What if you forget to bring paper when you go to the toilet? Should you shout loudly for help or just walk out with your pants on? Recently, a Japanese man encountered a situation where there was no toilet paper in the restroom at a shopping mall. With no other options, he sent out a Weibo plea for help. In response,热心netizens actually helped contact the mall management, who promptly delivered toilet paper to him. This incident quickly made the man an internet sensation, earning him the nickname "Toilet Man."

On the afternoon of May 5, a Japanese netizen with the nickname "DJ Chief" used his phone to post two messages on Twitter. The first message read: "Help! I'm out of toilet paper."

Two minutes later, his second message read: "No more paper, please save me! I'm in the men's restroom stall on the 3rd floor of YODOHASI Mall in Akihabara."

Clearly, these two messages indicated that he was facing the embarrassing situation of being in a mall restroom without any toilet paper.

Unexpectedly, once the message was posted, it quickly went viral online. Netizens passed the message around, and even foreign netizens translated the information into English and spread it widely.

Twenty minutes later, "Toilet Man" posted a third message on Twitter saying, "It's all good now! Thanks to the kind person who brought the toilet paper."

It turned out that after the numerous netizens' strong retweets, someone specifically called the mall. Eventually, a mall staff member personally delivered the toilet paper, resolving the man's "urgent need."
