Looking up, Biru wiped the mud off of his face and smiled. FOR HE HAD SUCCEEDED IN HIS GOAL. "I'VE GOT YO-WAIT NO DON'T ESCAPE." Biru triumphantly proclaimed before scrambling to prevent his device from escaping from the net. Barely succeeding in stopping the semisentient jumping thing from escaping, Biru gripped the net in order to give it less room to move around. Getting back on his feet, Biru happily walked back towards his store, having been successful in his search (and its rather anticlimactic ending). Meeting up with Yuzuki a few feet from the puddle of mud, Biru happily displayed his catch to the shinigami. "No need to worry. I managed to find it after all. Gave me quite a scare when I saw that it had escaped too." Biru cheerfully stated as he continued back on his trek to his store. Sure he would have more laundry to do later on but better that then to lose one of his precious creations to the cruel scary world.
Now if Raiu and Nero decided to trespass into Biru's store in a search for a back exit, they would first have to start by going through the mysterious and surprisingly sturdy (and heavy) door that was behind (though a few feet away from) the counter. Should they pass through they would then enter a second room. Within this room they would find a staircase and a second door just as large and heavy and mysterious as the first (maybe even more so). And should either of them decide to pass through that door they would enter...BIRU'S LAB. DUN DUN DUNNNNNN. Although if one did want to be more precise this was one of Biru's labs. As Biru had a few other labs and work stations connected to his store (most of them being underground).
But nevertheless it would still be an impressive sight for most guests should anyone visit his lab. As there were beakers and test tubes and boiling liquids of different colors and gears and tools and a work table and half created metallic skeletons and various shapes and charts and graphs and various papers with lots of complex looking formulas on it and various other creations or prototypes of Biru's which would provoke wonder and curiosity (it may have also been slightly bigger on the inside). But most of all, within this sanctum of experimentation THERE WAS SCIENCE (and possibly two trespassers who had decided to enter without Biru's permission or any type of safety equipment).

Yuzuki, who had not come away from the door too far, stepped aside as Biru approached, both to let him in and to move away from the mud covered object and the man who held it; she wasn't one to get dirty without cause. Of course, she trotted back inside behind Biru, attempting to get a proper look at what was in the net given that she had not seen any concrete features because of the sludge. Despite her curiosity, Yuzuki's gaze did shift upon reentering from the object in question to where she had left her sister. It was more habit than anything else, though the habit had formed for a reason; Raiu was as slippery as an eel.

Cabin boy, eh? Let's see if she's ready for The Hazard, Nero mused, completely delighted at the chance that Raiu had unknowingly given to him. She seemed to be rather energetic and imaginative, but most of all outgoing and outspoken; the perfect formula to spread his name, even if it was only through passing.
A large smile threatened to split Nero's face open as he listened and chuckled inwardly; black-mail? An interesting concept, if he weren't the mischievous scholar that he was!
"I have heard tales of the dread pirate queen Raiu," he mused, glancing at the front door before turning to what he presumed was the back calculating mind still active. "But to blackmail The Hazard, I'm impressed," Nero gave the girl a partial truth along with a dramatic bow; she didn't know of his, peculiar reputation and ways but at the same time, it was unlikely she would anyway.
Speaking of the girl, her sister and the scientist would be back within seconds to a minute, not much time for a grand escape, but Nero had other ideas that centered around mischief. "Shame we haven't met before cap'n Raiu, such a shame~" he sighed, making sure he was lined up with the back door while glancing at the front door just behind Raiu (he presumed at least).
She could try to bolt, try... but Nero was putting money on her curiosity. After all, if she was as rambunctious as he presumed and eager to adventure so to speak, then the idea that there was someone who could provide more fun and be an accomplice could momentarily slow her down. "Though perhaps that's what your first mate wanted..." he mused aloud, trailing off while eyeing the door, anticipating the return of the other two.

Raiu eyed 'the Hazard', biting her lip as she mulled over his words. Silence hung in the air for a few moments after his musings and flattery, as she noticed his movements and attention to the his positioning in the shop.
"Argh, tis naught but lip service, worthy adversary! But ye have peaked my interest ser, tis a rare thing! I give ya credit for that. Yer no cabin boy, thats for sure."
"So, tell me, Hazard, how'd ya get the name?" She crossed her arms, now content to stay put for the tale. Of course, if he was boring, she'd have to find her own entertainment, which would probably go poorly for all. Escape perhaps would no longer come to fruition, but she might get a good story out of him, at least.

