Dilos, who is far away from Arctic Icefield, wears a simple winter coat, a furry ear muffs and a cool high-tech style windshield. He is flying slowly above the white snow in the strong wind using telekinesis to control his body.

"Sir, Dr. Connors has received the message."

Hearing the news coming from the earmuffs, Dilos then ordered, "Stay on standby first, connect to the satellite of S.T.A.R. Labs, and notify me at any time if there is any news."

"As you command, sir."

Since Dilos's own Mind Stone sensing ability is easily shielded by some special alloys in terms of detection, in order to avoid the embarrassing situation of not finding the person, he made corresponding multi-functional micro devices based on the knowledge and technology obtained by Albert and Tony-Stark in the previous life movie.

The cool windshield he wears is made with micro-technology.

It can be connected to artificial intelligence at any time to send and receive messages, and it can also emit corresponding harmless reflected rays for perspective and detect life magnetic fields. After adjustment with microscopy technology, it can not only zoom in and out to capture images freely, but also emit a variety of rays to detect metal components and analyze gas components in the air during the process.

In addition, this miniature device also has strong resistance to high temperatures and cold, so there is basically no need to worry about the device being damaged due to climate problems.

Coulson and his team arrived a month ago, but unfortunately there has been no progress. In order to increase the efficiency of the search, Dilos noted down the places that were not searched and started group operations with them.

If nothing similar to the target was found this time, they would have no choice but to go home.

Because that would mean that Captain America did die decades ago, and there would be no point in continuing.

There was still strong wind blowing on Arctic Icefield, and the flying snow blocked the satellite's observation, which also hindered the exploration progress of Dilos.

In order to avoid missing something, Dilos can only fly at a speed of six meters per second in the snow.

This is so painful Dilos.

Ever since he was able to move at fifty times the speed of sound with the blessing of the speed suit, he never thought that one day he would have to move at such a stationary 'snail' speed.

However, in order to repay this debt, Dilos could only patiently continue to search.

Central City on the other side.

Barry, the poor little fresh meat whose superpowers were sealed by Dilos, was wearing gloves, holding detection instruments and tweezers, looking for something in the corridor of a high-rise building that had obviously been blasted.

A cordon has been set up not far away, and the police around Barry are conducting witness investigations and maintaining the scene.

Barry's adoptive father and direct supervisor, Detective Joe-Wei Ster, was standing aside with the relevant files waiting for news. (ps: When Barry's biological father was wrongfully imprisoned, Joe-Wei Ster was responsible for adopting him)

Seeing Barry frowning and looking solemn, the other party couldn't help but have a bad feeling in his heart.

"Barry, did you find anything?" Qiao asked subconsciously.

Barry sighed after hearing this, spread his hands, straightened up and walked towards Qiao.

"Nothing."

"Nothing?" Joe had a strange look on his face.

"Yes." Barry took a deep breath and said, "Generally, the blasting sites created by bombardiers have some special markers."

Barry pointed at the obviously distorted and shapeless steel around it with a lot of scorch marks and said, "Like curled metal wires, bomb fragments... As long as I analyze these things, I can basically deduce and measure the ingredients and even complex ingredients."

Speaking of this, Barry was a little entangled and said, "It's not that I don't have the ability. I can guarantee that as long as you give me a bomb, even if it has exploded, I will definitely be able to find clues."

"Uh..." Hearing what Barry said, the bad premonition in Qiao's heart became stronger. He turned to look at Barry: "It sounds like you have to say no."

Barry nodded tangledly and said helplessly, "That's right, because I have tested it no less than ten times, and I haven't found the oxide needed for the bomb."

"It's as if this piece of metal exploded on its own." Barry pointed at the twisted, charred black metal in front of him and said, "There is no residual trace of oxide left."

Qiao didn't doubt Barry's words. He knew that the latter didn't need to lie to him. But he was also confused about this. "But it shouldn't be possible for metal to explode on its own."

"The security guard said the bombardier was a beautiful woman with red hair."

As soon as Qiao finished speaking, a masculine man's voice came.

The two looked to the side and saw a man in a suit with an angular face and short blond hair walking towards them holding a confession in his hand.

"The other party probably cut off the surveillance video line, otherwise we wouldn't have so few clues here." The man looked at the two people and said helplessly, "Since there is no continuous footage, I need to look elsewhere to see if there are any other clues."

With that said, the man left in the other direction.

Hearing this, Barry and Qiao looked at each other. Based on Central City's abnormal situation in recent months, they felt that there was probably a kind of person who might meet the requirements for committing the crime.

"Including the clues mentioned by Eddie, when most situations have been ruled out, there is another situation that is very likely." Qiao said solemnly.

"It's Mutant."

Barry covered his forehead helplessly.

Can a bomb be detonated directly without relying on oxide? So far, Barry only knows that Mutant can do this.

"I wonder if that Superpowered Guard Team person knows these things."

Qiao curled his lips. During this period, whenever he encountered such a particularly troublesome and almost unsolvable case, he especially hoped that Superpowered Guard Team, who worked as a vigilante in Central City, would appear.

This team is a timely help, always showing up when they need it most.

But...

"Unless we let the media expose this matter, they won't know about it." Barry told the truth very cruelly, because once they are exposed to the media, the police will have to face criticism from many parties.

In fact, what he didn't say was that he knew where the people in Superpowered Guard Team were. As long as he shared the information with these people, they would find the criminal.

'It's just that there have been a lot of security guards at S.T.A.R. Labs recently. It would be difficult for me to go there. If I enter as a police officer, Joe will definitely go in. It seems that I can only call...'

Barry thought for a while, then found an excuse to leave, then took out his cell phone and called S.T.A.R. Labs.

On the other side, Dilos, who had been searching Arctic Icefield for three days and three nights, looked up at the huge ice-covered thing in front of him, his eyes filled with horror.

"What the hell is this?!"
