He almost cried several times. Mr Fu said that after losing the money, his mind went blank and everyone was dumbfounded. This money was his life savings, prepared for his child who studies medicine to go to Hong Kong for further studies. A citizen in Wuhan lost a full one million Hong Kong dollars in a taxi. More than an hour later, just when he was extremely worried, he learned that the taxi driver had already handed the money over to the police.

Later, two more passengers got into the car, and it wasn't until the third passenger tried to take the bag away when getting out of the car that he suddenly remembered, and immediately stopped that passenger from taking it.
At 9 o'clock on the 12th, the flexible team of the Wuhan Public Security Bureau Bus Division received a situation report from taxi driver Liu Quan of Wuhan Hengchang Gongmao Taxi Company, stating that he had found one million Hong Kong dollars in cash left by a customer in the car.
