    Summary

    Kiryu is on a job in Sapporo and runs into someone he wasn't expecting. Shenanigans ensue.

    ***

    Majima took his elbows off the table and slammed it with his palm, making the beer cans and the ashtray jump, laughing maniacally.

    “There's no way I'm comin' all the way out to this backwoods town without even tryin' to find my favorite dragon!”

    “Speaking of that,” Kiryu said weakly, “How exactly did you find me?”

    Majima's grin broadened. “Nah-ah, Kiryu-chan,” he wiggled his finger. “A guy can't go 'round revealin' his sources. Let's just say a little bird told me 'bout an apartment that the Dojima family had in Sapporo. Decided to check it out. Secured a spot in that cafe on the corner and waited for ya to show up. Honin' my detective skills.”

    “So when you saw me coming,” Kiryu said slowly, trying to comprehend. “You climbed up on that roof like a cat and jumped me?”

    Majima hee-hee-heed in response. “Ya gotta have that element of surprise in your life, Kiryu-chan. Otherwise, it's just plain borin’!”

    Kiryu looked at him incredulously. Rumor had it that Majima was batshit crazy. He was starting to believe it.

    Summary

    In these rare moments of quiet, when Kiryu was left on his own with nothing ahead and nothing behind, his mind always strayed to the same thought like an animal licking a wound.

    What was he doing?

    (Kiryu's accumulated a bit too much heat from the cops and is forced to skip town for a while. Luckily his caring superior Majima is around to help him pass the time.)

    Summary

    Haruka Sawamura is a woman on a mission with a family to provide for.

    Kazuma Kiryu has been dead for six years, and in that time, Haruka Sawamura has taken over the Morning Glory orphanage, following in his footsteps by taking on a new generation of orphans. After the death of her husband, she journeys alone to the Isezaki Ijincho ward of Yokohama to locate a businessman by the name of Ichiban Kasuga so that she can secure funding for the future of the orphanage.

    When she arrives, however, she finds that Kasuga is nowhere to be found, and what's worse, one of the city's largest criminal factions seems to want her dead. But Haruka is a difficult woman to scare off. Determined to provide a better future for the orphans and for her own son, Haruka proceeds undeterred, and soon finds herself knee-deep in a criminal conspiracy that spans the whole of Japan and threatens the wellbeing of her entire family. With the help of some new friends made along the way, as well as some old faces from her past, she tries to get to the bottom of it all - and makes a shocking discovery relating to the truth behind Kiryu's death.

    A "what-if" story set between Yakuza: Like A Dragon and Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth.
