In America, my cousin, Supergirl Kara...

Early that morning, Li Xiao was awakened by Kara's loud shouting.

I glanced at the time; it was six in the morning.

He rubbed his face and went downstairs. In the living room, Kara, wearing only underwear and a bra, was sitting at the table, hugging her feet and checking herself over and over.

"Oh my God, this is incredible!" Kara held her foot up to her face, picking at each toe with her fingers. "Did Santa's reindeer come in the middle of the night and lick my feet? Look, there's not a single wound!"

As Kara spoke, she stretched her foot toward Li Xiao's face, and Li Xiao quickly stepped back to avoid it.

"Can't you be normal for once? Nobody wants to smell your stinky feet," Li Xiao yawned, sitting down with a hint of exasperation. "And can't you put your clothes on? Aren't you afraid I'll see everything about you all the time?"

"What business is it of yours, you virgin?" Kara rolled her eyes, but still picked up her jeans and pulled them on. "This is my house, I can wear whatever I want, it's none of your business. By the way, you took care of me last night?"

"Okay, you fell asleep after the IV drip was finished." Li Xiao took out his phone and sent a message to his parents. His parents had called yesterday, but he hadn't answered.

"Very good." Kara, her zipper halfway up, suddenly jumped in front of Li Xiao, her face cold, and asked, "What's with the yellowish, sticky stuff on my sheets?"

"What are you talking about?" Li Xiao was completely bewildered. "Isn't that the pus oozing from your foot?"

"I smelled it, it's fishy! You fucking masturbated right in front of my feet!"

Kara shook Li Xiao's shoulders violently, like a mad lynx breathing heavily.

"Are you crazy?!" Li Xiao nearly choked on his saliva, then abruptly turned and broke free. "I shouldn't have bothered with you!"

Li Xiao was furious. He had been kindly taking care of her, but he had been wrongly accused of being a foot-slapping pervert. This was the second time this had happened.

Is there nothing else in her mind besides pornography?

"Haha, you can get red-faced when you're angry? I thought you were a blockhead!" Kara burst into laughter, clutching her stomach and leaning on Li Xiao's shoulders, unable to straighten up. "I love seeing you embarrassed. You little brat, always trying to act mature in front of me, do you think it's cool?"

"Are you done talking? You can let go now." Without waiting for her reply, Li Xiao shook her hand away with an unhappy expression.

"Alright, stop dawdling like a sissy and get your documents and passport ready right now." Kara pulled her head into her yellow crop top and bit her hair tie to tie her ponytail. "I have to go to work in half an hour, and your SSN/Social Security number has to be processed this morning. I don't want those tax-collecting bastards barging into my house again; that would infuriate me, you know?"

"Okay," Li Xiao nodded, quickly went upstairs, and came back down with his backpack on. "Let's go now."

"It's pretty fast," Kara rolled her eyes and got into the car first. Li Xiao followed closely behind and sat in the passenger seat. The pickup truck drove out of the alley in a cloud of black smoke.

"Listen, there are some things I need to make clear to you beforehand," Kara said, turning the steering wheel and glancing sideways at Li Xiao, "so you don't cause trouble at the Social Security Bureau."

"I'm listening," Li Xiao nodded.

Kara took out some chewing gum, popped two into her mouth, and mumbled, "Applying for a Panamanian card is actually quite simple. As long as you bring your passport and entry records, you can basically get it done by filling out a form and taking a photo. If they ask you about your job or income, just say you don't have any. I hope you remember this well, as it will save you unnecessary trouble. Don't get into arguments with people; it won't do you any good."

When dealing with someone, one should know when to be humble. Li Xiao naturally understood this; he only argued with people when he had nothing better to do.

"Okay, get out of the car." Kara pulled the car over to the side of the road and tossed the lollipop stick aside. "I might not be able to pick you up. I have to go to the supermarket right after I finish walking someone's dog this morning. You can take a taxi back then."

After saying that, Kara stepped on the gas, and the pickup truck roared off and quickly disappeared from sight.

Li Xiao turned around, looked at the gray building in front of him, adjusted his suspenders, and pushed open the door to go inside.

There weren't many people in the hall. There were only seven or eight people queuing in the waiting area, and most of them were sitting on chairs waiting for their numbers to be called. Although several windows were open, they all had signs saying "Service Temporarily Closed." Only one window was actually processing business. The cabinet air conditioner was humming, and the air it was blowing out had an unpleasant smell.

Li Xiao walked to the ticket machine, pressed the button, took the slip of paper (b17), glanced at the queue, and chose to sit on the iron chair to wait.

Two Black men were sitting on a bench nearby; one was wearing a hoodie, while the other was rather jarring.

Wearing purple lip gloss and extra-long eyelashes, their hairy thighs were covered in fishnet stockings, and the two were currently embracing and whispering to each other.

With his hearing ability, Li Xiao immediately heard it clearly.

"Honey, I really loved your gloves last time. They felt so good, like they were touching my soul. It was amazing, I almost peed myself!"

"Hehe, I'll put some leaf powder on my hands tonight, I hope you can handle it."

"I'm really looking forward to it. These people are so annoying. Otherwise, I could try it out now and see how fun it would be..."

For the first time, Li Xiao regretted listening to others speak; the indescribable filth felt like a toilet brush stroking his scalp.

Li Xiao put on her headphones and listened to music to cleanse her ears.

Most of the morning had passed when Lisa called to ask if he was free today. Li Xiao had to postpone his fitness plan to the afternoon. The clerk inside seemed increasingly irritable, but his tone remained calm. However, his private complaints were filled with resentment.

"Damn it... these guys who draw salaries without working... all they do is make me do all the work... I really want to quit!"

It seems there are cattle and horses everywhere. Li Xiao shook his head inwardly. There are so many windows, yet only one is open.

Finally, the announcement for number B17 came over the loudspeaker, and Li Xiao put away his phone and walked to the window.

"Hello, these are my documents." Li Xiao opened his backpack and handed over his passport and other items. The bald white man inside loosened his tie, took the documents, coughed twice, apologized, and opened a drawer to look for something.

A moment later, he angrily pushed the drawer in and threw the white bottle in his hand into the trash can.

He then picked up a sign and placed it on the window, saying in a low voice, "I'm really sorry, kid, I probably won't be able to process your business this morning."

"What's wrong?"

"I need to go out and buy some things. If I make it in time, I'll take care of it for you when I get back."

After saying that, the bald, burly man picked up a donut, took a bite, put on his suit, and prepared to leave.

Li Xiao felt somewhat helpless, but didn't say anything as he took the materials and prepared to leave. He glanced up unintentionally and noticed that the person had dark circles under his eyes and the skin inside his collar was faintly red, like marks left from pressing down with his hand for a long time. Recalling the medicine bottle from earlier, he immediately guessed the truth.

Just then, a mechanical voice rang in his mind.

[Child of Krypton, you have arrived at a multi-faceted agency. As a territory under the rule of the Trigon, the fallen elf before you still possesses a conscience and seems to have a chance of being saved.]
