A: Hey! Did you hear about something crazy happening in Hong Kong?

B: No! What’s up?

A: Apparently, two Japanese guys got robbed!

B: Seriously? Where?

A: In Sheung Wan, that's a busy area. They were getting out of a taxi.

B: Wow, that's scary! How much did they lose?

A: A *lot*! Like, almost 400,000 dollars! It was all in Japanese yen.

B: Whoa! What were they doing with that kind of money?

A: They were going to exchange it! They were near lots of money exchange places.

B: That’s a strange spot to be carrying that much cash. Did the police catch anyone?

A: They’re looking for two guys who ran off in a car. They’ve arrested 17 people, actually.

B: Seventeen?! But did they find the money?

A: Nope, the money is still missing. It reminds me, there was another big robbery there in December!

B: Really? What happened then?

A: Two people from a Japanese crypto company got robbed too! They lost even *more* money - around 6.5 million dollars!

B: Oh my goodness! Hong Kong isn't feeling so safe right now.
