Superman Termination Manual-Chapter 564 - 273 Brother Lets Run Away Together_2
Chapter 564: Chapter 273 “Brother, Let’s Run Away Together”_2 Chapter 564: Chapter 273 “Brother, Let’s Run Away Together”_2 Ke Mingye was stunned, glanced at the screen, and saw that his mom indeed posted a photo of the supermarket in the family group chat.
She also sent her location, asking Bai Qiuwu to help her carry the shopping bags after finishing his tutoring class.
“Really spooky…”
Ke Mingye sighed, contemplating silently, thinking since his mom was in the supermarket, what the heck was that creature with a weird head he just saw?
As he was thinking, Bai Zini suddenly exclaimed next to him: “Ah, second brother actually posted in the family group, I thought he was dead.”
“Second brother? What did he post?”
“Some photos of him hiking with friends, flowers and grass, high mountains and flowing rivers…”
...
“So outdated, does anyone in our family actually like this stuff?” Ke Mingye clicked his tongue, “He might as well have posted it on social media… Old man’s friends are also old, maybe some of them would like these things.”
“Second brother and eldest brother both don’t use social media.” Bai Zini looked at him, “Aren’t you the same?”
Ke Mingye rolled his eyes at her, “You’re one to talk, someone’s social media timeline is still stuck two years ago.”
After saying that, he checked his phone, looking at the last post Bai Zini made on social media two years ago.
There were no words, just a photo.
In the photo, she and her two friends were walking on a deserted crosswalk, their faces squeezed together, with the twilight sun setting over their heads.
Ke Mingye looked at the photo, guessing who these two people were.
They were “Magical Girl Bird Skill” and “Magical Girl Yinyi”, whose real names were Lin Jiaqi and He Yinlu, respectively. The latter were the two magical girls killed by Ghosthand Buddha a few months ago.
According to the news reports, Lin Jiaqi’s “remains” had been cremated, if they could still be called remains.
He Yinlu’s body was never recovered: According to official explanations, He Yinlu’s body was likely torn into many pieces by Ghosthand Buddha and thrown into the smelting furnace of a factory, thereby impossible to recover.
And He Yinlu, was the delicate girl with medium-short hair in Bai Zini’s social media photo.
She was also later known as the “Witch Black Rose”—the first witch to greet Shi Neian after she joined the Witch Church as a witch.

Ke Mingye couldn’t imagine how Bai Zini would feel upon learning He Yinlu was still alive, maybe… her last line of defense would collapse.
“Let’s go, we’ll be late if we don’t.” Ke Mingye put away his phone and said.
“Yeah.”
The two walked along the brightly lit main street, buying a skewer of candied haw from a roadside vendor. The girl walked ahead, turning back with her hands behind her back, gazing at the boy, her hair fluttering under the neon lights.
Amidst the noisy crowd, the girl quietly asked:
“What if one day, I suddenly disappeared.”
“What?”
Ke Mingye couldn’t hear clearly.
She raised her voice slightly: “I said, if one day, I suddenly disappeared.”
“What then?”
“Big brother, would you find me?”
“Why say such things, you’re too old to run away from home, right?”
Bai Zini turned her cheek, walking ahead on her own.
Without looking back, she said: “Sometimes… it’s a bit unclear who I am, only when I’m with you I feel a bit better.”
“I’m not sure either,” Ke Mingye said. “I can’t tell whether I’m Lan Ou, Ke Mingye, or someone else… Are you the same?”
“I am the same as you.”
As she spoke, Bai Zini suddenly lowered her head slightly, stopped, and waited for Ke Mingye to catch up.
On the dimly lit street, their shadows mingled together.
“What’s wrong?” Ke Mingye asked her from the side.
Bai Zini remained silent, grabbed his hand, and ran down the long street. Their figures raced under the lantern-like glow, turning into foamy silhouettes under the night sky.
Ke Mingye watched her back blankly.
They moved further from the street, stepping onto a path along the riverbank. The bustling sounds gradually faded, no more passersby looking their way. The world seemed so empty, it was as if only they existed. Moonlight spread ripples across the lake, intertwining the reflections of the boy and girl, faintly swaying.
The girl ran as hard as she could, as if trying to escape from this noisy world, to catch her breath.
A moment later, just as they were about to reach the end of the riverbank path, her body suddenly covered in a cocoon of light.
Accompanied by the shattering of the cocoon light, a black-haired girl in a Gothic-style gray long dress appeared right in front of Ke Mingye. He slightly widened his eyes, and before she regained her senses, the girl lifted the umbrella upwards, whisking his figure into the sky.
“What the heck is this—?!”
Ke Mingye lifted his wrist, shielding against the wind coming from above.
But the girl in the Gothic dress paid him no mind, just kept flying upwards on her own, magical ripples carelessly spreading from the tip of the umbrella, her skirt fluttering in the evening breeze like agitated bird feathers.
Moments later, she arrived above the brightly lit Ferris wheel, sitting on top of one of the cabins, and let go of Ke Mingye’s hand.
The two sat atop the slowly moving cabin, rising with the Ferris wheel, looking down, it seemed as if they could see the entire cityscape, countless vehicles on the elevated roads forming endless streams of light.
“This is pretty much sneaking in… Comrade Bai Zini.”
Ke Mingye sighed, somewhat irritably, thinking to himself, Bai Zini what are you thinking, is it really worth it all just to not miss a fireworks show?
The Gothic dress girl didn’t speak, just silently folded up the Magic Umbrella, pushed up the sleeve at the handle revealing the magic jewel hidden inside the handle.
