New Packages Found!

After nearly one month of searching the streets of Tokyo, we have found our next “packages”. They are twins, male and appear healthy and fit. We will have them checked for any diseases etc after they have been picked up.

We started by hanging around with the “no jyuku sha” or “field campers” as they call themselves. But it was too hard to fit in. Remember we are westerners, and although it is easy to fit in when we are in our hotel or in the bar, it is very difficult not to stand out when we are with normal Japanese people.

We have been spending most days in Akihabara.

It is a very interesting area of Tokyo, the main pedestrian walkway usually has girls there waiting for you to take their picture.

We think they are trying to be discovered as the next AV Idol, but the might just like to show their knickers in public.

This is where our new “packages live.

They are “no jyuku sha” but they are also new to the streets. We have already befriended them by giving them food and wine, they get drunk very quickly, which is a good thing as wine in Japan is very expensive.

We will be picking them up this weekend as their transport is leaving on Monday.

We will let you know their destination after they have been shipped safely.

London Day 3

We have been searching around London for our package, and we think we have found at least one that fits the clients order.

We spent most of Monday night wandering around Soho and drinking coffee in Bar Italia, there were a few homeless people around but most were too old or too stupid to keep our client happy. So we gave up and went back to the hotel for a Gin & Tonic or two.

Last night however was more productive, train stations are always a good place to find victims, and London has the great Waterloo station. as we walked over the Thames a begger asked us to spare some change, he looks about the right age, and then he asked me a question, “How long is a piece of string?”

I told him I didn’t know.

He then said, “Twice as long as half of it.”

Now to me this shows intelligence, which is one of the clients requests, it also meant that I gave him two pounds.

He was very polite and thanked us very nicely, so he has potential

Waterloo Station, London

We found one more potential package inside the station, down in the corridors of the underground station. He looks about 23 and seemed fairly well spoken, but did not show the intelligence of the first young man.

We will return to these locations later today just to check that these places are where these young men can usually be found. Homeless people normally stick to where they know, they can guess how much they can make from passers buy in each location and at what times of day, they are creatures of routine, that is why our job is so easy.

If you are a salmon fisher, or a bear, then you know when the fish will be swimming upstream to spawn, you know where they will be an any given time, that is why so many fish get caught and eaten, they are creatures of routine too.

London – Day 1

We do like London, we spent the night in the hotel, we ordered some club sandwiches from room service and watched some British television. Then we went down to the bar, I hav been to this bar on a number of occasions, so I knew to order Gin & Tonic’s, the bar tender, prepared 2 large G&T’s using the bar’s trademark double Bombay Saphire gin. This is in my opinion the only way to have a Gin & Tonic, all of the other brands of gin just pale in comparison.

We had a couple of those and went off to our rooms for an early night.

This morning we met in the restaurant, where we both orfered the hotels “Full English Breakfast”, if you have been travelling around as much as us, you do start to miss your home grown foods.

The hotel breakfast was perfect, consisting of 4 rashers of good-quality lean unsmoked back bacon, 4 brown-cap portabello mushrooms, some grilled cherry tomatoes, 2 slices granary or wholegrain bread (toasted), 2 good-quality free-range pork sausages, 2 eggs (poached), some freshly squeezed orange juice and a copy of the Independant newspaper.

What a great way to start the day.

After breakfast we decided to do a little bit of shopping, although we are allways looking for a potential package. Sadly today there was only shopping, we are back at the hotel now but will be going out later in search of a package to match our clients order. London is a good place to find desperate people, there are lots of lonely people here, lots of homeless people and lots of people who have given up on life, the perfect packages are just waiting to be found.

Easy pickings

We will start down by Waterloo station and then wnder around the Strand, up Regent Street and along Oxford Street, hopefully it will not take more than a few days to find him. Although it is around 13 degrees C, it is still to cold here to stay longer than a few days.

We will keep you updated.