Beginning to hum a cheerful tune, Biru wiped his feet on the mat in front of his store, in order to get some of the mud off. Entering back into his store, Biru heard Raiu ask Nero about his nickname. Wondering what kind of nickname hazard was, Biru briefly wondered whether it was a good idea for someone with such a nickname to be in a relatively close proximity to a lab which had a habit of exploding due to one mishap or another on a regular basis. Giving a mental shrug, Biru thought to himself "What could possibly go wrong?" as he usually did (coincidentally a number of things would usually then go wrong). HOWEVER RIGHT NOW BIRU WAS TOO HAPPY WITH HIS GLORIOUS VICTORY.
But first Biru needed to clean himself off. "If all of you aren't leaving just yet. Could you keep a watch on things for a few minutes? I need to get cleaned off." Biru asked. Without waiting for an affirmative, Biru then went...INTO HIS LABORATORY OF SCIENCE. Humming his cheerful tune some more, Biru kept a hold of his net and the catch within it and went into a peculiar capsule that was in one of the corners of the lab. Closing the door to the capsule and pulling on the chain within to activate his CLEANER OF SCIENCE, Biru would soon emerge a minute later with COMPLETELY CLEAN CLOTHES AND HIS NET NOT COVERED IN MUD. Taking note that his clothes even felt a bit warm (and smelled of mint), Biru then strolled back into the other room continuing to hum as he did so. It wasn't as if something horrifying could happen in the two and a half minutes that he was gone. Right? RIGHT?!!!!

The glimpses that Yuzuki managed to catch of the semi-sentient jumping device, as Biru had called it, while it was muddy and caught up in a net just left her more confused as to what it really looked like. It was bizarre and unlike anything Yuzuki was accustomed to, almost foreign in nature. Seeing that her sister was well and entertained, at least for the moment, by Nero, the older of the two hastened her steps behind the shopkeeper so she again could contemplate the object.
Unfortunately, Biru had other plans. "But w-wait," Yuzuki said too late in reply to his request to keep an eye on things. The one thing she did want to keep an eye on, he had taken with her. Not to mention that she had other plans for the day. She wasn't worried that the tailor would be out of the type of prints Raiu tended to lean toward, but rather the walk back home. Coming out to the Third District was time consuming for one of her capabilities and Yuzuki wanted to be home before dark settled over the Rukongai, which by night, was more dangerous than during the day and given how unsafe it was during the latter...
Yuzuki mused over what horrible things could happen to her, not to mention Raiu, in the dead of night beyond the walls of the white city and repressed a shudder. She was saved from any truly morbid thoughts by the rather prompt reappearance of Biru. "That was quick," she observed aloud then asked, "What is that thing?"

Lip service that kept you in the store nonetheless, and victory to me~ he thought with an honest true grin on his lips, already adding the return of Raiu’s sister and Biru to the ever-constant calculation in his head. Nero had the ideal formula already figured out to keep Raiu interested and himself entertained; keep the story simple, do not give out boring details, and keep it as he recalled it.
Thankfully, it was an event he burned into his memory. And he had been a child at the time, educated privately by his mother primarily but it didn’t mean he thought in an expanded vocabulary as a munchkin.
“I tripped and dropped my candle, right into a wagon filled with fireworks,” he happily chirped, head cocked slightly to the side. The bright smile on his face was enough to probably blind someone, figuratively anyway. Ironically, it was completely honest as the memories came to him with each word given.
“Of course, this happened to be during the end of the year festival in my neighborhood,” In truth, it was the real reason it even occurred; everyone was there that could make it. Thus when the Hazard Incident occurred, everyone and their family witnessed it. “The fireworks went this way and that, into vendors, booths, even a small outdoor kitchen! I actually got a few burns because I was so close to the wagon, but it was worth it.”
A wistful, nostalgic sigh escaped his lips. “It was beautiful really, so many things were happening all at once, and I was no bigger than you back then. I knew everyone was panicking and freaking out because of what I did, but I never expected to do so much with just one little candle and a trip,” he admitted, pausing to lick his lips and actually broke out into a lopsided grin.
“It lasted for an entire hour, and by then, I was smiling like I am now, amazed at what I did. Even when the neighborhood watch picked me up and brought me to my parents, looking like they wanted to bury me in ripe fruit and vegetables for a month,” he snickered, finally coming to a lull. Not for the sake of allowing Raiu to soak up the story, but merely to allow his own mind to reflect on the event itself; the significance of what he created with a simple act, a few calculations, and a simple desire itself.
Though idly, he barely registered the presence of all but Raiu, only due to her proximity. He didn’t put much of a priority on their return; it was bound to happen, though there was a slight bright spot in his mind.
Biru had brought back something interesting, rather, the little interesting invention he had apparently lost earlier. Slowly, a mischievous spark crackled in the front of Nero’s mind as he thought about giving a little display of his moniker’s full meaning. Tempting, awfully tempting, but then I lose the potential for a client- and alas, I still need to get back to my uncle with the receipt, Nero recalled reluctantly. So much to do, so much to consider, so little time as the saying went…

