Chapter 22 - Searching for a Hero (I)

After the bell rang to indicate the end of the lesson an overly excited Midoriya appeared, grabbed his arm and started to drag him towards the exit closely followed by the constantly mad kid Bakugo. Thankfully they were able to loose the hindrance in the crowd that stood outside the classroom.
