VS will find it on WorldTracer, not their own system.
If you were reliant on the final carrier having a record of your lost bag, not many lost interline bags would ever be found. (The problem is usually that the final carrier never received notice it was supposed to receive and deliver the bag.)
Maybe VS will notice it wasn’t interlined to them, maybe VS will find the ticketing information from the bag and figure out it was two tickets, maybe VS will find the PNRs to figure out whether there was no irrops to justify offline forwarding, maybe VS will notice that BA has a policy of not forwarding interline bags across tickets. Or maybe not.
