Izuku's POV:

Once at the bar called Shinsou's Tavern. We proceeded to walk in. The moment we entered. All eyes were fixated on Touya and myself. So we sat at the bar. That's when a guy with purple spiked hair approached us. From the looks of it. He hadn't slept very well.

"Sup Hitoshi, you hanging in there?"

"You know the answer, so why ask? After all if you had listened to Sero. Denki would still-"

Hitoshi breaks down in tears while gripping the countertop. So I placed my hands on top of his. He looks up and our eyes lock.

"We're trying to help as much as we can. Please tell us everything you know. I get that it's hard to lose someone,  but right now isn't the time to be fighting. Right now the killer has struck again. "

"I'll only talk to you uhm"

"Izuku, izuku midoriya."

"Hitoshi Shinsou."

I glance over at Touya to leave. So he heads outside and waits.

"The only clue i have to offer is a letter we got from Sero the day after he was locked away. "

He hands me the note to read.

<Dear Shinsou and other members of my fanclub. Do not worry for me. I'm fine. Infact here is where I'll be safe. I wasn't a junky. Someone drugged me before silencing me forever. By some miracle However, I survived. The only thing I can warn you about is this. Stay away from Simp Servants. Somewhere in the band is a killer, hungry for blood.>

"Days later fans started to disappear.  Then my boyfriend Denki Kaminari was killed."

"How many fans went missing?"

"So far there's been about twenty seven,  but only two have been found dead. At every tour site a stalker fan goes missing."

I nervously look back at the window where Touya is smoking a cigarette.

^could it be?^

Hitoshi leans close and whispers in my ear.

"Catch that bastard for us please. You're our only hope."

He slips a knife in my pocket for protection.  So I ordered a drink to calm my nerves before leaving.  Once outside, I made up an excuse to leave. That way I could inform Enji Todoroki about what I've found out. Making sure to keep Hitoshi's name out of it.
