A random NPC | BNHA

Chapter 19

I woke up and grabbed my phone the first thing, checking for messages. Over the week, nothing special really happened, so there's basically nothing to talk about except for the fact that the picnic trinity chat group is starting to be used more frequently and that Kaneko Arisu is still making my life harder, she added in so much salt into my food while I was distracted during the cooking lesson, so when the teacher tried it, she just winced and said it was too salty, which affected my grade a bit but oh well. Kaneko must have felt pretty salty that day.

My phone vibrated in my hands, I realised that the picnic trinity chat group is now used as a meme outlet due to how I accidentally sent a rickroll video to the chat group instead of sending it to my sister once. After that video, Mizuno just sent a Kermit version of the rickroll. Then Shinso just sent the link to the Rick Astley Together Forever music video. He's being smart, that song's less well known, so that means it can bring some surprise to people who have not heard it before, but unfortunately for him, I have heard of the song already.

Throughout my experience in the chat group, I discovered that Shinso seemed to like cats a lot since he sends out cat memes all the time, while Mizuno sends out random memes all the time. I mostly just respond to their stuff with another meme.

The reason why my phone vibrated was because Mizuno was bored and she needed entertainment. I am obviously not the person you would go to for entertainment, but I guess we don't really have a lot of people to go to, so texting each other is the only option. I told her to revise since she mentioned she had a test coming up and she replied with a 'No'. After a few minutes, Shinso replied only to tell her to find something to do, nice advice. I just left the conversation at that to start working out, I realised I got a bit stronger since I was able to do the workouts without taking a lot of breaks.

Ah, it started raining. I was on my way to the supermarket to grab some groceries when it started raining. I see some people using their bags or hands to cover their heads while they ran to places that could protect them from the rain. I personally like it when it rains, so I decided to just walk through the rain to get to the supermarket without any coverings, I got concerned and weirded out glances from the passerby but who cares.

I stepped through the supermarket entrance and went through the aisles to grab the stuff listed in the shopping list my mom gave me. At one point, I needed to grab some canned food placed on the highest shelf and my solution was to step onto the lowest shelf to elevate my height. I used my finger to slowly push the can out bit by bit, only to get interrupted by a guy sporting a white and blue criss cross patterned headband clearing his throat. I hate asking for help, so I just said sorry and continued to push the can out until I was able to grab it. I got back down to the floor level, then realised the dude was still standing there. Oh... he actually wanted to grab a can placed on one of the lower shelves, but couldn't because I was blocking his way, whoops. I stepped away and just apologised to him. He nodded, said it was fine, grabbed his can and left with a poker face that seemed to have never left his face in the few minutes I've seen him. Good to know he didn't seem to mind me being stubborn and stupid, though with that poker face, I can't really guess what he was thinking just now. Oh well, what happened already happened, I can't change it, so I just paid for my stuff and left.

When I returned home, it was time to eat lunch, which was spaghetti cooked by my dad, thanks dad. After I finished eating, I decided to play some gta v role-play since I had some time left.

On the way, I met a guy with the username 'Handyman' while I was on a bus driving multiple people to different locations, albeit trolling them but they went with it, they're good sport.

'Handyman' asked with a noticeable scratchy voice if I could get him to a place, and since I was new to the whole gta franchise, I didn't really know where to go, but I decided to say yes and troll him as well.

I started driving in random directions, and 'Handyman' kept on using crude words to direct me to his wanted place though I ignored him. His words got cruder and cruder as he got madder at me. It was really funny to be honest.

I snorted when someone on the bus started to play 'One direction', it contradicts the bus' philosophy, the bus never goes just one way. 'Handyman' got more annoyed and threatened to leave. He sounded like he wanted to rage quit, so I compelled to his wishes and started driving to the actual location. He calmed down after that, though I could tell he was still quite irritated about the One direction songs playing in the background. It's not my fault though, a player on the bus was playing that and I don't know which one of them did that.

After a few turns, I finally got to the destination and 'Handyman' left to do whatever he wanted to do. He left without saying thanks, rude.

I decided to stop playing and started getting ready for my 'part time job'. I packed up my backpack and left home.

I walked to the corridor's dead end and poked the wall a few times. The secret door opened up after a few tries, yes! I walked down the staircase and went to the indoor gymnasium in the base and was met with Wolf and Rider.

"I have something to tell you." Said Wolf using his finger to beckon me to hurry up and sit in front of him. I did just that and waited.

"We might have to increase your shifts in this part time job since we have an event to attend to a few weeks later and there's no one available to stay."

"What do you mean there's no one to stay?"

"The Japanese branch of the snipers is small, has only at least 10 members and most of the members are unavailable to provide their services during the week the event happens. So you'll be needed to cause a distraction and deal with anything urgent that happens in the city that week."

"Why a distraction and also what event are you guys attending to?"

"The event is basically us attending this formal dinner event in America while investigating there. Due to our recent digging around in the Japanese society at night, the government is kind of rushing to catch our tails."

Oh wait, but didn't Rider mention that the snipers were sponsored by the government?

"And that's where I can come in, right? I'll need to distract them until you guys come back and deal with the government. Though I thought you guys were supposed to be sponsored by the government, what happened to that?"

"Oh we are sponsored by the government, but only a small part of them know about us. Some higher up pro heroes know about us as well."

"Cool. So by distraction, do you mean genuinely causing chaos in the city?"

"Yes, you just need to make sure you can get away with it. Anyways, let's start on your training."

Training basically comprised of me trying to fight Rider but losing every time. By fighting, I meant fist fighting and fake weapon fighting. I guessed it right, I wasn't good at close range fighting or fist fighting. Though I somehow had a good aim as long as I wasn't moving drastically.

A few hours later, I returned home. Apparently, I'll need to go there during Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays starting from next week. I can't believe after joining the snipers for about a week, I already have a mission assigned to me. The question is what kind of distraction do I make since I don't want to get caught and knowing my abilities, I think I would get caught easily if I were to do flashy attacks at night.

Eh, I'll think about it later. I ate dinner, studied, then went to sleep.
