Tsukauchi Naomasa is so done.

In the span of 1 year he's known them, he and that ragtag vigilante trio has had so many run-ins already.

He wouldn't have been surprised by now if a bunch of thugs were tied up in front of the police station with birthday bows.

A sticky note landed in front of him. Tsukauchi sighed, already knowing the drill.

[Like our new name, detective?

_CERBERUS]

The sticky note was blue. Fox, then.

There was an unspoken rule between the vigilante team and the police force, more specifically Tsukauchi.

Fox uses Blue sticky notes.

Bat use Yellow ones.

Owl's are Green.

The whole team would be Orange or Red.

Seems like they got a name for themselves...

"Cerberus, huh?" Tsukauchi crumbled the paper. "Those vigilantes are getting really annoying lately."

"Ah, pardon me, detective, you said Cerberus, yes? The vigilante team that's getting famous in Musutafu lately?"

He almost forgot about Nedzu, the principal was visiting today.

"Yes, that is them. Seems like they recently got a name for themselves." He handed the paper to the rodent.

Nedzu inspected it closely. "This note is similar to the stacks on your desk, is it not?"

Tsukauchi nodded. "That one's from Fox, the one who wears the fox mask."

Nedzu's eyes glinted in interest. "Oh, do tell, how do you differenate the owners of the notes from the others?"

"They signed it the first few months, to get their points across, and stopped altogether. Owl's are green, the one with goggles. Bat's are yellow."

"Oh? And the red or orange ones?"

"I'm not very sure about the red, but i assume it's the same as the orange, the whole team."

"These vigilantes really are intersting, are they not?" Nedzu looked at the piece of paper as if it held all the secrets in the world, which worried Tsukauchi.

"On top of that, we have a returning case that started more than 13 years ago, stopped for 8 years, and has resurfaced the year before." The detective sighed.

"It's about Red Reaper, isn't it? I've always wanted to recruit him, shame he dissapeared that year, i heard his last fight against the Cannibal villain, Ghoul, wasn't a pleasant one." Tsukauchi shook his head in negative.

"It's not. I saw his stomach ripped out, his ribs punctured, his back pierced. It was a gruesome sight, and we're not sure if he survived."

"I'm glad he did, then." Nedzu gave a sadistic smile. "I'm sure he wouldn't mind teaching the kids at UA how real life works, knock their egos down a peg or two. I'll just have to find him first." Nedzu laughed, spilling the cup of tea he got from nowhere, and Tsukauchi suddenly felt sorry for the haemokinetic vigilante, whoever he is, for attracting the principal of UA's attention.

Somewhere on the rooftop of a random builing near the police station, Ketsuburou Shizuki shivered.

He took out a red sticky note.

"Owl, lend me a pen." The boy complied.

Tsukauchi and Nedzu looked up as a red sticky note floated down.

Nedzu picked the note up.

[Whatever you're planning, stop it.

_CERBERUS]

Nedzu grinned even wider.

This will be fun.

Tsukauchi Naomasa is so done with this nonesense.
