Point for Point

"Hey, have you really seen Xiaojie?" Tsukauchi Inspector Tsukachi ordered his officers to bring him over, Kyoka Makoto looked at Jilan Jiyu with some suspicion. "You're not just here to tease me because you think I'm easy to fool, are you?"

"Whether I lied to you or not, you'll know when he comes out," Jilan Jiyu said slowly. "Of course, that's assuming he didn't give me the wrong name."

"Zhen, if Diduo really helped Jilan, wouldn't that be a win-win situation?" All Might deliberately brought up a topic, "By the way, why did your brother become a member of the League of Villains?"

"Tch." Kyoka Makoto seemed disdainful of All Might, but seeing that Jilan Jiyu also looked interested, he still answered his question, "Xiaojie used to be our band's guitarist and lead singer. He's a bit sensitive. Once, after a performance, he had a fight with me over something, stormed out, and never came back. Our band was practically abandoned after losing an important member. I kept trying to persuade him, but he was incredibly stubborn, spending all his time hanging out with a bunch of shady friends..."

"Aren't you just a bunch of scoundrels...?"

Kyoka Makoto ignored Sancha's mutterings and continued, "Just two days ago when I went to look for him again, he was no longer there. I asked some people who lived nearby, and they said he went to an underground bar and never came back... I only rushed over yesterday when I saw his name on the list of detainees in the news."

Inspector Tsukauchi sat in his chair, took a sip of tea, and sighed, "Kyoka- kun, with your reputation and influence in the underworld, you must know about this operation calling for the killing of All Might, right? You used to be a Pro Hero, and now that criminals are lurking right in front of you, you won't even arrest them..."

"Yes, I know about this." Kyoka Makoto nodded frankly, then said disdainfully, "There are plenty of people who want to kill All Might. Do I have to report to you one by one? If your police force is going to deal with everyone who wants to harm All Might, then go arrest Endeavor, who's ranked number two. He's always shouting that he wants to kill All Might and be number one himself."

Although he didn't say anything insulting, Kyoka Makoto's words revealed his disdain for the police and Pro Hero. While Inspector Tsukauchi and All Might didn't react, it made the junior officers around them restless.

"Kyoka Makoto! You're in the detention center now. With your attitude, we could easily keep you locked up for a day or two!" Officer Sancha, a man with a strong sense of justice, couldn't tolerate Kyoka Makoto's insult to his idol, Pro Hero. He slammed his fist on the table and said coldly, "Don't think you're innocent. Do you really think we don't know how many thugs are in your underground concerts? We, the police, just don't want to get involved, not that we can't!"

Kyoka Makoto was stunned for a moment, then looked at Officer Sancha carefully for a few moments. When Sancha saw his gaze, he straightened his back and looked like he was taking the lead.

"Haha!" Kyoka Makoto suddenly burst out laughing, wiping away tears of joy as he said, "Inspector Tsukauchi, I never expected your police station to have such a righteous person. It really surprises me... Should I tell him all the dirty things your police have done...?"

"My Zhen! That's enough!" All Might suddenly interrupted him angrily. "My students are still here. You've said enough!"

"Kyoka Makoto, you can belittle yourself; after all, sometimes even you can't see yourself clearly," Inspector Tsukauchi suddenly spoke calmly, "But that's no reason for you to trample on other people's beliefs. You know better than I how precious beliefs are."

"..." Kyoka Makoto fell silent at Inspector Tsukauchi's veiled words, then suddenly looked up at Officer Sancha: "Hey, young officer, I admit I misspoke this time, but... how long can you hold out from falling into the abyss?"

Although Officer Sancha didn't understand what he meant, he straightened his back and solemnly declared, "Like All Might, I will fight against evil forever!"

All Might gave a subtle smile, Tsukauchi Inspector All Might seemed used to it and calmly took a sip of tea. Jilan Jiyu was momentarily lost in thought, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up.

What an admirable golden will... The anxiety that Jilan Jiyu felt because of Yoshikage Kira gradually disappeared.

Diduo Chengjie was brought to this room. Since All Might and the others were there, and under the watchful gaze of Kyoka Makoto, the police simply removed the handcuffs from his hands to avoid incurring their wrath.

"Brother Zhen? It really is you?" Diduo Chengjie looked at Kyoka Makoto excitedly, then turned his gaze to Jilan Jiyu, and exclaimed in surprise, "You're that student from U.A. High School.!"

"Let's go down the Xiaojie."

Kyoka Makoto stood up abruptly, grabbed Diduo Chengjie's hand, and prepared to take him away.

However, Diduo Chengjie stood still with his head down, and Inspector Tsukauchi's voice came over. "Kyoka- kun, his charges haven't been determined yet, is now the time to let him go?"

Kyoka Makoto frowned and looked at Tsukauchi: "Since Xiaojie was able to recognize this student, doesn't that mean Xiaojie didn't really harm U.A. High School.? He just entered a restricted area. According to the law, it seems like you can be arrested even if you don't enter U.A. High School.?"

"Kyoka- kun, you should understand that this is just sophistry." After Kyoka Makoto 'Tsukauchi "tsk," Inspector Tsukaouchi said slowly, "We haven't had time to interrogate Diduo yet. We need to compare his testimony with Jilan's testimony to confirm their accuracy before we can convict him."

If Xiaojie were to speak, he would surely reveal something incredible... Kyoka Makoto's initial joy at seeing Diduo subsided, and he calmly asked, "I think you must have interrogated the others, right? What were their testimonies?"

Inspector Tsukauchi answered him frankly, "Aside from a few leaders, the people who invaded U.A. High School. were just some petty thugs from the Seaside Park." He glanced at All Might and continued, "Their place of survival was destroyed by All Might, which is why they were incited by the League of Villains to want to kill All Might."

"You should also know that Xiaojie couldn't be the mastermind, so how is the information you get from him any different from what other petty thugs get?" Kyoka Makoto Tangzhen stood his ground, speaking on behalf of Diduo Chengjie, "His background is clean. Every piece of his resume is on file locally. He's completely different from those unemployed vagrants. If the others are deliberately seeking revenge, then he's been completely deceived. He's just an innocent victim who got dragged into this."

Diduo Chengjie suddenly said in a low voice, "Brother Zhen, you don't have to do this." He raised his head and pulled his hand away from hers. "I know I made a mistake this time, and there's no way you can take me out. You've protected me too many times; this time it's time for me to be punished..."

"Shut up!" Kyoka Makoto turned around abruptly, punched him, and yelled at the man lying on the ground, "Don't give me that pessimistic talk! I could protect you before, and I can still do it now! Stop acting all dejected. You just need to stay behind me!"

"Brother Zhen..."

No one intervened in the face of this unexpected situation; they simply watched in silence.

Kyoka Makoto said to Inspector Tsukauchi in a deep voice, "So... can I take Xiaojie with me now?"

"Jilan- kun... what do you think?" Tsukauchi tossed the choice to Jilan Jiyu, "Do you think that the help he gave you during the intrusion incident can offset his crime?"
