Chapter 3 - Chapter 2: The boy from nowhere

Yang's body slowly leaned back, but before he could touch the ground, Yin caught him. He no longer show any cruelty or perversion, only disbelief and fear.

At that moment, the police and two female heroes also regained consciousness. They rushed in and subdued Yin while checking the young man's condition. Yin was struggling and resisting to stay close to his older brother until he heard a female voice.

"Your older brother can be saved, but if you don't let us take him for treatment, he will surely die." Yin gave up his resistance and begged everyone to help his brother.

The dragon from before was no longer there, and in front of everyone appeared a beautiful woman, with a hourglass figure.

She had a chin-length blonde hair. She had thin, yellow, inward-tilting eyes with slit pupils and notably sharp teeth

Her hero costume consists of a dark red, traditional qipao with a pale green scale trim around her shoulders, which seems to only be slit on the left side ,knee-high boots and a strap around her exposed thigh . She wears a matching green headband with four large, pale purple claws attached, covering the right side of her face, and a set of small black dragon wings protrude from the back of her head, with a number of gold spiked cartilage piercings decorating her left ear.

At that moment she was heading towards the young man in black armor. His condition looked terrible, with at least a quarter of his armor, including the helmet, damaged, revealing his white skin and part of his face.

Nejire was already there, trying to remove the helmet to help the victim breathe. Removing the armor, the face underneath made the hearts of the two people tighten. It was not a man, but a young boy, even younger than Nejire.

He had a blonde undercut and a western-style face, handsome but still with a hint of youthfulness. His strong and balanced body with a height of over 1.7 meters made outsiders mistake him for an adult.

The two checked his pulse, fortunately, it was still working. Despite their efforts to wake him up, it was not effective. Worried that any random body movement could cause unforeseen consequences for the injured person, they could only wait for the medical staff to arrive. They also searched the young boy for any identification, but it was futile.

Instead, they found: 4 hidden knives, a strange-looking handgun that had run out of bullets, and three small devices believed to be grenades. Looking at the mini arsenal in front of them, Ryukyu's mood became even worse, and Nejire wasn't much better.

A child who was not yet 14 years old had carried a large amount of deadly weapons. Judging by his clothing and bloodstain It was highly likely that the child had been through a life-or-death battle, and perhaps had even killed someone. This thought made Ryukyu, who was known for being kind-hearted and loving children, feel even more unwell.

Her train of thought was suddenly interrupted by the sound of an ambulance siren. As a hero, she felt the responsibility to leave her doubts behind and help the police transport the injured to the nearby hospital.

*******

In the hallway of a hospital, a conversation was taking place between three individuals.

"What do you mean there's no result?" He has been here for over three hours, Shido. How is it possible that we still don't have any information?" The speaker was none other than the heroine Ryukyu.

"How could this be our fault ? I compared the child's face and fingerprints to the national database, but there was no match. All foreigners visiting or moving to our country are being checked, but there's no progress." Responding to her was a middle-aged man with a silver beard, wearing a uniform, and with a long tail behind his head, at the end of which was an electrical plug.

"So we still have no good news?" As someone who loves children very much, seeing a child in such a state makes her very uneasy. That's why right after her patrol, she immediately returned to the hospital to check on the situation.

"Don't worry too much, Ryuko (Ryukyu's real name), the child's condition is very good, too good, in fact. At least that's how it seem, all the body indices of the child are not only great but also far better than any normal person's. The kid doesn't have any open wounds on his body, the only abnormality is brain signals, maybe the child will wake up when they stabilize." On Ryuko's left side was a doctor with a bald head and slightly hunched back, his voice was slow but very firm, full of persuasive power.

Listening to the voice of Doctor Shiegeki, Ryuko's mind calmed down, but followed by suspicion. "What about the bloodstains on the kid's body and the tear on his clothes?"

Doctor Shiegeki didn't answer immediately, but took a deep breath first. "The kid is likely to have a Quirk that enhances his physical abilities. His skin is as hard as metal, and all the needles that was used to insert into his body were bent when they were inserted. Although his skin is not invincible, it requires delicate methods to break through.

In addition, the armor he wears is also extraordinary. Its durability is not inferior to the kid's skin, and it may even be stronger. Until now, we have not been able to identify the material it is made of. It is very possible that this is why he doesn't have any wounds on his body."

The doctor's words did not make Ryuko feel more comfortable, on the contrary, they made her feel more uneasy. She wanted to ask but hesitated.

Noticing her expression, Shiegeki continued speaking. "Regarding the bloodstain on his body, we cannot confirm if it belongs to him or not. Not only because we haven't taken a direct blood sample yet, but also because the blood on his body is a mixture of at least seven different people."

This news was undoubtedly alarming, and Doctor Shiegeki didn't give them time to contemplate. "The kid's body clearly shows signs of someone who has undergone training. The calluses on his hands, as well as the structure of his bones and muscles, all attest to this.

The places where the bloodstains on his clothes are most concentrated are also his hands, we also found some fragments of internal organs in there. The kid in front of us may not be a weak prey, but a skilled hunter, and his methods are extremely ruthless."

After speaking, his eyes narrowed, and no one could tell what he was thinking. The atmosphere became very heavy, and the first person to break the silence was Shido, the police officer. "Don't jump to any conclusions before we have enough evidence. So far, all we have is speculation."

" Investigator Shido" the other two murmured quietly.

"Even if our initial assumptions are correct, we cannot pass judgment willy-nilly. This world is full of oddities, and as the people who fight for what is right, We must keep our conscience from being blinded by our opinion" Shido's voice became stronger and more compelling as he spoke, making it difficult for anyone to argue.

"You are absolutely right" said Shiegeki.

"Indeed, you are correct"said Ryuko.

...

As the three conversed, a voice rang out from a nearby distance. "Hello, everyone. Am I late?" Approaching was a man in a white doctor's uniform, the most striking feature being a device attached to his right eye (like Deadshot's eyepiece in DC), and on his right hand was a metal glove with elongated fingertips."

"Oh, Hideo has arrived. Don't worry, there are no issues at the moment. And how about your surgery?" Dr. Shiegeki replied amiably, and the other two also greeted politely.

"Well, that's great news. The surgery had some difficulties, so I couldn't finish it earlier, but fortunately, everything went smoothly."

"That's really good news. You have worked hard, Hideo, but we still don't know the cause of the patient's unconsciousness, so I hope you can start right away if possible."

"It's nothing, really. It's just a small matter for me. I can do it even with my eyes closed. But of course, being careful is always better, right? Hahaha..." After a light laugh, the atmosphere became much more relaxed, and Hideo immediately began his work.

In the hospital room, Hideo was standing next to the bed, in front of him was a teenager in patient clothing, with his arms and legs tightly fixed to the bed to prevent any unexpected accidents. After adjusting his glasses and gloves, he started the procedure. His right hand, or more precisely, his right index finger, lit up with a thin, red energy beam that was as thin as a needle. Contacting the patient's skin, Hideo slowly adjusted the intensity of the energy beam using the control knob on his palm. After half a minute, smoke rose from the point of contact, and the bright beam almost penetrated the skin.

AND THEN... the unexpected happened.

The young man who was in a comatose state suddenly opened his eyes, his entire body tensed up, and his right hand swung violently, instantly breaking the restraints. Doctor Hideo, who had not yet regained his composure, had his hand grabbed, and the pain immediately spread as his glove tore apart, despite his struggling.

Immediately after, the young man's left hand also broke free, he clump 5 fingers together like a spearhead, thrusting straight towards the poor doctor's chest...
