This is ages ago, when I was working at a restaurant, a tourist-looking foreigner came ask me whether Ninja doesn’t exist these days anymore.
I said “There are many!”
“Where? And who are Ninja?” said him.
“You can’t tell from the appearance” answered me.
Then he said “Why not? Ninja is supposed to be in black cloths, holding a sword on his back….”
So I said
“What’s the job of Ninja? They are some kind of spies and snipers right?
If they were in all black cloths and held a sword oh their back, people will soon find out that they are Ninja.
The modern Ninja are in business suits or the outfit just like you wear.
They don’t have to dive into the lake with bamboo pipes anymore.
They now carry on the missions through high-tech tools made in Japan.
They used to work under Shogun but nowadays they belong to a national organisation.
They are alike of CIA but the government doesn’t publicly acknowledge their existence.
Ninjas can be not only public employees but also private employees and ordinary people.
If you want to know more about it, go get the book called “Gendai no Ninja (Modern Ninja)” published by Tamiake Shobou.”
He ran for the book shop.
