A: Did you hear about the news? It's crazy!
B: No, what happened? Tell me!
A: Okay, so remember that huge amount of money that was targeted at Haneda Airport?
B: Yeah, I vaguely remember something about that.
A: Well, police found a car they think the attackers used! It was near a river, a bit outside Tokyo.
B: Wow, seriously? A getaway car? That’s like something from a movie!
A: They found it abandoned, with fake license plates. It was stolen, too!
B: So, the attackers are still out there?
A: Yep! Police think they’re still in Japan. It gets weirder…
B: Oh no… what now?
A: Two people from the group who were attacked left for Hong Kong.
B: Okay… and?
A: One of them got attacked *again* in Hong Kong and lost a ton of money! Like, over 300,000 dollars!
B: No way! That's awful!
A: And get this, the police think that the Japanese guy told the others where to find the person. He's been charged in Hong Kong.
B: That’s so sneaky! He’s in trouble now.
A: And… there was *another* robbery in Tokyo just a couple of hours before!
B: Another one?! Really?
A: Yeah, they stole over 2.5 million dollars from another group!
B: That’s unbelievable. So many big robberies!
A: Police think those robbers ran towards Tochigi. They’re still at large too!
B: This is wild! So many people running around with so much money… and causing trouble!
