Superman Termination Manual

"Considering these factors, in the end he decided to give up his vigilante identity and join the Superhero Association."

"So essentially, Qing Ya's act of joining the Association was purely out of concern for the reputations of other heroes."

"After all, consider this: if the officially certified heroes can't measure up to mere vigilantes, then the so-called Superhero Association, along with other 'superhero' titles, would lose all credibility."

Hearing this, Ke Mingye thought for a moment, then spoke dismissively, "Interesting, so you think I should follow Qing Ya's path, abandon my vigilante identity, and join the Association?"

"Of course, that's exactly what I mean," Che Zhengchen said, "The more vigilantes there are, the more visible they become, and the more respected they are among the public, the more people will be disappointed with the officials and the laws."

He paused, his tone growing a bit more serious.

"So, if you truly want to help the people, then joining the Association could be a choice."

"It won't be too different from your previous life, except that you'd be acting officially, adopting a more formal method of combating criminals. Also, if we talk about more practical matters, becoming an official superhero could at least bring some policy benefits and convenience for your family."

Hearing this, Ke Mingye remarked sarcastically, "From what you're saying, if the Superhero Association can be influenced by a few capable vigilantes, then it perhaps doesn't serve any great purpose."

"Hehe, Qing Ya initially thought the same,"

Che Zhengchen laughed.

"But later, he felt that people needed something to believe in, a pillar that could allow them to live in peace, and that pillar was the Superhero Association; vigilantes would always just be vigilantes, staying outside the law, running counter to 'safety' and 'stability', no matter how hard they work, they ultimately only bring chaos to this city."

Ke Mingye neither agreed nor disagreed, "You might be right."

He paused, and then suddenly said, "By the way, if I remember correctly, Hui Ge should also be one of the superheroes you've handled, right?"

Upon hearing this, Che Zhengchen fell silent for a full six or seven seconds.

After a while, Che Zhengchen exhaled softly, trying to keep his tone calm, "Yes, that's what I want to talk to you about. I hope to see you at the office tomorrow afternoon."

"That'll be all for now, hanging up."

Having said that, Ke Mingye ended the call.

He then used the "Permanent Magical Girl Transformation Card" from his bag to transform, inserting his spare cell phone into the Magic Book before making the Magic Book disappear to prevent the phone signal from being traced.

After completing all these tasks, he moved away from the abandoned train station and headed toward his home, taking the elevator to the twelfth floor of the duplex apartment building.

Pressing the doorbell, he bowed his head, fidgeting with his phone, waiting for someone inside to open the door.

"Big brother, where have you been?"

Soon, Bai Zini opened the door for him and, looking up from her phone, immediately asked.

"Night running."

Saying this, Ke Mingye took off his sports shoes, put on slippers, and looking at his phone as he walked past her, "Can you not check on me every time I go out, like Mom's teaching you bad habits?"

"Isn't it just because I'm afraid you'll get kidnapped?"

Bai Zini said as she closed the door, hands behind her back, quietly following him, "By the way, that friend of mine... she didn't send you any messages, right?"

"My God, you have friends?"

Hearing this, Bai Zini frowned, about to speak, but Ke Mingye interrupted with a suddenly remembered look, "Oh, You Minglu, huh? She talked to me last night."

Bai Zini was taken aback, hesitating to ask, "What did you talk about?"

"About you."

"What about me?"

"She asked me, 'Do you also boss around like this at home?'"

"And? What did you tell her?"

"I said, 'Your behavior at home is not just bossy; it's downright invincible.'"

Ke Mingye said expressionlessly, quickening his pace, leaving Bai Zini behind.

"Go away."

Bai Zini's face darkened, infuriated, she flung a middle finger at Ke Mingye's retreating figure.

As if expecting it, Ke Mingye responded with a middle finger without turning his head, then climbed up to the second floor.

Walking back to his room, he locked the door, lay half on the bed, feet still on the floor. Ke Mingye sighed in relief, too lazy to wash his face, and simply reached out to turn off the light, placed an arm across his forehead, and sorted through his thoughts.

Che Zhengchen, one of the commanders of the Superhero Association's Huanjing division, his primary task being to oversee the superhero squads.

He has managed many superhero squads, the more famous Grey Pigeon Squad, and the more recent Platinum Wing Squad were both directly under his jurisdiction.

Right now, there are two possibilities around his identity.

The first possibility: he was the first ordinary person controlled by Gastella's bugs after arriving in this city;

The second possibility: he is Gastella.

The second possibility certainly exists because Che Zhengchen isn't superhuman but an ordinary person, under forty-five years of age, all conditions align with those required for a player's possession.

Thus, it was indeed possible he could end up being a player's starting point.

Thinking this, Ke Mingye opened his eyes, took out the mobile phone from beside his pillow, and checked the Superhero Association's related information. After searching for a long time, he found a post from last month related to "Che Zhengchen."
