At night, Bai Ke's ho.
The temperature in Huanjing during August and September was highly variable, with a significant difference between its peak and trough: extrely hot during the day but quite cool at dusk.
The noisy sound of the television echoed inside the cozy cabin, occasionally accompanied by the gasps of a girl.
The evening breeze swept into the room, brushing past the strands of hair by their ears. Apart from their mother, who was lying upstairs, and Ke Mingye, who was grappling with Octopus Man on the television, the rest of the Bai siblings and their father were all gathered in front of the TV. The crowd was as full as a morning roll call at military training—it was rare to see so many of them together.
They mostly remained silent while watching TV, as they all knew about Ke Mingye's identity, but had silently agreed to keep it a secret from their parents.
Therefore, they tried to keep their reactions from looking too odd: at most changing their facial expressions occasionally, or showing a hint of worry in their eyes.
However, compared to the others' subtlety, the girl with a high ponytail sitting in the middle of the sofa seed sowhat out of place.
In the quiet living room, she was the only one babbling incessantly from start to finish, not pausing for even a second, constantly reacting dramatically.
Looking at her, she seed almost ready to start stomping her feet in frustration any second.
Bai Zini was slightly raising her eyebrows, motionless as she stared at the TV screen, her pretty pupils reflecting the figure of the blue owl dashing along the wall with Octopus Man in close pursuit.
"Ah... Ah? Ah!"
"Old, old, old, no, Lao Lao Lao Xiao got caught."
"It's over, it's really over now—!"
Seeing the blue owl lose its foothold and get pulled toward Octopus Man by the sucker, Bai Zini covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes widened as she spoke in a fluctuating tone, more dramatically than the female comntator.
Until the next mont, when she saw the blue owl cut off two of Octopus Man's tentacles, she montarily paused, slightly stunned.
The crowd in front of the sofa watched the red and blue figure that fell on the ground on the screen, silently, apparently not expecting him to turn the tables.
Bai Zini first breathed a sigh of relief, then murmured, "Is it real? He actually counterattacked, how did I not know that the blue owl had a move like scissor hands?"
She turned her head to look at the other people on the sofa; it seed they too were unaware that Ke Mingye had this move.
Bai Zini narrowed her eyes, thinking: He really knows how to hide. So, big bro also has this skill. But seriously, who has a superpower as childish as "rock-paper-scissors?" Isn't that a bit too childish?
She had to ntion, a few days ago, she saw a thread online analyzing that the blue owl's superpower was related to "rock-paper-scissors."
Moreover, the author of the thread even deliberately ntioned a point: Superpower users, in the process of developing their powers, are influenced by their personality and life experiences—this theory, proposed by a superpower scholar from the United States, had been certified by multiple authoritative figures and held a certain credibility.
Then, borrowing this scientist's view, the author went on a lengthy analysis of the blue owl's personality, describing him as soone lacking love in real life, wishing to draw attention to himself, sowhat childlike and immature yet sowhat of a perforr, which is why he talked non-stop after putting on the mask, and his superpowers manifested in the form of "rock-paper-scissors."
At that ti, especially after seeing the words "childlike" and "immature," Bai Zini couldn't help but laugh out loud in her bedroom in the middle of the night.
If it weren't for Bai Ziling who was sleeping with her, covering her mouth in ti, both would have been scolded by their mother.
It must be said, typically Bai Zini didn't browse forums—this could be ranked in the top five in her Magic Girl daily rules.
Because the forums discussing superheroes and magic girls were described as "smoky" environnts—just opening a forum and looking around, one would either see sarcastic and mocking posts, or so brainless species engaging in unspeakable discussions.
Initially, she was quite keen on searching for information about herself online.
However, influenced by the general environnt, she had already kicked the habit of browsing forums, a bad habit she got rid of in her second month as Magic Girl Ash.
However, after learning not long ago that Ke Mingye was the blue owl, Comrade Bai Zini picked up the habit again after many years.
It was sumr vacation, and after finishing etings and playing gas every day, her greatest pleasure when she was bored was to open the Huanjing forum and see how others criticized the blue owl.
After a month, she truly enjoyed it.
Browsing the forums, fun!
Up to now, she finally understood the thrill Xiaohongmao felt when she regularly browsed the forums and complained about various Ash fan posts to her; it was the thrill of seeing others discuss gossip about people you know...
When Xiaohongmao becos famous one day in the future, she definitely plans to turn the tables, using the sa tactics on Xiaohongmao that she had used on her.
Unfortunately, Xiaohongmao was still an unknown new Magic Girl with very low discussion rate online, not even comparable to a single hair of the blue owl.
All in all, not browsing forums is just the fifth most important rule in the Magic Girl code. The first rule had been on top ever since it appeared and had beco the gospel of Magic Girl Ash's actions.
