Future News: My Phone Mutated

The boss slapped his thigh. "That's right!"

"Speaking of which, Old Zhang is really persistent. He hasn't won the lottery in 30 years, yet he still insists on betting and no matter how others try to persuade him, he won't change the number!"

"Let me tell you, just from the numbers I have in my collection, a few of them have already appeared in the draw two or three times."

"Although they were all numbers for the unremarkable last prize, they are still considered to be winning numbers, right?"

"I've tried to persuade Old Zhang to change his number many times. Even if he chooses one of my lucky numbers, wouldn't it be better than his number which has never won in decades?"

"But he won't listen to me! No matter what I say, it's useless! I've never met anyone more stubborn than him!"

The mention of Old Zhang seemed to have opened the floodgates of the owner's rattling and he couldn't stop complaining.

Lin Bai was forced to listen to a bellyful of gossip.

In order to not make the boss suspect anything, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and pretend to be interested. It seemed that he came to inquire about Old Zhang Out of curiosity.

Otherwise, when the news reported tomorrow that a mysterious person had bought the same number as Old Zhang and won more than him, the boss of the lottery station could guess it was him with his toes!

Would he still have a peaceful life in the future?

Lin Bai patiently listened to the owner tell the story behind Old Zhang's number, then pretended to be satisfied and left.

When he got home, he rummaged through the closet for a long time before he found an old set of clothes.

It was a set of rock and roll leather jacket and pants that his roommate, who loved rock music, urged him to buy when he was just in college.

There were also a bunch of messy metal chains.

Ever since he had bought this outfit, Lin Bai had not worn it once. Every time he saw it, he regretted it so much but he could not bear to throw it away because he felt like he would be throwing money away if he did so.

Therefore, he decided to keep it at the bottom of the pile of his clothes. Out of sight, out of mind.

He did not expect it to be of great use now.

After Lin Bai changed his clothes, he looked in the mirror and could not help but laugh out loud.

The man in the mirror had his hair up to the sky. He was wearing a leather jacket, leather pants, and studded boots. He had a skull necklace around his neck, a leather rope wrapped around his wrist, and a metal chain around his belt. He was also wearing a bunch of pendants.

Lin Bai almost couldn't recognize himself based on his current appearance.

"Very good, this is the effect I want."

Lin Bai put on his mask and rummaged through the large sunglasses that had been left unused for a few years in the drawer. He covered his face well before leaving the house in satisfaction.

In order to prevent his real address from being discovered, he even took a taxi across half the city to another betting station to buy lottery tickets.

This time, Lin Bai did not say a word. He entered the door and handed the pre-written number to the boss. He said softly, "Boss, this number, 100 bets, thank you."

The boss stared at Lin Bai's strange outfit for a long time before he came back to his senses.

Perhaps to ease the awkward atmosphere, the boss deliberately laughed and teased him.

"Handsome, you invested 200 yuan in a big business deal worth 5 million yuan! 25,000 times the profit, awesome!"

Lin Bai suppressed his voice and laughed.

"Thank you, Boss. Thank you for your kind words."

Then, he took the printed lottery ticket and turned around to leave, not staying for a single second.

Moreover, he was extra careful. He deliberately avoided the cameras by the roadside and entered a small alley. He tore off his coat and threw the scattered accessories on his body away. Then, he took a taxi home wearing only the short-sleeved T-shirt inside.

He had used all the anti-tracking methods that could be used. Now, he could only wait for the lottery draw tomorrow.

"Whether I can become a millionaire or not depends on whether I made the right bet this time!"

Lin Bai held his phone and whispered to the "Future news"icon on the screen.

"Don't let me down..."

He didn't sleep all night.

Finally, it was time for the lottery the next night. Lin Bai was waiting in front of his computer, refreshing the page again and again, waiting for the result of the lottery.

"The first number is correct."

"The second number is correct too."

"The third number is correct."

"The fourth number..."

Lin Bai's heart was beating faster and faster, constantly comparing the numbers on the page with the lottery ticket in his hand.

Only when he was sure that all the numbers were correct did he grab his phone and kiss the screen hard.

"You're really a treasure! I love you so much!!"

At this moment, Lin Bai finally believed that he had the ability to predict the future.

If he used it properly, his future would be limitless!

He couldn't help but imagine what he could do with this ability. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became!

At the same time, there was someone in the residential estate who was even more excited than him.

It was Old Zhang, who had worked hard for thirty years and finally won the first prize.

"Honey! I won the prize! You always say that I waste money. Look, haven't I recouped all our losses in one go? I even profited!"

"Son, son! Look! Dad won the prize! Do you want to get a new computer? Do you want to get a new phone? I will buy it for you!"

"My dear granddaughter, come and let Grandpa hug You! I've won the prize! I'll take you to the park tomorrow, okay?"

"Oh, no, no, I have to redeem the prize tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, I'll take you to the park the day after tomorrow, hahahaha..."

When he found out that he had won the prize, Old Zhang immediately raised the lottery ticket and told his family the good news one by one.

In the past thirty years, he had received too many accusations and doubts. Now that he had finally made a comeback, he had to seize the opportunity!

After showing off in front of his family, Old Zhang was still not satisfied. He took out his phone and called the contacts one by one.

"Hello, Old Zhang, I have good news for you. I've won the lottery! hahahaha..."

"Old Li, I've won the Lottery!"

"Old Zhao..."

In the end, his son couldn't stand it anymore and took the opportunity to persuade him.

"Dad, I understand how you feel, but we have to keep a low profile. Aren't you afraid that others will be jealous? Aren't you afraid that everyone will come to borrow money from you?"

Old Li waved his hand and said generously, "I'm not afraid! The prize money is huge!"

His wife scolded him, "It's only 50,000 yuan, look at you showing off! Those who don't know would think that you won five million!"

Old Li's neck stiffened and he said unwillingly, "So what if it's 50,000 yuan? 50,000 yuan isn't money anymore?"

"Money is worth less and less nowadays. So what if it's 50,000 yuan?"

Seeing that the old couple were about to quarrel again, their son quickly tried to stop them from quarreling. He tried to appease them both. He was really exhausted.

He was tired. Old Zhang was furious.

The joy of winning the big prize was instantly dispersed by this disturbance. It made him very unhappy.

The more Old Zhang thought about it, the more unconvinced he became.

"It's not easy to win the grand prize once, why can't people know about it? I didn't steal anything, why can't I say that?"

"I just want to say it!"
