Welcome to Tokyo.

歡迎來到東京。

That right there is the Kagawa police station here in Tokyo, one of the many police stations that they have in the city.

那裡是東京的香川警署，是該市眾多警署中的一個。

And yesterday when I was live streaming uh in Monza Nakako at the mister donuts outside of their, I dropped my iphone case, the one that I used to protect this phone when I'm not live streaming.

昨天，當我在蒙扎中子的先生甜甜圈外進行直播時，我的蘋果手機殼掉了，那是我在不直播時用來保護這部手機的。

And this morning I realized it and I knew wait, I better go and check if I was in the U.

今天早上我意識到了這一點，我知道等等，我最好去看看我是否在美國。

S.

S.

Or somewhere else.

或其他地方。

I probably wouldn't even bother but I'm not in the U.

我可能都不會去打擾，但我不在美國。

S.

S.

I'm in Japan, I'm in Tokyo, Japan, one of the largest metropolitan cities in the entire world.

我在日本，我在日本東京，整個世界上最大的大都市之一。

And it's also one of the most honest and I figured perhaps there's a chance I would get it back.

而且它也是最誠實的一個，我想也許我有機會把它拿回來。

Lo and behold after about 25 30 minutes I got my iphone case back and inside was my card, this is the Sudoku card I've been using that has about $75 on it still.

看，大約25 30分鐘後，我拿回了我的蘋果手機殼，裡面是我的卡，這是我一直在使用的數獨卡，上面還有大約75美元。

And uh I'll tell you about the process that it takes to get you lost and found back.

呃，我會告訴你讓你失而復得所需的過程。

If you ever lose something in Tokyo, don't, don't worry too much because there's a chance that you might get it back.

如果你在東京丟了東西，不要，不要太擔心，因為你有可能會找回來。

Uh So here's the process I had to go through um First don't lose your stuff.

嗯，所以這是我必須經歷的過程，嗯，首先不要丟失你的東西。

Let me just tell you it's part of your responsibility not to leave something on the train not to drop something, it's your personal belongings.

我只想告訴你，不把東西留在火車上是你的責任之一，不掉東西是你的私人物品。

It's, it should be important to you.

它是，它應該對你很重要。

So don't lose your stuff.

所以不要丟失你的東西。

Just keep that in mind, Especially when you're riding a train, you leave an ipad behind your iphone.

只要記住這一點，特別是當你乘坐火車時，你把ipad放在iphone後面。

It's happened to everybody though.

不過每個人都會遇到這種情況。

And when it does um people here in Japan have a great deal of respect.

而當它發生時，嗯，日本這裡的人們有很大的尊重。

They don't do it just because they're honest.

他們不這樣做只是因為他們是誠實的。

They do it because they have a respect for other people's personal property.

他們這樣做是因為他們對其他人的個人財產有一種尊重。

They also have a feeling they also feel um like they put themselves in their shoes because they've also everybody's lost something and everybody's had something returned to the police station.

他們也有一種感覺，他們也覺得嗯，就像他們把自己放在他們的位置上，因為他們也每個人都失去了一些東西，每個人都有一些東西被退回到警察局。

Which is why when I find something, I will probably either just put it on the side or I'll take it to the police station like I did.

這就是為什麼當我發現一些東西時，我可能會把它放在一邊，或者像我一樣把它帶到警察局去。

Now if you take it to the police station, there is some work involved like paperwork, but you feel for the other person.

現在，如果你把它帶到警察局，就會涉及一些工作，如文書工作，但你對對方有感情。

The third.

第三個。

The third reason why nobody steals uh in Japan is because there's a good chance that somebody saw them and if they pick up the wallet and keep it, there's a good chance that one of their neighbors saw them do it and that guilt will follow them till the end of time.

在日本沒有人偷呃的第三個原因是，很有可能有人看到他們，如果他們拿起錢包並保留它，很有可能他們的某個鄰居看到他們這樣做，這種罪惡感將跟隨他們直到最後。

And if they get caught, that's, that's humiliating thing worse than in here than it would be in the west.

