"What? He was rescued? And they were shaken off?"
"Search! You must find him!!"
"Arrange personnel at all exits of Miho Town to check! Mori Valley Teiji must not be allowed to leave!"
"Additionally, issue a bounty and wanted notice for Mori Valley Teiji. You must find him for me!"
"..."
At the Metropolitan Police Department, after Odagiri Toshiro received this news in his office, he felt his world collapse.
He didn't expect such an accident to happen at this time.
He then decisively issued orders and took corresponding measures.
No matter what, Mori Valley Teiji must be found, otherwise the Metropolitan Police Department will be in big trouble!
After hanging up the phone, Odagiri Toshiro sighed and rubbed his temples with a headache.
If he had known something like this would happen, he would have just handed the person over to the Public Security Police, and this matter would have nothing to do with them.
"But... how did Azu the Bandit know Mori Valley Teiji's location? Could there be an insider in the Metropolitan Police Department?" With something like this happening, it was inevitable that Odagiri Toshiro would frown and become suspicious.
However, considering that Mori Valley Teiji had contact with Azu the Bandit... it's not impossible that the other party had been watching Mori Valley Teiji.
Odagiri Toshiro didn't want to think too much about this. The top priority was to report the situation to the Superintendent General.
After thinking for a moment, he picked up his phone and called Superintendent Hakuba.

Meanwhile, at the Liquor Organization.
"Isn't this guy named Mori Valley Teiji a bit too bold? He blew up a Shrine?" After seeing this news, Vodka's eyes widened. Besides being shocked, he said with great interest, "Boss Rum, the Organization is currently short on talent!"
"I think he's a talent. Why don't we bring this guy into the Organization as well?"
"Mori Valley Teiji didn't do it." Rum said slowly, "According to the information I received, this was most likely done by Azu the Bandit... He framed that designer."
"What? Those good-for-nothings at the Metropolitan Police Department can't even investigate something like this? These Police are really useless!" Vodka made no secret of his disdain for the Police.
"The Police know, but they weren't confident they could catch Azu the Bandit, so they made that designer take the blame." Rum sneered, "They even had a fight with the Public Security Bureau earlier..."
When he thought about how the Metropolitan Police Department gained nothing from this incident and even suffered a great loss, he couldn't help but laugh.
Vodka then suggested, "Boss Rum, shouldn't we take this opportunity to do something?"
"No, let's lay low for a while first." Rum refused without thinking.
Vodka was a bit unwilling. He turned to look at Gin, who was leaning silently on a chair, indifferent to these matters.
-----------------------------------------------------
Teitan High School, during lunch break.
"I can't believe Professor Moriya is the culprit behind this series of bombings!"
"It's really hard to understand... He wanted to blow up buildings just because the ones he built weren't symmetrical."
"To get revenge on society, he even blew up a Shrine... Miho Town has started strict investigations, and the Police have now issued a bounty."
"Only one billion yen? With such a big commotion, how could they offer such a low bounty?"
"But... Baishi is probably in trouble now, being targeted by Mori Valley Teiji."
"..."
In Class 2-B, Ran and Sonoko were discussing the statements Mori Valley Teiji posted online.
But as they talked, they felt something was off.
"It's already been fifteen minutes, why hasn't Baishi come over yet?" Ran looked towards the classroom door with confusion.
"Yeah, he should have been here by now at this time." Sonoko suddenly had a bad feeling and said uneasily, "Could something have happened? Should we go check on him in his class?"
"Okay." Ran agreed to the suggestion.
After putting away their lunch boxes, the two left the classroom and went to Class 2-D.
As soon as they reached the doorway, they saw a crowd of girls surrounding Baishi Hui.
"Shirashi-kun, this is my love letter, please accept it!"
"Shirashi-kun, this is a special bento box I prepared for you with love."
"Shirashi-kun, are you free to go on a date with me this afternoon?"
"..."
This situation surprised both Ran and Sonoko. They hadn't expected Mori Valley Teiji's video to have such a big impact on Baishi Hui, instantly boosting his reputation and making him the object of competition among the female students at school.
Baishi Hui repeatedly refused, but found that these female classmates were even more enthusiastic than Sonoko.
He regretted it greatly. If he had known earlier, he would have edited the video first, cut out the part about himself, and avoided so much trouble.
At this moment, seeing Ran and Sonoko arrive, he immediately shouted loudly, "You don't need to waste your efforts! I already have someone I like, see, it's these two!"
Baishi Hui said, reaching out and pointing at Ran and Sonoko.
The other girls immediately turned around and saw that one was a rich young lady from a wealthy family, and the other was a beautiful and capable popular figure.
Thinking that their competitors were such excellent women, their spirits were instantly crushed, and they felt they had no hope!
"It's too late to realize Baishi's excellence now!!" Sonoko snorted proudly, feeling she had a discerning eye for people, and said smugly, "You've missed your chance, so don't waste your time!"
Saying that, she went over and pulled Baishi Hui away!
Ran had never done something so domineering before. She looked a bit embarrassed and followed him away in a hurry.
After leaving the classroom, Baishi Hui sighed. He had still underestimated the importance of "deduction" in this world: "Ah, I've kept a low profile for so long, but I still ended up attracting attention."
Sonoko said with a grin, "There's nothing you can do about it. Someone as capable as Baishi is like a firefly in the dark night, so conspicuous, so outstanding!"
"That's right~~~ Capable people will become famous sooner or later!" Ran also said happily.
She was happy because he had expressed very directly who he liked, which gave her a sense of security.
Unlike Shinichi, who only cared about enjoying the flowers and applause and even accepted love letters from others, he wasn't decisive at all!
"I still want to keep a low profile." Baishi Hui didn't want to attract too much attention.
It was enough to show off under the identity of Azu the Bandit; this identity wasn't needed.
He thought for a moment and said, "I want to take a few days off during this time to lay low... Being targeted doesn't feel good."
"That's true... After all, we don't know when Mori Valley Teiji will come to get revenge on you." Sonoko also felt some worry about this.
Ran comforted him, "Baishi, you don't have to worry too much. Maybe the Police will catch Professor Moriya in a few days?"
Regarding this, Baishi Hui knew in his heart that it was impossible.
Because Mori Valley Teiji was currently diving in Tokyo Bay, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would spend the rest of his life there and would not surface again.
