People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 849 Each Takes a Step Back

"Ito, you have someone behind you."

Ryuji Goda's voice was calm.

At this moment, Ito Yasuhito finally realized that something was wrong.

His escape was so smooth, it was as if it had been arranged in advance. Now Ryuji Goda says that he has someone behind him. Could it be that this was done intentionally by the Japanese Public Security Bureau?

The Japanese police deliberately let him escape from Kamurocho just to see who he was looking for.

Ito Yasuhito's heart sank.

He quickened his pace and came behind Ryuji Gouda before looking at the place that had originally been behind him.

Sure enough, several figures appeared in their line of sight. It was Kazami Yuya and the members of the Japanese Public Security Squad that Kazami Yuya had brought with him.

We could have hidden ourselves a bit while we were tracking them, but now that we've been discovered, there's no need to anymore.

Besides, now that Ito Yasuhito has found the people of the Omi Alliance, there is no need to stay in hiding any longer. The most urgent task is to take control of the net and catch the fish that have already entered it.

"We are members of the Japanese Public Security Bureau. Please cooperate with our investigation and come with us."

Kazami Yuya stepped forward, took out his Japanese Public Security Bureau membership card from his pocket, and showed it to him, as a formality before the official start of the war.

He knew that these gangsters were all arrogant and would never obediently go back with them, the Japanese public security officers, let alone cooperate with the investigation. A fight was inevitable.

However, even if a fight is inevitable in the end, there must be a procedure to follow, at least the procedure cannot be criticized.

"So they really are members of the Japanese Public Security Bureau...?"

Ito Yasuhito subconsciously took a step back and said in a low voice.

The Japanese Public Security officers were not as easy to shake off as he had imagined. He had thought that the operation that disrupted the police station's cordon would be enough for him to take advantage of the situation, but now he realized that he had been too naive.

The Japanese Public Security Bureau has made it clear they want to arrest people, so what's next...?

"Ito, you take your men and go out first. I'll come back in a bit."

Ryuji Goda said without turning his head.

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise appeared in Ito Yasuhito's eyes.

He didn't know why Ryuji Goda would say such a thing. Did Ryuji Goda, as the president of the Goda Association and a high-ranking member of the Omi Federation, intend to personally cover their retreat and send them out?

Although I had heard of the legendary achievements of Ryuji Goda, the Dragon of Kansai, who was comparable to Kazuma Kiryu, the Dragon of Dojima, I had little contact with him before and did not know what he looked like.

But now it seems that he indeed possesses a magnanimity that is no less than, and may even surpass, that of Kiryu Kazuma!
After a brief pause, Ito Taijin gritted his teeth, waved to several members of the Omi Federation, and immediately led them into the alley to escape first.

Upon seeing this, Kazami Yuya frowned immediately.

He raised his pistol, aimed it at Ito Yasuhito's back, and shouted loudly,

"Don't move! Stop immediately, or we'll open fire!"

At this distance, Ito Yasuhito could hear Kazami Yuya's voice clearly, but he still ran towards the other end of the alley without stopping, showing no intention of slowing down. The reason was simple.

He didn't hear Ryuji Goda tell him to stop, so he figured it wouldn't be a problem if he didn't stop.

This is indeed the case.

Because at the very moment Kazami Yuya made his threat, Goda Ryuji had already stepped in front of the direction Kazami Yuya had been pointing his gun, and said calmly and seriously,

"Let's leave it at that. From now on, Ito will no longer appear in the Tokyo area."

"If I'm not mistaken, the purpose of your Japanese Public Security Bureau's actions this time was to target the Shimano Group of the Tojo Clan, right? Now that Ito has escaped, isn't that a perfect excuse for you to attack Shimano Tai?"

"It would be better for both of us to stop now."

These words made Kazami Yuya feel like laughing.

Are you kidding me? What do you mean by "good for both of us"? The Omi Federation is just a regional yakuza group. What right do they have to negotiate with the Japanese Public Security Bureau? What right do they have to say "good for both of us"? Does the Omi Federation even have that right?

Moreover, if we capture Ito Yasuhito, the Japanese Public Security Bureau can simultaneously crack down on the Omi Federation and the Tojo Clan, the largest yakuza organizations in Kansai and Kanto regions—a tremendous achievement.

No matter which direction they started from, they absolutely did not give up or let Ito Yasuhito go!
Kazami Yuya placed his finger on the trigger of the pistol and said without hesitation,
“Although I don’t know who you are, I’m telling you that if you don’t move aside, my company will consider you to be obstructing our law enforcement. After a warning, I have the right to use live ammunition to fire.”

"This is the last warning. If you don't move aside, I'm going to shoot!"

Ryuji Goda remained motionless, showing no intention of making way.

Upon seeing this, the Japanese Public Security officers exchanged glances, unsure whether to open fire at this moment. After all, while the Japanese Public Security had the right to take illegal actions, the other party had not made any aggressive moves.

Therefore, merely obstructing law enforcement does not seem to meet the criteria for using live ammunition for firing.

Kazami Yuya's expression changed, unsure whether Goda Ryuji understood the workings of the Japanese Public Security Bureau and was therefore certain that he wouldn't use firearms, or whether the other party genuinely had the confidence to fire without fear.

However, he couldn't possibly fire a shot at that moment.

After his threats failed, Kazami Yuya's expression darkened. He strode up to Goda Ryuji, meeting the yakuza's gaze directly. Without hesitation, he placed his hand on Goda Ryuji's shoulder and said...

"Get out of the way! Don't obstruct law enforcement!"

However, the instant Kazami Yuya reached out and put his hand on Goda Ryuji's shoulder, a powerful force instantly acted on Kazami Yuya, causing him to flip over and crash heavily to the ground.

Several Japanese public security officers standing nearby stared wide-eyed at the sight.

How could this be? Even if Kazami Yuya was completely unprepared, he was still an elite police officer in the Japanese Public Security Bureau. How could he be taken down instantly by a member of a yakuza organization?
"I'm sorry, I've already said, please stop here."

Ryuji Goda said calmly.

The next moment, several Japanese public security officers rushed forward, intending to use their numerical advantage to subdue Ryuji Goda and take him back to the Tokyo headquarters of the Japanese Public Security Bureau for interrogation.

However, despite such a display of force, the Kansai Dragon remained calm.

As if he wasn't the one being attacked at that moment, he simply moved his body slightly before assuming a fighting stance.
