an　bathroom。　As　I　walked　out；　I　looked　at　myself　in　the　mirror　and　shook　my　head　at　the　forgetful　fool　in　front　of　me。

你有錢包嗎？（2）

Now　all　I　could　hope　for　was　that　the　person　who　cleaned　the　restroom　had　found　my　wallet。　So　I　politely　approached　an　old　lady　reading　her　book　at　the　front　desk。　I　asked　her　if　a　wallet　had　been　found　in　the　bathroom　yesterday。　She　didn’t　answer　me　until　she　found　a　good　place　to　pull　herself　away　from　her　book。　Then　she　peered　at3　me　from　behind　the　thick　black　glasses　parked　on　her　nose。　Letting　out　a　quiet　sigh；　she　slowly　struggled　out　of　her　fortable　sitting　position。　She　walked　through　a　door　and　vanished4　for　a　moment。　Then　she　came　back　to　the　desk。
