Superman's End Manual

[The Failed Man: Wait, whose name did you just tell my brother?]

At that moment, Cai Bing was chatting with Ke Yinzhi. She noticed the chat bubble in the upper right corner of her vision out of the corner of her eye, so she opened the chat panel with her mind.

[Cut Ice: Did you say "Song Yawen"?]

[The Failed Man: Yeah.]

[Cai Bing: This is the name of an ordinary person, an only child, whose parents have passed away.]

[The Failed Man: Here's the problem: You gave my brother this name, what if he uses his privileges to find out you're not "Song Yawen" at all? He can't let someone like you, whose identity is unclear, go.]

[Cut Ice: You don't need to worry about that.]

[The Failed Man: ?]

[The Failed Man: Sister, even if you get caught, I'll still send it.]

[Cut Ice: You're so annoying.]

[Cai Bing: I'm currently wearing a face mask made to resemble "Song Yawen." On the day I arrived in the Beijing area, I had her kidnapped, and she's currently being held in an abandoned factory. She has no relatives, no one will look for her, and I can use her identity to live in her apartment and work as a customer service representative for her.]

[The Failed Man: So you were wearing a face mask the whole time you were with us?]

[Cut Ice: Dude, do you even know what situation I'm in right now? It's all your fault and Anti-Dog's fault that I'm being chased by Blue Raven!]

[Cai Bing: I'm coming here soon, so I definitely need to take some safety precautions beforehand. I made this face mask more than half a month ago, so I can impersonate her anytime I come to the Beijing area.]

[The defeated man: No wonder.]

[Cai Bing: I'm a hacker myself, so I'm definitely more cautious than you think. But thanks to you, I might have to change my identity again.]

Right now, in a private room on the second floor of the café.

Ke Yinzhi put down her pen, looked away from the menu, and turned to Cai Bing: "I also frequent this coffee shop. How about we exchange contact information?"

Cai Bing took a sip of lemonade, slowly raised her eyes from the glass, and looked directly at him calmly.

"You probably... don't usually ask for girls' contact information, right?" she said.

Are you referring to me?

"Correct."

Ke Yinzhi asked, "I've been busy with my studies and haven't had much contact with women. Did I offend you?"

Ke Mingye watched his older brother put on an acting show again and thought to himself, "Yes, yes, busy with his studies."

"Of course it's offensive. Asking for contact information right away is very impolite, okay?" Cai Bing said expressionlessly. "Especially for someone as difficult as me. At the very least, I'll finish my coffee first... Learn from this next time."

As Ke Yinzhi handed the menu to the waiter, she met Cai Bing's gaze and chuckled twice before asking.

"That's true. Should I apologize to you then?"

Cai Bing rested her chin on her right hand and stared at him calmly for a while.

Are you free tomorrow?

"Yes." Ke Yinzhi had just finished speaking when he remembered that tomorrow was July 4th and he had to stay by Ke Xiaomo's side, so he changed his words and said, "No, it seems like I didn't."

"Really? I was thinking of asking you to go see a movie."

"That's a real shame..." Ke Yinzhi tilted her head. "How about the day after tomorrow? I'll have time then."

"Sure, it depends on your performance." Cai Bing rested her chin on her hand, looked down at her phone, and said casually, "If you perform well, I'll give you my contact information."

"Okay... I have a call to take, please wait a moment."

As she spoke, Ke Yinzhi smiled slightly, took out her ringing cell phone from the pocket of her brown coat, and then got up and walked to the shadowy corner at the entrance of the stairwell.

"Welcome to the 'Black Judge' app, the exclusive app for executive officers of the Control Bureau."

A gentle yet distant female voice came from the phone, as if carrying the smell of disinfectant.

"Song Yawen, please look up this name for me."

Ke Yinzhi leaned against the wall covered with movie posters, typed text in the chat box with one hand, and sent it.

Soon, the other party replied mechanically and methodically: "Song Yawen, an only child; tested positive for ordinary race in two genetic tests in the past year; her parents passed away due to illness; she currently lives alone in an apartment building near the Liluo Bridge in the Beijing metropolitan area, working a customer service job that does not require her to leave home; her biggest hobby is watching movies."

"Retrieve photos from the past two weeks and work records from the past week to check for any unusual behavior."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ke Yinzhi's pupils flashed quickly across a series of photos taken by surveillance cameras.

Sometimes Song Yawen was shopping alone at the supermarket, sometimes she was watching a movie alone at the cinema, and sometimes she was taking a walk by the lake alone. The appearance in the photo basically matched the face he had just seen.