如果他們被抓到，那是，那是羞辱性的事情，在這裡比在西方還糟糕。

So obviously um people are fairly honest because you won't always get things back.

所以很明顯，嗯，人們是相當誠實的，因為你不會總是得到東西。

So I went to the local police box to the place closest to where I thought I might have dropped it.

所以我去了當地的警察信箱，去了離我認為可能掉落的地方最近的地方。

Which was Monzon Nakako station.

這就是蒙松中子站。

There's a police box in there that's always busy.

那裡有一個警察信箱，總是很忙。

Sometimes these police boxes called koban K.

有時，這些警察箱被稱為Koban K。

O.

O.

B A.

B A．

N.

N.

They are often written in roman letters so that even the you know westerners, any, any tourists can find it pretty easy and it's got a red light just like you see the police has a red light right here.

它們通常用羅馬字母書寫，這樣即使是你知道的西方人，任何，任何遊客都可以很容易地找到它，它有一個紅燈，就像你看到警察在這裡有一個紅燈。

The koban have a red glowing light that you can always find these police boxes.

科班有一個紅色的發光點，你總是可以找到這些警察的箱子。

And I walked in there and I told him that I had lost an item instantly the police officers looked up and they held up a wallet and I said no it's not my wallet, it was a random foreigner.

我走進去，我告訴他我丟了一件東西，瞬間警察抬起頭來，他們舉起一個錢包，我說不，這不是我的錢包，是一個隨機的外國人。

Some white dude and obviously I didn't look like him but they still thought it was me.

某個白種人，顯然我長得不像他，但他們仍然認為那是我。

That was what he was like I had to say I do argue that that's not me, that's not me, I have my wallet, that's not me.

這就是他的想法，我不得不說，我確實認為那不是我，那不是我，我有我的錢包，那不是我。

So in the end I sat down um and he got out of the report and I told him my name, I told him my phone number.

所以最後我坐下來嗯，他從報告中出來，我告訴他我的名字，我告訴他我的電話號碼。

It's it help.

這是它的幫助。

It's helpful if you write your name in kata kana um as well because they have to write that on the report and you have to tell them what you lost.

如果你用卡塔假名嗯寫上你的名字，這很有幫助，因為他們必須在報告上寫上，你必須告訴他們你失去了什麼。

So google translate if you're not speaking english will come in very useful to you unless you've lost your phone and then you know it's gonna be really challenging.

是以，如果你不講英語，谷歌翻譯會對你非常有用，除非你失去了你的手機，然後你知道這將是真正的挑戰。

But ah I had, I had a picture of my, of the phone case because my son leo is always stealing my iphone so can I is always taking pictures of him touching my iphone.

但是啊，我有，我有一張我的，手機殼的照片，因為我的兒子Leo總是偷我的蘋果手機，所以我總是拍他碰我的蘋果手機的照片。

So I was able to show this is the case that I lost.

所以我能夠證明這是我輸掉的案子。

And I also have uh an old iphone case that look the same.

我也有呃一箇舊的蘋果手機殼，看起來也是這樣。

So I brought it with me.

所以我把它帶在身邊。

So he wrote it down black leather folio style iphone case.

所以他寫下了黑皮對開式蘋果手機殼。

I said inside of there was a Sudoku card which is like a card.

我說裡面有一張數獨卡，就像一張卡片。

And I showed him a picture of the card.

我還給他看了一張卡片的照片。

I say it's from Kagoshima area and he goes okay.

我說這是鹿兒島地區的，他說好。

So he started to enter it into the computer and within three minutes he came up with a hit and it was here at this police station, a five minute bicycle ride from where I was.

於是他開始將其輸入電腦，在三分鐘內，他得出了一個命案，就在這個警察局，離我所在的地方有五分鐘的自行車車程。

So he gave me a slip of paper with the file numbers.

於是他給了我一張寫有檔案編號的紙條。

I guess there was a number associated with the lost item.

我猜想有一個與丟失物品相關的號碼。

Um and I was on my way, I wrote here about 10 minutes ago.

嗯，我正在路上，我在這裡寫了大約10分鐘前。

It was all very quick which just surprised me because everything in Japan takes a long time.

