Superman's Ending Manual

Near night, the No. 7 Viaduct around Beijing.

The dice weirdo sat on the bridge railing, with his shoulders slightly hunched, and the palms of his hands supporting the bridge railing. His calves swayed slightly, and he hummed to the tune of "London Bridge is falling down."

It raised its empty eyes and silently watched the sunset set from the horizon.

There is a blush among the high-rise buildings, and the glass curtain wall complements the last blush on the horizon.

But in an instant, night enveloped the city. Like a black curtain, the glass curtain wall on the building's surface slowly dimmed, and then the shadow spread to the streets and alleys like a sea wave.

From the noisy voices to the non-stop advertising, everything seemed to be swallowed up by darkness, and the only thing left in my ears was the rumble of the train crossing the track.

On the empty viaduct, it suddenly said: "I always feel a sense of security when watching the night come. I don't quite understand why some people like dusk. Uh, I hate that kind of state of whether to go or not, just like a The old man sat on the toilet and pooped. He couldn't poop out no matter how hard he pooped. In the end, the poop stuck in his butt. "I don't know who he was talking about. Anyway, his tone was very pleasant, as if he was joking with an old friend. With.

The strange thing paused for a moment: "But when night comes, it's like a ten-day constipation that suddenly broke out and blocked the entire sewer. It will make me feel instantly happy. What do you think?"

"Can you please stop using such a disgusting metaphor?"

Black Wukong sat next to it, put the golden cudgel aside, and said angrily.

She paused and lowered her eyes to look at the rows of neon lights slowly lighting up in the city, "But I also like the night."

"Right?"

The strange thing grinned slightly.

"Looking at the dusk sky, I always think of myself, a half-dead person."

Black Wukong looked at the last red light remaining on the horizon and said softly.

"Why?" the strange thing asked her.

"Because watching the sky slowly darken makes me very uneasy. But if the sky was dark from the beginning and stayed dark, maybe I wouldn't be so restless..."

"You know, many cancer patients think this way. That's what I say, but in fact, night and dusk are both gradual things." The strange thing said, "You think it will always be dark, or you think it will be dark all the time. You will feel relieved when you get down. But this is actually wrong. If you hold on, the sky will suddenly light up. "

It paused and looked sideways at Black Wukong: "What I mean is, there is no need to jump to conclusions prematurely and self-righteously feel that one is already a dead person, Miss Sun Wukong. The dusk is worrying, but the night is not. It will take a long time, and the dawn will always come. The world is such a process of light and darkness."

Black Goku was silent for a while, then took off his mask and took a breath of fresh air.

Bai Qiuwu said calmly: "According to what you said, when you did bad things, did you ever think that you would suffer retribution?"

"Are you asking me as a friend or as a vigilante?"

"friend."

"Of course I have thought about it." The weird thing shrugged, "But not all of what I did was bad. Wouldn't the good and bad things be even if they are put together?"

"Is that so..."

Bai Qiuwu thought for a while, and finally asked what happened last night: "Why did you interrupt my brother's game?"

The strange thing said casually: "Because yesterday wasn't Miss Ashes' birthday. I think she would be happy to see her brother go home early instead of fighting with people on TV and being beaten all over and bruised, unable to get up."

Bai Qiuwu was stunned for a moment: "So you showed up there specifically just to let him go home early?"

"No, no, no, I also think it's fun." The strange thing shook his head.

"Heh...I guessed it."

Bai Qiuwu smiled.

"You know me so well, I feel a little offended for some reason."

The strange thing looked at her proud smiling face, raised his hand and scratched his cheek, and said quietly.

"Aren't you essentially a child who lacks love and is naughty? Even if you sometimes do some outrageous things, it's just a child who doesn't get attention and wallows."

"Instead of studying scriptures and becoming a Buddha, instead of punishing evil and eradicating evil, why don't you start becoming a psychologist instead?"

"no?"

The strange thing curled his lips and suddenly asked: "Even if you only have such a short period of time left in your life, can you still distinguish between good and evil?"

"If I can't tell the difference, I won't be who I am."

"Really, if it were me, knowing that I only have one year, then I would most likely make a big fuss, turn the whole world upside down, and have everyone be buried with me, or...at least let them Remember that a person like me has ever lived."

The strange thing scratched the back of its right hand with its left hand. Seeing that Bai Qiuwu was about to speak, it quietly added this sentence: "I know, you think I am doing bad things, but I am just getting rid of the depression and sorrow in my heart. In Wuli It's so pitiful to die alone in a corner where people care about you, isn't it?"