Her work schedule was also displayed on her phone; Song Yawen had almost never missed a day of her customer service job.

“No abnormal behavior was observed. The individual’s daily routine and work efficiency are normal,” the cold female voice said.

Am I being paranoid? I've been too neurotic lately because of work... Ke Yinzhi leaned the back of her head against the wall, yawned, and continued to ask in a muffled voice.

"So, what are the chances that she is a player?"

"The probability of this person being a player is less than 0.5%. Should we request access to the brain imaging helmet?"

"No."

Ke Yinzhi shrugged self-deprecatingly, turned off his phone, stepped out of the shadows at the entrance of the stairwell, and returned to his seat.

He hesitated for half a second, then raised his clear eyes and said slowly, "Ms. Wen, I just received a temporary work notice."

He rested his chin on his hand, took a sip of lemonade, and said, "Looks like I'll be very busy this week. I might not be able to watch a movie the day after tomorrow. Maybe I should just forget about it?"

"You're already regretting it?" Cai Bing looked up, tilting her head to look at him.

"No, I'm telling the truth."

"Did your girlfriend suddenly call you?" Cai Bing continued to ask. "You already have a girlfriend, why are you still fooling around outside? How dare you do this in front of your brother?"

At this moment, Ke Mingye appeared to be playing on his phone, but he could actually hear everything clearly. He felt his head buzzing, as if a hot iron was burning inside him, and he was almost fainting.

He typed on the chat panel, starting to put pressure on the icebreaker.

[The defeated man: Aren't you leaving yet?]

[Cut Ice: What's the rush?]

[Cai Bing: In this situation, I definitely can't just let it go. His behavior before and after was abrupt. If I don't continue to ask, wouldn't it make me seem strange?]

[The Failed Man: Now I know why you were able to hang out with anti-dogs in your past life, you've got a nerve!]

[Cut Ice: To be fair...]

[The Failed Man: What are you trying to say?]

[Cai Bing: Your brother is quite handsome.]

[The Failed Man: No, buddy, if you want to die, just find a river and jump in. Don't drag me down with you, okay?]

"No, I don't have a girlfriend," Ke Yinzhi replied, taking a sip of her coffee.

Cai Bing tilted her head and looked directly into his eyes: "So you simply don't like me?"

"Of course not."

"You change your attitude really fast. You lost interest in me after just one phone call."

Cai Bing rested her chin on her hand, tapped her fingers lightly on the table, and looked him over expressionlessly.

After a long pause, she sighed and said, "13822858, this is my phone number. I've given you all my contact information, but where is yours?"

"All right……"

Left with no other choice, Ke Yinzhi had to give a phone number: "15971241".

Ke Mingye choked on his lemonade. He realized that Ke Yinzhi was giving Ke Xiaomo's phone number.

"Remember to answer my call. See you in a week. Also... forget about that coffee you bought me. I don't like owing people things."

As she spoke, Cai Bing stood up from the table, glancing at Ke Mingye before leaving and uttering a single sentence.

"Your younger brother is quite cute."

"Really... well, actually I think so too."

Ke Yinzhi responded casually, covering his face with his hand to suppress his laughter, then reached out and teasingly ruffled Ke Mingye's hair twice, making it messy.

"What do you mean?" Ke Mingye slapped his hand away and gave him a disdainful look. "What's so funny about other people praising me? Do you understand how popular male high school students are among women? It's the same reason why men always like eighteen-year-old beauties."

"Alright, alright, male high school student."

Ke Yinzhi spoke casually, teasing Cai Bing as he glanced at her departing figure out of the corner of his eye.

At this moment, Cai Bing had already gone down the stairs and left the coffee shop.

Once her footsteps faded away, Ke Mingye dared to say, "Please, this woman has quite the personality, I don't even dare to speak... Bro, you didn't let her control you, did you?"

"Hehe, actually I just gave her Ke Xiaomo's phone number."

"I can tell. You're such a jerk. What if Second Brother falls for you later?"

"Oh, are you talking about our little Mo? The probability of him shaving his head and becoming a monk is probably much higher than the probability of him falling in love..." Ke Yinzhi teased. "Never mind, let's not talk about this anymore, your ice cream is here."

Ke Mingye took the sundae and a small metal spoon from the waiter, and then used the spoon to put the ice cream into his mouth while looking at the chat panel.

[Cut Ice: Did he give his own phone number?]

[The Failed Man: Don't hit my second brother. My second brother is even more formidable; if he suspects you, he'll disappear into the shadows and watch you 24/7.]
