Luohe District.

In the seventh group of the S.C.I abnormal crime investigation team, the team leader is Li Wu, and the deputy team leader is Chen Jikang.

There are three major groups below: [Arrest Group], [Investigation Group] and [Verification Group].

Among them, the capture team is responsible for capturing abnormal criminals, and will participate in the work of the investigation team when there is no capture task on weekdays, among which there are not only capable and extraordinary abilities, but also ordinary elite agents who are proficient in various combat and firearms.

The Investigation Team is responsible for investigation, interrogation, and case analysis.

The forensic team is a technical department, which not only has technicians responsible for surveying the scene and identifying the authenticity of all aspects, but also has a forensic team of five people.

Generally, the work in the anomaly bureau will not be divided into special details, and many arrest tasks will also be involved in the investigation team.

The investigation team will also be involved.

……

Ten minutes later, S.C.I. conference room.

Li Wu pushed the door in, and the entire conference room was a little noisy, obviously discussing the case and the shocking Xu Can.

Before the meeting officially began, Wang Xiaoya, a beautiful investigator from seven groups with bangs, quickly entered the conference room and whispered beside Li Wu:

"Head!"

"Jiang Shen has arrived."

"How?"

"The information is correct, and it is basically consistent with Xu Can's confession."

Time was pressing, and Wang Xiaoya had already inquired about Jiang Shen in the car back to the bureau with Jiang Shen.

When Jiang Shen heard that it was the Investigation Bureau's involvement in the investigation, he didn't dare to hide anything without knowing what the big deal was.

"What about people?"

"Under further inquiry."

"Okay."

"Let's get started, Ke Yue."

Li Wu looked at Ke Yue, who was calm and capable, and had a heroic posture, who was the female investigator who had just been in charge of interrogating Xu Can.

Ke Yue nodded and inserted a USB flash drive, which stored all the relevant information of the case.

Several pictures were automatically switched one by one, most of which had already been announced during the afternoon preliminary investigation meeting, Ke Yue quickly and briefly:

"The first deceased, Chen Lei, female, 23 years old, secretary."

"The second deceased, Jiang Mingyue, female, 19 years old, college student."

"The third deceased, Zheng Ying, female, 26 years old, unemployed."

"The cause of death is the same, they all died from canine gnawing, and the intensity of the ability factor is similar, and it was included in the investigation."

The pictures of the deceased on the projection were extremely bloody.

The second and third female deceased had many bloody wounds on their bodies, and the fatal injuries were carotid arteries.

The first deceased, Chen Lei, was the most miserable, there were no corpses, only some corpses that had been divided by canine monsters.

After investigation, it was confirmed that the crime was committed by a stranger, and the dog bit the carotid artery until the deceased died.

This suggests that the killer is most likely a criminal with a canine transformation ability, or an ability to control a canine ability.

No intersection has been found between the three deceased so far.

The details of the case were discussed once during the afternoon meeting, Ke Yue did not talk nonsense, and went straight to the topic:

"The breakthrough in the case is in the third case, the Zheng Ying case."

"Just now, we arrested Xu Can, the suspect who appeared at the crime scene of the third case."

……

With Ke Yue's introduction, the picture on the PPT suddenly switched to Xu Can, a smiling sunny young man.

As soon as Xu Can's photo appeared, a young investigator wearing glasses in the conference room pushed his glasses, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile.

"Xu Can, 19 years old, a sophomore at Jianghai University, ability sequence 1-1, space-time ability, ability strength D level, basically confirm that the confession is true."

As soon as Ke Yue's words fell, Wang Xiaoya, the beautiful investigator on the side, immediately synchronized the preliminary dictation and basic information about Jiang Shen, and immediately there was a lot of discussion in the conference room.

Obviously, so far, the mysterious space-time ability that Xu Can has controlled still can't convince all seven group members, it's too mysterious.

"Head, is there a possibility that Xu Can has made sufficient layouts and preparations in advance, and deliberately hid the second ability, in fact, Xu Can is a double ability?"

"After all, the murderer's ability level shouldn't be high."

Speaking out was a young investigator who had just joined Group 7 and participated in the investigation of Xu Can.

Dual abilities, as the name suggests, are abilities that possess two superpowers at the same time, which is extremely rare, but it is not impossible.

Li Wu shook his head decisively and said in a deep voice:

"Impossible."

Xu Can's ability can complete self-proof at any time, and it is impossible to set up such a game.

The second is that Ke Yue's lie detector ability confirms that Xu Can is not lying, unless Xu Can is an S-class ability.

If Xu Can is an S-level ability, can he be caught here just by relying on the seven groups of abnormal tunes?

Another investigator spoke up and analyzed:

"That means that Xu Can is not lying, he really doesn't know why he appeared near the crime scene."

"Confirm that Xu Can was not at the crime scene that day, so who was there at the crime scene that day?"

"Could it be that the face-changing killer again?"

Hearing the words face-changing killer, the faces of several investigators present changed.

This guy is one of the famous killers in Jianghai City, and has been wandering in Jianghai City, earning a reward for killing, because his superpower of changing appearance has made S.C.I helpless to this day.

"It's almost unlikely."

