7. Try your luck
"Thunder? Little cops? Why are you two here?!!! Zhu Yue also saw me and Tang Hui at this time, and asked in surprise.
"I'm supposed to ask you this question, right?" I asked rhetorically, then walked around the full table and guests in the hall and came to Zhu Yue's side and said, "My house is here, so it's normal for the two of us to appear here, but why did you come all the way to the northeast again?" ”
"So your family lives here?"
"Let my family's questions go first, answer my questions first, why did you come here?"
Zhu Yue smiled at me and shook the coin in his hand again, "For it." ”
"Lucky coins? Do you know this in Hangzhou? ”
Zhu Yue was just about to open his mouth to answer, when the annoying voice of the Mediterranean came from behind me and said, "Congratulations, congratulations!" Congratulations to this guest for becoming the first lucky customer of our store today, and I wish you good luck and fortune in the Year of the Horse. ”
The ground shouted while shouting and walked over to shake Zhu Yue's hand, and then beckoned the people in the store to come over and take a photo of Zhu Yue as a souvenir.
Zhu Yue completed the process very cooperatively, and then had time to answer my question: "This year I was promoted, deputy editor-in-chief, since I was promoted, I have to play an exemplary role for my subordinates, so I took the lead in coming to the Northeast, because a friend of mine told me that there is a particularly famous dumpling restaurant here, saying that as long as someone eats a lucky coin in the dumplings, good luck will always follow this person, it is said that at the beginning of this year, you have won a five-note jackpot in this city, all related to this dumpling!" ”
"You've got a lot of friends! But this time your friend didn't give you the exact news, this dumpling restaurant has nothing to do with the lucky event. ”
"It doesn't matter at all? Are you sure?! Zhu Yue asked with a skeptical attitude.
"We're here for this, and I know the inside story that your friend doesn't know." I deliberately hung Zhu Yue's appetite and said.
Zhu Yue really liked me very much, she immediately opened her eyes wide and asked, "What's the inside story?!! ”
I looked around, the people eating in the hall were all looking at us, and it was clearly not a good place to talk about gods and demons and monsters.
So I pointed to the door, "Let's change places, it's not convenient." ”
"Good!"
Zhu Yue answered dryly, then took her handbag, patted the shoulder of the little girl in the seat opposite her, and said, "Let's go, there are new clues to chase!" ”
"Oh, Haode." The girl said yes and carried a camera, a backpack, and so on on her shoulders.
This really surprised me.
Zhu Yue was a loner no matter where she went before, and she had the demeanor of a lonely woman, but this time she actually brought a little follower by her side?
After coming out of the hotel, I immediately asked Zhu Yue who the girl was.
Zhu Yue said that it was a new photographer recruited by her magazine this year, and she felt that this girl was very clever, so she took her out for a spin, firstly, it was an investigation of this intern photographer, and secondly, the editor-in-chief wanted to examine Zhu Yue's ability to lead the team as an associate editor-in-chief.
After introducing these basic information, the girl also smiled at me and Tang Hui and nodded, "My name is Li Xueying, and I have heard of the two big names for a long time." With that, she held out her right hand to me.
I quickly shook her hand and asked, "Have you heard of me?" ”
"Well, I've been listening to Sister Yue tell you about your previous adventures along the way. You should be Detective Thunder, I think it should be the Tang police officer who doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade at all, but is very responsible at a critical time, right? Li Xueying turned the conversation to Tang Hui and stretched out her hand to him.
Li Xueying's evaluation must have come from Zhu Yue's mouth, and Tang Hui seemed to like this evaluation as well. He responded with a smile and shook Li Xueying's hand, and he gave the word "xiexie" to Zhu Yue on the side.
Zhu Yue accepted Tang Hui's thanks very freely and generously, and then asked Tang Hui: "Tell me now, how much do you know about lucky coins?" ”
"The lucky coin was made by the owner of this dumpling restaurant himself, and the only good luck this coin gives you is that you don't have to spend money on this meal, that's all! As for the five consecutive jackpots you said...... I paused for a moment, and then continued to explain: "This one does exist, but there is another thing that no one knows about, the five people who won the lottery all died, and basically died not long after winning the lottery." That's why we're looking into it. ”
"All dead? No way? The smile that had been hanging on Zhu Yue's face disappeared in an instant, and at the same time, she also looked down at the lucky coin in her hand, "Then ...... this lucky coin?"
"Tang Hui and I thought it was caused by this coin at first, but we just went to the owner of the dumpling restaurant, and he took pictures of all the people who ate lucky coins from him, but only one of the five winners was in these photos." I said.
"So I've spent all three days?" Zhu Yue glanced at the lucky coin in his hand again.
"Three days? You said you've been eating dumplings here for three days? I exclaimed.
"Hmm." Li Xueying replied instead of Zhu Yue: "If Sister Yue doesn't eat this coin again, I will really vomit." ”
"Okay, now that you're both liberated, you don't have to eat dumplings anymore."
"No way!" Zhu Yue suddenly said in a firm tone.
"Huh? What's not to do? Can't you skip dumplings? I asked.
"It's not! I mean, I managed to get this lucky prize, and I'll have to try my luck! ”
I really didn't know that Zhu Yue still had such a childish side, so I simply followed her meaning and said, "Then how are you going to try?" ”
"Or ...... Buying a lottery ticket? Do you have scratch cards here? ”
"Yes! Find a lottery station and you'll have it! I replied as I turned my head left and right to look for it, and there was a lottery station across the street that looked like it was a big one. I pointed to that side, "That's it." ”
“OK! Walking! ”
Zhu Yue answered and couldn't wait to cross the road and go straight to the lottery station.
As soon as a few of us entered the door, a middle-aged male clerk in the lottery station smiled at us and said, "It seems that you have eaten lucky coins in the dumpling king to try your luck, right?" ”
"How do you know?" I laughed.
"Ahem~, that's not simple, you can see it at a glance, my family will come three waves of people every day, and they are all the same as your expression. But I'm not pouring cold water on you, that lucky coin, hmph, it doesn't seem to work that much. ”
After the male clerk finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Yue with a wicked smile, as if he was about to read a joke.
"It's strange that you're a person, if we say something nice we might buy more, aren't you smashing your own business?" I asked.
"Haha." The middle-aged man looked up again and daxiao, "If I advise you not to buy it, will you turn around and leave?" ”
He really stopped me from asking this question, and I turned my head to look at Zhu Yue.
Sure enough, Zhu Yue immediately shook his head, "No!" If you don't try your luck, how can you just go! Here, get me twenty scratch cards first! ”
"Okay, here's it, pick it." The middle-aged male clerk responded as he put a square carton on the counter.
