Duanmu Huai was true to his word; after leaving the construction site, he headed to the requisitioned area to begin his investigation.
As for the situation in this area, Tezuka Renichi had already briefed Duanmu Huai. Yangchen Town was divided into the new district and the old district, with the old district being the center from long ago. The new district was rebuilt after entering the modern era. Separated by a river, the majority of Yangchen Town's population now resides in the new district, leaving less than eight hundred people in the old district.
This is also why the area was chosen for development.
Though Duanmu Huai disapproved of the Yakuza's forced land seizure tactics, upon reaching the old district, he felt that leveling this place... might not be such a bad thing.
