Everyone you save is killing the person you will become in the future;
If saving someone is murder, then I would rather be the sole killer in every case;

Time is the kindest executioner: it makes you personally sign the death notices of everyone you hold dear;
Featuring a dense barrage of mind-bending cases, the most unhinged champion of justice, and the most yandere AI in web-novel history;
The time-paradox version of The Silence of the Lambs is here!
In 2045, humanity drilled the first hole in the timeline.
Things that should not exist began appearing at crime scenes.
A corpse was wrapped in self-repairing quantum film, a technology that should not be invented for another hundred years.
A weapon in a suicide case was found to contain a metal isotope that had yet to be invented.
The killer's fingerprints belonged to a baby who had not yet been born.
Chen Shi, the FCM's (Future Crime Management Bureau) most dangerous “accomplice.”
His hands can touch evidence from the future, letting him glimpse the killer, but every use of his ability tears at the timeline.
When he saves his tenth victim, the AI issues a cold warning:
“According to our calculations, this person will blow up the space elevator seven years from now, killing three million people.”
And the most terrifying truth is this: every weapon from the future that keeps appearing bears his DNA.
