Superman's End Manual

In Bai Zini's eyes, this so-called "Black Wukong" was simply looking for trouble. She was fighting well when suddenly a cloud carried her tens of thousands of miles away. Who wouldn't be angry in that situation?

Looking back now, if Bai Qiuwu doesn't consider her as Bai Zini, but rather as the magical girl Ash, then her strength was indeed more than enough to deal with that criminal.

But when I first met her, I couldn't help but think of her as that fragile little girl, so my subconscious thought was to get her out of danger, which led to my unnecessary actions...

If it weren't for this, Bai Zini wouldn't have harbored resentment towards her and would have been chasing after her every day.

"Never mind, I need to go home first."

Bai Qiuwu shook her head slightly, no longer speculating about Bai Zini's thoughts. Instead, she put on the sports jacket on the table and wore a baseball cap.

I stopped for a while at the bus stop on the coastal highway, boarded the last bus, and gazed out the window at the brightly lit city. Everything seemed so surreal, like a mirage.

Soon after, the bus stopped at the station on Laojingmai Street.

She had just gotten off the bus when she saw a familiar figure next to the platform.

Ke Youqing, who hadn't returned home yet, was sitting on a public bench next to the supermarket, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes in his hand, and a lighter.

Upon seeing Bai Qiuwu, Ke Youqing remained silent, simply sitting there calmly and winking at his daughter.

"Dad, have you been smoking here for an hour?" Bai Qiuwu asked him, arms crossed, amused.

"No, I went for a walk after buying cigarettes."

As he spoke, Ke Youqing lowered his head and brought the lighter closer, lighting the cigarette in his mouth with a click. He asked in a muffled voice, "Did you have fun with your friends?"

"It was alright, we just went shopping together and then came back." Bai Qiuwu tilted her head and added, "It was pretty boring."

"Then let's go home, otherwise your mom will get angry again."

"Ah."

The two left the supermarket and took the elevator to the ninth floor of the duplex apartment building.

When Ke Youqing opened the door with his key, his gaze passed through the entryway and he could see that the children in the family were gathered in front of the large TV in the living room watching a movie.

"Oh, Xiaomo's back too?"

He had a cigarette in his mouth, his eyes fixed on the tall, thin figure in the living room, a look of surprise on his face.

Bai Qiuwu was also surprised, thinking that Mingye had said that his second brother would not be back for two days. How come he was home in the blink of an eye?

Hearing the voice, Ke Xiaomo turned to look at Ke Youqing and said, "Dad, I had something to do, so I came back early." She then glanced at Bai Qiuwu and asked, "Why are you back so late?"

"I went out with friends," Bai Qiuwu said. "Brother, are you staying here for the whole summer vacation?"

"Yes, I didn't have much to do this summer, so I stayed home," Ke Xiaomo said. "But you, you'll be a senior in high school next semester, are you under a lot of pressure?"

"It's alright, just take it easy," Bai Qiuwu said.

Ke Mingye sat on the sofa, munching on potato chips, and said, "She goes out to play every day, doesn't need to study, and is still in the top ten of the grade. Second brother, you don't need to worry about her."

"And what about you?" Ke Xiaomo said, looking at Ke Mingye. "I heard your grades have dropped drastically recently. Don't let it get to the point where you can't even get into a top university."

Ke Mingye chuckled: "Then I'll definitely follow your example. I scored over 600 points, but instead of going to a 985 university, I went to study at an ordinary university in Xi'an. My parents are almost driven crazy by you."

He said this, but he knew that Ke Xiaomo did it in order to find a university closer to Yingfan Mountain so that it would be easier to contact the Ninja Sect.

Bai Zini poked her head out from behind the sofa and shouted, "Dad, I'm in a real bind! Our TV membership is about to expire, please recharge it quickly!"

"Okay, I'll top up in a bit. Watch it while you can."

Ke Youqing said irritably, and walked upstairs to the second floor with a cigarette in his mouth.

Bai Qiuwu closed the door and kept her eyes fixed on Bai Zini.

She was watching a movie with Bai Ziling, Ke Yongzhu, Ke Xiaomo, and Ke Mingye. It seemed to be the Lord of the Rings trilogy. As always, Bai Zini liked to stick close to Ke Mingye. Besides Bai Ziling, Ke Mingye was her best friend since childhood.

Does Ziling know that Xiaoni is a magical girl? Bai Qiuwu thought, what about Mingye? Should she talk to them about this? But what if they don't know?

Thinking this, her gaze lingered on Ke Mingye. Ke Mingye was still the same as always; while others were watching a movie, he was looking down at his phone, occasionally yawning.

"That's unlikely." Bai Qiuwu shook her head.

Ke Xiaomo took a sip of water, turned to look at her, and asked, "What are you standing there for at the door? Aren't you coming to watch the movie with me?"

"You guys take a look first, I'll be there after I take a shower."

As Bai Qiuwu spoke, she took off her sneakers, put on slippers, and walked towards the second floor.

"What do you mean 'come here'? Don't we have school tomorrow?!"

Bai Wenna came downstairs just then, muttering under her breath, "A bunch of little brats, all they know how to do is use your second brother as a shield, thinking they don't have to sleep just because Xiaomo is back?"

