Superman Termination Manual-Chapter 441 - 232 The Sloth Witch Invades the Alliance (2)_3
"I’m leaving," Xiaohongmao said, her expression returning to calm.
"Go,"
"Senior, I’m seriously leaving,"
"Scram,"
Xiaohongmao got up from the wooden chair upon hearing this and turned to leave when Shi Neian suddenly called out to her, "Xiaohongmao, do you want to come over to my place to hang out later?"
"Ugly rejection, we’re not close," Xiaohongmao said.

Shi Neian raised his hands, fingertips touching, and said languidly, "My Contracted Beast really likes you. It uses my phone every day to sneak peeks at videos of you taken by netizens without you knowing."
"I I I I don’t have any—!" the owl cried out loudly.
"Thank you," Xiaohongmao said to it.
"So, do you want to come to my place? This guy will be really happy," Shi Neian said.
"No, but if Senior Ash is going, then I’ll go. I’m her little follower," Xiaohongmao said, grabbing Ash’s arm and leaning her head on her shoulder.
"We’re not close either, you scram,"
Having said that, Ash shrugged off Xiaohongmao’s hand and head with a light shake of her arm and ignored the drama queen, continuing to record information on the files while asking questions.
"Age?"
"14,"
"And gender?"
"Gender?"
Shi Neian was slightly startled, thinking to himself that there actually was such a question. Could it be there were claims like, "Become a transsexual in Thailand, then become a Magic Girl?"
Ash shrugged her shoulders, staring at her with an indifferent look, "There are precedents of males becoming Magic Girls in history, nothing to be surprised about."
Hearing this, the owl said in a deep voice, "I’ve always wanted to contract with a male Magic Girl. Boasting about having a Magic Boy among the Contracted Beasts could last a long time, but sadly, I haven’t found one."
Ash lowered her head to look at the files, and without lifting her head, she replied coldly, "Shut up, I didn’t ask you."
The owl rolled its eyes, cursing "Goth skirt nutcase" inwardly and obediently closed its mouth.
"My gender is female," Shi Neian said.
Ash wrote down the character "female" on the file, then said, "Then, untransform for a second. We need to confirm your appearance and take a photo for our records."
"Okay,"
Shi Neian responded offhandedly, gripped the Magic Wand lightly, and was then enveloped in a cocoon of light.
The next moment, when the cocoon of light shattered, she had transformed back into the girl wearing a gray hoodie with a hood over her head, her dark circles as heavy as those of a corpse. The stark contrast before and after the transformation surprised both Xiaohongmao and Ash.
Magical Girl Ash tilted her head slightly, her black hair softly draping by her ear.
She paused for a while then opened her mouth to say, "Pay attention to your rest."
Do you have the face to say that to her? Xiaohongmao thought to herself, at home it’s always you who stays up the latest, even Crow Man Dad is ashamed.
"Thank you," Shi Neian said, rubbing her dark circles, "I feel like my dark circles are natural. I actually love sleeping, but they just won’t go away."
Ash summoned the Magic Book, holding it with one hand while quickly flipping through the pages with the other. Amidst the swooshing sounds, she quickly found the corresponding page and pulled out a Magic Card—[Magic Camera].
Then, leisurely, she crushed the card and a classic, vintage camera appeared in her hand. She lifted the camera, aimed at Shi Neian, and with a click, pressed the shutter. The camera then disappeared.
In its place, a holographic image hovered in mid-air.
She dragged the image formed by the convergence of magic power light spots, controlled its size and proportion, and finally, with a gentle wave of her right hand, she tucked it into the bottom of the file record.
Immediately afterward, a photograph of Shi Neian himself appeared in the file.
"Oh... amazing," Shi Neian said with slight surprise.
"Senior is so handsome," Xiaohongmao said in a flat tone, clapping her hands lightly, "Can you take a picture of me and not tuck it into the file?"
"Then where should I tuck it?"
"Tuck it into your heart."
"If you don’t roll out of here now, I’m going to get angry."
Ash’s eyelids twitched slightly as she put down the file on the table, then raised her eyes to look at Shi Neian: "I’ve already sent the information to my teacher, and she’ll process your membership application once she wakes up."
Having said that, she took out her cellphone from her pocket, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Xizi Yue, "To be honest, your timing isn’t great, she might still be sleeping in at this hour."
"Is that so, then I’ll come back in the afternoon," Shi Neian said.
No sooner had he spoken than a rumbling sound suddenly emanated from the air, and the air in one corner of the classroom violently shattered, a huge time-space rift abruptly opened up, and air rushed in reverse.
Following that, amid the loud sound of a whistle, the front of a dark green tram crashed into the classroom, luckily it was only the front, or the entire classroom would have been burst open by the tram.
Seeing this scene, the owl and Shi Neian were both stunned, while the other two in the classroom were unfazed by the spectacle, having grown accustomed to it.
The gothic dress girl slightly raised her eyebrows, turned her face to Xizi Yue in the driver’s seat: "Really? Master, you got up this early today?"
The short-haired girl in a light blue cheongsam descended from the tram, popping chips into her mouth as she spoke, "I just went to Disney with friends and was about to sleep when I saw your message... So, which one is the newbie you mentioned?"
With that, she turned her head towards a stunned Shi Neian, "Is it you?"
Shi Neian was taken aback, "Uh... yes."
"Is the file filled out?"
"Master, I had it filled out before you came, just waiting for you," Magical Girl Ash said impatiently, lifting her slender index and middle fingers to pick up the file from the table. She then attached a layer of magic power to the paper and threw it at Xizi Yue. The magic power-enshrouded file, sharp as a knife, spiraled through the air towards Xizi Yue.
She caught the file expressionlessly with her fingers, not even using magic power, then glanced downward to check the file: "Good, congratulations, Shi Neian, you are now a member of the Alliance."
Shi Neian was taken aback.
"... Is it that simple?"
"That’s what I asked when I joined," Xiaohongmao said.
"It’s that simple," Xizi Yue said, casually putting away the file, then changing the subject, "However... there’s one more thing."
As she said this, she somehow procured a highly technological-looking metal helmet and set it on the conference table.
Seeing it, Xiaohongmao held her breath imperceptibly.
Without a doubt... this contraption was called the "brain imaging helmet."
"Hey, Kobe, what’s this thing?"
Shi Neian asked the owl in his arms in a low voice, looking at the brain imaging helmet.
"I don’t know,"
The owl swallowed hard, thinking that it must find a way to bluff through the brain imaging helmet check, or else it would have to let the Dice Monster play a touching erhu piece as compensation at Shi Neian’s funeral.
"This is a routine membership check, you have to wear this helmet to see if you are some kind of alien species," Xizi Yue said, munching on another chip, then stretching lazily, "No choice... the higher-ups have been pressuring me recently, so I have to take this seriously and go through the motions. I hope you all cooperate, so I can catch less flak, thanks."
