strings of fate

Fourteen years after witnessing the murder of his mother and learning that the mysterious villain known as All For One is his father, Izuku Midoriya has become one of Musutafu's most unconventional investigators. Gifted with the supernatural ability to see the invisible strings connecting every living soul-and possessing an extraordinary sense of smell capable of unraveling crimes others cannot-Izuku works outside the Hero system, solving cases that even Pro Heroes cannot explain. When a string of impossible murders reveals the work of a brilliant illusionist who manipulates memories through scent, Izuku is pulled into a conspiracy stretching across the city's criminal underworld. Alongside the skeptical underground hero Shota Aizawa and Detective Naomasa Tsukauchi, he follows a trail that leads ever closer to the man responsible for destroying his childhood. But every mystery uncovers another secret, every string leads to another lie, and the greatest truth of all may be the blood running through Izuku's own veins. In a city built on heroes and villains, one detective hunts not for justice-but for the truth hidden beneath every scent.
