Chapter 370: Twists and Turns in Winning the Lottery

This day is the day of the lottery, and the time of the lottery is eight o'clock in the evening.

Tom kept that ticket in his wallet and had forgotten about it. However, his relationship with Luisa is getting closer and closer, and he is about to talk about marriage.

On this day, Luisa stayed at his home and did not go back. When it was close to eight o'clock, Luisa went to the kitchen to prepare a supper, suddenly remembered the lottery ticket that day, and asked, "Tom, I remember that day in the park, someone sold you a lottery ticket, right?"

Tom reclined on the couch, watching a football game, listened to Luisa's words, and casually responded: "Yes, Luisa, if you don't say it, I almost forgot about it." ”

Luisa looked at the time and reminded, "It's almost eight o'clock, Tom, let's take a look at the lottery draw." ”

Tom watched the football game, saw the excitement, was reluctant to change the channel, and felt that he would definitely not win, and reluctantly said: "Can't win, Luisa, it's in vain to watch." ”

Luisa said, "Take a look, it's not a big deal." ”

At this time, Tom's favorite team scored a goal, and Tom cheered happily, got up from his seat, waved his fist vigorously, and responded, "Okay." ”

As he spoke, he transferred the station to the lottery broadcast channel, and it happened that the channel was inserting advertisements, and Tom was thinking about the goal, so he quickly switched it back.

When Luisa came out of the kitchen, she asked, "Tom, have you seen it?"

At this time, it was past the lottery broadcast time, and Tom was so focused on watching football that he had forgotten to transfer the station back. But it was not good to disappoint Luisa, and replied, "Have you seen it?"

"How's that?" Luisa hurriedly asked.

"Didn't hit. Tom said casually.

"Oh!" Luisa was slightly disappointed, but she didn't give up, and asked again, "Didn't you hit a single number?"

Tom's eyes stayed on the TV and said absentmindedly, "I won two numbers, but not including special numbers." ”

"Oh!" Luisa finally gave up on winning the lottery and only hit two numbers, which is the same as not winning if the special number is not included.

That night passed like that, the next day. Tom and Luisa both go to work. After hours. When Luisa returns to her house, Lucy comes to her door and asks her to go shopping with her.

There are also shopping malls in the hot spring town, but they are smaller. Due to the proximity of the hot spring town to the city. Bulk shopping. The two of them never came here to buy anything. Only some everyday items. will come here to purchase.

In front of them, there were two people, a man and a woman. At first glance, you know that it is a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship. Immediately after that, a man and a woman came from the other side.

As soon as these two pairs of men and women met, they heard one man say to the other: "Have you heard? Man, this jackpot has appeared in our U City." ”

Another man said, "Isn't the guy who won the lottery in U City developed?"

The man from before said: "Isn't it? The prize pool of more than 100 million yuan was won by him alone." ”

Another man said, "This guy is so lucky, I can't help but be jealous of him." God, hundreds of millions, you can't spend it in a lifetime. ”

When Louisa heard this, she couldn't help but shake her head, it was a pity that Tom didn't hit. He has always wanted to open a welfare mad dog shelter, and if he wins, the mad dog shelter will not be easy to open.

Lucy couldn't help but be curious: "Luisa, I remember that day in the park, that homeless man named Mike sold a lottery ticket to Tom, right?"

"Yes, Lucy. Luisa nodded.

Lucy continued to ask: "Has he seen it? Has he won the lottery? Even if he doesn't win the jackpot, he wins a second prize, the third prize is good, even if it is the third prize, there are tens of thousands of yuan." ”

Luisa shook her head and said, "I didn't hit, he said it, I didn't hit anything." ”

"It's a shame. Lucy said with regret.

The two men and women in front of them apparently heard their conversation, and at the same time turned back to the man who had spoken earlier, and said, "You also buy lottery tickets?"

Luisa shook her head, "No, it's my boyfriend, someone else...... Someone else sold it to him. ”

Another man also asked, "Did you get it?"

Luisa shook her head again, "Missed." ”

"It's a shame. The man sighed, and continued: "I don't know which rough guy won this award, and there is no news of him until now." ”

"Really?" said Louisa absently.

"Isn't it?" said the man, "I have already said this afternoon's news, and I guess I will say it again in the evening." It's really strange that someone has won more than 100 million yuan in bonuses, and I don't know how to get it, is this person crazy? God, if it were me, I would have gone and received the prize money back on the night of the broadcast. Of course, the premise is that the fucai company opens the door. ”

"Don't be delusional. The other man smiled and said, "Tom, your luck is worse than mine, in this life, don't even think about winning the jackpot of 100 million." ”

Louisa heard that the man was called Tom, the same name as her boyfriend, and couldn't help but look at the 'Tom' more.

The 'Tom' listened to his friend's quip, but did not get angry, and responded with a smile, "My luck is bad, aren't you the same?"

His friend said: "The probability is too low, unless there is a pie in the sky, how can it be so easy to win the lottery?"

Then he nodded to Luisa and Lucy, and walked away with his friends.

