Masuda

A crooked town administrator with a gambling problem, Masuda used his influence with the police to pay his gambling debts, keeping police away from rich areas so they could be burgled by his Yakuza acquaintances.

The magistrate of the town put pressure on Masuda to stop the crime wave, forcing him to find a scapegoat. Masuda chooses noodles, the udon seller and has him crucified. However, the Yakuza also pressure him and over the next few days, it becomes clear to the magistrate that the wrong person was killed. Usagi and Kitsune form an alliance to prove the guilt of the administrator and he is subsequently arrested and ordered to commit seppuku.
