Dear Karma, you forgot some people

28 The hidden body

Aizawa POV

When I came back after the failed attempt to capture the problematic problem child, I did not expect to find a bunch of police cars there. Has something happened in the meantime? The PROBLEM child was gone in the time. What could have happened. For the police to come now. I run over to Nezu.

Me: what happened here?

Nezu: Looks like you're not having any success catching him. That's sad, though. A lot has happened here. After we entered the house, we found blood stains on the carpet that hadn't been cleaned properly and a few holes in the wall as if someone had shot into it. Hound dog was able to find a couple guns. Two guns were stashed in a closet. Those probably hadn't been used in a long time because of the smell. One gunshot didn't smell good, but there was a slight smell coming from it that Hound Dog smelled. There was also a pile of bloody bandages in the trash can. His mother is nowhere to be found. But I must be something bad happened that there are guns, bullet holes, blood, and bloody bandages.

Me: That's why there are several policemen?

Nezu: yes, mainly because of that. This case is getting more and more interesting. It's clear that the spot from the carpet where the blood was, was tried to scrub it without success away. This raises the question of why the police weren't even called.

Me: Do you think we'll somehow manage to find him again? He runs incredibly fast and with ease he escapes.

Nezu: I don't think so, I know it. Nobody can live on the streets forever and nobody can vanish into thin air. So we'll find him. The only question is whether we'll find him alive or dead. But I'm sure he has a lot of survival skills. From now on, however, every single pro hero will have to take a tranquilizer dart with them in case they come across the kid. I have enough contacts that I can use. You now can go in the house and maybe you realize something or see you were probably one who knew him best.

I entered the house there were several police officers gathering evidence. In the backyard I saw Tsukauchi with a police dog sniffing the ground. He stopped at a certain spot and started digging himself. I see that Tsukauchi's mine is very worried.

Me: What kind of police dog is that exactly. There was the bomb dog, the weapon dog, the poison dog and the corpse dog. if I remember correctly.

Tsukauchi: the corpse dog. Nezu ordered him to sniff around in the conservatory. Since the child's mother hasn't been seen for a very long time, and he wanted to clarify a theory.

Another policeman arrives with a shovel. They dig there until they hit something hard and then digs around it. Lifting it out of the ground, they end up with a wooden coffin. Or is it a closet? I couldn't believe my own eyes. When I saw what was inside. A stinking, bug-eaten corpse. I turned my face and held my nose.

Tsukauchi and everyone else took a step back too.

Nezu; So my guess turned to be the truth interesting

Me: Interesting?! That looks like something out of a nightmare.

Nezu: That may be true. But how do you think it was for the child to find his own mother like that. I don't think her being dead was his act. It must have been something or someone keeping him away from telling someone.

Me: Wouldn't it probably be the fear of being taken to an orphanage?

Nezu: That could be. But to bury his own mother in a closet after she was killed because of such a fear is a bit excessive.

Me: You know how children like him are treated

Nezu: With fighting techniques like that, no one would stand up to him. The question of where he got them from still remains.
