When he got home, he intended to call the wallet owner’s relatives, but because the phone was password-protected, Mr. Long and his wife accessed their personal Facebook page to post a missing person notice. His information received hundreds of likes, comments and shares.
A moment later, someone called Ms. Hue's phone. The contact person was a close friend of the owner of the leather wallet and phone. Through this person, Mr. Long and his wife were able to contact Ms. Phan Thi Hue - the owner of the lost items.
By the afternoon of the same day, the owner of the wallet came to Long's house to receive all of his belongings. Upon receiving the property, Tuan and Hue were very touched and offered to return some money as a "thank you", but Lieutenant Nguyen Dinh Long firmly refused. "This is a very normal thing to do, especially for soldiers like us," said Lieutenant Long.
It is known that Ms. Hue and her husband are in difficult circumstances, their family is engaged in agricultural production, and they have permanent residence in Quynh Thach commune, Quynh Luu. Ms. Hue also said that on the way to her mother's hometown in Thanh Chuong district to visit her sick father, she lost the above mentioned property. The family of Senior Lieutenant Nguyen Dinh Long is also in similar circumstances, the husband is a reporter for the 15W case, the wife is a teacher at Lien Co Kindergarten in Nam Dan district, and has an elderly mother who is sick./.