"Judging from the previous cases of the face-changing killer, except for the ability to change his appearance, he is just an ordinary person, and he does not have a second ability related to the control of canine changes."

Ke Yue, who was standing upright, analyzed.

There was silence in the conference room for a moment, and Li Wu's eyes turned to the middle-aged bearded scumbag who had been looking through the materials not far away.

Nie Zebing, who is currently the leader of the arrest team and temporarily serves as the head of the investigation team.

In terms of combat effectiveness, it is very likely that he is the number one person in the seventh group.

"Old Nie, let's talk about it."

Nie Zebing closed the information, wiped his beard, crossed Erlang's legs, and expressed his views on the case:

"Step by step."

"Since this kid can complete time travel, it means that this guy is very likely to be himself."

"It's just that he doesn't know it yet."

Nie Zebing pouted, and the PPT was exactly the picture of Xu Can appearing near the crime scene.

The apprentice sitting next to Nie Zebing swallowed his saliva, and his voice gradually rose:

"Boss Nie, you mean, this is the future Xu Can?"

"If it was the future Xu Can who killed someone in the past, how should this be calculated?!"

Nie Zebing glanced sideways at this stupid apprentice, leaned back in his chair, and said with his hands around his chest:

"The motive for the crime, the modus operandi, and the timeline, Xu Can doesn't have it."

"I don't think the murderer in this case is Xu Can."

Just now, Nie Zebing carefully looked through the relevant information about Xu Can.

Generally speaking, the three elements of criminal motivation include education, stimulation and environment, and no one is born a criminal, and it is clear that Xu Can does not have this experience.

The second is the three elements of solving the case, the motive for the crime, the modus operandi, and the timeline, which Xu Can does not have at present.

"Then is he Xu Can?"

Nie Zebing's apprentice was completely confused, staring blankly at the picture on the screen.

Nie Zebing and Li Wu glanced at each other, shrugged their shoulders, and guessed:

"Now that the pressure is so great, do you think this Xu Can ......?"

"Could you have sent it?"

The conference room quickly fell silent, and as soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes focused on Team Leader Li Wu.

Li Wu's face was quite calm, and he was not surprised by Nie Zebing's guess, because he also thought of this possibility.

There are now frequent cases of abnormal crimes in Jianghai Autonomous City, and the third deceased in the serial murder case in Luohe District can be described as panicking.

Chen Jikang, the deputy leader of the No. 7 Group, went to the S.C.I. General Administration at noon to report and fight for time for the No. 7 Group to solve the case, and it was urgent to solve the case.

"Time Travel ......"

"Time Travel ......"

"That's right, just send this kid over and see who did it!"

One of the investigators slammed his fist and exclaimed.

Now the case is deadlocked, and the time given to solve the case is limited.

Compared with the clueless random investigation and collision, if this sudden Xu Can is not the real murderer, wouldn't it be a gift from God to the seven groups of different tunes?

"Head!"

Li Wu touched his chin, then raised his head and said to everyone solemnly:

"You investigate the case normally, looking for clues other than Xu Can, especially the common characteristics of the three victims, interpersonal relationships."

"Regarding Xu Can's side, I'll go and talk, you don't care about it for the time being."

"Don't take Xu Can as a lifesaver, remember, you are S.C.I. investigators."

Hearing Li Wuxun's words, the investigators immediately cheered up and replied loudly:

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Okay, it's time to rest, now in a special period, you have to cheer up your spirit."

It had only been twenty-four hours since the third deceased appeared, and they had previously focused almost most of their attention on Xu Can, and there was still a lot of information that had not been dug up.

Although it is known that the murderer is very likely to have the ability to transform into a canine or control the canine, it is impossible to investigate on a large scale.

In general, neonatal blood tests will have abnormal energy factor detection.

If you are born without the ability factor, it is impossible to awaken the superpower and become an ability.

Once you have an ability factor in your blood, you are a potential person.

It is impossible to determine whether it is an abnormal person or not, because there are many ordinary people who have not awakened all their lives.

There are usually five types of awakening abilities: [Born Possession], [Natural Awakening], [Accident], [Extreme Emotions], and [Acquired], and there are various types of awakening.

Sorted by the order of ability, the first category is [Space-Time Class], the second category is [Rule], the third category is [Elemental Class], the fourth category is [Anthropomorphic Class], the fifth category is [Control Class], the sixth category is [Body Class], the seventh class is [Soul Class], the eighth class is [Healing Class], and the ninth class is [Special Class].

Space-time abilities are already rare, and abilities like Xu Can are even rarer!

At the end of the temporary meeting, Li Wu looked at the time on his mobile phone with a solemn face, it was already late at night, and some investigators were called up by the case early in the morning, and they were busy all day, extremely tired, and went back to rest for the time being.

There are also core investigators who know that the time is tight and stay behind to work overtime to investigate.

"Head."

Li Wuzheng was about to leave the conference room, when a familiar voice came, and when he looked up, it was Luo Dongyang, a young man with black-rimmed glasses from the S.C.I General Administration.

Ability sequence is [5-32], amnestic.

The job in the Seven Alien Group is very simple, if it is necessary to delete the memories of passers-by, etc., he will take action.

"Dongyang?"

"What's the matter?"

"Borrow a step to speak."

"What's the matter?"

"About Xu Can."
