In 2012, in the middle of a performance as an idol, [[Haruka Sawamura]] told a televised audience that the man that raised her, and who she views as her father, was a former yakuza named Kazuma Kiryu. Haruka left the stage, arrived in Kamurocho, and found Kiryu dying on the street. She got him to the hospital, but when he woke up he was arrested for the violence committed by the Omi Alliance and the Tojo Clan so that the Tokyo police could claim a victory by arresting someone who was considered a legendary yakuza.

She got him to the hospital, but when he woke up he was arrested for the property damage and violence committed by the Omi Alliance and the Tojo Clan so that the Tokyo police could claim a victory by arresting someone who was considered a legendary yakuza.


Kiryu was voluntarily sent to prison, as he didn't want to cause the orphans at the orphanage he ran, Morning Glory, any trouble. Out of the idol business, Haruka tried to go back to the orphanage and her normal life. However, she decided to leave once she saw a tabloid article that claimed that her presence was proof that the orphanage was a front for the Yakuza.
Kiryu was voluntarily sent to prison, as he didn't want to cause the orphans at the Okinawa orphanage he ran, Morning Glory, any trouble. Out of the idol business, Haruka returned to the orphanage and tried to resume her normal life. Six months later, she visited Kiryu in prison in Tokyo and learned that he could make parole in three years.  


In 2016, Kiryu was released from prison, traveled to the orphanage, and learned that Haruka had left and had never returned. He was told by the orphans that she had gone to Kamurocho to be with him.
Haruka returned to the orphanage in Okinawa. However, she decided to leave once she saw a tabloid article that falsely claimed that her presence was proof that the orphanage was a front for the Yakuza.


Kiryu arrives in Kamurocho and tries to find information about Hakura from the mama, or manager, of New Serena. When she didn't have any information, he decided to ask [[Shun Akiyama]]. However, Kiryu discovers that Akiyama closed his loan office, Sky Finance. After asking people if they knew where Akiyama went, he discovers that he is in the sewer system.
With nowhere else to go, Haruka takes a boat to Onomichi in Hiroshima. The townspeople there immediately know who she is, but since they can tell she is actually a sweet girl, they are kind enough to not let on.


Disguised, and once again a bum, Akiyama tells Kiryu that he had not seen Haruka. The two learn that an officer of the Saio Triad, Ed, followed Kiryu. He was after Akiyama because his loan office cut into the Triad's own profits. The two defeat Ed and the Triad members that were his backup and leave the sewer since Akiyama's disguise would no longer work.
In 2014, she witnesses Yuta Usami of the Hirose Family, a second-tier yakuza group within the Yomei Alliance, beating a man with a camera. Yuta reveals that he was a paparazzi stalking her, which let him know that he knew her identity but also that he cared for her. After sleeping together a single time, Haruka and Yuta conceive a son together.  


Kiryu received a phone call from his detective friend, Makoto Date. Haruka had been in a car accident and may never wake from a coma. He also learns that she had protected a baby boy when she was hit, who was revealed to be her son, Haruto Sawamura.  
Shu Tatsukawa and Koji Masuzoe learn that Haruka is pregnant and try to convince her to have an abortion, which lets Haruka know that Yuta is the second in line of ascension to lead the Saio Triad. Toru Hirose, the patriarch of Yuta Usami's family, helps Haruka disappear without letting Yuta know either of her whereabouts or of the existence of his son.


Child Protective Services wants to take Haruto because Haruka had no known relatives. Because Kiryu is not her biological father, he is told he can not watch over him. Kiryu explains that both he and Haruka grew up in orphanages and he didn't want that for Haruto. When the CPS official still insists that he can't care for the baby, Kiryu takes Haruto and brings him back to New Serena. Luckily, Date convinced the officer that Kiryu could handle it, and vowed that he would be responsible if anything happened.
Haruka uses payphones to periodically call the orphans at Sunflower Orphanage, but the calls stop around the time Haruka's son Haruto is born. Haruka stays in hiding with Haruto for a year until Tatsukawa tells her to come to Kamurocho and gives her the false impression that he will help her despite his orders.


Haruka's phone was cracked, but the police were able to extract the location data. Kiryu learned that Haruka's previous known location was in Hiroshima, so he travels there to find out what caused her to come back to Kamurocho and to discover the identity of Haruto's father.
In Kamurocho, Tatsukawa tried to get her into his car, but Haruka rightly didn't trust him. She tried to run away, but he ran into her with his car. She protected Haruto with her body and took the full force of the impact. Haruka and Haruto were taken under police protection at Touto University Hospital and Tatsukawa was killed by the Saio Triad for his failure.
