Shakedown Road
The Shakedown Road (カツアゲロード, Katsuage Rōdo) is a neighborhood in Morioh where the residents are known for extorting visitors. Strange events take place there due to the effects of a Stand.
Summary
The effects that happen to the victims in Shakedown Road strangely resemble those of the scams used by Tamami Kobayashi in that the victim is presumably set up as the perpetrator of some wrongdoing and forced to hand over his/her money as a result. It seems that the leaves on the ground of a Ginkgo biloba are the cause of such exploits.[1]

Abilities
Stand
When a person steps on or an object is placed on the leaves, a group of countless ladybug-like Stands move them around instantaneously, usually causing the person to accidentally break something.
