The Sins Of My Son RE:W

As Nezu was forming a plan, he heard Naomasa scream, "What did you say? Did he kill someone again? An old theater? It's a massacre?! Shit! I am on my way!" he stored his phone away and turned to Nezu. "We might have a lead! Would you please come with me?"

Nezu nodded and replied, "I am definitely coming with you! I want to see it with my own eyes!" Nezu's gut feeling was telling him it's going to be a bad idea but he still pressed on and wanted to go.

Both of them exited the office. On their way to Naomasa's car, they saw class 1A on the training ground. Nezu walked up to the teacher duo of Midnight and Aizawa and said, "We have an emergency, which one of you is free to go with us?"

Aizawa sighed and replied, "What's the emergency? I still have to finish paperwork and stuff after I am done with my students. If it isn't that urgent, then you will have to count me out."

"It's alright Aizawa. Do your best." He turned towards Midnight and asked,"What about you, Midnight?"

She nodded and replied, "I have time. Where are we going?"

Nezu closed his eyes and said, "To the crime scene of a hero killer or rather, a copycat of Stain."

Midnight frowned and replied, "Isn't that the job of the police? Why are we working together with them? Don't you know what the relationship between the heroes and the police are like?! All of them are a bunch of bastards who only care about money. They always say that we are stealing their credit when in reality, we save their ass every time!" she said that and stared daggers at Naomasa.

Naomasa awkwardly smiled and said, "I know that our country is corrupted but please... Some policemen genuinely wish to help other people. I am one of them and I need your help."

Seeing that he acted like a normal human being, Midnight changed her attitude and replied, "Alright, sorry for my outburst but I still remember the day when the police accused us of stealing credit for their 'Hard Work'. Just like the Chainsaw Killer incident. It was all over the news and people started doubting heroes from that day!"

Naomasa nodded and said, "Yes, I know about that. That day, I met with Nezu and we worked together ever since. I was really fortunate enough to meet him."

Nezu Ignored their discussion and looked at Izuku. He was thinking whether to take Izuku with him or to go without him.

'I need someone as smart as me to help me. I should just ask him.'

Noticing Nezu's gaze, Izuku waved at him and walked towards them.

"Hey, Nezu! Are you that desperate to see me again? You don't have to be! I am still going to beat you in every game again! I planned on visiting you after our classes ended."

Nezu smiled and replied, "No, it's not that. I might need your help. Do you have time?"

Izuku nodded and said, "Well, as I am a student, I am quite busy right now but yes, I think that my teachers will allow me to leave on your order. What do you need?"

Naomasa frowned. He didn't expect that Nezu would bring a child along.

"Nezu...Why do you want to take that student? This is a serious case. Are you sure he will be useful?"

Izuku grinned and replied, "Much more useful than the corrupted police officers. Whoops...My bad! I didn't know you were one of them! Haha."

Naomasa clenched his teeth and spat out, "I know the current state of police in our country! You don't have to remind me! But, I belong to the group of policemen who genuinely care about Japan! I assure you, that there are still policemen of justice!"

Naomasa was really angry. He knew the current state of police the best. He is a captain and yet he can't do anything about it and now, he met two people who hate the police. His mood worsened.

The government wanted to get rid of Naomasa because he was the leader of the cops who still cared about the country. But they couldn't get rid of him because he closed numerous murder cases and he was a brilliant cop. He was also quite famous and it would be suspicious if they just kicked him out of the job. His quirk "Lie Detector" was also phenomenal in catching criminals.

Therefore, they are waiting for the moment he makes a big mistake so that they could end his career. This puts him under enormous stress every day. If they fired him, he wouldn't be able to find a decent job since his quirk isn't useful for anything else other than interrogation.

Izuku saw that it bothered him so he apologized. "Yeah yeah...whatever...I get it... you are the rightful cop, don't worry I won't bother you about it anymore." He turned towards Nezu and said, "What are we waiting for? Tell me the details!"

All four of them got into the car. Nezu wanted to sit next to Izuku but Midnight immediately took the spot beside him and giggled.

Seeing that Nezu failed, he took off his big boots and sat on Izuku's lap.

Izuku looked at him and smiled. Nezu acted like a cat. He couldn't help but pat his head.

Nezu looked at him in confusion and Izuku just laughed, "I am sorry, I couldn't help it."

Midnight nodded and said, "I know that feeling." She loved cute things.

Nezu shook his head and made himself comfortable on Izuku's lap, "Nevermind, here is the deal. A new hero killer is on the loose and we know nothing about him. He kills their victims in a brutal way which he most likely enjoys. He has already killed ten heroes."

Midnight wanted to talk to Izuku but once Nezu started talking, she didn't want to intrude and just quietly listened in.

