Chapter 177: The Phenomenon Of A Full Moon
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the next day.
Lin Bai was watching the live broadcast of the lottery draw on his phone.
Small balls with numbers on them rolled out and gradually formed a complete set of numbers.
The numbers were exactly the same as those on the lottery ticket that Lin Bai bought yesterday.
The first prize.
The prize money was five million!
Lin Bai was very calm.
This was not the first time he had won the first prize.
When he had won the lottery last time, there was still some joy in his heart. This time, there was only calmness.
For the current Lin Bai, a mere five million was not worth taking to heart.
If there was anything that could affect his mood, it was that he was a little curious now and wanted to know what the driver’s reaction was now.
The driver was so certain that an ordinary person definitely had no chance of winning the lottery.
Now that he had won the first prize, he should be overjoyed to the point of going crazy, right?
As Lin Bai imagined this, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly.
When his roommate, Luo Yang, saw Lin Bai smiling at his phone, he came over with a gossipy expression and asked, “Boss, what are you so happy about? Don’t rejoice in secret. Tell us and let us be happy together!”
His other roommate, Zhu Kai, also joined in the fun, “Yeah, it’s better to be happy alone than to be happy together. Tell us!”
Lin Bai simply turned the phone around and pointed the screen at them, saying, “I was just bored watching the lottery draw and laughing casually.”
Unexpectedly, Zhu Kai became even more gossipy.
“What? Boss, you won the lottery?”
Luo Yang said, “Come on, with Boss’s wealth, how could he be interested in such a small amount of money?”
Zhu Kai said, “That’s different! Who would complain about having too much money? Boss, don’t you think so?”
In the end, the two of them looked at Lin Bai together, waiting for him to give an answer.
Lin Bai smiled faintly and said, “I really didn’t win. I’m just happy for the person who won.”
Zhu Kai asked, “How do you know that someone will definitely win this issue? Didn’t there often be cases where no one received the award after the award was given?”
“Maybe it’s just intuition,”Lin Bai replied casually.
Zhu Kai and Luo Yang did not continue to struggle. The two of them quickly changed the topic and chatted.
As they chatted, Luo Yang seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He slapped his thigh and said to Lin Bai, “Ah! I almost forgot! Boss, What’s in your cabinet? It was glowing in the middle of the night. I got up last night to go to the toilet and got a shock!”
“Fortunately, Sun Xiaogang has been sleeping in the hospital and didn’t stay in the dormitory. Otherwise, with his sleep quality, he would have been shaken up all night.”
Lin Bai was very surprised when he heard that.
“Glowing? Are you sure it was from my cabinet?”
Luo Yang answered with great certainty, “Of course I’m sure! It’s the light coming from the crack of the cabinet door. How could I be wrong?”
“Zhu Kai, you saw it too, right?”
Zhu Kai nodded hard at the side, “Yes, there was a white light and it was very bright.”
“Boss, did you forget to turn off the flashlight or something?”
Lin Bai was worried about how to explain, but Zhu Kai had already thought of a good reason for him to do so.
Thus, Lin Bai continued, “Ah, yes, it is indeed a flashlight. I was curious so I bought it for fun, but when I got it, I realized that it was malfunctioning. It often lights up for no reason.”
“I was planning to return the goods, but I forgot about it. After the return deadline, I just threw it in the cabinet. Sorry for scaring you guys.”
Luo Yang waved his hand. “Hey, why are you saying such polite things? We didn’t blame you. We just thought of it and casually mentioned it. It’s normal to receive faulty goods when you shop online.”
Zhu Kai said, “I get angry when I talk about this. The last time I bought it on…”
Lin Bai basically didn’t listen to the rest of their conversation.
Lin Bai’s mind was filled with thoughts about that Mayan prophecy tablet.
Because other than that, Lin Bai really couldn’t think of anything else that could shine in his cabinet.
Ever since he bought that Mayan prophecy tablet at Sotheby’s auction, Lin Bai hadn’t figured out what it could do.
He threw it into the cabinet and didn’t care about it anymore.
It wasn’t until he got Ling Xuewei’s necklace pendant from her that Lin Bai put the two together and tried to put them together.
It turned out that the two pieces were indeed one before, but they were broken later.
The two pieces in Lin Bai’s hand should only be a part of it. The complete tablet should be much bigger.
As for how many other pieces were left and where they were scattered, Lin Bai did not know.
Moreover, even if they were put together, Lin Bai still did not know how to use them.
So, he stuffed the large prophecy stone tablet back into the cabinet and turned the small pendant into a bracelet so that he could carry it around.
Last night, by chance, he had managed to find out the use of the pendant.
However, Lin Bai had never expected that the large stone tablet in the cabinet would glow on its own.
‘Could it be because of the full moon?’
Last night, the moon was full for the first time since Lin Bai had returned with the large stone tablet of prophecy.
Therefore, it was understandable that he could not figure out how to use it previously.
Of course, it was all Lin Bai’s own guess at the moment. Whether the truth was as he had guessed, he would have to wait until the next full moon before he had the chance to verify it.
Lin Bai was lost in his thoughts when Luo Yang suddenly patted him on the shoulder.
“Boss, what are you in a daze for? Didn’t you hear me calling you for a long time?” Luo Yang asked him.
Lin Bai smiled awkwardly and explained, “I was thinking about something just now, but I really didn’t hear you. What’s wrong?”
Luo Yang said, “Nothing, it’s just that little fatty from next door just sent us a text saying that it’s his birthday today and he’s going to sing all night with the entire dorm.”
“He also said that it would be livelier with more people, so he wants us to join him. Do you want to go?”
Lin Bai said, “If the two of you want to go, then go ahead. I’ll pass.”
Luo Yang didn’t force Lin Bai. He just said, “Alright, then we’ll go. Boss, if you there’s anything, just give us a call.”
“Okay.”
Lin Bai smiled as he watched Luo Yang and Zhu Kai leave. He sighed in his heart. His Luck was ridiculously good.
Just a moment ago, he was still thinking if he should take out the prophecy tablet and bask it in moonlight again tonight to see if it would still glow.
However, he felt that it was not convenient. He was afraid that Luo Yang and Zhu Kai would see it and he would not be able to explain it then.
Just as he was about to dispel his thoughts, Luo Yang and Zhu Kai were all called away by the little fatty next door. Moreover, they would not be back for the entire night.
It was simply creating an opportunity for Lin Bai to experiment with the tablet.
This couldn’t even be described as being extremely lucky. Lin Bai even felt as if there was a pair of invisible hands controlling everything in the dark.
Otherwise, why would his idea immediately change?