Luisa and Lucy went shopping, and when they were done, they went home. Back at home, Louisa called Tom again and chatted for a while.

Then turn on the TV, and the news about the winning lottery is playing on the TV. A young female reporter with a microphone in her hand stands at the door of a welfare lottery sales point, interviewing the staff of the sales point, a petite mixed-race girl named Josh.

But the female reporter said, "Hey, Josh, hello." ”

Josh said, "Hello, ma'am. ”

The female reporter said, "Josh, I want to ask you." That winning ticket was sold from your store, right?"

Josh said, "Yes, ma'am, that ticket, if nothing else, I sold it myself." ”

The female reporter said, "Do you know who bought it? ”

Josh shook his head and said, "Sorry, there are so many people who buy lottery tickets every day, I can't remember every single one." By the way, the winning numbers of that ticket were randomly typed. It was sold at 7:43 a.m. on December 17. ”

"December 17th?" Louisa had a look of remembrance on her face. "Wasn't that the day in Lossy Park? Tom was late, and the homeless man named Mike sold him a lottery ticket that he had gotten from someone else. ”

Then he shook his head again, and the look of disappointment on his face became even thicker. "It's a shame. Although it was the same day. It's not the same one. ”

"I remember it well, Josh. The female reporter praised the saleswoman, and then jokingly said: "It's a pity that the one who bought the lottery ticket." I don't know if it's Mr. or Madam, but I forgot about it. ”

After a pause, he said: "Friendly reminder to this gentleman,If you see our interview,Please go to the fucai company as soon as possible to redeem lottery tickets." The winning numbers for this draw were, 4, 8, 11, 16, 30, 31. ”

With the TV turned off, Luisa felt a little uneasy in her heart, but she couldn't say where this uneasiness was. After thinking about it for a while, she called Tom again, and the two talked for a long time, and she didn't think clearly why she felt uneasy.

I slept nervously this night, and when I woke up the next day, I felt uncomfortable and had a very heavy feeling. It turned out that I didn't sleep well last night, and I accidentally caught a cold.

As soon as she told Tom on the phone, Tom decided to come over and accompany her. Both took leave, and Tom took Luisa to the hospital for a check-up. Fortunately, the condition was not serious, and the doctor prescribed side medicine.

When he was taking out the medicine and paying for it, Tom took out his wallet and was about to withdraw the money, when Luisa glanced into his wallet and saw the lottery ticket sandwiched in the mezzanine.

"Tom, you still have this ticket. Luisa said in surprise.

"Oh!" Tom reacted, taking the money out of his wallet and placing it on the counter. He took out the ticket again and was about to throw it away.

"Let me see. Luisa drank him.

"What's so nice about not winning?" said Tom casually, still handing the ticket to Luisa.

"4, 8, 11, 16, 30, 31, these numbers feel so familiar. ”

Luisa held the lottery ticket in her hand, and the more she looked at it, the more familiar it felt, as if she had seen it all somewhere, and couldn't help but ask Tom, "Tom, have you really watched the lottery broadcast that night, and really only won two numbers?"

At this time, Tom happened to pay the money and put the recovered money back into his wallet, seeing that Luisa asked so seriously, he felt that he had deceived her, and was a little embarrassed, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Luisa, that night, actually...... Actually, I forgot to watch the lottery broadcast. ”

"You forgot to read it, Tom, you can't be joking with me, are you?" Luisa listened to Tom's words, and felt that her whole person instantly became more energetic, this set of numbers, the more you look at it, the more familiar it becomes, and the more you look at it, the more it feels like the winning numbers of this issue.

"It's true, Luisa. Tom looked ashamed, "That day, I was just watching the football game, and when you told me, it happened to be a goal." I changed the channel, and I happened to see the interstitial advertisement, so I switched the station back again, but this time I switched back, and when I watched the football, I forgot about the winning broadcast. ”

"So, you didn't even read the winning announcement that day, did you? Luisa's expression suddenly became excited, and she felt that her heart was beating so hard that it seemed that it might jump out of her chest at any moment.

Tom was ashamed: "Yes, Luisa. ”

"So, you lied to me that you told me that you hit two numbers that day?" asked Luisa again.

Tom hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, Luisa. ”

"No, you're not sorry for me, Tom. Luisa cried out, "You're almost ......" At this point, she suddenly thought of something and quickly stopped.

"Almost what?" asked Tom hurriedly.

Luisa glanced at the numbers on the ticket again, not sure if it was really this group, so she kept silent, "Go back and see." She cried out and said anxiously, "I ask to go back." Immediately, immediately. ”

Tom said: "Okay, I'll take you back immediately, anyway, the medicine has been bought, and when you get home, you just need to rest and take some medicine." ”

Luisa exclaimed, "I feel like I'm fine now. Hurry up, Tom, I'm going to go crazy if I don't go back. Meow, meow, I'm going to bite. "Excited. I can't help but dance. Learn the sounds of various animals, stretch out your paws, and grab Tom.