Bai Qiuwu brushed past her and said helplessly, "Okay, Mom, we're happy that Second Brother is back. What's wrong with staying up a little later?"

Bai Wenna glared at her: "You still dare to talk back, especially you and Mingye, two high school students. You should sleep when you're supposed to. Don't think that just because summer vacation is coming soon you don't have to study!"

Bai Qiuwu smiled and didn't reply.

As she walked up the stairs, a thought suddenly popped into her head: what would happen if she used her keen eyes to scan everyone in the house?

Will it be like the look she gave the magical girl Ash, where her entire worldview was turned upside down?

Thinking this, she stopped and stood silently in the shadows of the stairs. She turned her head and glanced at the profiles of her family members.

It was clear that Ke Mingye had no interest in watching the movie and was already trying to slip away, but Bai Zini stopped him, shouting something.

Ke Yongzhu and her second brother Ke Xiaomo chatted about their experiences as school bullies; Bai Ziling remained silent, her red pupils quietly reflecting the scenes from the movie.

Although everyone has grown up, each person is still the same as she remembers them.

Just like every summer vacation since then, everyone gathered in front of the TV, sitting on the sofa, without any distinction or barriers, simply sharing joy and laughter.

Despite living in a chaotic era, it was an ordinary, happy family. For Bai Qiuwu, returning home after each fierce battle outside was like returning to a peaceful harbor.

She didn't want to break the status quo.

Thinking of this, Bai Qiuwu silently dismissed the idea of ​​discussing Bai Zini's matter with her parents or other siblings.

After all, she also kept her secret. Since she didn't want her identity to be exposed to her family, then Bai Zini must be the same.

Why bother? Bai Zini isn't a child anymore; she knows what she's doing.

Just like I was two years ago, I gained superhuman strength and thought I was truly omnipotent, so I couldn't help but want to do something.

"We're all the same..."

Bai Qiuwu muttered to herself, her gaze lingering on Bai Zini for a second before she moved upstairs.

At this moment, Ke Mingye, who was sitting on the sofa, glanced at her back silently, and then quickly looked away.

"Look, look, I'm so sleepy I can't stand it anymore..." he said listlessly, his eyelids almost closing.

"No, brother, just watch this one with me before you go to sleep! We'll watch the last one tomorrow." Bai Zini tugged at his shoulder again, her eyes fixed on the TV, pleading with him to stay.

Ke Mingye shrugged, thinking to himself that compared to acting cute and clingy in front of me, it might be more convincing to press that tattered umbrella called "Cinderella" against my neck.

If he hadn't seen another side of Bai Zini, who would call him "brother" whether there was a problem or not, he might have actually believed that his sister was simply clinging to him.

Perhaps, Bai Zini is just using him, this Muggle, as a tool to conceal her identity at home.

Thinking about it this way, he really is the ultimate tool among tools, a truly exceptional tool.

"Your older sister will come down and watch with you after she finishes her shower. I'm off now..."

After saying that, Ke Mingye got up from the sofa.

In fact, it wasn't that he didn't have time to watch a movie with them, but rather that he realized his second brother, Ke Xiaomo, had been quietly observing him that evening.

The reason is still unclear, but it seems that they have become suspicious of him.

But why is that? Ke Mingye walked up the stairs, thinking: I shouldn't have given anything away, and I've tried my best to portray the personality that the original owner of this body should have.

Could a ninja read minds and know that I replaced his brother? To make matters more absurd, could this guy be mistaking me for a dragon of calamity...?

Please, open your eyes and look! The dragon you're looking for is sitting right next to you, it's that sixth-grade kid with that smug look on his face, okay?

Ke Mingye was filled with questions. He knew that it would be better for him to stay away from Ke Xiaomo for the time being, and he would have to be careful when he was alone with her.

According to the system, ninjas seem to be able to disappear into the shadows, so he must always be wary of the shadows in the room, as his second brother might be hiding in the shadows secretly observing him.

"It really looks like a ghost..."

Ke Ming felt a chill run down his spine. He silently muttered a complaint to himself before stepping onto the second-floor floor, taking a few steps into his room, and locking the door.

He propped himself up on the back of his neck with one hand, lay down on the bed, glanced at the date on his phone—today was June 18th. He then checked the holiday schedules of several schools.

Ke Yongzhu's elementary school will have to hold classes for three more days before summer vacation begins;

Bai Ziling and Bai Zini will have to attend junior high school for one more day.

Ke Mingye and Bai Qiuwu's high school will have to attend classes for two more days before summer vacation begins;

My second brother's university has already started its summer break, and he even came home early today;

As for his elder brother, he might not be back for another two days. So far, his elder brother, Ke Yinzhi, is the only one whose background Ke Mingye doesn't know.

Anyway, this summer vacation is going to be very lively...

Ke Mingye looked at the ceiling with one or two yellowish spots remaining and thought to himself.

First, he needs to find other players in the same city and secretly establish some contact with them so that they can arrange a time to play dungeons together and improve their level and abilities as soon as possible.

Secondly, you have to make sure your "player" identity isn't exposed at home, otherwise... anyone in the house could chop you up and feed you to the pigs.
