Although Yahiko was agitated, he dared not oppose the police's order. 4
He was a businessman after all. He knew very well that if he was involved in an international diplomatic crisis that affected Japan's international reputation, the Japanese people would definitely see him as a sinner who had tarnished Japan's image. 4
If that happened, the people would spontaneously boycott the Ito family, which might turn the Ito family into a target of public criticism. 1
In that case, it would be better to cooperate actively and clear some ties while he was at it.
Hence, Yahiko got up from the bed reluctantly, got changed, and opened the door. 2
He was annoyed, but he understood the stakes involved. 2
Either way, he hadn’t done anything wrong. So what if he was brought to the police department for another round of questioning? He didn't even mind staying there for a few days. 5
Therefore, he urged Hiroshi, "Start the car, we'll leave i n a minute!" 4
Hiroshi nodded, turned around, and went to make the necessary arrangements.
A few minutes later, Yahiko got into his car escorted b y several bodyguards and two ninjas and headed to the Tokyo Police Department.
Meanwhile, Matsumoto Yoshito was on standby with the Iga ninjas and the rest of his men. He planned to use the same trick to find a suitable location to kill Yahiko on his way to the police station. 3
Now that Machi was dead, he would be the most powerful man in Tokyo and Japan if he successfully eliminated Yahiko as well. 2
However, he didn't know that the Schulz family's men had already surrounded his residence at this moment. The leader of the group was not in a hurry to attack with his men. Instead, he began to formulate a strategy based on the actual situation of the Matsumoto residence, hoping to wipe out the entire family in one go. 2
According to Sheldon’s temperament, if Yoshito wanted to kill his son and daughter, he would not just kill Yoshito.
