Kazuma Kiryu is far away from Okinawa and Haruka, hiding out in Fukuoka under when Yakuza 5 begins. The Yakuza lead character spends his days working as a taxi driver and he lives with Mayumi.
Mayumi is a woman with a mysterious past living under an alias. She works in a cabaret club called Oliver and is the number one lady there. While initially reluctant, a lonely Kazuma lets Mayumi stay with him. Mayumi cares for Kazuma and never asks about his past. Soon, Kazuma settles into a routine and finds new meaning in his life with Mayumi. On a certain day in December 2012, Mayumi reveals her true feelings to Kazuma.
