Reborn from the ashes from hell

Tsukauchi POV

Flashback

Me: so, why can't you tell me what your name is

Kid: I can't tell you what I don't know myself

Truth

Doesn't he know his name what he just said wasn't a question or an answer but rather a fact. I don't know much about my quirk and it has a bunch of loopholes so he's probably telling the truth because he's always told the truth so far. He seems like a boy who sticks with the truth

Me: why are you on this beach?

Kid: didn't I mention that already? I found my purpose in life here. And laid down after I finally reached it.

Truth

Me: what happened before you reached your goal? Were you with anyone? Do you know their name?

Kid: Yes, I was with some of them. What were the names of seagull, rose bettle, mosquito, street pigeon, eagle and wood pigeon

Truth

Did he just mention some of the animals he met along the way? This kid it really innocent

Me: were there any other you encountered on your way to your destination? People at best.

Child: You

Truth

Ok. That wasn't really helpful. Not

Me: What do you want to do now that you've reached your destination?

Child: just lie here and look at the beautiful sky. I could do that forever and ever. Isn't it fascinating to see everything that looks unattainable and is also unattainable for a normal person, but seems so attainable with your eyes.

Truth

If all children of his age were like that, the world would really be filled with poets

Me: Aren't there other beautiful places that you know from here? For example, the place you came from.

I understood, I have to formulate the questions a little differently and then it works.

The child points to the sea,

Kid: that's where I come from.

Truth

There is nothing to be seen far and wide. No boat, no island, nothing. I don't the he has risen from the sea, like Poseidon, or I don't know who. But how can it be the truth. Did he hit his head and now he's so confused he thinks it's the truth.

Me: Child can you give me any information you can help me further. To get you into a warm safe home with parents, relatives or your guardians. I'm sure you'll be worried by now.

Kid: I don't have parents, relatives or guardians right now. And I can't give you any information that can help you in any way.

Truth

The longer I have this conversation with this child, the more confused I get. It somehow doesn't take any time.

Me: Don't get me wrong, kid, but I can't let you here on the beach alone.

Kid: But it's fine on this beach. It's cozy and I can survive without food.

Truth

One piece of information that a child normally should not have

Me: when was the last time you actually ate something ?

The child starts counting on his fingers. Oh dear, that's worrying.

Kid: I can't remember

Truth

That's worrying too

Me: Don't you feel hungry?

Kid: No, I'm not hungry.

Truth

Red flags dance before my eyes

Me: So child. Report something you did see yesterday.

Kid: Darkness

Truth

What.

Okay, I'll start differently this time. Most children are always scared when they find out that a policeman or detective is standing in front of them. They imagine they've somehow done something wrong or something. I'll try to be a bit calmer and I'll leave out the fact that I'm a detective who works for the police, that might be too complicated.

Me: You see, it's my job to look after people here. I work for the police and help citizens stay away from existing prisoners and stay safe. That includes making sure people stick to the rules and looking after children like you. So how would you like to go to the police station with me. And you answer a few more questions and I give you something to eat.

Kid: what does police mean?

Me:...

does he really not know what police means?

Me: don't you know what police means?

Kid: yes

Truth

How the fu-fuel. The kid is so innocent I am not even cussing in my thoughts near him. Sigh

Me: police officers look after people, make sure everything is okay and that they stick to the rules.

Kid: don't hero's already do that

At least something 

Me: yes, but the heroes are more specialized in fighting, the cops are more specialized in arresting the bad guys that have been caught or making sure everyone follows the rules

Kid: that sounds great, that means you protect the harmony

Truth

Wow, the child is rally pure.

Kid: do you also take care of the counterproductive property damage that happens after a hero and villain fight is over. Or hero's facing criminal charges if a hero killed someone on accident while performing an unlawful or negligent act

He doesn't know his name, his legal guardian, where he comes from, doesn't know what a police officer, when he last ate or that he went to a beach but he knows that.

Me: yes, that too

Kid: then you're doing a pretty poor job considering that for example All Might or other do big damage in villain and hero fighters and get off pretty well away, while smaller heroes with less fame have a lot of financial problems if they do damage.

 Is it some kind of stupid joke? Why does he know these things.