這一切都非常快，這讓我感到驚訝，因為在日本一切都需要很長的時間。

And uh I walked in there, the hard thing is that my name is not written on anything in the case.

而呃我走到那裡，難的是我的名字沒有寫在箱子裡的任何東西上。

So I had to confirm a few things but I was lucky because on that on that.

所以我不得不確認一些事情，但我很幸運，因為在這一點上。

So Gocha card they can scan it and the police can see the contents of where I was.

所以Gocha卡他們可以掃描它，警察可以看到我在哪裡的內容。

So I had to rack my brain and and think, what did I buy with this card?

所以我不得不絞盡腦汁，想一想，我用這張卡買了什麼？

I remember I bought an ice coffee which was in the last live stream.

我記得我買了一杯冰咖啡，這是在最後一次直播中。

That was, that started the live stream.

那是，那是直播的開始。

That was a dollar.

那是一美元。

And I told him I took the train from last time Tsukishima to what the police officers and so you took it from Tsukishima to Ueno.

我告訴他，我從上次的月島坐火車到什麼警察，所以你從月島坐火車到上野。

I said, uh, she gave us two.

我說，呃，她給了我們兩個。

Okajima, she goes, you got it right.

岡島，她走了，你說對了。

And she gave me my case.

她把我的案子交給了我。

So she tried to trick me.

所以她試圖欺騙我。

Well, it's a pretty close, that would be a hard one.

嗯，這是一個相當接近的，這將是一個困難的問題。

But I didn't go to Ueno.

但我沒有去上野。

I went to kochi Machi recently and she was able to see that one.

我最近去了kochi Machi，她能看到那個人。

I also confirmed, uh, I went to report on the 29th, I did a live stream there and she confirmed that and then in the end I got my case back.

我也確認了，呃，我在29號去報案，我在那裡做了一個直播，她也確認了，然後最後我把我的案子拿回來了。

But yeah, a little bit of paperwork, not a lot of hassle.

但是，是的，有一點文書工作，沒有很多麻煩。

I wasn't surprised that it was, I'd be more surprised if it didn't turn up.

我對它的出現並不感到驚訝，如果它沒有出現，我會更加驚訝。

The hardest part was searching my house to make sure that my son Leo didn't take it and put it somewhere.

最困難的部分是搜索我的房子，以確保我的兒子Leo沒有把它拿走並放在某個地方。

But I was pretty sure I must have dropped it and I did police in Japan are the good guys here.

但我非常確定我一定是掉了，而且我確實在日本做了警察，是這裡的好人。

Okay, They're the good guys, they're gonna be sometimes a little bit nosey.

好吧，他們是好人，他們有時會有點多管閒事。

But there when I was leaving the Monza Nakako Coban, another younger police officer came up to me and he asked me, is this my wallet?

但在那裡，當我離開蒙扎中科班時，另一位年輕的警察走到我面前，他問我，這是我的錢包嗎？

And I told him no, I think I've already established that is my, my wallet, this is 10 minutes later and he goes, oh do you have your residence card?

我告訴他沒有，我想我已經確定那是我的，我的錢包，這是10分鐘後，他說，哦，你有你的居住卡嗎？

I showed them my, my driver's license.

我給他們看了我的，我的駕駛執照。

So I knew it was like this, this kind of secret random check.

所以我知道它是這樣的，這種祕密的隨機檢查。

I don't, I don't mind that much.

我不，我不太介意。

So I pulled out my residence card.

所以我掏出了我的居留卡。

He's like, okay, you didn't check the background, but I guess he just wanted to see if I, if I had it.

他說，好吧，你沒有檢查背景，但我猜他只是想看看我，我是否有這個能力。

So it's like a little sneaky stuff that they might do.

所以這就像他們可能做的一些偷偷摸摸的事情。

But you know, if you don't have anything to worry about, you don't want to act.

但是你知道，如果你沒有什麼可擔心的，你就不會想採取行動。

Um, oddly, this is the Fukuzawa show and they're all very nice in there, but police are police.

