A: Hey Kenji! Did you hear about the news from Hong Kong? Crazy!

B: No, what happened, Hana?

A: Apparently, some people robbed two Japanese men! They took a backpack with a *lot* of money.

B: Wow! How much?

A: Like, 51 million yen! That’s almost 330,000 dollars!

B: Seriously?! They were carrying that much cash around?

A: Yeah, they're dealers in precious metals. They were trying to change it into Hong Kong dollars.

B: That’s risky! Did the police catch anyone?

A: They did! Six people, including two other Japanese people!

B: Two Japanese people involved? Really?

A: It gets weirder! One of the men who reported the robbery might have helped the robbers!

B: No way! He gave them information?

A: That’s what they think! The others are from China and Hong Kong. The police found some of the money too.

B: That's good! Did anything similar happen in Tokyo?

A: Actually, yes! Someone tried to rob a man at Haneda Airport earlier. Pepper spray, the whole thing.

B: Oh my goodness! Were they also carrying a lot of money?

A: Yep! Around 190 million yen! Police think it might be connected to the Hong Kong robbery.

A: They might even work together – Hong Kong and Japanese police, I mean.

B: That’s a big mess! Let's hope they catch everyone.
