Internet cafe instead of a bedroom
Internet cafes were chosen by Japanese bums as a haven for the night. They pay a cheap rate at this time of day to spend the night in warmth and relative peace.
Having settled down at the computer, the declassed element will also look in the Internet. As the Japanese Playboy writes, local charitable foundations often receive messages from their wards at night. 20-30-year-old homeless people who have no permanent job, who were evicted from their apartments for non-payment, complain in letters about their lot.
It happens that once went to the Internet cafes are their real regulars. Every night they come to their place, which is already a part of life. So, one of the heroes admitted that he spent the entire 18 months spending the night in an institution. “There is no shower or bed here,” he writes in one of the letters to the charity center. “I am sitting on a wooden chair, pushing the keyboard aside and dozing on the table.”

But there are "tenants" with even longer experience. For example, 59-year-old Yasushi roam on the Internet cafe for four years. In some of them, he discovered the presence of a shower, which, however, did not use - it was necessary to stand in line for 3 hours (when you need to wash yourself, go to the bathhouse - it is cheaper). Yasushi describes his day as follows: at 7 am, when the “paid Internet” ends, he goes to collect discarded magazines at the railway station. After he resells them, saving, on average, 50 yen apiece. Having implemented 50 magazines in this way, he buys his food and returns to an internet cafe, where he pays about 100 yen per hour.
