Summary
Saemon Heibu, the owner of the audio equipment manufacturing plant, loses all his property to scammers. Later, Rei approaches Saemon and asks him about his situation. Saemon tells him that his company developed a groundbreaking technology but the lack of funding forced him to take a loan. Moneylanders wouldn't work with Saemon but he was suddenly approached by the Small Business Relief Association who offered him the 100 million yen loan but scammed him and ran away with his money.

Rei tells Saemon that he's the only one at fault for falling for a scam but offers his help to get Saemon's money back. Saemon is hesitant to trust Rei, fearing that he might scam him as well but Rei reassures him that he will get this done. Rei tracks down a group of swindlers, led by the lawyer Kokonoe and confronts them. He takes a guess that Kokonoe's plan was to buy Saemon's factory and make a profit out of it, since the government was interested in the land the factory is on.

Kokonoe takes a gun in an attempt to kill Rei but he uses his Hypnosis Mic to take Kokonoe down. He returns the stolen money to Saemon and asks him for an access to his prototype bluprints as a thanks.

Later, Rei contacts Otome and informs her that his plan was successfull. Rei tells her that he was the one who tipped Kokonoe and his men about Saemon's property, just to play his role as a hero for Saemon and get the access to the blueprints. Otome concludes that with Saemon's technology they will succeed in developing the Hypnosis Canceller and tells Rei to get back to his job. While staying in Osaka, Rei watches the announcement of Dotsuitare Hompo's sudden disbandment.