Listening in on the interesting story, Raiu tried to picture what it would be like to set off an entire wagon full of fireworks. Not quite being able to picture such a commotion, but understanding the chaos it caused, she could imagine why he earned the moniker 'The Hazard'.
"So are ya still accident prone these days?" she eyed him, curious to see if his name held true over the years, or if it was a simple childhood legend that no longer applied to the adult.
As for her sister and Biru, Raiu faintly registered their re-entrance, only really paying attention when Biru spoke. She did not see what Biru had with him, either.
It was a shame, she lost her chance to escape! Ah well..

Coming back out in time to part of Nero's story, Biru only paid a bit of attention to it when Yuzuki spoke. "All thanks to one of my inventions." Biru said with a satisfied smile. It was always nice to impress people with his inventions. Or in this case the result of his invention. As he made his way back behind the counter, Biru perked up a bit at Yuzuki's question about his SEMISENTIENT JUMPING THING OF SCIENCE. Putting a finger up to indicate to Yuzuki to give him a minute which was then followed by a motion to Nero to signal to her that he didn't want to interrupt, Biru gave Nero enough time to finish his story.
"He seems a bit too happy about causing explosions." Biru reflected to himself, despite the fact that he caused explosions on a daily basis. Not to mention the fact that Biru would happily analyze different aspects of the explosions and what led up to them (he even had a little chart based on how the explosions looked, smelled like and sounded like). However this hypocrisy went unnoticed by Biru who instead felt a bit uncomfortable with Nero's apparent fondness for explosions, the slight smile on his face and the fact that he was in a place with lots of volatile chemicals in the back.
However when Raiu asked Nero another question, Biru saw that they were involved in their own conversation so Biru really wouldn't be interrupting them. "Sorry about that. Was worried that I might interrupt them." Biru said as he faced Yuzuki. "So right back to your question. This invention of mine is a semisentient jumping thing." Biru said to Yuzuki. Taking the device out of the net and holding it up, Biru then chided his own invention by saying, "And he is also a very naughty semisentient jumping thing." Taking out a container from under the counter with his free hand, Biru placed the device into the container. "There we go. He won't be able to escape again any time soon." Biru thought aloud.

Yuzuki's interest in Biru's invention had confined her focus solely to him, so that when he gestured a pause in his explanation, Yuzuki fully turned her head to see why, only then realizing that Nero was speaking. When she had reentered, Raiu being present had been the only thing which had mattered aside from her own curiosity, but because of Biru's hesitation, she managed to catch the tail end of Nero's story and her sister's question. It garnered a quirked brow, but her attention was immediately pulled back to the scientist.
"But what is its purpose," she questioned after Biru gave a brief explanation. Most people that she knew who dabbled in creating things outside of an artistic perspective had a reason for their inventions. This thing seemed only good for causing trouble. Granted, if Yuzuki had a shop and a creation like that, she'd probably tether it outside to draw customers inside. All Biru seemed to be doing with it was putting it away. Or maybe he just didn't want to tell her what it really did. Maybe it was some sort of super weapon. Yuzuki's other brow rose up to meet its counterpart as her natural overly defensive side took hold and she took a step back and slightly to the side, placing herself between Biru and her sister.

