Who knows when the Octopus Man might suddenly turn into a supervillain like his brother had, lurking inside the Superhero Association to stab him in the back. Such a scenario would be too much for Ke Mingye to handle.
After all, he usually played the role of the blue owl himself, and if something were to happen, he'd have to take out his second heart and his older brother's protective amulet necklace— but these were meant to be surprises for the Timekeeper, and it would be a waste to use them on anyone else.
As Ke Mingye thought about this, he stepped into the elevator, ascending amidst the buzzing sound.
Soon, the elevator doors opened on both sides, revealing a girl wearing a light gray linen dress suit, her hair tied in a high ponytail, her face as delicate as a doll's.
"You're back?"
She asked softly, her voice slightly deep.
"Came back early, weren't you watching TV? That weird thing..."
Mid-sentence, Bai Zini had already pulled him out of the elevator.
