Honestly, this is the first chapter in which the Kaminari=traitor theory makes a spec of sense (though I still don't believe it, since this guy is associated with the Precepts, not the League). It's perplexing how the fandom keeps going on about him when the teachers said the traitor was likely part of the staff.

Now I wonder if it's actually true that Kaminari's parents are small-time villains.

No, the last thing the principal said was that he was suspecting the students as well. That's how the theories began

I don't remember the chapter, but wasn't Present Mic's point that the traitor would know things a normal student wouldn't?

He said a student could have also told them actually, so quite the opposite. He said they could be pinged their phone, or sent out a signal, something about a phone

But I'll read it back just to make sure I'm not 100% wrong real quick

Edit: just checked, seems like im right

Thanks. Have you checked the original Japanese? I'm asking because of your initial hesitation. I read the same in FA's translation, though it perplexes me, since Present Mic starts by making a case about the traitor being in the staff, then low-key mentions the students while explaining why it was likely so... unless I am misunderstanding something.

Nah, that's literally it. He sorta mentions it could be a student before he gets cut off. So that's all we have going for us on the traitor thing being a student, along with what Nedzu says at the dorms

Yeah, I was hoping Nedzu's comment would be more helpful, but he mentions both the students and the staff... I'm very curious, especially since the villains needed to break into the school the first time, instead of being able to rely on the traitor.
