"Is it that dice-obsessed guy causing trouble again?"

"No, it's a cyborg named 'Lestat.' Your favorite Dice Monster is just here for fun."

As she spoke, Ke Yinzhi yawned, "The one who beat Leicester seemed to be a rookie vigilante who said his name was 'Blue Owl'."

The two sat in front of the TV and watched the live recording. The last scene of the recording showed the blue owl limping into the alley and disappearing into the world of neon lights.

"This vigilante's uniform looks just like the Blue Raven's; in fact, it seems to have been deliberately made to imitate the Blue Raven."

Ke Xiaomo paused for a moment, then added, "The names are similar too, like Blue Raven and Blue Owl, the format is almost identical."

“A follower of the Blue Raven? That’s rare.” Ke Yinzhi smiled. “I remember a few years ago, there was a period when quite a few Muggles imitated the Blue Raven, using baseball bats to fight criminals. In the end, the Blue Raven himself sent them to prison. Since then, I have never seen anyone dare to imitate him.”

"That's why the Blue Raven has such a bad reputation, isn't it?"

Ke Xiaomo sighed expressionlessly.

“No,” Ke Yinzhi shook his head, “In Qingya’s eyes, those people are just idiots who put on a bodysuit and try to pretend to be superheroes, not his followers… Does that make you understand him a little better?”

"I don't really understand why you think so highly of Qingya. I feel like my opinion of him has been subtly influenced by you since I was a child."

"So... he saved me once when I was very young."

"Huh?" Ke Xiaomo was taken aback and turned to look at Ke Yinzhi. "Why haven't I heard you mention this before?"

"Because there's not much to say."

Are you kidding me?

Ke Xiaomo stared at his profile and spoke expressionlessly.

Ke Yinzhi sighed and slowly said, "Back then, an escaped superhuman criminal infiltrated our middle school. After being discovered by the police, he kidnapped our class and threatened the police to retreat by offering our lives as leverage. I remember it very clearly; there was a robber who held a gun to my head."

He paused, then smirked: "Then, just as the police were leaving the campus, a huge crow suddenly swooped down from the sky. You can probably guess what happened after that; there's nothing more to say."

Ke Xiaomo remained silent for a while after hearing this.

"No wonder you respect him so much; he saved your life," he said.

"No, no, no, it's the same even if that didn't happen. I said... he's very interesting."

Ke Xiaomo shrugged: "Forget it, let's not talk about him. Let's talk about this dice weirdo first. It's like he's someone you have to mess with every single person he meets?"

"Maybe it's because... I lack love."

Ke Yinzhi smiled slightly and teased, taking a sip of Wanglaoji herbal tea.

Ke Xiaomo pondered for a moment: "I can only say that I really can't figure out this person's behavior logic. If it's really just because of a lack of love, then that would be great."

"I've seen plenty of madmen with illogical behavior. Among all sorts of criminals, I can only say that you should get used to it. You have a long road ahead of you."

As she spoke, Ke Yinzhi suddenly turned her head and glanced at the entrance hall out of the corner of her eye.

The next moment, the electronic door in the entryway opened, and Ke Mingye, covered in sweat, pushed the door open and walked in, bending down to take off his shoes and put on slippers.

"What are you going for?"

Ke Yinzhi withdrew her gaze from him and asked casually.

"Go for a night run, what else could you do?"

As he spoke, Ke Mingye limped into the living room, passed by the sofa, and took a bottle of sports drink from the refrigerator.

"What happened to your foot?"

Ke Xiaomo realized something was wrong, turned her head to look at him, and asked.

"I tripped and fell while running, scraped my skin a little, what else can I do?"

Ke Mingye spoke casually, taking a sip of sports drink, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

Believe it or not... he actually went for a run.

While he was putting on a show with the strange creature and the blue owl in the Rainbow Commercial District, he also made sure to run back and forth in the abandoned train station, quickly completing his daily task—unfortunately, he only got 500 shop coins from the roulette wheel, a thankless task.

But we shouldn't be grateful for a simple "thank you for your patronage," nor should we complain so much.

"Did you fall?"

Ke Xiaomo muttered to herself, her brows furrowing slightly, and inexplicably thought of the superhero "Blue Owl" who had limped away from the scene on TV earlier.

"Akenye..."

He was about to speak to Ke Yinzhi, who was watching TV beside him, when Ke Mingye interrupted him.

After taking a big gulp of his drink, Ke Mingye screwed the cap back on and asked, "So what were you guys doing just now? So I was the only one being ostracized?"

"Well..."

