Faking It (KamiDeku)

Chapter 23

"What'd they find?" Izuku asked in excitement to have helped find a possible lead.

"Mics in class 3-B." Kaminari answered, putting his phone back into his pocket.

Izuku nodded in understanding, resting a hand under his chin while he got lost in his own thoughts. "So that would make the most sense if the traitor wasn't in 3-B, because why would they waste the time to put mics in there if they were already in there? It would make more sense to be in a different class instead of just waste resources like that. That rules out like twenty people, right?" He asked, looking up at his boyfriend who was just staring at him in silent amazement.

"Damn, I should have had you helping me earlier." Kaminari muttered more to himself.

Izuku nervously scratched the back of his neck. "Uh yeah, sure, but I hate to say this... the most logical class for the traitor to be hiding out in is ours."

Kaminari chocked back his shock at the accusation. He had been so sure their class was in the clear, which is why he was okay with tell them all about himself. If he had miss calculated... well he was in a lot of trouble.

"Why do you say that?" He asked. Maybe he could shut down the logic.

"Well, if you're gonna plant mics in a classroom that you aren't in to gather information, you'd pick ours, but they didn't. They picked 3-B, which means they have to have access to our class somehow." Izuku explained his reasoning and watched as Kaminari's face fell.

"Bunny, we are so fucked if you're right." He said lowly.

Izuku cringed at how defeated he sounded. "I know." He whispered.

"So you're saying that it's one of us?" Yaoyorozu asked in shock.

Kaminari and Izuku had done to the pros with their findings, and they all agreed it would be beneficial for the whole class to know, even though it would alert the traitor. The insight they could gain from the entire class being on edge could be worth it, not to mention the traitor could get so panicked they slip up.

They were all in the living room of the dorm building, Aizawa also being present. He wanted to watch how each and every student reacted to the news.

"You've got to be kidding, right?" Sero asked, not buying the fact one of his classmates, one of his friends, could be a traitor.

"Nope. With the new evidence we found, class 3-A is the most logical place to begin looking." Kaminari said

"Who do you think it is?" Todoroki asked suspiciously, knowing he had to be high on the suspect list by this point.

"Do you really want to know that answer?" Kaminari shot back. He still didn't think it was Todoroki, but it wouldn't hurt to scare him a little bit.

"Yes, we all want to know that answer." Mina said desperately. She trusted Kaminari and Izuku's judgement by this point, and she wanted to make sure her friends were in the clear. Well and herself, but she obviously knew if she was the traitor of not.

"Just tell them. They'll find out eventually." Izuku said quietly to Kaminari.

Heaving a sigh that expressed just how taxing it was for him to suspect his friends, Kaminari listened the suspects off. "Iida and Uraraka are low on the list, considering how well Izuku knows them and vouches for them." That alone raised protest.

"How can you even trust him?"

"That's completely unfair."

"Shut up, God. There's a lot you guys don't know about this investigation, and Izuku is the last person in this class that's going to be suspected, so yeah, I trust his judgement." Kaminari said, shutting down the more defensive classmates.
