[MHCISQD] Chapter 209: Hospital

Among all the personnel involved in the operation, the members of the police force were mostly engaged in resisting the ordinary and intermediate members of the Shie Hassaikai. Therefore, although they sustained injuries, they were not severe.

On the other hand, the hero group faced formidable opponents such as Chisaki's loyal subordinates. As a result, many people suffered severe injuries, including Kirishima, Fat Gum, and even Amajiki, who had previously fought three opponents alone and was not lightly wounded but relatively better off.

These injured people were being sent to the hospital one after another. Aizawa promptly informed Recovery Girl at the school to have her assist in healing at the hospital.

As for Chisaki, who had lost half of his life due to Renault's devastating blow, he was strictly handled. All the bullets that could destroy Quirks were confiscated, and he was transported in a police explosive-resistant rescue vehicle to a specialized containment facility for further healing.

With a mobile phone in hand, Renault was preparing to find a place to eat and replenish their depleted stamina with everyone when Nighteye approached.

"Renault."

Setting down his phone, Renault looked at Nighteye and asked, "Sir Nighteye, is there something you need?"

Nighteye didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Earlier, I used my Quirk, Foresight, on your future."

"Oh?" Renault wasn't angry, knowing Nighteye's intention to do so. "What did Sir Nighteye see then? Our future of victory?"

Shaking his head, Nighteye said, "I didn't see anything. Your future was obscured by a thick fog; I couldn't see anything. However, thankfully, the operation resulted in victory."

"Couldn't see anything?" Renault was taken aback. He didn't expect Nighteye to give him this answer. He had thought that if Nighteye had seen something, like All Might's future, he would confess it to him. After all, they were old partners, and sharing such information might ease their current relationship.

But Nighteye couldn't see anything at all?

Renault guessed the reason to some extent and said, "Since you couldn't see anything, then so be it. After all, my fate is in my own hands. Whether you know or not, what difference does it make? Just like today's operation, I won't lose to some so-called destiny and fate."

"Very well," Nighteye nodded and said, "I had always thought that only All Might could bear the burden of being the Symbol of Peace. After him, it was supposed to be Mirio. However, now All Might has chosen Midoriya Izuku, and you are another surprising junior to me. I am satisfied with you. Compared to that youngster Midoriya, he still needs a lot of training."

Listening to Nighteye's words, Renault knew that Nighteye had learned quite a bit. He replied, "My way of growth is different from Midoriya's, but he resembles All Might a lot. Once he sets his mind on something, he charges forward with determination. I have always believed that he is capable of inheriting All Might's will. Please, Sir Nighteye, guide my schoolmate well."

After a moment of consideration, Renault decided to reveal some information. He leaned close to Nighteye and whispered something in a lower voice.

Nighteye's eyes widened instantly upon hearing it.

"You're not lying to me, are you?"

"I gain nothing from lying, don't I?" Renault said with a smile.

"Indeed, but I will still confirm it... Renault, I know that you possess a remarkable strength behind you. Since All Might trusts you, I won't say much more. Just keep doing your best." With that, Nighteye left briskly, bringing along his two sidekicks.

'It looks like you're going to U.A., huh?' Renault said in his heart when saw them leave.

All Might stayed nearby the whole time, but he didn't have a chance to show up, so he went back directly.

Taking out his phone, Renault sent a message to All Might and then called a few people who could still move to find a place to eat.

After filling their stomachs, they bought some desserts for Eri, who was in the hospital and brought plenty of food for the injured. The group then got in a car and rushed to the hospital.

Eri's examination was still in progress, so Renault and the others first arrived at Kirishima's ward.

"Hey, still alive, huh?" Renault opened the door and greeted them with a smile.

"I'm really annoyed seeing you all lively and energetic. Why am I the only one with such serious injuries?" Kirishima, whose body was wrapped in bandages, said displeasedly.

Beside Kirishima's bed, Amajiki, who had already been healed, had fallen into a deep sleep.

And on the opposite bed, Fat Gum sat up and sniffed, saying, "I smell food!"

"I brought you some gifts," Renault said as he and the others took out things from the bag. "But I didn't expect, Fat Gum, that you would still have such a side to you."

The current Fat Gum no longer looked like the tall and round figure he used to be; he had slimmed down and looked quite handsome.

"No choice, I used up all my energy, so naturally, I lost weight," he said while using his functioning hand to pick up a fork and started eating quickly.

"Ah, I want to eat too!" Kirishima waved his two hands, which were fixed in casts, with a greedy expression on his face.

After a while of commotion, Aizawa finally arrived.

"Renault, Midoriya, Mirio, you three come with me."

Leaving the care of several patients to the girls, Renault and the others left the ward and followed Aizawa.

As soon as they came out, Midoriya immediately asked, "Aizawa-sensei, how is Eri-chan doing?"

Aizawa said, "Not bad. Recovery Girl is also here and she healed Eri's wounds completely. However, the child still lacks any sense of security and is quite anxious. It seems we still have to rely on all of you. Her Quirk, when not activated, is manageable, but if it's triggered, it can easily go out of control. Without me around, it's impossible to keep it in check. Previously, she unintentionally reverted a few glass cups back into molecules. Moreover, if she gets emotionally agitated, it's also easy for her Quirk to activate. According to the doctor's advice, it's best to observe her for now and avoid unnecessary contact with outsiders."

The doctor's advice is indeed reasonable but not necessarily effective.

"In the end, is it still a psychological issue?" Renault analyzed. "Although we saved her, years of repression and trauma have made her mind extremely fragile. We need to come up with some effective methods."

As they spoke, the group arrived at Eri's ward. The examination was already over, and at this moment, only the kind-hearted Recovery Girl was accompanying Eri.

"Oh! All of you are here," Recovery Girl said as she noticed everyone had gathered. She stood up from her chair and headed towards the door of the ward. "I'll go check on the other patients. I'll leave this place to you."

Aizawa also chimed in, "I'll go with you. Mirio, you're the senpai, so make sure those two behave."

After Aizawa and Recovery Girl left, Renault and the other two looked at each other before turning their gaze towards Eri, who was sleeping soundly in the hospital bed.

For now, all they could do was wait.
