SKIRMISHER

A Chinese teacher got her cellphone back from the motorcycle-riding thief who had snatched it, apparently because the thief was so touched by the 21 “pleading” text messages she had sent him.

“I’m Pan Aiying, a teacher from Wutou Middle School. You must be going through a difficult time. If so, I will not blame you,” wrote Pan in her first text message which did not get a response.

“Keep the 4,900 yuan if you really need it, but please return the other things to me. You are still young. To err is human. Correcting your mistakes is more important than anything,” Pan wrote.

She gave up hope of seeing her possessions again after sending 21 text messages without a reply.

But on her way out on Sunday morning, she stumbled over a package that had been left in her courtyard only to discover it was her stolen bag. Nothing had been taken.

“Dear Pan: I’m sorry. I made a mistake. Please forgive me,” a letter inside said.

“You are so tolerant even though I stole from you. I’ll correct my ways and be an upright person.”

Now, ladies, write these messages down in some sort of template and be ready to fire them away when it’s your turn to lose your phone. See if human nature, as shown here, really doesn’t stink all the time.
