Before-and Imma correct you a bit-the slash wounds were always big and PROMINENT-they were clean marks, sure, but they were always well displayed-like some sort of symbol...other than that, the villain left no calling card, no trace of their true identity-they hadn't even given themselves the name-it was just what the media had named them due to the clouds of smoke, fog or mist that always shielded all but their shadowy figure whenever anyone managed to snag pictures of them-whoever they were, they didn't want to be found.
And as usual-, Dabi didn’t really put much of a fight about it. Since well, what choice did he have? None, ANYWAYS. He had tracked down the last location of the new dead body, and tried tracing down whatever clues he might have to use there.. luckily, it was “his” scene. No one else knew about it, so it shouldn’t be to hard find something.
Nothing of note, just a small-time hero. There wasn't really anything on the body-wait no-there was dried blood on him that didn't match up with any of the patterns of his stab wounds-which meant it had to be the villain's-wherever they were it had to be somewhere they could have access to first-aid supplies-
“… Should’ve cleaned the body, gave yourself right away.”
He stood up from the body, and placed his hands in his jacket, you know, the “chains” were getting rather tiring.. maybe he should take them outttt.. nahhh, maybe later. We don’t want him being able to slip his tongue through his cheek now- uw u
