To be fair, him being a drug addict was probably better in his case. He was lied to and then dragged off to the military simply because a random guy’s curiosity, he was bullied relentlessly, nearly killed numerous times, discriminated against because his low esp power, and no one offered help till last minute when he was already killing people. I can get why he’d want to run away, imagine living your life excited to be apart of a group that rejects you then they wait till you’re older the literally make you pass out then kidnap you. You wouldn’t be too happy.
Call me shamless but this guiding-esper tropes always like esper trying to runaway like ungrateful brat, tho they get help without their consent but still they lucky enough nothing bad happens （￣へ￣） even tho they needed the most help (like this overcome drug addict), they always short minded to runaway without any plan to what to do after that. Like if i were that esper then well i got nothing to lose and i get to live and get help so why not ┑(￣Д ￣)┍ rather than living in the street with drugs.
