Ahhhh, I see. I see.
So neighbors in Japan go around telling their landlords about things like this? I mean, when I see someone at my neighbors house, I don't call my landlord and say "there is someone illegally staying at my neighbor's house" I mean, I usually just assume "oh look, maybe someone moved in with my neighbor."
I guess the mentality is different, eh?