"Okay, okay. I'm going to drive. ”

Tom drove the car. Send Luisa back to her home.

As soon as Luisa entered the house. He rushed to his room. Tom hurriedly followed and asked, "Luisa, what are you going to do?"

Louisa didn't look back. "Look at the winning numbers for this draw, Tom. ”

She sat down in front of the computer,Turn on the computer,Ready to log on to the fucai company's website。

Tom stood behind her and said disappreciatively, "No, Luisa." ”

Luisa said: "I bet, Tom, this ticket, if not the jackpot, is at least a second prize, or a third prize." Oh, why do these numbers all sound familiar to me? I have a hunch, Tom, this is the jackpot ticket, and you almost missed out on a jackpot. And this award is enough for you to realize your ideals and open a mad dog shelter. ”

Tom smiled, "My dear Louisa, it's you who are too attached to it. You know, this lottery ticket was just sold to me by a homeless man, and its price was still discounted, and it only cost me four dollars. If this could be successful, that homeless man would have become the richest man in the world long ago. ”

At this time, the computer is still turning on. Luisa turned her head and said seriously, "It doesn't matter who sold it to you. The reason why that homeless man sold you this lottery ticket is because he was destined not to be rich. There are so many people in Rocky Park, this winning ticket has just fallen into your hands, who dares to say that this is not a gift from God?"

Tom said, "It's fatalism, Luisa. However, this lottery hasn't won yet, so don't be too happy. ”

Luisa's tone remained firm, "I have a hunch that this ticket must be the jackpot." Do you know what that means? Tom. ”

Tom smiled, "That means you're going to have a good time." ”

Luisa was not angry either, and shook her head, "No, no, Tom, that means more than 100 million dollars. And you, almost missed it, missed the gift of God, because of your negligence. ”

Tom said indifferently: "These words, let's wait until they are really hit." You'll know the result right away, anyway. ”

Luisa said unconvinced: "This sentence is exactly what I want to say to you, Tom, anyway, you will know the result soon." ”

At this time,The computer is turned on,Luisa clicked on the web page,Enter the home page of the fucai company,Then go to search for the winning number of this issue.

Fucai company above the winning number,Deliberately displayed in red font,Prompting this issue of the jackpot has not been claimed yet,Let the winner see,Come and receive it as soon as possible.

Luisa didn't care about looking at these, and went directly to look at the winning numbers announced below, and under this look, she couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

I opened the lottery ticket at a very fast speed, looked at the top of the ticket, and just saw the contents on it, I couldn't help but take another breath of cold air.

"Oh my God!" she couldn't help but scream, and in disbelief, she went to compare the numbers on the two things. One glance at the computer screen, another look at the lottery ticket, one look at the lottery ticket, another look at the computer screen, and read out loud, "4, 4, 8, 8, 11, 11, 16, 16, 30, 30, 31, 31." Oh my God, it's exactly the same, and that's the winning number. Tom, Tom. ”

She was about to turn back to look at Tom, but suddenly there was a 'plop' behind her, and Tom fell straight down, and he fainted with joy.

"Tom, Tom. Louisa clutched the lottery ticket in her hand and crouched down to check on Tom, who grabbed Tom's clothes and shook them.

It took a long time for Tom to come to his senses and look dazed, "I... I won the lottery?"

"We won the lottery, Tom. Luisa smiled and quickly reminded him.

"Yes, we ...... We won the lottery? Tom's expression was dumbfounded, apparently not believing this fact, and he thought he was in a dream.

Luisa hurriedly said, "Yes, Tom." We won the jackpot, and you, because of your carelessness, almost missed the jackpot. ”

"Incredible!" Tom finally breathed, "it's a gift from God." ”

Luisa winked mischievously at him, "Look, I just said that, and you didn't recognize it at the time. ”

Tom got up from the ground and cried out, "God, my ideals, my mad dog shelter, my future, my Louisa." God, God is beginning to favor poor Tom. I'm so happy, haha! Luisa, my Luisa, let's go claim the prize. ”

Luisa also said: "Yes, let's take the award." ”

The two of them happily walked out of the door and got into the car, Tom's hands trembled, and he tried to start the car, but his hands were shaking so badly that he couldn't start it.

"What's wrong? Tom. Luisa hurriedly asked.

"Damn, I found out I couldn't drive. Tom scolded.

"Haha! You're so useless, let me do it. With joy in her heart, Louisa couldn't help but tease him.

Tom got out of the driver's seat, went around to the other side, and opened the door, "Here you go." ”

Luisa had already moved to the driver's seat, and Tom sat down in the passenger seat and shouted, "Luisa, baby, bring that ticket and let me see it." ”

"Haha, when you were in the hospital, you still wanted to throw it away. Luisa smiled and handed it the crumpled lottery ticket in her palm.

Tom unfolded the ticket, leaned over to his mouth and kissed it, "Now, I'd rather throw myself away than throw it away." In my heart, no one can compare...... No, no one but my baby Louisa is as important as it, it is the second most important in my heart. (To be continued......)
