Traitor Hunt

x.

~O~

The ticking of the clock throughout the classes were enough to almost drive Bakugou crazy. Surely, he had made it in time for homeroom but he hadn't yet shared any of his findings with his classmates yet. Thus when the clock strikes eleven, nineteen students found themselves standing in the middle of Ground Beta as per usual for the traitor hunt. One could easily see the serious aura they possessed in contrast to the behaviour they have shown towards the exercise thus far.

Aizawa liked to keep the possibility of them already knowing the truth on the table in case something goes out of hand and boy did he have a feeling that things were only going to snowball from here on out (Todoroki found it suspicious that All Might still came to co-conduct the training with Aizawa today despite his secret lovechild being severely injured and bedridden, he needed to get to the bottom of that soon...)

"Unfortunately, Recovery Girl hasn't yet discharged Midoriya so you all are going to have to continue without him today. I know this puts Team Green to some disadvantage but we'll try to fill that space as we see fit." Aizawa began, "As of the third case, we follow on the traitor's movements and find that the last of his traces are reckoned to be around the 1-B dormitories. The students themselves have reported an uncanny figure lurking around at nights."

Kaminari had to physically restrain himself from blurting out, "That's just Shihai though." A small sacrifice to maintain the serious aura their class currently possessed.

"So, to put it simply, you'll be investigating the 1-B dorms today and interrogating them as well later." All Might finished and there were a thousand different ways they could see this going wrong especially when someone just stabbed to half death yesterday.

At least Bakugou had a specific person to interrogate in mind.

~O~

The 1-B dorms were void of life as all the students were currently busy with their classes. As all nineteen teenagers shuffled into the building, they immediately divided themselves into their assigned teams and begin to look around the place separately. Team Red on the first floor, Team Green on the second, Yellow on the third with Team Blue on the fourth while Team Purple was on the fifth. And if the 1-B dorms were more organized than 1-A's, you didn't need to know.

Arriving at the second floor with the rest of his team, Kirishima pondered, "Um, is it really okay to just snoop around like that? Aren't we invading someone's privacy by looking through their rooms? I don't think that's manly..."

"They looked through ours too plus we're here for just one room, Shitty Hair." Bakugou replied, unfazed as he walked ahead to the said one room they came to investigate.

Second floor, second room. The one parallel to Midoriya's.

The green haired boy was attacked when he was in his room. No one else was there before the incident. Tokoyami was in his own room and Iida came to check up on the green head a good few minutes after the attack. If no one came in and no one went out through his door, then had to be from the balcony.

The distance between two balconies on parallel dorm buildings was great in its own respect but every hero course student would be perfectly able to cross that distance with their quirks or by some other means like a rope for example. Now, the person who housed the dorm room wouldn't be an immediate suspect. After all, your classmates and friends could come and go in your dorm room freely. The teachers were also able to access any room at any time... And then there were the fingerprints of Jurota Shishida on the knife.
