A random NPC | BNHA

Chapter 5

Thanks for reading!

I turned around being aware of the knife pointed near my throat and saw the blue eyed man. He wore common attire, but I can't tell what else he has on him due to the darkness, though I think I saw something resembling a snowboard on his back.

I said "Please don't kill me, and can you tell me a way for me to call you since I am tired of saying blue eyed man every time I see you?"

"Call me Rider for now and obviously you saw what I did in the alley the other day, killing you to shut you up would be the obvious choice, no?"

After hearing that, I feared for my life and my family's since he may change his mind and threaten my family instead. In order to appease him, I must make a deal, even if I don't want to get in trouble.

"I don't want to be killed here, I can promise you that I will keep your secret. I can offer you a deal as long as you swear to not kill me and my family."

"Let's just say that I accepted your so called deal, with your quirk or power what can you even offer me?"

"I would act as a distraction, so the police would not discover you and your shady business."

"Even if you did annoy the police to a point where they forget my existence, you wouldn't be of much help as I am not a target of the police."

I gritted my teeth hearing that, I can't think of any other way to get him to spare my life. Oh wait, this so-called Rider actually resembles someone I know with his blue eyes, button nose, complexion and hair texture, though I am not completely sure whether he is related to her and the darkness of the graveyard is not helping. I might just need to take this gamble and hope for the best.

"You know, you do kind of resemble someone I know,"

He looked nervous at this point and it elevated my theory.

"Are you, by chance, related to Mizuno Aoi?"

His eyes widened at that, he even let down the knife from my throat, and that proved my theory correct. They both share wavy blue hair, though his is a shade darker, dark blue eyes and light skin. Maybe I should consider being a theorist in the future.

"How did you know?"

"Umm, your appearance resembles hers?" I nervously said.

"So she didn't tell you that herself?"

"She didn't and why are you so anxious about it?"

"You see, I got into trouble years ago and ended up like this. Aoi doesn't know this side of me, so can you please keep it a secret from her? In turn, I will tell you why not a lot of people noticed me that day, deal?"

"How do you know that I am curious about why no one noticed it?"

"I mean no one usually does, so I think you would be curious about it and I'll need to tell you why you were able to see me in the alley that day as well."

"Well, okay."

"I think we'll need to go to another place to talk about this, staying here too long will attract attention. So please follow me and don't worry I'll assure your safety as this is part of the deal."

"Are you aware of the fact that by saying that just makes me not trust you more?"

He smirked at me and said "Well, I guess I will consider this a trial to earn your trust."

Then he winked and started to drag me away to wherever he wanted.
