Okay, so I've been living next door to this asian family consisting of 3 men and 3 women in a house too small for comfortable accomodation of that, for around 5 years now, and they seem friendly enough, whenever they see me, they wave and ask about my father (who's not long for this world) and that's all well and good.
Thing is, I'm a smoker and a night owl, so it's not uncommon for me to be outside smoking one or two on the porch at 2-4am each night, just comfortably hidden behind the foliage and shadows of my yard. It's that type of house that see's everyone, but everyone can't see it kinda deal.
Well, around once a month, usually on a weekday, some white Lexus FWD speeds up and smashes the handbreak right outside their house, two asian dudes get out quick as fuck and carry a huge plain packaging box over to the fence and toss it over an then speed right the fuck off like they're under arrest.
Around 5 mins later, a few of the people inside come out AT 4 IN THE MORNING and pick this package up and secret it inside super sus like... Well, this has been happening for a while and I've told my friends and family, they are either spies or drug dealers.
Anyway, forward time to around a week ago when my dog's favourite toy goes over their fence, and I need to go over to get it. I enter their property and immidately notice, it's wrapped in thick plastic and ducktape, doors, windows, the sides of the varanda, pretty much anything that you can see through is just rushedly wrapped in plastic and tape.
They have no doorbell, it's been taken off the wall, so I knock loudly a few times and the whole time all I can hear is people talking in Chinese, and they sound really suspect. After like 10 fucking mins of me saying "Hello, anyone home, I lost my dog's toy" the "friendly" lady comes out all sweet and cool like and says how she can help while holding the door closed behind her.
I explain that my dog's toy is over their fence, can I go get it, to which she quickly said no and that they will throw it over for me in a few hours, they are just busy right now... I was like, kay thx and left. I wanna point out that there is a very unfortunate smell as you get close to the door, I'm not into drugs so I don't know what they smell like, but it's pretty chemically to say the least.
It wasn't until what happened last night that I decided to write this here today, as it was the first time I've seen it happen. Like usual, I'm out front having a smoke when that Lexus rolls back at around the same time, only now it's the neighbours that are bringing out several big unlabelled boxes and everyone is hurridly fitting it into the car, before just disappearing into the night like burglars.
This time I put out my cigarette and knelt down so as not to be seen an witnessed the whole thing. So what do you guys think is going on? I live in the suburbs in what is considered a nice area and so this kind of behavour sticks out really loudly.
