"An ability with strong attack power... very good." Xiao Canong nodded, "When carrying out a mission, do you think the outcome is more important or your teammates? For example... sometimes it’s necessary to sacrifice teammates to achieve the goal..."

"I don’t think that’s a good choice. If I have to choose, I don’t want to sacrifice anyone." Elorie said frankly.

"Hmm... very idealistic."

"Is there a problem?" Honglian interjected.

"Of course not, I’m just trying to understand your team members better." Xiao Canong spread his hands, "Last question, would you do something unjust for the sake of the justice in your heart?"

Elorie was silent for a moment.

"What kind of questions are these? Why wasn’t this mentioned when I joined the team?" Honglian frowned.

"Isn’t this a very important matter?" Xiao Canong looked at her, "The Dimensional Limit Mechanism is an organization that aims to protect all of humanity, without a doubt it’s just. But the righteousness of its ideals often attracts many people who consider their actions just... and when there are too many of the latter, it often weakens the organization’s strength. As the head captain, I naturally need to find out how many such people are in the Jiang City mechanism."

He paused slightly at this point, "Why, didn’t the former head captain ever consider these things?"

"Ugh..." Honglian held her breath.

"I think... it depends on how just the matter of justice is." After a moment, Elorie finally spoke, "If necessary, I am not averse to some unjust actions."

"Thanks for your answer." Xiao Canong neither commented on right or wrong nor expressed his own thoughts, just clapped his hands, "Your group’s conversation is over, you both can leave."

After they left, he asked, "How was it?"

The person he was questioning was clearly Wang Qianduan, who had been standing behind him.

"I’ve documented everything, you can feel it for yourself." The latter extended his hand, placing it on the captain’s head.

Wang Qianduan could not only hear heart voices but also convey them.

The psychological activities he probed were transmitted into Xiao Canong’s mind like a recording tape.

The questions were all set with a pre-designed nature.

The first question was to reconfirm Elorie’s reason for wanting to join the Dimensional Limit Mechanism—she saw the organization’s promotion through TV news and thought that the heinous demons also fell into the category of Ability User crimes, so she hoped to achieve the capture target with the help of more capable people.

The second question’s original intention was to test which world the other party had traveled from.

Xiao Canong couldn’t help but let out a "huh" when he sensed this, "Are you sure you didn’t hear wrong?"

"Hmm, I can’t understand it for now either." Wang Qianduan nodded calmly.

Heart voices are not just one or two simple words, but many thoughts that emerge in an instant. The stronger the emotion, the easier it is for him to capture it. If there are several strong thoughts at the same time, they can even form a picture. For instance, when Elorie answered the question about her hometown, she immediately thought of her home, the breakfast she often ate, and the city she lived in...

It wasn’t the past France, nor the future France, but France that was extremely similar to this era.

This violated the theory of invasion point appearance.

According to the mechanism’s analysis, there are many nodes in history, separated by a constant: 126 years. So far, the same world invasions they observed all conformed to this principle, and they have completed several historical corrections according to this principle too.

But the world Elorie had traveled from before her crossing was clearly too close to the year 2025.

Judging from the street scenes she reminisced about, the gap should be no more than 50 years.

In this way, history cannot fit before a node arrives, and the time paradox will become difficult to control.

The premise is that they can find a way to enter Elorie’s world.

Xiao Canong couldn’t help but chuckle softly.

"What are you laughing at?" Wang Qianduan asked curiously.

"You think, with the invasion points so close together, might there be another me on the other side? And what is that me doing right now, just thinking about it seems interesting."

"I think this discovery should be reported to the organization headquarters. Once a contact paradox occurs, we or they might completely vanish!"

"No rush, we can’t make a judgment based solely on Elorie’s heart voice. Moreover..." He paused for two seconds, "The organization’s theory may not be correct."

"Theory... incorrect?" Wang Qianduan was stunned.

"We’re exploring the unknown; isn’t it normal to be wrong?" Xiao Canong curled his lips, "Very well, it’s decided—Execution Team’s first task is to help Miss Elorie catch that demon!"

The third question... the most concerning person, was actually meant to hear her inner description of the demon. The fact is, when people are asked this question, they don’t first think of the standard answer, but of the person who has most recently impacted them the most. For Elorie, this subject was undoubtedly the one she had always wanted to hunt down.

The heart voice responded clearly, it was a French man, aged above 30, who had appeared in the eastern area of the city’s High-tech Zone. Features: bald, tall and thin, wearing glasses.

Elorie had passively arrived in this world in her pursuit of him, so it’s possible the other party is the Wanderer. The code name of the demon symbolizes danger, which also fits the Wanderer’s ability.

"The High-tech Zone has at least two million people." Wang Qianduan reminded.

"Searching an entire district is very difficult, but if narrowed down to a specific street or park, the intelligence team should be able to find something." Xiao Canong picked up the phone on his desk, "Help me search the database to see if there have been any gravitational fluctuation records over the past half-month in the Jiang City High-tech Zone. Yes, even ineffective ones count."

Ten minutes later, there was a reply, "A total of 1632 fluctuations were detected."

Fluctuations occur all the time.

Thus, only those repeated same-frequency fluctuations when detected would be considered of concern by the detection machine, and other records would be deemed invalid information.

But if other specific conditions are added, manual screening can be conducted.

Xiao Canong described the man’s features, "Combine the fluctuation record and check the nearby sky eye surveillance to see if you can find someone similar."

This can also be seen as a benefit from their cooperation with the local police.

"I think the chances of finding him aren’t high." Wang Qianduan said flatly, "Last time, with such obvious features of a colorful-haired girl, the sky eye has not had any alerts, there must be a problem with AI recognition."

"Hmm..." This point also left Xiao Canong helpless. He originally thought he could quickly catch a big fish following that woman, but several days have passed without a trace, as if the other party completely disappeared in this city. "...The doctor said that the technology popular outside is already a generation behind the organization. Once Jiang City replaces the intelligent cameras developed by the organization, the situation should improve."

However, he then chuckled, "Maybe this time our luck will be a bit better? After all, I’ve always been an optimistic person."

As if to affirm the head captain’s words, in less than half an hour, a member of the intelligence team pushed open the door and walked in.

"Captain Xiao, the sky eye has found something."

He handed a stack of photos to Xiao Canong.

The latter spread them out on the table and found the people in the photos closely matched Elorie’s "description"—foreign male, bald, wearing glasses, with a briefcase under his arm, and the suit he wore was quite proper. The places where he was snapped were mostly front of industrial areas and hotels, and indeed, there is a considerable number of industrial bases in the High-tech Zone.

Just based on appearance, he looks more like a foreign entrepreneur rather than the so-called demon.

"See, what did I tell you?" Xiao Canong looked smilingly at Wang Qianduan.

The latter sighed, rubbing his forehead, "Just because he looks similar doesn’t necessarily mean he’s related to Elorie."

"Now that the AI found him, his identity should also be checked, right?" Xiao Canong asked.

"We didn’t find a corresponding person in Jiang City’s entry and exit records," the intelligence team member responded, "Maybe he didn’t fly directly to Jiang City. If he detoured from other cities, we still need to apply for an entry-exit comparison, which will take at least a day."

"Not having one is suspicious." He smiled slightly, "Soldiers being swift and decisive is crucial, we can grab him and question later."

"Grab directly?" Wang Qianduan raised an eyebrow.

"Of course, or should we notify the police first?" Xiao Canong retorted, "The way the Dimensional Limit Mechanism used to carry out such secretive tasks, we follow even now. After all... this was our excellent tradition."