Twelve minutes had passed and they finally arrived at the crime scene.

There were tons of people and the policemen were barely holding the crowd.

Reporters and mass media were already at the scene asking policemen about what happened.

"Mr policeman! Can't you just let us in or at least, tell us something about the current situation?! We can't go home empty-handed!"

The policeman ignored them and the reporters were disappointed.

"We need to get a good scoop! There have been too many deaths lately, it's suspicious!"

"I agree...Hm? Isn't that captain Naomasa?! Was he also called? This might be a scoop! Get ready!"

Reporters focused their cameras towards Naomasa and saw that there were others with him.

"Who are those people?" one of them asked.

"Oh! I know! That animal is the principal of U.A. academy and that woman is also a pro hero!"

"Does that mean that the police requested help from the heroes again? That means that something bad happened and the police aren't able to solve it on their own! I want to see another scandal involving both parties!"

One of the female reporters laughed.

"What about the boy? Who is that?"

The female reporter looked at the boy and shook her head. "I have no idea. Probably no one important. Just a random kid."

Izuku and his group entered the old theater and a duo of police officers greeted them.

Naomasa greeted them back. It looked like they were his subordinates.

"Where is the witness?"

"Come with us, Sir." one of the policemen looked at Izuku and said, "Sir, I am warning you. This kid should stay here."

Naomasa shook his head and replied, "Haah...It's fine... He is with us. Just let us in."

While he was driving, Nezu told him that the boy was more intelligent than he was. Naomasa completely trusted everything Nezu said so he didn't complain anymore and accepted Izuku's help.

Hearing Naomasa's words, the duo brought them towards the witness.

It was an old man. He was the owner of the small theater. He looked really scared and kept on mumbling something under his breath.

Naomasa walked up to the man and asked, "Sir, can you help us? We want to find the killer. Do you know anything?"

The owner laughed. Then he began weeping. His face was painted by madness. "I am guilty...I am guilty...Please leave this theater as soon as you can. It's too late for me."

Everyone was confused and didn't know what he was talking about.

"What do you mean by that?"

The owner grinned and replied, "He told me that my son was a greedy hero...So I should die with him...for bringing up such a disgusting pest..." The owner said and pulled down the zipper on his vest, revealing a strange device attached on his chest.

The device itself looked incredibly complicated and even Nezu wasn't sure what it was.

Izuku has never seen that device in his life so he knew it must have been handcrafted. He hesitated for a while but still decided to use his "Observe".

[----------------------------------------------------]

Name: A Fresh Breath Of Vengeance

Information: A handcrafted bomb by the hero killer. The strength of the explosion is about the same as a claymore.

Time till explosion: 0:08 seconds.

[----------------------------------------------------]

"Get out of the room! Quickly! It's a bomb!" Izuku screamed. He grabbed Midnight's wrist and threw her towards the door. Naomasa reacted quickly. He picked up Nezu and sprinted towards the exit. Naomasa's colleagues prepared their shields for impact.

"Get out of there, young man!"

"Damn it old man! Give me the bomb!" Izuku shouted and tried to pry open the device but to no avail. He couldn't rip it out.

The old man resigned in defeat. "It's over...My child's sins are repaid..."

"Tch!"

Izuku gave up on tearing the device out of the old man and desperately touched the bomb to store it away into his inventory. Unfortunately, a notification popped up.

[----------------------------------------------------]

! Error !

Cannot store a living object!

[----------------------------------------------------]

"What the fuck!?" A momentary shock woke Izuku up as he found out what was the cause.

'It's the old man's fault!'

Izuku forgot that the bomb was rooted with wires around the old man and as a result, he wasn't able to store it away.

"I am so sorry for my son's deed...I shall repent starting now!" the old man cackled and started weeping again.

"Shit!" Izuku cursed.

The device opened up and revealed a complex mechanism burning inside of it.

*BOOM*

The bomb ignited in a fiery ball of yellow flame. Izuku managed to block the blast with Blackie but even that didn't stop the bomb from tearing him apart. The shockwave destroyed all windows in the room and even people on the street could feel the shock in their bones.

The noise had reverberated throughout the busy street as efficiently as a thunderclap. All passersby stopped and warily looked towards the place of the explosion.

"Izuku!" The explosion was so loud, some people lost the ability to hear anything and their ears started bleeding. This however, didn't stop Midnight from rushing inside of the room.

Her ears were still ringing, but she ignored it and looked around in desperation, trying to find him.

'Please...Not like this...' She wiped away the stream of tears and resumed her search.

The room was a complete mess, the only thing that remained were giant chunks of debris and Izuku was nowhere in sight.

'He was...caught right in the blast...'
