Chapter 129

"Hero?"

Uraraka Shige repeated the two words, then suddenly realized something.

"All Might is already the number one 'hero'... and has become Symbol of Justice."

"All Might will soon have a battle with 'AFO'..."

"So why... why did All Might fight 'AFO'... why did they clash so soon afterward?"

Is it simply because of the 'fate' between 'AFO' and 'OFA'?

Uraraka Shige his heart, but unfortunately he couldn't come up with any conclusions or answers to these questions. He only had a vague guess in his mind.

To confirm this suspicion, Uraraka Shige asked Kaito again.

"That 'hero'... is it All Might?"

However, Kaito did not confirm Uraraka Shige's guess; instead, he looked at Uraraka Shige with a puzzled expression.

"That 'hero'? All Might?"

Subsequently, it seemed that Kaito understood the meaning behind Uraraka Shige's words and rejected the erroneous statement made by Uraraka Shige.

"While All Might is indeed very strong, and it is thanks to All Might's appearance that the 'hero' professions have grown stronger and the side of justice has become more powerful, there is more than one 'hero' who targeted those guys, and All Might was not among them."

Uraraka Shige heard what Kaito said, she was slightly stunned for a moment, because this answer was different from the one she had thought of.

However, Kaito didn't pay much attention to Uraraka Shige's reaction and continued to speak.

"Those 'heroes' somehow obtained evidence that these guys were using 'Quirk' to traffic children's organs, so together with the police, they designated a large portion of these guys as 'enemies'."

Uraraka Shige looked at Kaito again, emerging from her brief daze, and listened quietly without interrupting Kaito's story.

"Then the heroes captured the group of enemies. After that, many more heroes discovered numerous enemies who had previously been on the run among them, and these enemies were also captured by the heroes one by one."

"After that, due to a significant reduction in manpower, and the fact that those heroes would occasionally take away a few 'enemies,' as well as those who were about to become 'enemies' and needed to assist in the investigation."

"Therefore, many of the people who cooperated with the gang in the office building realized that this group of people who trafficked children's organs had been targeted by the 'heroes' and the police. As a result, the criminal gang in that office building naturally encountered obstacles everywhere, and many of the people who had previously cooperated with them broke off their cooperation."

Upon hearing this, Uraraka Shige understood what Kaito meant by the "heroes" targeting the criminal gang in the office building. Just as she was about to say something, Kaito interrupted her, adding another sentence.

"But in the end, all these things are related to All Might. After all, before All Might appeared, 'hero' professions were quite rare, and in some places there were no 'heroes' at all. Unlike now, every year people who admire him become 'heroes,' the number of 'heroes' increases every year, and there are even fewer 'enemies' who actually dare to show their faces on the street now."

It sounds as if Uraraka Shige is worried that All Might might be unhappy because of what he said before, that All Might wasn't among the 'heroes' who dealt with the office building forces, so he deliberately linked this matter to All Might.

Uraraka Shige found this somewhat amusing, but didn't say much. Instead, she thanked Kaito and then prepared to leave to rest.

No Kaito tried to stop them.

After a night, the next morning, Uraraka Shige and went to the office building according to the schedule of the past few days.

The morning's work of serving tea and water seemed no different from the previous days, as if everything the man with the black-rimmed glasses had instructed him to do yesterday was just an illusion. However, as the morning passed and it was time for the lunch break, the man with the black-rimmed glasses suddenly called him back.

After everyone else in the office had left, the man with the black-rimmed glasses took a sip of his slightly cold coffee, then looked at Uraraka Shige and asked him about the task he had given Uraraka Shige the day before, asking if there had been any progress after a night.

The moment the man in the black-rimmed glasses uttered those words, Uraraka Shige felt a chill run down his spine, and couldn't help but feel a surge of relief.

First, the fact that the man in black glasses deliberately waited until everyone else in the large office had left before questioning Uraraka Shige raises questions. Regardless of what this means, Uraraka Shige can deduce from the fact that the man in black glasses asked whether there had been any progress overnight that there were indeed informants within the orphanage organization.

Although Uraraka Shige didn't know who this person acting as an informant was, nor whether the man in black-rimmed glasses was genuinely unaware of what he had asked Kaito the previous evening, or was simply pretending not to know, he remained silent.

But by this Uraraka Shige was at least certain that the black-rimmed glasses had entrusted him with this task with the intention of testing him.

Therefore, Uraraka Shige must respond with great care.

After weighing her options in her mind for a moment, Uraraka Shige told the man in black glasses, partly truthfully and partly falsely, about her choice and the information she had learned from her conversation with Kaito the day before.

This way, he could ensure that he wouldn't suffer any terrible consequences, and he could also use this opportunity to test the black-rimmed glasses, to see how detailed the information the black-rimmed glasses' informant within the orphanage organization was, in order to judge the approximate status of this informant, or whether he was loyal to the black-rimmed glasses.

Uraraka Shige could even use such a test to judge his approximate importance in the mind of this man with black-rimmed glasses. In this way, he could understand in his heart what bottom line his behavior in this office building should follow.

"I see."

However, after hearing Uraraka Shige's words, the man with black-rimmed glasses simply said indifferently and without any change in expression that he already understood. This thwarted Uraraka Shige's thoughts and plans, and left her unable to figure out what the Uraraka Shige with black-rimmed glasses had actually understood.
