TAIPEI (TVBS News) — A 70-year-old man named Liu, who was preparing for a business trip to Japan with nearly NT$1 million in various currencies, reported his lost backpack on Friday (Dec. 8) after a short trip to Taichung.

Liu had traveled to Taichung to have his clothing repaired while enjoying a brief stay before returning home to Nantou. Upon preparing to leave, he discovered that his backpack was missing and promptly reported it to the police.

 


Fortunately, a convenience store clerk found the unattended backpack while cleaning up tables. After securing the bag and finding no owner, the clerk inspected its contents, discovering a significant amount of money, including Japanese Yen, U.S. dollars, and Chinese Yuan, totaling nearly NT$1 million.

Coincidentally, the First Precinct Taichung City Police Department, already assisting Mr. Liu in locating his lost item, was alerted by the convenience store about the discovery.

Deputy Head Hsiung Tien-hsin of the Precinct confirmed in the evening today that the recovered property belonged to Liu. Hsiung reported that the backpack contained all the foreign currencies Liu needed for his upcoming business trip to Japan.
