Shinobu's legacy

Chapter 27

Choko's POV

He's gone. Shigaraki slipped right through my fingers. I couldn't do a thing, not with Midoriya's life in danger.. no even if he wasn't there I couldn't do a thing with the ability to kill me before I could inflict any significant damage to him.

I accomplished nothing and Midoriya found out about the Demon slayer corpse or at least he's being told about it right now.

I'm now looking into the interrogation room at the police station as Detective Tsukauchi tells Midoriya almost everything, that demons exist, my occupation as a slayer, that Tsutako I were sent undercover to eliminate a demon that was newly discovered to be working for the league, what happened to me at the USJ, Principal Nezu and All Might are the only faculty members who know I'm undercover and of course that he must tell no one anyone of this under law.

His expression throughout the entire time is hard to read. Surprised obviously but expressions that I can't quite uncover the feeling behind.

"Alright we have a police car waiting for you outside, thanks for your cooperation." Hearing that I decided to take my leave quickly slipping out the back door.

He probably doesn't want to see me.

3rd POV

'I swear trouble follows that girl like a magnet!' Tsutako worriedly fumbles with her hair quickly going to the police station upon getting a phone call from the police station telling her about what happened to Choko while she was at the mall.

Upon arriving she found three people outside, All Might detective Tsukauchi and Midoriya, who she's aware is One for All's successor.

Tsutako's crow Enyo told her that Midoriya had accidentally found out about the corpse during the predicament. But looking around she saw no sign of Choko.

"Hey, All Might, where's my trouble attracting sister?" She walked up to the three, accidentally interrupting their conversation.

All Might turns, smiling slightly. "Ah Mrs. Tomioka, the well other Tomioka seems to have left."

"Of course she did." Tsutako sighed, shaking her head. 'I swear that girl..'

"Um Tomioka, do you know where she went? I'd like to talk to her."

Interrupting her not so nice thoughts, Midoriya's request made her raise a brow. "You're not gonna yell at her right?"

"Of course not! None of this was any of her fault." He said immediately.

Knowing her sister, Tsutako knew were she would most likely be. Tsutako turned to the adults, nodding her head up a bit. "All Might, Tsukauchi do you mind?"

"Of course." Nodding Tsukauchi and All Might went back inside the police station.

Seeing the door close, Tsutako looked Midoriya right in the eye "What was her mood the last time you saw her?"

Surprised by the question, Midoriya hesitated "Can you not see through her little facade of smiles? I'm sure at the mall you saw what was behind it."

Midoriya furrowed his brow at Tomioka's sister's question.

"Catching Murderers and putting them in their place, now that sounds fun." He recalls the time when Tomioka responded to the question on why she wants to become a hero.

Yes, he now knows that was only a cover but something she was referring to in the sentence was real. Even though she was smiling, her eyes felt..sad and something else he couldn't put his finger on.