Nero's eyes flashed figuratively with thousands of figures and factors going through his mind before the equation ended. This Biru fellow was certainly someone interesting, an inventor of a machine, semi-sentient- now that was something worth noting. He needed time to organize his thoughts, and to earn some more money first before he made any plans.
His mouth parted and lips twisted up in a rather amused smile. "I can manage the accidents, but I like to call them little bouts of mayhem," he playfully mused, with a heavy pound of honesty. Clumsiness on the physical level was still very much a part of Nero but he had long since adapted to it and knew what to do in those moments. Not that it always panned out like he hoped but that was nature and life: no amount of calculations could completely predict an outcome without fail.
"And not really prone when I try to make a trip into a half-hour of clean-up and explanations," he admitted. Now that was a fun day, after he had finally managed to lose his tail. Ironically, that was achieved through a slip and a trip into some trash. But it worked, nonetheless.

Of course the word 'naughty' caught Raiu's attention. As Biru was speaking to her sister, the all too familiar word drifted over to Raiu's ear, causing her to turn her head to see what they were talking about. She looked just in time to see Biru holding the 'thing' up, and Raiu's eyes widened with interest.
"WOW! WHATS THAT MISTER?!" she exploded, galloping over to the counter to peer up at the funny invention that was now contained on the counter. (Is it in a clear case or hidden from sight?) Normally, she would have stuck by Nero, trading war stories and talking about mayhem, oh how she loved that, but she did have the attention span of a gnat at times...
Her grubby little paws would reach up to the counter to lift up the container lid (assuming its a lid or maybe some kind of upside down bowl?) to really get a peek at the contents. Of course, her sister or Biru could stop her, being right there, or they might just miss it, since Raiu would go for the invention as soon as she asked her question, thus potentially unleashing Biru's captured quarry.
Note: Too lazy to code <3

Placing the clear container on the counter as he prepared to answer Yuzuki's question, Biru had no idea that she knew the COMPLETELY FICTITIOUS TRUTH ABOUT THE SUPER WEAPON. While technically the device was harmless it's many misadventures had caused much trouble for Biru (not to mention the odd explosion or two due to spilling a few beakers). So she was technically correct in the small yet harmless device being A NIGHTMARISH ENGINE OF MAYHEM.
However just as Biru opened his mouth to discuss the various possible reasons for making such a device he was cut off by Raiu's question. Smiling at the young lady Biru then answered her question by saying, "Why that is a semisentient jumping thing." However as Raiu attempted to open the container and unleash the NIGHTMARISH ENGINE OF DESTRUCTION that was contained within it, she would find herself blocked by YET ANOTHER HANDY DANDY INVENTION OF BIRU'S. Calling it a CHILD LOCK OF SCIENCE, Raiu would find that the cap wouldn't budge as she tried to lift it up. FOR THE TRUE TRICK WAS TO PUSH DOWN ON THE CAP THEN TWIST IT. However Raiu would have no idea about that (Biru often forgot too) and it would give Biru the few seconds that he would need to process Raiu's attempt at unleashing THE SUPER ENGINE OF DOOM from it's prison. "Excuse me, but would you please stop trying to open that. I would rather not have it escape again." Biru said to Raiu. Of course assuming Raiu cooperated, Biru would have had no problems letting the girl hold onto the container so she could look at the device.
"Right, so about it's purpose." Biru said to Yuzuki now that Raiu was (hopefully) busy enough to not interrupt. "To tell you the truth when I first began to design it, I honestly had no purpose in mind for it. I just figured that it would be interesting to make. But now that I think about it, you could say that its a good demonstration of a number of scientific principles. There's kinematics in the way that it moves for example. Also it's a good application of mechanical engineering in general. So really its more of an example of what you can do by applying a few principles. Plus I think it makes a good toy." Biru said to Yuzuki. In fact a lot of people would be surprised at some of the inventions Biru had designed just for the sake of designing them.

There was a sudden inhale of air as Raiu came into contact with the container followed by, "RAI-" And then Yuzuki saw that the container was sealed somehow and the older of the two exhaled a relieved, "Uuu," though her tone still bordered on exasperation. As calm as she was on a normal basis, there was always something to worry or fret with over her sister. Even now Yuzuki was taken back to the days where the most common of events included tattling on Raiu to her mother because Yuzuki couldn't handle her.
Yuzuki's head dropped slightly and she muttered something about needing to learn Bakudou, though her words were likely drowned out by Biru's explanation of his invention which only warranted a tired, "I see," from the red head who had gathered herself enough to approach Raiu from behind so that she could hopefully place her hands on her shoulders. Yuzuki hoped the energetic child would stay still long enough to let her do it so that she could steer her out of the shop, but she would settle for making contact at this point.

