The problem is Krauss' position.
It does not really matter what kind of trouble Hideyoshi, Rudolf and Rosa are in. Krauss 'attacks' them, but the attack is actually a feint, he can't do anything to make their situation any worse than it is, and this attack does nothing to stop them from making his life much more miserable right now -- even if Kinzo is alive, Krauss was embezzling and a single proper kick will bring the house down.
...wait, minor eureka.
The outside phone line is out not to prevent calling police, which would do no good in the typhoon anyway. It is out to prevent the siblings from pulling the carpet out from underneath Krauss by making a phone call that would trigger a tax audit of his business while he is unable to oversee it personally, while he is trying to think of a method to prevent them from making that accusation in the future!
Really, what the police would do, teleport in?