"You know, it's not unreasonable for those people on the Internet to say that you lack love." Bai Qiuwu said with emotion.

"I don't deny that."

"So you really only have one year to live?"

Bai Qiuwu suddenly asked.

"No, no, no, I just thought about it from your perspective and gave an example."

"oh."

The strange thing continued: "If I have the chance, I will do evil for the rest of my life and continue to have fun among generations of superheroes and magical girls."

"I really don't understand you. Sometimes you can say some nonsense that seems to make sense, and sometimes you act like a child."

"It's like someone said, 'Great people are always androgynous.'" The weird thing said, "Some people have many seemingly contradictory qualities that can coexist cleverly, and there are souls with many different qualities in their bodies: Sometimes it’s a stern instructor, sometimes it’s just a kid who wants to be cared for.”

It paused: "And you, sometimes you are a cold-faced vigilante who never says a word in front of the camera while wearing a mask, and sometimes you do some outrageous things."

"Out of line? Like?"

"Like always having a tryst with a supervillain on the viaduct." The weird thing said without thinking.

"Let's not talk about whether you are a super villain or not. You are the one who takes the initiative to find me every time. I have never taken the initiative to find you, so how can there be such a thing as a tryst."

"If you don't accept and don't reject, isn't that just ambiguous?"

Bai Qiuwu rolled his eyes at it, raised his hand to his chin, and thought seriously for a while: "Let me think about it, I should be a poor little girl who was seduced by the super villain Dice Monster."

"So you admit that you are just a little girl in front of me?"

Bai Qiuwu said calmly: "At least not after wearing a mask."

"That's enough."

Bai Qiuwu lifted the hair from his ears, was silent for a while, hugged his legs, and whispered: "So, we are so familiar, are you really not going to reveal your true identity to me?"

"I understand. You pretended to be close to me, but you actually wanted to deceive me about my true identity." The strange thing shrugged, "You are so smart, Miss Sun Wukong. Unfortunately, I am not so slow as to be. Give up, you are There's no way you can make me surrender to you."

"Actually, I don't really want to know your identity."

"Why?"

"I don't know what you look like behind the mask, so I won't be disappointed or hurt." Bai Qiuwu said, "You are fine now, a symbolic comic character, like a character in a dream. That’s why I can let go of my worries and say something sincerely when I contact you.”

She paused, "But...if I treat you as a real person, I will only feel timid and even a little bit disgusted with you."

"So, you don't want to know who I am?"

The strange thing turned its head and stared at her pitifully, with a tone like a drowned puppy.

Its mood is very contradictory. On the one hand, it cannot let Bai Qiuwu know its identity, but on the other hand, it does not want her not to know its identity. This makes it, a mysterious villain, very embarrassing.

"It's very contradictory. I want to... but don't want to."

As she spoke, Bai Qiuwu suddenly turned her Qing Lie eyes to the side. She suddenly stretched out her right arm and gently stroked the strange thing's weird face with her five fingers wrapped in metal gloves.

It's like feeling its presence.

The strange thing allowed her to touch his face, "Maybe one day, I will tell you who I am."

"real?"

"Of course. Rather, when that day comes, there will be no point in hiding it from you."

"Then remember to hurry up before I go crazy." Bai Qiuwu said teasingly, "Otherwise... the monkey in my body will cause trouble in heaven. By then, I will have no chance to know who is under your mask. ”

"OK."

Hearing this, Bai Qiuwu lowered his head and was silent for a moment. He suddenly put on a mask, held the golden cudgel in his right hand, twirled it in mid-air to make a hunting sound, and then put it on the neck of the strange thing.

"Promise me," she said.

The tone sounded like a joke, but it didn't seem like it was.

Hearing this, the strange thing raised its arms in a gesture of surrender.

It whispered: "I promise you: I promise not to let our Miss Sun Wukong die alone without knowing who I am, otherwise how pitiful would she be?"

Bai Qiuwu seemed satisfied. She gently nodded her mouth, lowered her golden cudgel and said, "Actually, I want to thank you. I don't want to see my brother injured, and it's such an important day. If he comes back injured to accompany my sister, If it’s her birthday, I’ll be unhappy too.”

"Then I can kill two birds with one stone?"

"You are really sentimental. You wouldn't talk to my sister like this, would you?"

