After losing his job, he worked for a system finance company through a friend. He says that he did everything from telemarketing to check-cashing business.After the betrayal, Yusuke was once again left alone, but four months later, he was personally contacted by Chairman Nishikawa, who told him to come back. The reason was that the group’s management had suddenly taken a turn for the worse. From then on, he worked feverishly to make up for the time he had lost.   Then there was an incident in which he was called out by a group of delinquent foreigners for a flirtation he had no recollection of. The boss was a man named Yair, Yusuke’s senior. The situation could have developed into a war between the groups, but things took an unexpected turn. Yusuke, who had gone to the other group’s headquarters all by himself, was said to have been so gutsy that Yair asked him if he would like to become a brother. “I replied, “Yeah, that’s a good idea.” Yair prepared a shot glass that would serve as a sake cup and began pouring tequila. I thought we were going to toast, but Yair took out a knife and began to drip blood from his thumb, the tip of which was attached to the blade, into my glass.” After pouring the blood into each other’s glasses, they drank the red, cloudy tequila and exchanged a brotherly bond. Then the drinking party began, mobilizing all of each other’s groups. The party went on until late at night. Business was smooth sailing; at the age of 24, he opened a bar in the middle of Minami. However, the footsteps of doom were gradually but steadily approaching. It all started with a trivial quarrel. But when about 10 police officers heard the commotion and came to subdue him, he blew one of them away. “Obstruction of justice!” Hearing these words, Yusuke said he ran away in a panic. His friends said, “Yusuke, there are dozens of police heading your way right now! Get out of there now!”  Without knowing what to expect, he got into a cab and just as he told the driver where he was going, he was surrounded by police officers. As many as 50 police officers had gathered at the scene. Yusuke was arrested on the spot. Once again, he lost everything. Marriage, imprisonment, and an appearance on NHK. How is he now that he has left Minami?
