 The place is called &#8220;Y.&#8221; The fee is 27,500 yen for 110 minutes. It is a long-established high-class establishment that charges 27,500 yen for a 110-minute bath and 67,500 yen for the total. The cast members were of a high level because it was a high-class establishment, and many of the women were &#8220;lovers.

 At around 11:20 a.m. on May 5, an employee of the store called 119 and said, &#8220;A woman was stabbed by a male customer. The stabbing took place in the left neck and right abdomen, that is, in the neck and abdomen. A survival knife, believed to be the murder weapon, was found in the room. The woman was already unconscious when she was transported to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead at 12:45 p.m.&#8221; (National newspaper reporter)
 The deceased was a female employee in her 30s. The man who stabbed the woman, also in his 30s, is believed to have stabbed himself in the abdomen after stabbing her, and was seriously injured.
 The police department plans to arrest the man on suspicion of murder pending his recovery. However, the man is in the intensive care unit and it is expected to take one week to 10 days for him to recover&#8221;.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 More than three days have passed since the incident, but the man has not yet been arrested, and there are still many unknowns. The biggest mystery is the motive as to why he committed the crime.
 In 2003, a female employee of &#8220;Y&#8221; was strangled to death inside the restaurant. The murderer at that time was a male employee of another soap store in Yoshiwara. In Yoshiwara, it is customary for male employees to visit friendly establishments to play with each other as customers, and it seems that this is how he caused the incident at the establishment he had visited. However, it seems that the man in his 30s was not an employee of Yoshiwara, although he had visited &#8220;Y&#8221; several times.
 There is no indication that the store has ever consulted with the police about any problems or stalking. However, if the store was claiming to serve &#8220;lovers,&#8221; there is a possibility that a regular customer who developed a one-sided liking for the store may have turned the tables on her&#8230;&#8221; (see above). (see above).
 The truth of the incident awaits further investigation.
