You shouldn't type in all caps. Also, your question is ambiguous; "any two consecutive square numbers" cannot be one even number. If you stated something like "Any two consecutive square numbers *are* even numbers" then there would be infinitely many counterexamples (since the statement cannot be true), e.g. 4 and 9.