Nero simply followed after little Raiu, not at all surprised by the girl's attention span. She was small and he had enough experience with his young cousins to know about the attention span of the small in stature. It didn't hurt either that all the attention and conversation was shifting to Biru's little machine, and Nero merely went with the flow.
This time anyway.
Doesn't mean it won't escape again, especially if you don't intervene, Nero thought, and merely watched with mild interest for a few seconds before glancing at Yuzuki and then Raiu. Just for a moment for figures and numbers to flash through his mind and a few equations to finish and promptly began walking to the door.
And time for this delivery boy to exit stage left and get his pay-check, he did not however, assume that whatever it was that kept Raiu from opening the container would do so forever. Frankly, Nero didn't put much up to chance which was simply how bad he might hurt himself with a simple trip or a fall.
And given how long he had been in the shop, Nero was probably long overdue for a clumsy moment.

Raiu grunted and struggled with the container, finding it impervious to her attempts at yanking it open. Blast Biru's ingenious child lock! She would not manage to open the container, and after being chastised by Biru, and her sister (Raiu knew that Tone), the little girl would give them both a petulant pout.
The thing was neat, oh yes indeedy, and she looked around to show the Hazard, but he was meandering toward the door. Just as her sister's hands eased onto her shoulders, Raiu's gaze returned to the gizmo, then back to Biru.
"So what does it DO?" she asked bluntly, as his long-winded explanation really didn't Explain anything to her.
The hands on the shoulders bit meant her sister was probably going to attempt to either guide her out of the shop of mysteries, or at least keep her in place. Bah, to be captured! At this moment, Raiu wished she knew some magical escape kido.

Luckily for Biru, his CHILD LOCK OF SCIENCE had succeeded in keeping the JUMPING NIGHTMARISH ENGINE OF DESTRUCTION sealed within it's container. After all it would be disastrous if the device was able to roam free again. There would be no end to the possible explosions that it could cause as it jumped about if it was not properly contained BY SCIENCE.
Oblivious to the lack of interest that both Yuzuki and Nero seemed to express as he gave his explanation for how the device worked, Biru would soon focus on answering Raiu's question. However before he began, Biru faced Nero as he walked toward the door and said with a wave, "Thank you for the delivery. Have a nice day."
Having wished the young delivery boy a nice day, Biru was now able to focus on SPREADING SCIENCE...by answering Raiu's question. "Right so there are a few things that it does. First off as I said it demonstrates what you can do by applying a few basic principles of nature. Though I did name it a semisentient jumping thing as that is a good way to describe what it is. It's able to tell when it's up against a wall and change the way it jumps so it won't hit said wall, hence it's semisentient. It jumps around, hence the jumping. Plus it's all...thingy and shaped weird, thus I call it a thing too. So put it all together and you get a semisentinet jumping thing." Biru said in order to answer Raiu's query. Hopefully Biru had now educated the young lady and had inspired her WITH SCIENCE. Though it was equally likely that no one except for Biru had any idea what he was talking about (that happened quite often. In fact Biru was thinking of finding some sort of speech instructor so he could actually make sense every now and then).

"It jumps," Yuzuki said, shortening down Biru's secondary explanation even further for her sister. As well as Raiu had known her sister's tone, Yuzuki knew Raiu's patience and concentration levels. A gentle force now backed the hand on the smaller girl's shoulder, attempting to guide her in the same direction as Nero was heading. "Thank you for taking the time to explain your... interesting invention, Biru-san, but we should really get going. We still have to stop by the tailor and if we want to get a snack before heading home before it gets too dark, then we have to leave soon." Again Yuzuki dangled bribery over Raiu like a carrot before a mule. A stubborn sugar fueled mule.

