>>1 >At the time, there were two male employees at the company who were live streaming trading, >and after the broadcast ended, at around 3:30 a.m., the two men broke in. They’re attracting enemies, not customers lol. If you say “I have money”, of course you’ll be targeted. It’s not the Showa era anymore, so it’s time to stop being so dazed by peace.
In the early hours of September 9th, a bondage robbery took place in Chuo Ward, Osaka City, in which a large number of trading cards with a market value of over 10 million yen were stolen, and police are searching for the two men who escaped. Is the current value of the trading cards likely to exceed 10 million yen?
>>9 Maybe they’re the kind of people who would rather commit robbery, live lavishly, and then spend time in prison than continue living in poverty as they are now? I don’t know if they live in poverty or not, but I don’t think rich people would commit robbery.
Trading cards are light and don’t take up much space, and since they don’t have serial numbers they’re hard to get your hands on, so they’re easy to handle.
Last year, they even held a dubious seminar saying that “Pokemon cards are a guaranteed profitable investment.” Even after the bubble burst, it’s still worth 10 million yen.
They know there are high-value cards because they’ll be showing them in person during the stream. They committed the crime after it ended so they wouldn’t break in and cause a commotion. They seem like they know a lot about it.
Yesterday at Suita Station, an old man kept asking me, “Where is Book Off?” He was a creepy old man, but if I had known about this incident, I would have reported it.