As she spoke, Ke Yinzhi recalled the scene of the meeting just now and tilted her head helplessly.

Twenty minutes ago, in Ke Yongzhu's room on the second floor of Bai Ke's house.

“It’s your turn now. Where were you then?” Bai Zini asked.

Ke Yinzhi stood behind the door, playing with his phone in one hand and with the other behind his back, and slowly said, "When it happened, your second brother and I were at the Gibran Bookstore. We had just stepped out when we saw this little brat being beaten up by a ninja and turned into a dragon... We were so shocked that we couldn't speak."

As he spoke, he glanced up at Ke Yongzhu, who was curled up in a corner of the bed with her knees drawn up to her chest, then looked back at his phone.

Ke Yongzhu was wearing a set of pajamas. She just looked down at the panda doll on the bed and remained silent.

Bai Zini sat on the ground with her knees bent, frowned and said to Ke Yinzhi, "And then, what did you guys do?"

Ke Yinzhi said, "What else can we do? We've been captured by the ninjas."

Ke Xiaomo said, "We resisted, but we couldn't beat them."

The two of them spoke in unison, their tone quite innocent.

Bai Qiuwu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Then you two should be fine..."

Ke Xiaomo interrupted her: "It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."

"Are you all stupid? You know they're ninjas, why are you still resisting?" Bai Zini said irritably.

Bai Ziling sat on the bed and silently nodded in agreement.

"Anyway, let's not talk about that for now." Ke Yinzhi shrugged. "We must keep the fact that my little brother is a dragon a strict secret, both to Dad and Mom, understand?"

“Received.” Bai Zini nodded.

“Mm,” Bai Ziling said.

“I understand.” Bai Qiuwu pondered, “They might indeed not be able to accept this.”

"So let me ask one last question: besides Yongzhu, is there anyone else in the family hiding any secrets?" Ke Xiaomo looked around at everyone and said calmly, "We are family. We shouldn't hide problems; we should solve them together."

"Anyway, I'm just an ordinary person, I won't turn into a dragon." Bai Zini said with a snort, "Even if I could turn into a dragon, I wouldn't hide it from my family for so many years like someone did."

Bai Qiuwu said, "I am just an ordinary person."

Bai Ziling said, "Me too."

Ke Yongzhu lowered her head even further, her ears turned slightly red, and her expression showed a hint of disappointment.

Seeing this, Ke Xiaomo remained silent for two seconds, then turned to look at Ke Yinzhi, who was looking down at her phone, and asked, "And what about you?"

"I'm a normal person too."

Ke Yinzhi spoke casually, raising his idle left hand without looking up, as if he were a primary school student answering a question.

Upon hearing this, Bai Zini turned her head and glared at Ke Yongzhu on the bed: "Fine, fine, then this wretched elementary school student is the only one hiding things from us. Traitor!"

Bai Qiuwu glanced at her helplessly, thinking to herself, "How dare you, a magical girl, say such a thing? You're just being the one to accuse me first..."

"Sorry……"

Ke Yongzhu turned her face away and whispered.

Looking at his expression, Bai Zini grew angrier and angrier. She thought to herself, "I didn't even know that dragon was you back then. I almost used Cinderella to shoot you to death. Unbelievable!"

So he said aggressively, "Sorry my foot! You're punished by having to run errands for the next week, buying drinks at the supermarket downstairs!"

Bai Ziling nodded slightly, indicating her agreement. Her pale white hair swayed gently.

"Row."

As Ke Yongzhu spoke, she buried her head in her knees.

Immediately afterwards, the room fell silent for a few seconds, with the only sound being the tapping of Ke Yinzhi's fingers on the screen.

Bai Ziling lowered her eyes, remained silent for a while, and then suddenly said, "My brother... might not have done it on purpose."

Ke Yongzhu paused for a moment, then suddenly twitched her nose and continued to bury her head in her knees without saying a word.

"Stop defending him, Xiaoling, I think he did it on purpose!" Bai Zini said angrily.

Ke Xiaomo sighed: "Then let's leave it at that for now. Remember to keep it a secret. Whoever breaks the rules will be a errand boy for life, and no complaints allowed, understand?"

Everyone in the room nodded except for Ke Yongzhu.

"I'm going out for some fresh air. You can continue your conversation if you have anything else to say."

Ke Yinzhi spoke casually, putting his phone into the pocket of his black coat, opening the door and closing it behind him. Then he leaned against the stair railing, head bowed, and let out a soft sigh.

This world is truly absurd—dragons, demigods, ninjas… Could this family possibly cause any more trouble? He smirked self-deprecatingly as he thought to himself.