"No, no, no, you should know about Miss Ashes' violent temper. Every time she sees me, she puts a gun to my head without saying anything." The strange thing paused, "I mean, I I am only so gentle to you...after all, in a real sense, you are my only friend."

Bai Qiuwu was stunned.

"If I believe you, I might as well believe you are Qin Shihuang."

For such a serious person, she rarely used Internet buzzwords, although they were a bit outdated.

"Of course you believe me. If you don't believe me, check your phone." The strange thing spread his hands.

Upon hearing this, Bai Qiuwu took out his cell phone from the pocket of his long coat, glanced at the message content, and smiled angrily.

[Mr. Weird Thing: I am Qin Shihuang, V I 50 helps me unify the world. 】

"Okay, let's end the joking time here, and then let's get down to business." said the weird thing.

"Serious business?"

"That's right. Now that you've come, I can't let you go away empty-handed. This is our trading principle."

The strange thing paused and asked in a mysterious tone: "Do you know about the Witch Church?"

"I've heard of it."

"They are planning to attack your sister."

"Like Xiao Ling and Yong Zhu?"

"No, the nature of this time is different. The purpose of the Witch Church is to turn your sister into a witch and become one of them, not to kill her."

"So, at least my sister is safe?"

"Of course she is safe, but if she becomes a witch, countless people in this world will suffer."

"Why?"

"Because her power will expand to an immeasurable degree after she becomes a witch. If I have to make an estimate of her strength at that time... it would be the electric imp who killed hundreds of criminals in the Eiffel Tower."

"Zeus?" Bai Qiuwu blurted out.

The strange thing nodded, "Yes, it's the golden and fake hero of the Round Table Club who is so hypocritical that it can make people vomit."

"If my sister becomes a witch, will she have the same power as Zeus?"

Bai Qiuwu murmured, with an unbelievable tone.

"This is just a guarantee, and the actual performance may even be better." Strange Thing said faintly, "So... instead of worrying about Bai Zini, you should actually worry more about whether your sister will turn the city upside down after becoming a witch."

Bai Qiuwu calmed down for a while before speaking: "I understand. Although there are still many doubts, you will tell me when you should."

"Do you trust me so much?"

"After all, you have helped me twice. A gentleman judges by deeds, not by heart."

"Okay, Strange Thing is happy to serve you."

Strange Thing said, and suddenly raised a finger, as if he thought of something, "By the way, I have one last request, but Can you please listen to it?"

Bai Qiuwu tilted his head: "What request?"

"Ms. Sun Wukong, can you please help me find other spiritual masters?"

"Why?"

"Because I heard such a rumor that those spiritual masters who disappeared in history did not disappear for no reason, or self-destructed in madness."

Bai Qiuwu hesitated: "Then..."

"Yes, I think there is such a possibility: the strongest spiritual master in each century swallowed all the other spiritual masters of the same period into his stomach, and finally stood out... and became a god."

The strange thing said slowly, and the tone seemed to be stating a fact.

Bai Qiuwu was startled.

The strange thing changed the subject: "Of course, this is just my guess." It shrugged, "But in order to confirm this guess, I need you to help me find other spiritualists, so that I can have more reference samples, what do you think?"

Bai Qiuwu was silent for a moment: "If I have the opportunity to contact other spiritualists."

"That's good."

The strange thing said, stood up from the bridge railing, and slowly leaned to the side, "Then tonight's meeting will end here... Goodbye, Miss Sun Wukong."

As soon as the voice fell, it fell from the viaduct, and its body cracked and heated up as usual, and finally turned into a bunch of fireworks blooming over the sky around Beijing.

Not long ago, the balcony of Bai Ke's house.

Little Red Riding Hood, dressed as Yuriko, raised her cat's eye from the buzzing washing machine and met Bai Wenna's eyes.

"Why are you looking at me? I gave you face?"

Little Red Riding Hood thought to herself expressionlessly.

"It's so dirty, where did it go again?"

Bai Wenna said, picked up the black cat and walked out of the balcony, muttering as she walked towards the bathroom, "Qiu Wu is really something, the cat she raised runs out every day for no reason."

"Mom!"

Bai Zini, who was standing in the entrance hall as punishment, called her.

"What's wrong?" Bai Wenna looked at Bai Zini, who was standing as punishment.

