At that moment, all students were shocked including Alexander, who poured something into a glass of water that was on the teacher&#39;s desk. He couldn&rsquo;t explain why Mr Ip would be invisible after taking a sip of the water during lessons. The water didn&#39;t affect his clothes and spectacles, so his clothes and spectacles danced as he moved about. <\/p>\n<p>We didn&#39;t know what we should and we could do. Suddenly, we all noticed one thing. A representative of HK Education Bureau was coming to visit our lesson. It was very urgent, because the representative would come the next lesson, which was about 20 minutes later. I rushed to Alexander immediately. <\/p>\n<p>&#39;Why are you shocked? We all know that it&rsquo;s you who do this!&#39; I asked.<br \/>&#39;I don&#39;t know! When I came to school this morning, someone gave me money and asked me to do this. As all of you know, my family is very poor. Therefore, I took the money and &hellip; But I really had no idea that it would be like this.&#39; <br \/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br \/>We were all silent at the moment. Mr Ip said, &#39;I know what I should do now. Monitor, please get a mask from the office and also take the sunglasses from my seat? And you Peter, could you lend me your gloves? Thank you.&#39;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Fortunately, we could prepare all the things before the representative came. When she came in, she was shocked too. <\/p>\n<p>&#39;Well, I didn&#39;t know that I need to visit a mummy&#39;s lessons. Are you acting Michael Jackson?&#39; the representative asked<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#39;You are quite funny, miss, I dressed like this due to some accident. My face was burnt when I cooked last week. I will be fine after a few weeks, as the doctor said. I&rsquo;m afraid that my face will scare you and my students. That&rsquo;s why I dress like this.&#39; Mr Ip replied calmly.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Finally, the lesson was very smooth. After the lesson, the representative gave us very good comments. She praised that we were clever and active and we made a good impression on her and she said goodbye to us. But when she was leaving, she beamed and told Mr Ip, &#39;Trust me , you will be fine after today.&#39; <br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Suddenly, we realized who had played the trick on Mr Ip. But why did he do that? Who knows? <br \/>&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One day Alexander came in with a peculiar bottle.
