Chapter 1025 - 466: Not Only Is the Cup Missing a Mouth, Its Bottom Is Leaking
Absolutely no disappointment due to the small size of the gold; if it were large, it would seem ridiculous.Besides, an 80-unit prize at a small New Year school event definitely counts as a big win.
In the school cafeteria, a meal with one meat and one vegetable costs less than ten units, easily covering half a week’s living expenses.
"Are you two interested? All the projects in our class are purely luck-based, and it’s not just what’s displayed on the wall. We’ve prepared two gold chip grand prizes, and so far, no luck champions have succeeded in claiming them! The odds are high!" The classmate at the door enthusiastically recruited guests.
"What does it take to win them?"
"Just join this big spinning wheel, in the gift blind box, you have a chance to win a gold chip, like the one displayed on the wall; in the hole-in-the-wall blind box, you have a chance to win another placed inside!"
Indeed, inside the classroom, there was a large spinning wheel divided into several sections—
"Gift Blind Box Raffle Chance", "Hole-in-the-wall Blind Box Raffle Chance", "Spin Again", "Snacks", "Class 19 Milk Tea 3-unit Discount Coupon", "Class 11 Cotton Candy Buy Large Get Small Coupon (on the first floor)", "Thanks for Participating".
Seeing the collaborative prizes with Class 19 and Class 11, Lin Li and Bai Bufan exchanged knowing glances and chuckled.
Class 20 has some interesting tricks up its sleeve, being able to include these prizes; it seems they approached other classes for ’sponsorship’ before the event, quite shrewd.
Also, an equally interesting point is that the first two borders are gold, the latter four are purple, yet these six prize sections are evenly sized with not much difference among them.
However, the theoretically most profitable "Thanks for Participating" section for Class 20 is bordered by the unlucky black, occupying only about 15° in the spinning wheel’s 360°, dramatically smaller than other sections.
If you land on "Thanks for Participating", in a way, it’s like winning the jackpot by snagging a lump of feces.
It feels as if Class 20 set up this section not to make money, but to see who could be so unlucky, embodying a bit of a prankster’s spirit.
"How much to spin once?" Lin Li asked.
"Three units per spin, ten units for three spins."
"You guys really know how to do business; shall we give it a try?" Lin Li looked at Bai Bufan.
"Let’s play." Bai Bufan nodded, finding it interesting too.
After paying, Lin Li decided to go first.
With a little effort, the wheel began spinning rapidly.
Lin Li didn’t use any abilities or magic treasures to intervene; doing so would be pointless, and there was no mission or need.
He patiently awaited the result.
His luck was reasonably good; the pointer stopped at the golden "Hole-in-the-wall Blind Box Raffle Chance".
"Congratulations, you’ve got a chance to play hole-in-the-wall!"
The male classmate quickly ushered Lin Li to another table with two large hole-in-the-wall boards and gestured for him to proceed:
"Come on, choose your spot and poke it open to claim your prize!"
The hole-in-the-wall, as explained, is a foam box or plastic box covered with a layer of wrapping paper, where players poke through small panels or holes to obtain prizes.
A few holes had been poked open on the board; Lin Li pondered for a while, then chose the largest hole.
Rather than scanning it with his Divine Sense, Lin Li figured the gold chip is small, so Class 20 might have deliberately placed it in the largest spot.
His index finger easily punctured the wrapping paper, and Lin Li raised an eyebrow with excitement—"Bufan, I’ve felt a flat little plastic box!!"
Just as he thought, inside the huge spot, there was merely a tiny flat plastic shell!
Could it be—
He truly was the chosen one?
"Really? Don’t mess around, if you actually got it, I’d be gutted." Bai Bufan’s eyes widened.
Without much suspense, Lin Li retrieved the flat box from the hole!
Wow! Gold... oh dammit, why is it silver?
Inside the plastic little box, was a one-unit coin.
Lin Li: "..."
Oh crap!
Class 20 is so mischievous!
Just as Lin Li was about to spread his hands in resigned amusement, showing he had fallen for the trick, the usher excitedly applauded:
"Congratulations! Congratulations! You’ve won a rare misprinted coin!"
The other Class 20 students followed suit, applauding as the atmosphere group.
"Congratulations, congratulations!"
Lin Li: O.o?
Indeed, if it were an ordinary one-unit coin, why place it in a plastic box?
Lin Li scrutinized the coin in his hand for a while before curiously inquiring, "Where is the misprint?"
Classmate: "Didn’t you notice? The front of this one-unit coin was misprinted on the back, and the back misprinted on the front, very obvious error."
Lin Li, Bai Bufan: "(;☉_☉)?"
