What happens if Ryo doesn’t chase Ren?

When Ryo finds Ren and members of his gang in Pigeon park, he has to give chase when they run away but what happens if Ryo doesn’t chase them and he just stands still? Has anyone done this? I was thinking of doing this myself but I thought I’d ask if anyone has already done this to save me the time of doing this myself.

If you don't follow anyone or go near Lucky Plaza then Ryo will go there automatically once the time hits 3 or 4 am.
It's been long since I tried this so I don't remember the exact specifics. Might be worth capturing another attempt.

Wow so the chase behind Lucky Plaza occurs when it’s dark? That’d be cool to see! I’d love to see a clip of that. I figured there might have been an obscure cutscene where Ryo goes back to wong’s boat and talks about Ren running away. That would’ve been kinda cool but at least I now know what happens so thank you for your reply.

Alright, it took me longer to get this done than I thought but here it is.

Was a bit different then I rememered. Ryo only goes back to the boat, not to Lucky Plaza. I tried getting Ryo to know the fact that Ren is there but only Sam, Larry and Cool Z know and they lead you there and if you lose them, Ryo will be lost. None of the other NPCs every say anything about Lucky Plaza.

As a bonus fact, I tried the chase again, late in the day when it was raining, as I heard of the possibility of Ren carrying an umbrella. That didn't happen. But it is worth pointing out that the game will stop the rain when the QTE chase at Lucky Plaza starts. Was a bit sad, I wanted to see them fall on the truck in pouring rain.

You never cease to amaze, Blue :D

It's funny - I've completed Shenmue II at least a dozen times, but not once did I notice the subtle little nod signal Ren gives Larry before they all scatter off. Nice little detail. Also, the animation of Ryo apprehending Larry is the same as when a security guard catches Ryo in the Old Warehouse District, is it not?
