It's not an urban myth. The group was spearheaded by a four man clique, naturally called "The Gang of 4". They took their names from a popular American film of the time that was a thinly veiled Marxist critique of the corrosive effect of business on the family structure. "Michael" was killed when hit by a bus crossing a busy Tokyo street. He didn't hear the horn because he was wearing a CD Walkman. "Sonny" was shot and paralyzed by one of his mistress. The police believe it to be a simple crime of passion. "Tom" disappeared on a flight back to Japan from the Netherlands. The case was never solved. After the Tom-incident, "Fredo" retired and now runs a string of strip clubs in Yokohama.
