Superman Termination Manual

The strange thing had one hand on his hip and the other on the bathroom stall door, leaning in to look at the blue owl.

The blue owl checked his appearance in the mirror, then fixed his gaze on it.

"Superhero?" the strange thing raised an imaginary eyebrow and said with disdain, "I hate superheroes, a bunch of clowns in tights... Do you want to be a clown too?"

"And you're any better? I think kids would vomit if they saw you," the blue owl retorted.

"I say, can we blow this guy up..." the strange thing covered its face and pointed at the blue owl, "His way of speaking is so disgusting, like a little brat trying to mimic his dad."

"It's just you and me here. Who are you talking to?"

"To Ke Mingye."

"Aren't you Ke Mingye?"

The strange thing shook its head: "No, no, no, strictly speaking, you're Ke Mingye. You have control of Ke Mingye's body, which means you can blow both me and yourself up."

As he said, Personality 1 inside Ke Mingye had control of his body and the blue owl was controlled by him;

while the personality controlling the strange thing was Personality 2, which could be said to be independent from him.

The blue owl cocked his head, asking, "Then why would I want to blow myself up?"

"Good question."

The strange thing gently tapped on the stall door with its five fingers, muttering, "Your damned way of talking, and those damned clothes, they all remind me of that damned crow, oh... the tyrant of Huanjing, the brute reviled by thousands. He would never imagine that such a ludicrous figure would have an imitator..."

"Three 'damned' in one sentence, you really must hate him," the blue owl said.

"What else?" the strange thing replied.

Having said that, it reached out to open the stall door, sat on the toilet seat, and made a motion as if to pull down pants, before realizing it had none.

It looked down at its body and felt its buttocks, "Wait, why don't I have that thing? I wanted to perform taking a dump in front of you."

"You're just a puppet, so you don't have that thing," the blue owl said.

The strange thing sat dejectedly on the toilet, hands covering its face: "Really unlucky, I thought you called me out here in the toilet to poop with me."

It paused, "Speaking of which, aren't you also a puppet, why do you get to wear clothes? I suggest you get me a set of clothes too, to achieve puppet equality..."

The strange thing was speaking when suddenly a train conductor uniform appeared on it; it touched the fabric, but in the next second, it vanished.

It looked up angrily: "Hey, where are my clothes?"

As soon as those words were spoken, the strange thing suddenly became motionless, collapsing forward like a heap of mud, with its buttocks up in the air on the toilet, and its head hitting the floor.

At the same time, in the room of the Bai Ke family.

Ke Mingye voluntarily ended the "Personality Split," holding his throbbing forehead and took a deep breath.

"If it splits into such a personality every time, then working together in practice is almost like collaborating with a madman," he thought.

When Ke Mingye was alone controlling the puppet in a frenzy, he appeared very neurotic, but his mind was actually clear.

But separating that part of rationality, isolating this part of the personality alone, was different.

It was truly mad...

Who knows what the strange thing would do?

Ke Mingye shook his head to clear his thoughts and sighed. He had a lot on his plate and no time to worry about this.

Later, he borrowed a bag from the shopkeeper using Puppet No. 1 and placed the "blue owl" battle suit inside. Then, using spiderweb, he quickly traveled through the city, shortly arriving at the abandoned train station in Old Jingmai District.

He couldn't hide the suit at home because his parents weren't there these days, and the cleaning was up to Ke Xiaomo. While cleaning the rooms, just by merging into the shadows, he could easily observe every corner. Thus, even if he hid the battle suit under his bed, there was a high chance Ke Xiaomo would discover it.

In conclusion, storing it at the abandoned train station in Old Jingmai District was a safe choice.

When needed, he could just operate the puppet to come over and put on the battle suit.

This place was temporarily their secret base, and if their play-pretend plan collapsed, they could also escape Huanjing by using the No. 7 card to board a train.

The Deception Puppet placed the bag containing the battle suit in a dilapidated storage locker at platform 9, then found an open space within the station and self-destructed.

One puppet was dealt with, but there was another still at the gaming store. Read new adventures at empire

Ke Mingye lay back on the bed, instructed Puppet Number Two to return to the video arcade, and greeted Cai Bing, asking her to meet him later at the café on No. 7 Old Jingmai District Street.

He then jumped from the windowsill to the eave and disappeared near a coastal self-destruct.

In the afternoon, Ke Mingye found some free time and went to the agreed-upon café in person to meet Cai Bing.

Cai Bing examined him and commented, "In person, you look just like a little kid."

"It's called a baby face."

Ke Mingye sent her a friend request.

"Okay, baby face Magic Girl."

Cai Bing accepted his friend request.

"Let's go, I can't stay out too long."

As Ke Mingye was about to get up, from the corner of his eye he suddenly caught a glimpse of someone coming up the stairs.

His pupils contracted slightly, but his face quickly regained composure as his right hand picked up the lemonade and brought it to his mouth.

Accompanied by footsteps that were neither hurried nor slow, the person approached.

They gently placed a hand on Ke Mingye's shoulder and spoke with a hint of surprise, "For real? Our little Mingye has started drinking coffee too."

"Actually, I came for the ice cream, but it's a bit too pricey for me to order."

Ke Yinzhi smiled and said, "I'll treat you to it then. Why didn't you send me a message? I was just coming back from outside."

As he spoke, he turned his gaze toward Cai Bing, who was sitting across from Ke Mingye, "And who is this?"

"A sister I bumped into at the café." Ke Mingye sipped his lemonade and shrugged, "I don't even know her name yet."

Cai Bing looked up from her phone and looked at Ke Yinzhi's face, giving a fake name.

"My name is Song Yawen."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ke Yinzhi's character panel appeared in her eyes.

[Character Name: Ke Yinzhi]

[Ability: A++ level (possesses top fighting power far beyond 99% of the superhumans in the world)]

[Hidden Identity: Black Judge (a public figure from the Anomaly Control Bureau, one of the five S-level enforcers)]

Cai Bing immediately shifted her gaze away from the panel and gave Ke Mingye a resentful look as if to say, "Are you trying to get a brother killed here..."

But Ke Mingye lowered his head, not even glancing her way, engrossed in his cell phone.

At this point, he could only play dumb.

Seeing Ke Mingye decisively lower his head and essentially clear himself of any connection, Cai Bing sighed silently in her heart but maintained a calm demeanor, continuing to stare at Ke Yinzhi's face.

She said, "I saw this little brother sitting here alone, so we started chatting."

"Oh... I didn't expect this kid to have such charm," Ke Yinzhi raised an eyebrow.

"Not... what do you mean? I've received love letters at school before too, okay?" Ke Mingye nudged him with his elbow, muttering.

"Primary school or kindergarten?" Ke Yinzhi laughed.

"Kindergarten."

"There you go."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Cai Bing glanced at the two of them and asked curiously, "You two seem close, are you friends?"

"No, I'm his brother."

Ke Yinzhi said while pulling up a chair to sit down beside the table, "Miss Song Yawen, haven't you ordered a drink yet? Let me treat you to something."

"Really?"

"Of course." Ke Yinzhi flashed a smile, picked up the menu from the table, and while flipping through it asked, "What would you like?"

Without any hesitation, Cai Bing said, "Cappuccino."

"Okay." Ke Yinzhi picked up a ballpoint pen from the table, checked an option on the menu, then looked up at Cai Bing, "I frequent this café often. How about we exchange contact info?"
