Chapter 125 - Other Activities 4

The nicknames or codenames they each went by were based on their Quirks.

One of the puppets was called Eyes, while the other was called Arms, with the other two people being called Spring and Gasser.

They came together for the same goal, but there was a limit to how much they would share about themselves.

A part of it was that they were not quite ready to open up about their past and the difficulties that had led them to their current position.

Another reason which was likely to hold more importance was how they needed to be able to better protect themselves.

If there was one thing they must have learned, then it was that they needed to be able to protect their identity.

They were vigilantes, so they needed to be able to avoid being recognised by anyone when they were doing what they were doing.

If the police or the hero association came to know of their identity, along with the things they were often getting into, then there would surely be consequences to come.

If their enemies came to know their identity, then it could result in those around them being targeted to get to them, just as it would be easier to find them.

Anyone who saw their face or knew their name could become a potential target for those who had malicious intentions.

If they were just ordinary citizens with no protection, then they would become easy targets, and they would give up such information quite quickly if they were threatened, bribed or tortured to make them talk.

Even if someone was trustworthy enough to keep the secret, it was still a big problem to have them keep such a big secret that could make them a target for such things.

It was better to protect others from their activities and to keep everything separate from their true identity and real life.

They were forced to split themselves into two as they lived dual lives.

One life would be completely ordinary, while the other would involve their vigilante activities.

With each day that passed as they continued their vigilante activities, it was likely that they would have been making many more enemies, the more things they got involved in.

The group of four finished their meeting before heading out.

Spring made use of their Quirk to jump up to various places that they could reach as a result of their spring-like limbs, letting them leap higher and further the more they applied more pressured force to their limbs before releasing it.

They jumped high, allowing them to gain access to certain areas that others would not find it so easy to get to.

If they could not reach it in one go, then they could still make use of the environment to get higher, like springing off one wall onto another repeatedly until they reached the spot they wished to get to.

One of them could achieve such a feat quite easily, so it made it easier to gain access to certain access points that could be lowered from those positions, like how there would be some ladders on a landing at the back or side of such buildings.

Not all of them had staircases at the bottom, as there would sometimes be a ladder near the bottom that would have to be let down to allow people to make use of it.

If it were left to be down all of the time, then anyone could climb up and slip into the windows of people's homes; that way, if the windows were left unlocked or slightly open.

The residents of such buildings could climb out on those landings to get some air, smoke or anything else they would need to do out there, while it would be possible for them to leave that way if they wanted to do so.

Such a route would usually be quite good for escaping their home if they could not use the regular route that was available during times when there was a fire or if the police were at their door and they needed to make a quick escape despite being on a higher floor.

Navigating was a lot easier with Spring to help out, but it was not just him who could help out with such things.

There were some things that Tiffany had gained through her connections and her own efforts.

One of those was modifications, attachments or tools that she could make use of to aid her in combat or to just support her in other ways.

One of those just so happened to be a grappling hook that could allow her to assist with such obstacles that could stand in her way.

The four of them moved from one place to the next while seeking out various vantage points where they could look for anything happening in the surrounding area.

Tiffany played the biggest role as an observer from such a position.

She stood up high and revealed more of her body as she rolled up her sleeves and exposed more of what was hidden beneath her clothing.

Each hidden eye on the body of her puppet was revealed as she used it to look toward various directions all at once.

Her arms were moving around slowly as she pointed her palms facing toward various locations, allowing each eye on her palms to look toward where they had been pointed.

She continued to scan the area carefully before speaking up. "Up ahead. There seems to be some movement."
