Last month some thieves stole a valuable teapot from a museum in Hong Kong. They took the teapot to America, but the American police found it. The museum sent Mr. Chan, a member of the museum staff, to collect the teapot. On the plane back to Hong Kong, he noticed two men. They were watching him closely.

“Perhaps they’re going to steal the teapot again. I must think of a plan,” he thought.

Mr. Chan’s daughter, Amy, met him at Hong Kong International Airport afterwards. Mr. Chan was carrying two boxes. He gave his daughter the pink box and said to her in a low voice, “Take this gift box home with great care.” He walked away with the brown one. The two men followed him.

Amy opened the box at home. She was expecting a pair of sports shoes, but she just found an old teapot. “This is not a very interesting gift,” said Amy, a bit disappointed. “That’s all right. Let’s make some tea in it,” said her mother. Then they found a note in the teapot. It said, “Dear Amy, call the police right now. Take care of the teapot. Love Dad.”

The two men kidnapped(绑架) Mr. Chan on his way to the museum.

They opened his box and found a pair of sports shoes inside. “Where is the teapot?” the two thieves shouted at the top of their voice with red faces. “How dare you cheat us? We saw you give your daughter a box at the airport. Come with us! We’re going to search your home,” one of them said.

When the thieves entered Mr. Chan’s flat, it was dark and quiet.All of a sudden, the door closed and the lights went on. The police were waiting inside.

Amy and her mother came out of the bedroom with the teapot. “That teapot is valuable,” said Mr. Chan. “A long time ago it belonged to an emperor. He drank tea from it.”

“We were going to drink tea from it, too,” said Amy, laughing.
