Hi 25M,
Yesterday I was returning from Tambaram to my hometown by train. I had a backpack having office laptop and trolley bag having my clothes. I had put my trolley bag under the lower birth seat and I fell asleep within 15 minutes of train departure and I woke up at 02:30 as train was about to reach my hometown and to my surprise, my trolley bag was missing and in the opposite seat bottom I was able to spot the similar trolley bag but in different colour shade. I was aware that other bag was carried by a person in my compartment and he was not there when I was checking mine and I thought that TTR has exchanged his seat with other person and I thought that he might be in train still and I was searching for him and unfortunately, I couldn't find him and by the time, my destination had arrived. So, I gave my mobile number to one of the person in the same compartment who was sleeping in lower birth and I just took his bag and I offboarded from the train and asked him to give my mobile number if that person comes to search for his bag after my off board. I came home and I searched his bag for his address and unfortunately, I didn't find any details about him and I found cash of 31,000 rs and multiple blank cheques with signature and some other costly items which may worth around 60K. As I hunched, I got a call next morning from a person in Tirunelveli who was intimitated to have a check about the bag through police influence and he got my number from the person to whom I give. And the person told me that person had off boarded at Villupuram and he mistakenly took my bag instead. I told him that his bag is safe with me and I asked him to share my mobile number to the person who mistakenly took my bag. Hence he called and he had explained the situation and I assured him that his belongings are safe with me and I told him to collect it from me. So he has sent his one of his worker and he had exchanged the bag. These whole things feels like a cinematic scene for me and I am proud of what I did. I was so happy that I keep up the trust of someone whom I don't know at all. I felt that I should share this to everyone as this action gave me extreme happiness more than whatever achieved till date in my academics and professional career so far.
