    James agreed．One man came to sit down next to him and said that they were making a film named “The Magic Gloves”．The story was like “Harry Potter” and they were searching for an actor to play a magician（魔术师）．They would like to invite James to have a try．

going to leave Cbin8 in 3 days，he wanted to act out after dinner．The man agreed．

At 9：00 p．m．when James asked for the bill SO that he could go with the film-makers，the manager of Beijing Restaurant said sorry to him with a smile．“It’s April Fool’s Day joke! Your meal is free．Thank you．”

    James completely forgot about it but when he found that he was fooled，he didn’t leave at once．The waitress asked him if he needed any help．James said，”I was fooled once．I’m afraid the meal is not free．I am waiting for the bill to see if it is another joke．”
