| About a year ago,I went to stay at a Detroit hotel.I didn't want to carry too much money with me,so I asked the desk clerk to put a hundred- dollar bill in the safe for me. The next morning,however,the clerk said he knew nothing about my money.I didn't have any proof (证 据) that I had given the man the money.There was nothing I could do but go to the nearest lawyer. The lawyer advised me to return to the hotel with him and give another hundred-dollar bill to the clerk. This I did.An hour later,I went back to the desk and asked for my money.Because I had the lawyer as an eyewitness to the second hundred-dollar bill,the clerk could not say he knew nothing about it. Another hour later,I put the second part of the lawyer's plan into action.This time both the lawyer and I went to the hotel.I asked for the hundred-dollar bill once again,and when the clerk insisted he had already given it to me,I denied (否认) it.The lawyer said to him,"I saw this gentleman give you a hundred dollars. If you don't return it immediately,I'll be forced to call the police." The clerk realized he had been tricked,so he gave me back the first hundred-dollar bill. "I don't know how to thank you enough for getting my money back," I said to the lawyer.And what you suppose he answered?He said,"Oh,don't thank me.That will be a hundred dollars,please." | |
