Superman Termination Manual - Chapter 111

“Please, I really want to know what happened between big brother and that magic girl…”

Ke Mingye leaned the back of his head against the sofa, muttering to himself.

So far, the people involved in this matter included at least his dad and his elder brother. Apart from his mom, these two were the most taboo subjects for Ke Mingye in his family.

But he was also curious about what dispute Ke Yinzhi had with that magic girl, yet watching a live stream on the dark web was not an option—as Qing Ya was famously known for opposing videographers, and with him around, anyone trying to stream near Wine Reflecting Coast would immediately see a huge crow swooping in.

The better outcome would be having one’s phone confiscated by the crow, hanging by its feet in mid-air; the worse outcome was having filming equipment buried in the sand.

Ke Mingye looked up at the ceiling and sighed softly, his spirit of gossip still burning fiercely within.

“No, I must find out this gossip.”

He hesitated for a moment, but the desire to gossip ultimately overcame his fear. He excused himself to the bathroom upstairs and once again released the Deception Puppet, heading towards Wine Reflecting Coast.

Then he returned to the living room downstairs, sat on the sofa, and logged into the Dark Pigeon dark web to openly watch the live broadcast.

At this moment, the Mechanical Castle was still slowly moving towards the shore.

Its upper half resembled a whale, while its bottom half was much flatter, with metal fins opening and closing, densely packed mechanical tentacles contorting behind the castle like a fish’s tail, chaotically flapping in the water, propelling the castle forward, stirring a tumultuous tide as it slowly approached the city.

Logically, this Mechanical Castle should have multiple modes; otherwise, such a form would be quite difficult to maneuver on land.

At this time, most of the comments on the Dark Pigeon network were discussing who the “Black Judge” actually was.

After all, unlike the Superhero Association, the Anomaly Control Bureau kept the identities and code names of every operative strictly confidential. Ordinary people might never come in contact with the Bureau in their lifetime, let alone know the code names of the operatives.

Bai Qiuwu glanced at Ke Mingye’s phone with the corner of her eye and asked quietly, “Our little friend Mingye is even watching the dark web, for real?”

Ke Mingye was nonchalant, “Who doesn’t have the dark web saved on their phone?”

“What’s there to see on the dark web?” Bai Zini, embracing a giraffe cushion, spoke indifferently, “Boring, better to watch a movie with your dear sister.”

“Yes yes yes.”

Ke Mingye thought to himself that she was used to dealing with superheroes and magic girls daily, probably sick of seeing their faces, so of course, she wouldn’t find the dark web interesting.

“By the way, you haven’t gambled on the dark web, have you? Don’t fall into bad habits.”

Bai Qiuwu looked at him earnestly, asking with concern.

“How could I?” Ke Mingye sighed, “I just occasionally watch some live streams, never gamble.”

“I don’t believe it, big brother is definitely on the dark web watching those erotic superhero videos.” Bai Zini said as she hugged her chest and vehemently turned her face away, “Ew… just like a pervert, it’s scary just breathing the same air as you.”

Ke Mingye fiddled with his phone, casually replying, “You’re too dramatic, whoever watches that stuff on the dark web is a dog, okay?”

Just then, several live streams on the Dark Pigeon network were engulfed by a massive flock of crows, losing signal.

The audience of the live stream could only see pitch darkness while a harsh crowing sound came through.

Ke Mingye sighed, put down his phone. With the speed of the Deception Puppet, it would take about six minutes to travel from Old Jingmai District to Wine Reflecting Coast.

While everyone on the sofa made small talk, the puppet was already nearing the scene.

…..

…..

Meanwhile, at the Wine Reflecting Coast.

“The famous Black Judge of the Management Bureau… also owes emotional debts?”

Qing Ya stood at the top of the lighthouse, looking down on the figure descending the coastal stairs, his words dripping with sarcasm.

“You misunderstand, Mr. Qing Ya, it’s just her clinging to me one-sidedly, and I’m not interested in kids,” the Black Judge responded reluctantly, adjusting the V-shaped mask on his face as his coat’s tails fluttered in the wind.

“Just don’t bring unnecessary trouble to the city over your little romance,” Qing Ya said coldly.

“I’ll do my best.”

The Black Judge left the remark hanging and walked towards the sea, leaving uneven footprints in the sand.

As he approached, a pathway formed from dark shimmering light materialized over the sea. He stepped onto the dark flat surface and traversed the tumultuous ocean, slowly nearing the Mechanical Castle.

Magic Girl Yuffie, standing on the platform in the middle of the Mechanical Castle, blinked upon seeing him, then lowered her face. Her dark violet shoulder-length hair and dress fluttered in the sea breeze, a shift of light moving in her eyes.

Soon, the Black Judge stopped on the platform where Magic Girl Yuffie stood, looking up at her from behind the mask.

“Long time no see,” his tone was like that of greeting an old friend.

Yuffie paused for a moment, asking, “You finally agree to see me?”

“Aren’t you saying it backward?” the Black Judge cocked his head, “Wasn’t it you who locked yourself away in Marselisborg Forest, unseen by anyone?”

“That’s true.”

“So, what do you want from me, still about that thing last time?”