嗯，奇怪的是，這是福澤的表演，他們在裡面都很好，但警察就是警察。

I do look suspicious unshaven.

我不刮鬍子看起來確實很可疑。

Have you ever lost anything in Tokyo?

你在東京丟過東西嗎？

Have you ever lost anything traveling around?

你有沒有在旅行中丟失過東西？

Japan share your comments, share your experience down below because I think it's pretty interesting to hear about um, when you lose something in Japan, do you get it back?

日本分享你的評論，在下面分享你的經驗，因為我認為聽到嗯，當你在日本失去東西的時候，你能拿回來嗎，這很有趣。

And many times you actually do the last time I lost something of significance and this one was like, if I didn't get it back, I'd be okay with it.

而很多時候你實際上是這樣做的，上次我失去了一些有意義的東西，這次就像，如果我沒有拿回來，我也會無所謂的。

But I think I was curious to see if they, if they did have it and sure enough that they did, But if you don't, if I lost a a drone in 2017 when I was hitchhiking and Iwakuni down in Hiroshima prefecture, is that Yamaguchi in Iwakuni and uh, I just set it down and I forgot to pick it up again and it was gone when I realized that I went to the local police station and I told him what I lost and they confirmed that it was at the Iwakuni Main police office.

但我想我很好奇，想看看他們是否有，如果他們真的有，而且肯定他們有，但如果你沒有，如果我在2017年丟失了一架無人機，當時我在廣島縣的巖國搭車，就是巖國的山口，呃，我只是把它放下，我忘了再拿起來，當我意識到時，它已經不見了，我去了當地的警察局，我告訴他我丟失了什麼，他們證實它在巖國的主要警察辦公室。

Somebody had found it and returned it and I was in tears because that was a very expensive drone and uh, um, I didn't, there was no chance for me to buy a new one on that hitchhiking trip and I needed it for the documentary.

有人發現並歸還了它，我哭了，因為那是一架非常昂貴的無人機，呃，嗯，我沒有，我沒有機會在那次搭車旅行中買一個新的，我需要它來拍攝紀錄片。

I was glad that I got it back.

我很高興我拿回了它。

I don't think I would have gotten it back if it was another country.

如果是另一個國家，我想我不會把它拿回來。

It's just one of these things in Japan that um, I don't know, you really appreciate um, the little things that make Japan great.

這只是日本的這些事情之一，嗯，我不知道，你真的欣賞嗯，使日本偉大的小東西。

I know that it's not perfect because we have the entry ban.

我知道，這並不完美，因為我們有入境禁令。

We have lots of people waiting to come in the country.

我們有很多人在等著進入該國。

A lot of things don't make a lot of sense, but there's a lot of things that do make a lot of sense to me, the safety and the respect for personal belongings and the respect for each other, the respect for privacy, which is a big deal here.

很多事情沒有什麼意義，但有很多事情對我來說是有意義的，安全和對個人物品的尊重，以及對彼此的尊重，對隱私的尊重，這在這裡是個大問題。

Um, people just uh, you know, they're not very nosey.

人們只是......你知道，他們不是很愛管閒事。

I guess there's little things that you really, really like about Japan and there's lots of things that are annoying about Japan.

我想，日本有一些你非常、非常喜歡的小東西，也有很多讓人討厭的東西。

But when you're in a pinch in a situation like this, this is one of the things that you have a lot more success stories than you do failures.

但是，當你在這樣的情況下處於緊要關頭時，這就是你的成功案例比失敗案例多得多的事情之一。

So the lost and found is pretty interesting now if, if, if the police station doesn't have it or you can't confirm it, you need when you lose something.

所以失物招領現在相當有趣，如果，如果，如果警察局沒有，或者你不能確認，你需要當你丟失的東西。

The first thing you start thinking about is find ways before you go into the police station to confirm that it was yours.

你開始考慮的第一件事是在你進入警察局之前找到方法，以確認它是你的。

Meaning if you have pictures of it, if you have receipts of something that you purchased um if you have, you know any kind of proof that helps to uh expedite getting that item back to you because if they can't prove it then it becomes more complicated but I could prove it in this case to almost beyond a doubt like who the heck would know that they lost Asuka card in Tokyo which is very isolated to the Kagoshima region of Japan, it's like that's, that should have been a giveaway.

