I was watching Eri she was wearing a hospital gown something my mother would surely notice so I looked through my old clothes for something in her size I would have to buy her something for her soon.
So I woke her up she was apparently sleeping very well I didn't want to wake up to something about clouds and unicorns.
I thought it was a bit funny but I needed to create an alibi so I changed her as carefully as I could without lifting her and covered her bandages.
I could only think of one story to cover Eri's adoption I had the papers but my mom was sure to ask why I adopted her.
I was nervous I had just finished dressing her her bandages were not visible even if my mother could see them.
If maybe that would work it would be a better explanation'.
And I did so I left the bandages a little bit visible
And I went downstairs to wait for my mom, she was cooking for when she arrived.
It didn't take too long she complied in that she only came out for a little while she arrived 30 minutes after she started cooking when I saw her I hugged her I didn't want her to see my face as I lied to her it didn't matter if I did something good it was bullshit to lie to her , I could easily cheat and lie for information on the subway network but I couldn't with her I couldn't lie to her not her
Her hug was warm it comforted me even though my mother seemed confused by the sudden embrace she accepted it gladly
"Mom I have to tell you something" I said a little nervously hiding my face
"Oh tell me son you know you don't have to worry about telling me things" she said hugging me tighter it was warm and comfortable
"I when I was coming home one of the caregivers at an orphanage convinced me to adopt a girl" I said trying to sound calm but shit I was nervous it was lying to my mother so she wouldn't worry about what I was really doing
"Oh izuku you shouldn't worry I know you have a hero's heart I would help everyone I can plus it will be nice to have a little one around the house I already want to start dressing her up."
"This one about that mom I must tell you apparently at the orphanage the other kids didn't like her because of her hair and eye color she has some bandages I will take her for some checkups to make sure everything is ok with her these days."
Still in her arms I spoke I felt more repulsed than when I did my first job I wanted to let go but if I hugged her it was so comfortable and safe it was contradictory
"Don't worry son I will help you after all I know you did it for a good reason" she said as she brushed my hair with her hand.
Those words you did it for a good reason it was as if I had taken 10 baths in one moment I felt light.
So I let her go and gave her my smile and went to the kitchen to continue cooking.
She asked me where I was I could only tell her that I was asleep apparently she was in a comfortable place and sleep won her over.
I asked her how it went with Aunt Mitzuki and she said it was fine, just reminiscing about old times.
It was quiet with me cooking and my mom helping even though I told her to rest she wouldn't listen to me.
When we finished cooking I went up to my room Eri was still asleep but she needed to eat.
I approached her and gently woke her up she looked confused as to where she was until she saw me hugging me like a koala bear.
'warm' was what the little girl thought as she hugged izuku
"I see you are a little calmer now, I have prepared food do you want to come downstairs with me?" I said trying to sound calm so as not to scare her.
She just nodded but she didn't jump out of my embrace so I carried her downstairs and my mother saw me with the little girl in my arms and gave me one of her characteristic warm smiles.
I tried to convince Eri to let go but she wouldn't let go so I sat down with her to eat.
"Mom this is Eri the new member of our family".
"Little girl don't be shy eat as much as you want" she said smiling lightly.
Eri just looked at her and then at me.
'two izukus'
I saw her looking at me and smiled at her.
She just looked at the food and slowly tasted it, it was katsudon, the house favorite.
She brought her spoon to her mouth and it was a sugar explosion it was sweet it tasted good.
And she smiled as she began to devour it.
We just laughed lightly my mom because it reminded her of when I first tasted it and me because it was my favorite dish I was glad she liked it.
So the meal passed quickly as Eri and I devoured katsudon while my mom made Eri feel more comfortable with her which was quick it only took one hug from her to make me adore her and not want to let go.
It got to the point where she fell asleep in his arms so I had to leave her on my bed while my mom and I watched movies. It was such an everyday thing but I was glad to be with her and that she accepted that I would adopt her without warning.
When Eri woke up she joined our movie time.
We had dinner together and Eri ate more comfortably and slept with mom that night.
I'll have to change the guest room for her' I thought sitting at my computer checking if the yakusa had any movement.
And it did
They had attacked groups of villains and criminals that were close to them, they just destroyed the bases and turned them upside down, but they didn't steal anything.
They were looking for it so I started to do something with different accounts I started to give misinformation from all sides to everyone I wanted to make it look like the yakusa had recently obtained something that gave them the confidence that they could dominate the underworld.
And boy did it work, it took me a while but already people were talking about how the yakusa thought they were big but they didn't even know what they were doing, some big shots were angry that they had touched their base and that touched their pride, too bad for the yakusa it angered many and accomplished little.
I watched what I had done and guided the information as I wanted to get the yakusa to care more about who they pissed off instead of looking for Eri.
But it was time to get to work apparently someone wanted to know some crimes a hero committed under the table that didn't come to light only had an S as a nickname
S∆ I pay whoever gets information about the hero ment about under the table deals that didn't come to light ∆.
I just started looking for information from the public network to the subway I found many other heroes that had done the same deals for crimes they committed that never came to public light
I was disgusted by them, they had everything on their lists.
When I got it all I got in touch
I∆ a pleasure I am the informant I have information on the hero you are looking for what is the price you will pay for it ∆
∆ 13000 for it ,if it contains proof of his crimes 15000∆
∆bien transfer to this account xxxx at the moment I have half of that amount you will be sent the information ∆.
He didn't answer but to my account the money came in and it was all there so I was confident that no one would cheat him that seemed curious to me.
I simply sent him all the information of his crimes and the names of the victims also the disadvantages of his gift and how to neutralize him strangely knowing his crimes I didn't feel repulsed to put a noose on him
It was as if he deserved it for what he did but I put it aside to search because he wasn't afraid of me conning him
It took me a long time to finally find a name STAIN hero killer.
And when I got it it was easy to know what motivated him apparently he hunted fake heroes as he called it he had a lot of information jobs and it paid well.
A good client I'll have' I said mentally.
So I spent the night at the midoriya house with everyone sleeping peacefully.
