This is a good thread. I have had a number of scares. One time when in Chinatown I was in the middle of getting a massage, when the girl and I heard running footsteps outside the door. She immediately stopped to listen to the commotion outside, and left to take a look. It was quite some time before the manager walked into the room and informed me the board of health had attempted to get admittance to inspect the place. She asked me to leave without any charge for the services rendered, and said they’ll be closed for the rest of the day. Also, he requested if asked by anyone on the way out, do not say I get a massage when there. If asked to say that I use the sauna or steam room. I left and thanked my lucky stars.
Another time a private apartments that I used to weekly visit got busted. For some inexplicable reason I happened not to go at my regular time, and arrived to see the door busted and the place empty. There were neither stickers nor police tapes; it just looked like a break in with nothing obviously stolen. I went in to the place not realizing what had happened. I actually thought the places had been robbed, and called the Mama-san’s cell phone to let her know. Naturally there was no answer. Later I found out the police busted them, and that I shouldn’t have gone into the apartment because it was crime scene. An asshole cop could have easily taken me in for tampering with a crime scene. I could have been in big trouble.