意思是說，如果你有照片，如果你有你購買的東西的收據，嗯，如果你有，你知道任何種類的證據，有助於呃加快把物品還給你，因為如果他們不能證明它，那麼它就會變得更加複雜，但在這種情況下，我可以證明它幾乎是毫無疑問的，比如誰會知道他們在東京丟失了Asuka卡，這與日本的鹿兒島地區非常孤立，這就像，這應該是一個贈品。

If you, if you, if there's a chance though, if it's been more than 24 hours that the item that's lost and found is going to be sent to the main lost and found center which is near the top ASCII in uh central Tokyo.

如果你，如果你，如果有機會，如果已經超過24小時，失物將被送到主要的失物招領中心，該中心位於東京市中心ASCII頂部附近。

It's more towards Ikebukuro side of the city.

它更傾向於池袋一側的城市。

This place I've been to once because I lost an item about 15 years ago and and was able to get it back of course and it just took a lot longer to track it because it had been a couple of days.

這個地方我去過一次，因為我在15年前丟失了一件物品，當然能夠找回來，只是因為已經過了幾天，花了很多時間來追蹤它。

Um It goes to the local police stations if you catch it in time and then after a while it moves over towards um the main lost and found and the respect for personal belongings is so deep you'll find umbrellas like $1 umbrellas and lost and found and they keep those for a designate a set amount of time before they end up throwing that away.

如果你及時抓住它，它就會被送到當地的警察局，然後過一段時間，它就會被轉移到主要的失物招領處，對個人物品的尊重是如此之深，你會發現雨傘，比如1美元的雨傘和失物招領處，他們在最後扔掉這些東西之前，會把它們保存在一個指定的時間內。

But for personal belongings um Yeah, you know, don't give up on it, is what I'm saying, They log it and track it and if you can describe it, you can find it here.

但對於個人物品，嗯，你知道，不要放棄它，這是我要說的，他們記錄並跟蹤它，如果你能描述它，你可以在這裡找到它。

Um Even cash, everybody knows the story.

嗯 即使是現金，大家都知道這個故事。

I think Tokyo returns like $84 million 10% of of it to the person who found it as a reward.

我認為東京將8400萬美元中的10%返還給發現它的人，作為獎勵。

There's some sort of um System in place for that too because you know, nobody has to return cash.

這方面也有某種嗯系統，因為你知道，沒有人必須歸還現金。

They do it because it's the right thing to do and there's a little bit of guilt if they didn't do it.

他們這樣做是因為這是正確的事情，如果他們沒有這樣做，就會有一點內疚。

But at the same time, I believe you, you give 10% of that to the person who found it.

但與此同時，我相信你，你把其中的10%給發現它的人。

When I got my drone back, it came with an address and I wrote that, that man in a letter and I said, thank you to him for finding the drone.

當我拿回我的無人機時，它有一個地址，我給那個人寫了一封信，我說，感謝他找到無人機。

And I sent him a gift from Hokkaido because I was hitchhiking when I got to the end of it from Wakanda, I sent him a package and uh, I didn't hear back from him, but yeah, I believe he got it and I'm glad that he returned it and I'm really thankful for that.

我還從北海道給他寄了一份禮物，因為我從瓦坎達走到盡頭的時候，我給他寄了一個包裹，呃，我沒有收到他的回信，但是，是的，我相信他收到了，我很高興他回信了，我真的很感激。

So, so there's my, there's my story.

所以，這是我的，這是我的故事。

If you have any questions, you can leave it in the comments below and I really do hope that if you've ever lost something, share that story with me in the comments below.

如果你有任何問題，可以在下面的評論中留下，我真的希望，如果你曾經失去過什麼，請在下面的評論中與我分享這個故事。

I think it's gonna be a pretty, I feel like I'm in uh in a pretty cool, a pretty cool movie or something.

我認為這將是一個非常，我覺得我在一個非常酷的，一個非常酷的電影或其他東西中。
