Chapter 160: Outsiders (2)

—

In an unknown building, All for One was sitting on a chair, his legs crossed as he looked at the grumbling girl in front of him, her arms tied behind her with her mouth taped as Kurogiri stood behind her.

"Master, this girl is suspicious. She was eavesdropping when I was talking to you via our special telephones, I only noticed her when she tried to attack me upon hearing that Neji had died in Hisashi’s  hands,” said Kurogiri, his voice not carrying any emotion like always. "What should we do with her?"

All for One turned his gaze at the girl, his expression indifferent at first before he smirked.

"What is Neji to you?" He asked the blonde-haired girl, wearing a schoolgirl outfit. "Kurogiri, remove the tape from her mouth."

Kurogiri did so as the girl yelled immediately.

"Fuck you!"

All for One, shocked for a moment, paused before he gave out a soft chuckle.

"Kurogiri, contact Hisashi. I think he will like this one.”

Hunting for quirks can wait. It's been a while since Neji ate, more than 30 hours precisely.

So Neji was waiting for Kimi to finish cooking food. His head was resting on Nejire's lap, while he lay on a couch, his eyes closed as he watched the system interface.

“But when will you take out our parents? Won’t they suffocate or die of hunger if they keep staying in your pocket dimension?” Nejire asked, not really worried, as she ran her hand through Neji’s hair, his head resting on her lap.

“Time flows differently in there, so no. Actually, time doesn’t flow there at all. They’re frozen in space and time. You really want them to come out and worry?” asked Neji with a shrug, making Nejire shake her head.

“It’s fine then, I guess. Still feels kinda weird without them around though, not that they’re around much anyway.”

“Same for me,” Momo said, sitting beside Nejire on the couch. “I hope all this ends soon so that I can see them again.”

Neji nodded at that.

“Don’t worry too much, I will take them out when we have a safe haven around this place. We first have to hunt some villains, show them the power gap and start a rumour around here so that the small fries avoid us. Some of the big villains will come out, but they will be handled easily.” Neji paused for a moment before sighing. 

“Though I have to first find Rumi and  Ryukyu, you know. I can’t contact any of them because of the blockage of the network. How did they pull this off anyway? Blocking a whole country’s network system, and even maintaining it for over 6 hours.”

That's when Kimi peeked out from the kitchen. "Huh, only Rumi and Ryukyu? What about that vampire girl? You don't remember her, even though this mansion is the place where you first did it?"

The girls turned to her, making her shrug. "Why do you look so shocked?"

"Uh… ahem, anyway forget about her." Neji shook his head, making the two girls sigh before they decided to ignore it. This wasn't the first time anyway. "I am not really that close to her, emotionally. I was just her employer and she was my employee."

Kimi raised an eyebrow. "So you're just gonna let her die wherever she's in right now? Wow, so cold-hearted."

"No. I will find her, she has yet to receive her payment for her last few pieces of information. I wouldn't have sent you to my parents if not for her, so she deserves… a big payment." Neji said, smiling.  "I will decide what to do with her after that payment."
