Y/N's POV
"Remind me again why we let this extra sit at our table," a boy with spiky blond hair and fierce red eyes glared at you from across the table.
"Bakubro, you can't always be so mean to people around you," Kirishima nudged his shoulder, giving him a playful yet firm reprimand. When you joined the table, most of the group introduced themselves one by one, though not everyone had been as friendly.
Ashido, the girl who invited you, was sitting across from you, and beside her was Jiro, a girl with short purple hair. Kaminari, an energetic guy with a black lightning bolt-shaped streak in his hair, sat next to you. On the other side was Sero, the guy with black hair and an easygoing vibe.
"Yeah, Bakugo, you can't act like that toward our new classmate. He's our friend now," Ashido stood up for you, her voice strong. You smiled at her in gratitude, but the smile faded as Bakugo spoke again.
"I'm not even friends with you idiots, so why should I be kind to this birdbrain?" he scoffed, his eyes flashing with disdain.
"Come on, man. After everything we've been through, you still can't acknowledge us as friends?" Kirishima reminded him, clearly referring to their many battles against villains—events you'd heard about on the news.
The group continued chatting, but your attention drifted. You subtly scanned the cafeteria, looking for your target among the other groups of students. No luck.
"Hey... how many people are in the class?" you asked, turning your focus back to the group at the table.
"Huh? Oh, counting you, we're now 21 students," Sero replied. "Some are sick today, so that's why a few seats were empty."
You nodded in understanding, though inside, your frustration simmered. 'My target must be one of the sick students then. How infuriating.'
This was not part of the plan. You were supposed to gather the necessary information quickly and complete your mission, but now your stay at the school was going to be extended.
BEEP BEEP.
'Speaking of the devil...'
You glanced down at your wrist and checked your watch.
"I noticed your watch earlier in the classroom, but it looks even more impressive up close," Sero commented, leaning in to get a better look.
"Wow, you're rich! Hey, would you like to go out for ice cream with us after school? You're treating, right?" Kaminari asked, his eyes lighting up with excitement.
"Sorry, but I'm lactose intolerant," you said with a small smile before hastily standing up. "Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."
"This guy gets diarrhea just by hearing about dairy products," Kaminari muttered, and Jiro stifled a laugh, covering her mouth with her hand.
You quickly left the cafeteria, heading to a nearby janitor's closet for some privacy. Once inside, you closed the door behind you and stood next to a shelf stacked with cleaning supplies. Holding your watch up, you press the side button.
The watch split into two parts, and a small screen popped up in the centre. You pressed the screen's middle section, but before you could say anything, the stern voice on the other side beat you to it.
"Cratos, I demand an update on your progress."
"Good morning to you too, Madam President," you said with a slight smirk, even though you knew she couldn't see you.
"I did not contact you to engage in small talk. Stop wasting my time and answer my question." Her voice was laced with impatience.
"The suspect is not on school grounds. She's currently ill, according to the information I've gathered," you replied calmly.
