Nezu's eyes read through the information that had been gathered concerning Kumagawa Misogi at record speed. Flipping pages every ten seconds, the genius mouse-man took in all the intelligence even remotely pertaining to the enigmatic teen. He had spent the better part of the day, seeing as school had been canceled so the students could recover from the attack, along with several tech-type Quirk users going through Japan's citizen records. It was a massive undertaking to pick out a single person among the country's entire population. There was also the chance that Kumagawa might not be from Japan at all. However Nezu decided it would be best to start with Japan given Kumagawa's Asian features.

But the information that was collected was unfortunately useless. There were a handful of people with the name Kumagawa Misogi, but none matched his description, appearance or Quirk-type. Searching for anyone with the family name Kumagawa also yielded irrelevant results. Quirk database? Still no. School records? None to be found. Searching for him simply based on appearance was also a waste of time, given his average looks.

The kid was literally a ghost. No records outside of his U.A. admission profile existed.

"Even if he had somehow dodged the census there should still be birth records, Government issued ID, bank records, passport, something- anything." the principal mused as he began re-reading the papers in case he missed something.

"Did you find anything?" came a familiar voice.

Not even bothering to turn his head, Nezu opted to continue his examination of the papers. "Unfortunately no." he responded, flipping over another page.

"Really? You can't tell me that this kid isn't in any of the databases."

"Regardless of how impossible it may seem, that seems to be the case Yagi-san. 'I exist, therefore I am' seems like an accurate way to describe this conundrum."

"This isn't some kind of philosophical theory, people don't just suddenly 'exist'." responded the Pro.

"And yet that is our current predicament. The Villains that escaped yesterdays attack also came up with no hits, but that is also because we don't have proper profiles on them. Kumagawa however is standing right in front of us, yet we still can't grasp just who he is."

"I would almost theorize that Kumagawa was his agent, but his approach is too obvious to even be considered misdirection. And I have a feeling that he had an opportunity to kill me, yet he didn't. Instead he attacked the Noumu." All Might continued to rack his brain in his quest to decipher the being that was Kumagawa Misogi. "Violent tendencies, unpredictable mood swings, distinct lack of self-preservation... An entire psychology class would have a field day with him."

"All joking aside, we have at least determined one aspect of Kumagawa that seems to stick." replied Nezu.

"That being?"

Spinning in his chair, the principal turned to face All Might. "Given his apparent ability to resurrect both himself and others, it is understandable that he either isn't capable of understanding the value of life, or simply chooses to ignore it. Both options are worrying."

All Might hummed in agreement. "Is he a ticking time bomb? Or is he the aftermath of one that already went off? How troublesome..."
