All My Superpowers Come from the Law of Causality-Chapter 42: Seeking Help from Fang Keyi

"Are you asking these questions because you want to take revenge yourself? The killer is clearly not an ordinary person, and with so many guns, you can’t possibly do anything to them. It’s better to wait for the police to investigate; once there’s an outcome, I’ll ask my dad to help get the best lawyer and charge them with the heaviest crime possible..."

"Tell me!"

"..."

Seeing Su Xin’s resolute gaze, Fang Mengzhu knew that at the moment, Su Xin wouldn’t listen to any advice. She could only sigh lightly and say:

"I haven’t been involved with these matters and am not familiar with those forces, so I can’t help you with this. However, I can ask my dad for you."

Su Xin thought for a moment and reluctantly nodded:

"Then I’ll trouble you with this. It’s best to compile an electronic document and send it to me quickly. After all, there must be numerous forces in Lening City, and relying solely on oral accounts might lead to many omissions."

"Also, try to provide detailed content, like roughly how many people are in these forces, where their main area of influence is, where their headquarters are, what their main businesses are, and if they have had any past interactions with Kangbo Biological Company."

"It’s okay even if there’s none. Just send me as much information as you have."

Fang Mengzhu nodded repeatedly: "No problem!"

Su Xin pulled her over and gave a light kiss on her red lips, smiling bitterly: "I’m not in a good mood. I probably won’t have time to be with you for the next few days, yet I still have to bother you..."

Fang Mengzhu gently covered his mouth, looking into his eyes with deep affection: "Given our relationship, there’s no need to say these things."

"Mhm."

Su Xin nodded.

"By the way, have you eaten? With what’s happened, you probably haven’t had a chance to eat, right? Let’s have a meal together; once we’re full, we’ll have the energy to continue the investigation."

Su Xin shook his head:

"No, I’m really not in the mood to eat right now; I just want to uncover the truth as quickly as possible."

"Mengzhu, the culprits have committed such a serious crime that it’s already shaken up the authorities. They might try to destroy all evidence or arrange special channels to flee abroad, so we must investigate as fast as possible; otherwise, the longer it takes, the slimmer our chances of finding anything will be."

Fang Mengzhu knew he was extremely anxious right now, so she could only say: "Then I’ll quickly contact my dad and compile that information."

"Mhm, I also need to visit the scene and see if I can find any clues the police missed."

Aside from his superpower, Su Xin was actually just an ordinary person who didn’t understand investigation skills. He simply refused to wait passively and wanted to occupy himself, lest he drown in sadness and perhaps also try his luck.

"I’ll head back now."

Fang Mengzhu stood up reluctantly.

Su Xin also got up and wrapped his arm around her waist, walking out together: "Let me see you off."

The two parted ways in the community’s parking lot.

Watching the red sports car disappear around the corner, Su Xin stepped forward and hailed a cab outside the community to head to the crime scene on Jiuan Road.

When he arrived, he found the entire street cordoned off with ice cream cone-shaped barricades. The road was full of potholes, both big and small, and several spots on the ground had visible dark red patterns, clearly uncleaned bloodstains.

The thing that puzzled Su Xin the most was —

Several spots on the ground had bizarre distortions and indentations, marks that definitely weren’t caused by impact. The lines were extremely smooth and natural, more like the asphalt had melted under high temperatures, naturally flowed, or was pressed by heavy objects before cooling down again.

"Why use high-temperature attacks on the convoy? Did the killer use a flamethrower?"

"Or a Superpower User?"

Having superpowers himself, Su Xin first thought along the lines of supernatural abilities when faced with irrational occurrences.

Soon, he noticed the other side of the street, where an old residential building was isolated by a barricade.

The entire concrete wall facing Jiuan Road had large areas with odd marks, similar to those formed when something melts and cools, extending from the rooftop to the ground.

This made Su Xin almost certain that these traces must have been left by a Superpower User. After all, if it were an attack like a flamethrower, the perpetrator wouldn’t waste so much firepower on a residential building.

Moreover, the ability to attack all the way from the rooftop to the bottom was hard to imagine with any high-temperature weapon having such a far range.

"There really are Superpower Users in this world."

Su Xin looked at the marks on the building, then at the melted marks on the road, unable to understand the exact situation during the battle. He could only guess that one side had a Superpower User related to high temperature or flames.

To find more clues, Su Xin directly lifted the barricade and entered the old residential building.

It was already eight o’clock in the evening by now, and darkness had set in. The streetlamps in the area weren’t too damaged, providing adequate visibility.

But inside the residential building, all the residents had been evacuated urgently, and there wasn’t a single light on, only some emergency signs with luminescent materials glowing dimly green, adding an eerie atmosphere to the building. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

At this point, Su Xin was completely unconcerned and took out his phone to turn on the flashlight, climbing the stairs step by step while looking for possible traces.

...

On the other side.

After returning home, Fang Mengzhu hurried upstairs to find her mother, learning that her father hadn’t returned yet. She decided to call him.

"Dad, can you do me a favor, I..."

But before she finished her sentence, Fang Keyi on the other end of the line interrupted: "I have something very important right now; if you need anything, have your mom arrange it for you, okay?"

"Dad!"

Fang Mengzhu shouted angrily: "It’s the first time I’m asking you for help, and you’re being like this! I really have something very, very important; it won’t take up much of your time."

Fang Keyi sighed helplessly.

Perhaps remembering that his daughter rarely asked for help so directly, or realizing that his previous actions might have brought destructive disaster upon his family, he finally responded patiently:

"Go ahead."

"I want information on all the forces in Lening City, regardless of size, as detailed as possible."

"Why do you need all this?"

Fang Keyi asked in surprise.

"Come on! Don’t worry about it; just compile it and send me the electronic file. I’m waiting for it. Thank you, Dad!"

"No way!"

Fang Keyi sternly refused, adding: "Are you getting involved in something? If there’s any issue, I’ll have my subordinates handle it for you. You’re not to get involved in these matters, understood?"

"No!"

Fang Mengzhu quickly denied it.

But she also knew that if she didn’t say anything, her father would only worry more, not only rejecting her request but also sending people to investigate her, which would be much more troublesome.

So she explained the situation with Su Xin briefly, describing him as a very good ordinary friend, and said:

"He suspects his parents’ deaths might be linked to a local force, so he wants to investigate from this angle. Dad, I’m not expecting you to help my friend much; just sending these materials to him would be fine, right?"
