Street vendor with accomplice objects strongly as I take a photo in Tokyo's subway. She worries that I may reveal their secret and destroy their business. Nobody knows the other woman is an accomplice and she remains silent.

Every day these rip-off merchants deceive passers by with their over priced piece of paper, then flee and setting up at another site.
Passers by pay $ 10 for the charming puppet made of paper. The puppet is made to dance using an ultra thin string which is pulled by the accomplice. One end of the cotton is tied on the large bag (left); the cotton passes through the puppet's head; and then to the hidden hand of the accomplice. This secret is never revealed.
