Enraptured in Enchantment: Tanaka's Tokyo Tale

I pressed my forehead to the cool glass of the window, watching the rain fall. It was going to be another long night. I was working on a big case and it could take weeks before I got any results. My stomach growled and I looked at the clock. I had only been working for an hour.

I got up from my desk and pulled up my hood. Like every other investigator, I had to get creative with my resources. The lab was located in an old warehouse that was half abandoned. The place didn't have any windows or doors and there wasn't much inside except for barely functioning equipment and some desks. The owners weren't very concerned about security so it wasn't hard for me to break in. That's why I kept my office here, the view was nice and there were no interruptions

I opened the door to my office and stepped outside into the hallway. One of the lights flickered but it did its job for now. The hallways were long, dark, and full of cobwebs so I kept my eyes on what lay ahead of me until I reached the end of the hall. A large metal door stood in front of me with a sign that read "No Entry". I knocked three times then waited for someone to let me in.

The man in front of me wore a black suit, he had a shaved head and thick round glasses that made him look like an owl. He held his hand out as if expecting something from me but when he saw that I had nothing he sighed at me. "What do you want?"

I ignored his rudeness and answered his question without missing a beat "I need to get in."

He rolled his eyes at me and reached for a key hanging around his neck by a thin chain. He put the key in the lock and turned it left then right then left again until it finally clicked open. He stepped aside so I could enter first then followed behind me shutting the door shut behind him before following down another dark hallway towards the back of the warehouse where the laboratory was located. As we walked he asked me "Whatcha need this time? More samples?"

"Yeah," I said as we stopped in front of a door labelled "C6". The man unlocked it with his key and we went inside, he locked it back up once we were inside making sure no one would walk in on us as we did our work "I need some semen."

The man began looking through some cabinets until he found what he was looking for, pulling out a syringe filled with clear liquid "Again?" he asked as he handed it to me "This is your third time this month isn't it?" He chuckled at himself before walking over to one of the tables where there was a needle attached to an IV line connected to one of those large vats you see hospitals use for blood draws. He emptied out all but one drop into the vat before setting both syringes down on another table where there were four others lying next to each other collecting more samples like they were waiting for their turns at recess "Not everyone has your sexual stamina." He teased at me while starting up a machine beside him that hummed softly until he said something else loud enough for me to hear him through all the noise "You must be real popular..." He made sure not to catch my eye as he said that last word causing both of us to laugh quietly together at his joke after which he went back to work preparing things so that he could draw out some sperm from two patients who were brought here earlier today while they were asleep from their hospital beds so fast asleep that they wouldn't even remember waking up let alone being brought here when they woke up again later today or tomorrow morning depending on when they decided to wake up after all though most people would prefer to stay asleep than sit around waiting for whatever test or surgery was necessary before they could go back home again after which everything would go back normal until next time when someone else needed their help with something similar or worse than what these two patients needed done before they finished off their shift tonight or whenever they ended up leaving things early or staying late at work today if you know what I mean... either way sometimes we get pretty busy even after hours but other times things can fall pretty dead around here... Still thinking about how boring things can get sometimes when nobody needs our help with anything doesn't make waiting around any easier... but still sometimes it's good... just depends on how you look at things really...
