Robbery and Dark-Purple Haired Girl

After parking his motorcycle, Renault entered the supermarket and began selecting ingredients for tonight's dinner. As he strolled around, he took out his phone and sent a message to Mikoto, who should have finished school by now, inviting her to come over for dinner and asking her to bring her mother, Misuzu, along.

[Got it! I'll be home soon! But my mom can't make it, she's on a business trip again and won't be back until the day after tomorrow.]

[So you'll be home alone these few days?]

[No, I'm staying at Senpai's place. Without me, that girl Suzushina Yuriko would probably end up eating takeout every day!]

Hmm~ Upon thinking about it, maybe that's true. Apart from the first few days when they moved in, it seems that her relationship with his younger sister has grown closer.

"But it's good to have a good relationship." Renault chuckled and put a box of beef into the shopping cart.

After completing the purchase, he walked out of the supermarket carrying two large bags.

"Ah! My bag! Don't run!"

"..." Renault sighed as he watched a man running ahead on the road, holding a woman's handbag. He turned around, walked back into the supermarket, left his belongings with the cashier, and quickly rushed out, hopping onto his motorcycle.

Twisting the throttle, the motorcycle roared loudly as it sped away.

Leaning forward, Renault continuously twisted the throttle, quickly maneuvering through the curves ahead, gradually catching up to the robber in front.

The running robber suddenly heard the sound of an engine behind him. He turned his head while running and saw a person on a motorcycle chasing after him.

"A Pro Hero, huh? What a troublesome guy!"

Stopping in his tracks, the man waved his hand toward the ground, causing small dust particles to gather and form a dust screen, shrouding the approaching motorcycle.

A Quirk that controls sand or dust particles, huh?

Narrowing his eyes, Renault charged forward without hesitation, raising his left hand and giving a light wave.

*WHOOSH!*

With a soft sound, the dust screen surrounding him was instantly shattered, causing no harm at all.

That dust screen had no offensive power to begin with. The robber's intention was probably to infiltrate those particles into the motorcycle and damage it.

Unfortunately, the robber underestimated his strength. Such a trick was ineffective against him.

After instantly solving the robber's ability, Renault placed his right hand next to the motorcycle's body, causing a compartment to pop open. He took out a small sphere from it, pressed a button, and threw it directly at the criminal.

In mid-air, the small sphere automatically locked onto the target ahead, releasing an electric flash that struck the villain. After a brief paralysis, the sphere expanded, extending a rope that bound the criminal upon impact.

"Done."

Braking and stopping beside the twitching criminal, he picked up the dropped bag and dusted off any dirt that had gotten on it.

"Oh, it's a branded bag, quite girly huh."

As Renault held the bag, he finally realized that the voice from earlier seemed to belong to a girl.

Sure enough, not long after, he heard fast-paced footsteps behind him.

He turned his head and saw a cute girl in a dress with beautiful dark-purple long hair rushing towards him. Behind her were two police officers, who must have arrived to assist after witnessing the robbery.

Unfortunately, these police officers were just like in the movies, always arriving after the situation had already ended.

"Ahh!" The girl ran up to the subdued robber lying on the ground and immediately showed a delighted smile. She looked towards Renault, who was sitting on the motorcycle, and asked, "Excuse me, did you help me catch this criminal?"

"Yep, it was me. Is this your bag? Check if anything is missing," Renault said, looking at the girl's appearance and demeanor. He lightly laughed as he handed over the bag he was holding.

"Thank you so much! It would have been a real trouble if anything was lost. Everything else is not important, but the most crucial thing is that my father's birthday gift, which I bought today, is also in the bag," the girl said as she opened and inspected the bag. She then let out a relieved smile and bowed to him, saying, "I'm truly grateful to you. Thank you very much!"

"It's nothing. I just happened to see it," Renault shook his head and turned to the two officers who had been waiting for a while and wanted to speak. He asked, "Is there something you want to tell me?"

"Yes," one of the officers asked, "Are you a Pro Hero? Although we saw that you didn't use your Quirk just now, it's customary for us to ask."

"I understand." Renault didn't refuse and took out his provisional hero license from his pocket and handed it over, saying, "Although it's not official, I believe it wouldn't have been a problem even if I had used my Quirk just now."

"Provisional hero license?" the officer looked at the license, checked the information on it, and immediately smiled. "So you're a U.A. student. Then there's no problem. Thank you very much for your assistance today."

Although Renault was just a student, a first-grade student at that, these police officers knew that this year's U.A. hero department first-grade students had already taken the provisional hero license exam. Moreover, when they looked at the name on the license, they recognized it. He was currently the leading figure among the U.A. first-grade students, and his attitude couldn't be bad.

"Huh? A U.A. student?" The girl looked at Renault with surprise, covering her mouth. In a lower voice, she said, "So, does that mean you'll be my senpai next year?"

"Hmm?" Although the girl's voice was soft, he heard it and wasn't very surprised. He smiled and asked, "Are you planning to take the U.A. entrance exam next year?"

Realizing that her lower voice muttering had been heard by the other party, the girl immediately straightened her posture and earnestly said, "Yes, Senpai. My family has arranged for me to take the U.A. entrance exam next year. I will definitely work hard!"

A serious girl with a Quirk, it seems?

And her family arranged it? She apparently doesn't know much about U.A., at least she hasn't seen the news about U.A. this year.

Seems like a sheltered young lady?

"Well, you'd better do your best. Getting your bag snatched like today can definitely cost you some points," Renault said with a smile.

The girl's face immediately turned red, and she said defiantly, "Today was an accident. Mainly because I didn't bring my training wooden sword or wear flat shoes, so my movements were restricted. I was also hindered by the opponent's Quirk. Otherwise, I could have dealt with the robber alone!"

"Yes, yes, I understand. So, work hard, future kohai. It's getting late, and I should head back. If we have the chance, let's meet in U.A. next year," Renault waved his hand, put on his helmet, started the motorcycle, and turned it around.

It was just catching a small thief, and he had already shown his provisional hero license. He didn't need to do any further paperwork.

Only after he left did the girl realize, "Ahh! I forgot to introduce myself! That was so rude!"

Pouting, the girl's body faintly emitted a blue-purple electrical light.
