!!Tropes:
* ArcVillain: A BigBadDuumvirate between Larry Rochester and Deputy Mayor Sandra Hwang; the former is the true mastermind behind a big [[TheCon con]] created to scam people out of their money by investing on a fake telephone company with promises of saving them from bankruptcy, and the latter is the CorruptPolitician who has been aiding him by diverting attention away from his family and their illicit activities.
*BigScrewedUpFamily: The Rochester family, whose members have been scarcely appearing throughout the previous six districts in minor roles (apart from Archie, who served as the ArcVillain of [[Recap/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePastElysiumFieldsDistrict Elysium Fields]], take most of the spotlight in Wolf Street by introducing even more members and giving bigger roles to previously seen ones, which is fitting, as the Flying Squad originally arrives to the district to investigate them in the first place.
*BreatherEpisode: Coming directly after [[Recap/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePastSinnersEndDistrict the]] [[Recap/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePastCoyoteGorgeDistrict three]]-[[Recap/CriminalCaseMysteriesOfThePastCrimsonBanksDistrict part]] MobWar StoryArc which ended on a mostly bitter BittersweetEnding, Wolf Street arguably manages to tone down the stakes of its arc by making its plots tamer and giving them quick resolutions without much collateral damage, as the Flying Squad leaves the district having resolved the financial crisis, counterfeit cash problem, and fake company scam afflicting Wolf Street without any big losses or heartbreaking resolutions. And even if the Rochesters aren't defeated yet, you still manage to deal a considerable blow by arresting Larry (who also gives you useful information regarding his family's illegal activities) while also taking Sandra Hwang, a powerful ally, out of the picture.
*TheCon: One of the district's central plots is dealing with one of these established by a member of the Rochester family, who is trying to scam people by tricking them into investing their money on a fake telephone company.
*ADayInTheLimelight: Viola gets to be in the spotlight during this district, as [[GeneHunt the hunt for her real father]] and problems with her mother are given a lot of focus after having discovered that the man who raised her is actually her stepfather.
*HalfwayPlotSwitch: Wolf Street ''loves'' doing these. While the Flying Squad initially arrives to the district to investigate the Rochester family, plans rapidly change when a financial crisis starts wrecking havoc in the district, which then turns into a hunt for a counterfeiting that has been distributing fake money to citizens, which ''then'' turns into trying to stop a scam from a fake company promising people to get them out of bankruptcy, which ''finally'' ends with solving the murder of a high-ranking politician who turns out to be ConnectedAllAlong with the Rochesters and TheCon.
*RecurringCharacter: The main recurring characters for Wolf Street are [[IdleRich Larry Rochester]], [[CorruptPolitician Deputy Mayor Sandra Hwang]], [[ThePatriarch Horatio Rochester]], [[CoolOldLady Lady Highmore]], [[WhiteSheep Leopold Rochester]], [[TookALevelInJerkass Archie Rochester]], and [[AmoralAttorney Hector Harvey]].
*ShoutOut: The district is both a parody of Wall Street and a reference to ''Film/TheWolfOfWallStreet''.
