[Reporter Peng Jianli/Miaoli Report] Zhang Xianghua, the widow of the well-known writer Bo Yang, accompanied by a friend surnamed Xu, went to a bank in Toufen City, Miaoli County yesterday (20th) to get the Hong Kong dollar cash stored in the safe.

Because of Zhang Xianghua's poor eyesight, after leaving, he asked his friend "Did you see the jewelry inside?" Unexpectedly, the friend replied "I don't seem to have seen it", which surprised Zhang. The more he thought about it, the more disturbed he became. This morning (21st) I asked the Toufen Police Station for help and went to the bank to confirm again. After confirming that the property was safe, a false alarm was resolved.

Zhang Xianghua's eyes were damaged due to age and eyesight. She originally lived with Bo Yang in Xindian District, New Taipei City. After Bo Yang passed away in 2008, Zhang Xianghua moved to Baoshan Township, Hsinchu County; a friend surnamed Xu also assisted in taking care of her daily life.

After the two left and returned, Zhang Xianghua casually asked his friend surnamed Xu, "Did you see the jewelry inside?" Unexpectedly, the friend replied "I don't think I saw it!" Zhang was startled, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy they became. When I went to the Toufen Police Station for help, I said that "the tens of millions of jewels stored in the safe seem to be missing", and I hope the police can accompany me to confirm.

Upon hearing this, Zeng Qihan, the head of the Toufen Police Station, immediately assisted Zhang to contact the bank and accompanied him there. After checking and counting the safe with the bank assistant and others, he confirmed that there was no shortage of items in the safe, and resolved the false alarm. Zhang Xianghua thanked the police for their active assistance. , Friends surnamed Xu also laughed at themselves as old and dizzy.

Lin Yuwang, chief of the Toufen police sub-district, said that people should regularly check their belongings stored in bank safes, take photos and record them as evidence to ensure personal rights.
