Superman Termination Manual - Chapter 281

Chapter 281: Chapter 185: Deadly Meeting with Gastella (Part 2)

Ke Mingye pulled out a T-shirt and shorts from the storage locker while asking.

“At noon, I happened to see you entering that train station,” Ke Xiaomo answered.

“Damn, I thought I was hidden well enough. You bumping into me probably means I wasn’t careful enough.”

As he spoke, Ke Mingye put on the clothes he had just taken out and then sighed slightly, “Honestly, Second Brother, I don’t think you’re suitable to be a Taoist anymore.”

“Why?”

“Suddenly I feel that you’re more suited to be a private detective; not doing it is a waste of talent,” Ke Mingye mocked.

Ke Xiaomo was silent for a moment, didn’t pick up the topic, and simply asked, “Your chest wound, it’s not a big problem, is it?”

“No. It’ll heal in a couple of days. I am a Superpower User after all; you should see how tough I am.”

“How did you join the Superhero Association?”

“Bai Yi. That superhero said his Commander was very impressed with me and then he gave me a business card,” said Ke Mingye, “I called the number on that card and said I wanted to keep my identity hidden within the association. The Commander agreed, and then I met him at a scheduled time and got the association’s ID card from him.”

While talking, he took out the Superhero Association’s ID card from the pocket of the Blue Owl Battle Suit, showed the front of the ID card to Ke Xiaomo, and closed the storage locker.

“Impossible.”

Ke Xiaomo stared at the ID card, frowning slightly and said decisively, “The Commander of the Superhero Association, how could he officially register someone without a publicly disclosed identity as a superhero?”

Ke Mingye was silent for a moment before saying, “His son is the Gray Dove. Do you understand what I’m saying now?”

Ke Xiaomo was taken aback, then quickly grasped the implication behind Ke Mingye’s words.

“So that’s how it is…” he murmured softly.

“I’m going home to rest. Second Brother, you shouldn’t just sit here either; you’re not planning on secretly taking my battle suit to burn it, are you? Just to be clear, if my battle suit goes missing, I’m coming to you first tomorrow.”

While saying this, Ke Mingye turned around and stepped towards the stairs at the exit of the platform, his figure gradually swallowed by the darkness.

Before returning to the train station, he summoned another Deception Puppet, transforming it into a Magic Girl, and then slipped the spare mobile phone into Xiaohongmao’s Magic Book.

So there was no need to worry about Second Brother finding the phone in the storage locker; otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to just leave the train station like this.

“Che Zhengchen probably has been blowing up my phone by now; he never would have thought that I would just leave without saying a word,” Ke Mingye thought silently as he walked on the moonlit road home.

After a brief walk, he arrived in front of the duplex apartment building, ascended to the 12th floor in the elevator, and saw Bai Wenna standing at the entrance of the corridor, brandishing a feather duster menacingly.

Ke Mingye clicked his tongue, stepping out of the elevator, trembling slightly.

She asked, “You know to disappear without a message all day now?”

Ke Mingye said, “Second Brother took me out on a crazy adventure; don’t believe me? Ask him.”

Bai Wenna smacked his head hard with the feather duster, “Alright, kid, I’ll let you off for now, but when your Second Brother comes back, we’re settling this together.”

Ke Mingye nodded, scratched his hair, and hurried past Bai Wenna, taking off his shoes to enter the living room.

Sitting on the sofa, Bai Zini asked, “Big brother, why have you been getting home so late recently?”

Bai Ziling, sitting on one side, said, “Exactly.” Handing him a bottle of Wong Lo Kat from the table, she added, “This is all that’s left.”

Ke Mingye took the bottle of Wong Lo Kat, twisted off the cap, and gulped down a big drink, “Thanks.” After speaking, he casually ruffled Bai Ziling’s white hair.

Bai Zini narrowed her eyes, “Didn’t you say that even dogs wouldn’t drink Wong Lo Kat?”

“Brother is a dog,” Bai Ziling said matter-of-factly.

“Alright, alright, I’m a dog, I’m a dog.”

Ke Mingye said without expression, stepped up to the second floor, returned to his own room, locked the door, and laid down in bed.

“Truly fucking exhausting.”

As soon as he lay down on his bed, he could hear his mother below scolding Ke Xiaomo, “Now you know to take your brother out gallivanting until this late?”

“Great job, Mom, actually managing to distract Second Brother for me; now I don’t have to worry about him spying on me.”

Ke Mingye took the opportunity to pull out the Magic Girl Transformation Card, transformed into Xiaohongmao, then extracted the spare mobile phone from the Magic Book, and quickly returned to his original form.

No sooner had Ke Mingye grasped the spare mobile phone in his hand than he heard an angry shout from downstairs: “Mingye, you come down here too.”

Ke Mingye rolled his eyes, decided to ignore it completely, and put on ear muffs; after all, the room door was locked, and unless his mother was so angry that she used the spare key, there was nothing she could do about him.

He propped his right arm under his head, unlocked the phone screen, and glanced at the apps on the homepage.

A few days before, Ke Mingye had casually asked Cai Bing, “Can you help me create an app that allows for risk-free email sending without worrying about personal information and sending address being traced?”

Turns out, Cai Bing had actually taken the time to create such an app in the past couple of days and had sent it to his spare phone just a few seconds ago.

Instead of saying sent, it was more like “stuffed,” because the hacker girl apparently found it too troublesome, so after creating the software, she directly hacked into his spare phone and downloaded the app straight to the homepage.

Strangely enough, when Ke Mingye unlocked his phone’s homepage, he saw an unfamiliar app nowhere to be found.
