I had walked along the sea for about an hour until I began to feel hungry. It was seven. At that time, I was not far away from a favourite restaurant of mine, where I often went to eat two or three times a week. I knew the owner well.

I went into the restaurant, which was already crowded, and ordered my meat. While I was waiting, I looked 16   to see if I knew anyone in the restaurant. Then I saw a man sitting at a corner table near the door

keeping looking in my   17   , as if he knew me. I certainly didn't know him, for I never forgot a face. The man had a newspaper open in front of him. But I could see that he was keeping an      18      on me. When the waiter brought my soup, the man was clearly puzzled by the familiar way that the waiter and I called each other. He became even more puzzled as      19     went on. He could see that I was well      20     in the restaurant. At last he got up and went into the kitchen. After a few minutes he came out again, paid for his meal and left.

When I had finished, I called the owner of the restaurant over and asked him what the man had wanted. The owner told me he was a detective. "Really?" I was      21     . "He was certainly      22      in me. But why?" I asked. "He followed you because he thought you were a man he was looking for," the owner said. "When he came into the kitchen, he showed me a      23      of the man. He certainly looked like you! Of course, since we 24   you here, I told him that he had made a mistake." It was      25      I came to a restaurant where I was known, or I might have been arrested!
