Chapter 171: Shopping Mall 3
Uraraka thought that she could enjoy this shopping trip together with Midoriya. She was quite happy and felt a bit ashamed when Brando gave her a thums up. 'That guy...' She looked at Midoriya who was looking around with an excited expression. She was happy, but her pocket wasn't happy. She wasn't rich and her money wasn't much since her parents weren't rich.
"What do you want to buy, Uraraka?" Midoriya asked.
"Huh?" Uraraka was a bit stunned and didn't react when Midoriya asked her a question.
"I am going to buy a couple of heavy weight writs," Midoriya said.
"I.... need bug spray," Uraraka said then suddenly she remembered her conversation with Aoyama during the practical exam. Her face turned red and she ran away from this place. She thought that she wasn't ready for this yet. "Bug spray!!!!"
"...." Midoriya wasn't sure what to say and he was alone in this place, even though he had come with everyone earlier. He was wondering what he should do now until suddenly someone came toward him.
"Hey, aren't you a student from U.A.?"
Midoriya was nervous and laughed awkwardly.
"Didn't you also meet the Hero Killer in the Hosu before?" The man wrapped his hand around Midoriya's neck.
"Haha... You know a lot about me," Midoriya said, but suddenly he felt an uncanny feeling.
"Men, but I can't believe that we will meet each other in this place."
Midoriya turned and felt that the hand of this man started holding his neck. He opened his eyes wide and felt dread. "Tomura Shigaraki...."
"How about we have a chat in that place?" Tomura said and walked while holding Midoriya's neck.
Gulp!
Midoriya didn't do anything since this situation was too dangerous for him. He knew Tomura's Quirk and it would be easy for Tomora to kill him directly.
Tomura and Midoriya sat down together on the nearby bench to chat together.
Tomura told Midoriya that he could kill him along with a lot of people in their surroundings easily. He told him that he could create chaos easily.
Midoriya sweated profusely and decided to follow him since he couldn't do anything in this situation.
Then Tomura started to talk about how he was very annoyed by Hero Killer. He told Midoriya why Hero Killer was more famous then him even thought both of them were doing a crime. He was very unsatisfied with it and wondered whether Midoriya knew the answer.
"What makes you different?" Midoriya thought about a lot of things with a lot of sweat on his face. "I think.... The Hero Killer, even though I don't accept him, but I understand him..."
"For both me and Hero Killer...."
"It all started... with All Might."
"Back then he even saved me. So at the very least.... He's destructive, but he's doing it for a reason."
"It's not just for fun."
"Not at all.
"His methods might be wrong, but I think he is trying to live by his ideals."
Shudder!
Tomura suddenly understood everything. His mouth evoked a curve showing a creepy smile.
Midoriya felt fear and a lot of things from Tomura. His breathing became erratic and he could faint anytime soon.
Tomura tightened his hand around Midoriya's neck. "I understand. Ahh... It's all clear now. It feels like I have conncected the dots. About why the Hero Killer pisses me off so much... And why you're so damned irrirating... I think I get it now."
"It's all cuz of All Might."
Tomura was very happy and didn't think that he had found the reason for his annoyed feeling.

"Uraraka?"
Uraraka turned and saw Brando. "Dio? Why are you here?"
"I am going to the toilet. You're not going with Midoriya?" Brando asked.
"W - Well...." Uraraka blushed in response.
"You shouldn't be too shy. Go for him, I'll support you," Brando said while pushing her shoulders.
"OK." Uraraka nodded when she heard Brando's support and walked toward Midoriya's direction.
Brando smiled and he walked away somewhere.
---
"Huh?"
"Right? That's the conclusion here. Man, what was I so hung up on anyway...? The reason why those fools can smile and live their lives is cuz of All Might's always got that grin on his face."
"Smiling wide, as if to say there's no one he can't save!"
"Ah, I am glad that we had this chat! I'm so glad! Thanks Midoriya!"
"Hey, no squirming. Do you want them to die?"
Midoriya could only be silent while letting Tomura hold his neck tightly.
Tomura smiled happily until he heard a voice on his side.
"Deku?"
"..."
Midoriya and Tomura looked at Uraraka who had come toward them.
"A friend? No, it doesn't look like it. Could you get off him?" Uraraka asked with a worried expression.
"N - Nothing! I am fine! Just stay back." Midoriya panicked.
"I didn't realise that you came with some." Tomura let go of his hand and smiled toward Uraraka. "Sorry about that." He stood up and walked away from them. Anyway, his mood was pretty good and he could go back home.
"Cough! Cough! Cough!" Midoriya coughed really hard after his neck being held tightly by Tomura.
"Deku-kun!" Uraraka came toward Midoriya worriedly.
"Wait... Shigaraki? All-For-One... What's he after?" Midoriya said, looking fiercely toward Tomura.
"Shigaraki, do you mean?" Uraraka was shocked when she heard that name.
"Dunno." Tomura kept walking and said, "What should you worry about is meeting me again. Cuz that when you're going to die." He ignored them and hid around the crowd. He didn't need to change and nothing needed to change. He had already gotten his conviction and ideals from Hero Killer. What he only needed to do now was to destroy the symbol of peace, All Might. He walked away, but stopped when he saw soemone stopped in front of him.
"Coffee?"
Tomura looked up and smiled. "Sure."
