Playing faster than light

I played a non-increment game that was interesting in that the opponent actually played his final move faster than light. The clocks before his final move show 22.5 seconds remaining on his clock but after he moved, it showed 22.6 seconds remaining. How is this possible? Did he break the space-time continuum like Superman did when he reversed the rotation of the Earth or is there a more likely solution?lichess.org/qFxkEELU/black#64
Maybe he used flashforce or speedforce and got hit with a cannon in the process lok
The clock you see 22.5 seconds is your clock and 22.6 seconds is server clock.
It happens when server synchronize all three clocks.

Remember there are three clocks ticking independently (actually six clocks in graphic interface)
1. Your clock in your screen
2.Opponent clock in his screen
3. Server clock
I have played faster than this. 25 moves in a 15 sec game