"Let me give it a bath, mom, and I'm free to make up for my crime." Bai Zini thought of a solution in a hurry, "Besides, how can our mother take action against this stinky cat?"

Bai Wenna rejected her proposal: "What kind of tricks are you thinking of? Just stand there quietly."

After that, Bai Wenna carried the black cat and walked towards the bathroom, getting closer and closer to the door.

Little Red Riding Hood sighed silently, and said to another personality in her mind: "Prison Owl, bring the real Yuriko back quickly, or I'm going to die."

Blue Owl said: "Don't worry, we are already at the train station, you find a way to escape, I'll let the real Yuriko replace you."

Dice Monster said: "Oh, I'm chatting with Miss Sun Wukong here, otherwise I'll come to help you, Miss Little Red Riding Hood."

Little Red Riding Hood said: "Why do I feel that the tasks we are performing are not of the same level."

"So you should understand: how difficult Ke Mingye's situation is. After all, he is not like you, who only needs to stick to the magical girl every time he appears."

Blue Owl said lightly.

"You are right, but he doesn't have to dress up as a cat, let alone be picked up by aliens to take a bath."

Little Red Riding Hood's cat face slumped slightly.

"Don't worry, we're on the way." Blue Owl said.

"I'm off work first, keep working hard, both of you." Dice Monster yawned.

Blue Owl said with emotion: "Oh my god, there is an episode where a weird thing gets off work before the two of us, it's fucking hell."

"If you don't come back, I will also get off work, please don't let this alien cockroach man hold me in the bath, otherwise I will just explode, understand?"

Little Red Riding Hood got goose bumps all over her body and tossed in Bowenna's arms.

"Okay, Yuriko and I are at the door. Run away from her arms and come to the corridor." Blue Owl said, "Then hide in the cardboard box and wait until the door is closed before coming out."

"Okay."

As she said that, Little Red Riding Hood raised her cat legs, kicked Bowenna's neck hard, jumped off her, and ran through the entrance to the closed door.

At this moment, Ke Mingye just opened the door with the key. With a "click", the cat dressed as Little Red Riding Hood passed by his feet and went out through the crack of the door.

"Where are you going?"

As Ke Mingye said that, he quickly leaned down and grabbed the real Yuriko hiding behind him, and then took him into the house.

"This stinky cat always runs away every time I catch it to take a bath."

Bai Wenna said as she came over, took the unhappy Yuriko from Ke Mingye's hand, then glanced at him and asked, "Mingye, where have you been again?"

"Playing basketball."

Ke Mingye put his hands in his pockets, wiped his nose and answered, his tone was very natural.

"Pack up and get ready for dinner."

"Okay, mom."

As Ke Mingye said this, he noticed Bai Zini standing against the wall as punishment, so he teased, "No way, no way, no one is standing as punishment?"

"What is that dog?"

Bai Zini asked word by word.

"A partner of justice."

"So I asked you what it is!"

"Lightning, lightning, dog."

Ke Mingye said without turning his head.

Under Bai Zini's resentful eyes, he lowered his head to play with his mobile phone and slowly climbed to the second floor.

At the same time, at the entrance of the corridor outside the house, Little Red Riding Hood, who was hidden in a cardboard box, poked out her cat head and jumped over the guardrail.

She got out of the gap, shuttled and jumped swiftly between tall buildings and alleys, and finally turned back to her original form in an alley that she was not so familiar with.

You Minglu breathed a sigh of relief and adjusted her dress.

After she finished dressing, she sat on the trash can and took a breath, then looked up at the busy street.

"There are too many people here, and self-detonation will attract attention. Let's change places."

She thought to herself and fell from the trash can.

Just as she was about to walk out of the alley and find a hidden place to self-detonate, You Minglu suddenly saw a figure walking towards her.

The visitor wore a black beret, wrapped in a black and purple long skirt, and a pair of bat-like wings slowly grew from her back. She held a black whip in her hand, and a broken gem was embedded on the surface of the handle.

"Schnaian?"

Little Red Riding Hood was slightly stunned, looking at her vigilantly, thinking in her heart.

"And... is it a witch-like Schnaian?"

The Witch of Sloth walked slowly, as if there was only Little Red Riding Hood in her eyes. Her shadow was drawn out by the moonlight.

"It's so hard for me to find you, Magical Girl Little Red Riding Hood."

The witch held her face with both hands, and spoke slowly with a flushed face.

Under the shadow of the beret, her eyes burned with purple-red flames.