Hearing the conversation shift thanks to Yuzuki, Nero took the chance to turn and see what was going on. It clearly sounded like the sisters were on their way out and he thought it best to save the two any delays by holding the door open for them. Well, that and he didn't want to trip or slip in mid door opening.
Unfortunately, it didn't mean his entire body was aware of that as he felt one ankle bump into the brother.
Oh crap! Nero swore as he tripped and saw himself head straight for the door. It took only a few seconds as calculations exploded like bombs followed by immediate action as he leaned into the fall before Nero crashed into the doorway, forehead first.
"Ouch," he grumbled, already feeling pain itching at his forehead. Thankfully, he had leaned into the fall and managed to close the distance with it enough to avoid smashing nose first into the ground. He knew if he did there'd be a bloody nose as a result and though his head ached Nero had a thick enough skull.
Whether or not his mother's reasoning was a genetic trait of some kind was true didn't quite mean much beyond dealing with a slight headache over a bloody nose. "Definitely time for me to go, ow," he mumbled.

"CANDY!" exploded the joy from Raiu's mouth. Toy forgotten, the promise of sticky, sweet treats was much more interesting at the moment. Even the crashing did not distract her; truth be told, she was growing bored.
"C'mon sissy" she whined, looking up at her sister as if it was the elder's fault they were still there. Silly little creature.

Giving an internal sigh at the simplification that Yuzuki made about his DEVICE OF SCIENCE, Biru decided that he may as well let the explanation stand. For soon the MANY COMPLICATED REASONS OF SCIENCE would descend upon them and when it clicked into place they would gain a greater understanding of the world and not just forget about it a few minutes later. However as the two were heading out to leave, Biru came to a HORRIFYING REALIZATION. THE TWO SHINIGAMI HAD FORGOTTEN TO GIVE HIM BACK HIS DEVICE! What if the two were in fact master thieves. Not only that but they were stealing the devices, undoubtedly to further some OTHER mad scientist's doomsday device OF DOOM. A mad scientist who would steal Biru's work and not even credit him in the research papers.
However after a quick burst of common sense (an extremely rare event for the scientist), Biru instead said, "Uhhh excuse me? May I please get my container and semisentient jumping thing back?" Perhaps this would remind them that they had forgotten to give his device back (and if they did happen to be master thieves then it would stop their EVIL AND NEFARIOUS PLOT).
Noticing the Nero fall and hit his head, Biru then asked the man, "Excuse me but are you alright?" While the boy was able to get up that wasn't a complete guarantee that he was alright.

Even with the excitement of the crash, Yuzuki caught what Biru said. Reaching deftly with her free hand as the other still ushered her sister forward, Yuzuki plucked the contained contraption from Raiu's grasp and set it on a table to her left without looking back. She did however take the time to peer at Nero before opening the door. Seeing he was relatively uninjured the medic said, "You should probably put some ice on your head to prevent swelling." Then she swept outside with her sibling.

"I'm fine, worse has happened to me," Nero assured Biru, with complete honesty and a lopsided smile. He wasn't very old but growing up clumsy had made him a bit resilient mentally to the trips, falls, crashes, and most humorous, awkward collisions with others.
Those in particular were fun for a young child growing up to be a scholar. Then again, the Calder family was peculiar anyway, and that was counting the in-laws no less!
"Thanks, see you around!" the young scholar made a quick mental note to look up the Yuzuki name and find out what weight it carried if any as he waved to Biru and carefully slipped out the door.
That is, he would research once he picked up his paycheck and got some ice for his head. Nero had much to do and perhaps with the money he could finally get something to protect his forehead. That or some sturdy gloves, whichever appealed to the teenager first.
Or rather, The Hazard...

Giving a small sigh of relief when Nero confirmed that he was okay, Biru was glad to hear the news. "I would still follow her advice." Biru said to Nero. Afterall it was good advice and it was better to be safe than sorry...although perhaps the young delivery boy would want to try out Biru's new and improved poultice formula. Most of the side effects should have been gone by now (though a few odd ones did pop up now and then). However before Biru could continue on that train of thought it was violently derailed when Nero gave a goodbye and left. Smiling and giving a quick wave goodbye as he now found his shop to be empty, Biru then remembered that he forgot to ask Nero if he would want to test the poultice OF SCIENCE. Giving a shrug of his shoulders, Biru knew there would be other opportunities to test his devices on people.
"At least I found my escapee." Biru said moments before he realized that the jar with the semi-sentient jumping thing was not in fact a jar with a semi-sentient jumping thing but a jar of air. Hearing the sound of the device as he began to wander away, Biru scrambled for his net so he could try and catch the sneaky device before it could completely evade him again. AND THUS BIRU'S HUNT OF SCIENCE WOULD RESUME AGAIN.
