Payback is a case featured in Criminal Case, appearing as the sixty-eighth case of the game and the twelfth case of Pacific Bay. It takes place in Inner City, a district based in Pacific Bay.

Plot

Andrea told Amy and the player to investigate a murder in a Jewish delicatessen, where they found the body of ex-con David Breitman with his throat slashed.

During the investigation, Hannah found out that David had been living in the synagogue. Later, Hannah discovered that David and Yuan Wong used to rob together when they were younger. Eventually, Yuan was arrested for the murder.

After pleading innocence, Yuan admitted to the crime. Yuan had used the money from the robberies to build her herbal shop and to help her family. David approached her 25 years later and asked her for his cut. After Yuan refused to give him the money, David robbed her and fled. When she spotted David at the delicatessen, Yuan threw hot tea at his face to blind him and slashed his throat with a pocket knife. She then knocked him out with a menorah to lessen his pain. Judge Dante sentenced her to 25 years in jail.

Post-trial, Eva Breitman, David's daughter, told Amy and the player that she spotted suspicious people around the synagogue. There, they found a gas mask which (per Yann) was used by Fredo Mancini, Inner Chaos' former leader, to graffiti the temple. The team then warned Eva and Jacob Fishman about the anarchists.
