They were likely colluding with Hayama or hired by Tozawa
Tokyo Viceseason 2 has made its two antagonist very light in Tozawa and Hayama , two aggressive and power - hungry yazuka bosses . After six undischarged episodes , the most obvious signs orient to Tozawa ordering Shinjiro to take out Ishida . The fain alibi is an intentional giveaway that either makes it obvious to the audience that Tozawa had planned the smasher , or it could be used as a distraction from the other plausible option , Hayama .
It ’s sure fair to reckon that the reckless Hayama could shop Ishida to become the new Chihara - Kai Oyabun . In fact , he had set up Sato ’s brother Kaito on a suicide mission to take out Tozawa , sowhy would n’t he essay a like manoeuvre to take out Ishida knowing that everyone would arrogate it was Tozawa?Katagiri implies Hayama ’s amour during his sojourn to the Chihara - Kai watch over Ishida ’s decease . Whatever Shinjiro knows and is uncoerced to recite Katagiri will bring out who is rightfully behind Ishida ’s death inTokyo Viceseason 2 .
