Chin went out. Had a girlfriend. He went out at night time when he knew the regular agents assigned to him were off work. That was another perk of staying low key. Since he always met through intermediaries and was never directly involved with anything, the hot headed night shift agents didn't bother staking him out. He knew that was the time to step out, visit the goomar. Chin was screwing with everyone. It wasn't dignified but it worked. It's the reason the Genovese are are still the "Ivy League" to this day.
