Although the exact number of missing people in Japan is not known, an increase in companies known as yonigeya reflects a rise in jōhatsu cases. The term yonigeya means “fly-by-night arrangers” and refers to companies that help clients who seek to disappear from their current lives. These companies often employ private investigators, security experts, and counselors to help those trying to run away from difficult or dangerous situations. It is estimated that there are several dozen yonigeya companies operating across Japan.
虽然日本失踪人口的确切人数尚不清楚，但被称为夜逃屋（yonigeya）的公司数量上升反映了蒸发案件的增加。夜逃屋一词的意思是「一夜逃脱的筹划者」，指的是帮助那些试图从当前生活中消失的委托人的公司。这些公司通常会雇用私家侦探、安全专家和顾问，以帮助那些试图逃离困境或危险处境的人。据估计，日本各地有数十家夜逃屋公司在营运。
