49. The Chosen Son Mai

The two hungry people finally gave up thinking about this problem. The aroma of toasted butter filled the street. This intoxicating smell made Luther and Mai couldn't help but sniff their noses and walked towards the source of the aroma.

Next to the hotel owned by the alliance, in front of a cake shop, people wearing sportswear gathered for morning jogs, as well as people who had just woken up and looked for food.

The manager of the cake shop is waiting for customers at the door. He is an energetic middle-aged man wearing a baker's costume. He has a short cut and a fine beard, which makes him look like a gentleman.

While Luther was still feeling the sweet smell in the air, Mai tugged on Luther's sleeve.

Luther looked in the direction Mai pointed and saw something densely written on an exhibition board.

"For the opening event, all cakes before 17 o'clock today will be sold at the price of ten alliance coins."

"Note: The trainer who eats cartilage in today's cake will receive a mysterious gift."

"The guest who eats the little fish in today's cake will receive a small exquisite gift."

"Give me the money!" Mai's eyes were shining, and she reached out and asked Luther for money.

"Why me?" Luther took out his wallet and then remembered this.

"I've used it all!" Mai said so confidently that Luther had no strength to refute.

Luther took out a ten-dollar alliance coin and put it in Mai's hand, and decided to make a last-ditch effort: "I'm tired of eating cake so early in the morning. We can eat something else."

"The point is not the cake, but the lottery!" Mai held the money and said confidently, "You have to believe in my luck. My luck has always been very good."

"But you don't know what the prize is."

Luther had seen this lottery method many times before. Most of the big prizes were vouchers and worthless gadgets. However, considering the simple environment of this world, Luther was somewhat looking forward to it.

"Is this important? Anyway, if you draw it, you will earn it."

Luther saw that Mai already regarded the prize as something in her bag, and remembered that she and Mai had encountered strange elves twice in the forest. She herself had tamed one of them. Luther hesitated and put the other piece of money.

Gave it to Mai.

"Give me one too."

Mai, who squeezed into the party line with money, took a long time to come back with two large pieces of exquisite fruit cream cake.

Luther's cake was dotted with strawberries, oranges and unknown fruits, with a layer of snow-white cream underneath, and some black powder sprinkled on top of the cream.

Luther pinched the powder and tasted it, convinced that it was chocolate.

While Luther was still studying the ingredients of the cake, Mai had already cut a piece with a fork and ate it deliciously, but the more she ate, the more disappointed she became...

"Isn't it delicious?" Seeing Mai's expression, Luther asked cautiously, and the hand holding the fork stopped.

"Didn't win the prize!"

Luther breathed a sigh of relief and began to enjoy his breakfast.

It has to be said that butter is really a sinful food, and it is simply the natural enemy of those who want to lose weight. Fortunately, Luther did not have this worry. He scraped off a layer of butter with a fork and savored the cold, smooth taste, and then threw it away.

He picked up a fork and ate half of the cake with his mouth.

Seeing that Mai was still disappointed, Luther had to comfort her: "If you could get anything good, wouldn't you be the chosen one? Don't be disappointed if you don't win."

"How about you give me another chance? I think I will definitely win this time."

Coincidentally, Luther used to think the same way when he was playing card games. Whenever such an idea came to him and he put it into practice, Luther would only regret it afterwards.

"Don't even think about it..." Luther's chewing movements slowed down.

Mai looked curiously at Luther, who was speechless, and then looked at Luther with disgust as he put his hand into his mouth. Mai's eyes lit up when she thought of something, and her face was filled with anticipation.

Luther took out a small fish boy from his mouth with only a fish head left.

Luther wanted to complain about the store, but this was a good idea. If you accidentally eat a fish of this size with the cake, you would miss out on the prize.

If it hadn't been for the faint salty taste that suddenly hit his taste buds while chewing, Luther doesn't think he would have noticed it.

"Okay, I admit, you are indeed lucky. Although it is not a big prize, it is not bad." Luther lost his temper with Mai's good luck.

The cake shop was crowded, but there was no one in front of the special prize redemption window. Luther put the half fish head in the bag and took it to the window. The clerk in charge of prize redemption asked a lucky egg to take the gift from the gift shelf while congratulating him.

Luther put the small box that Geely Egg brought on the table and motioned for Luther to open it.

Luther gave Mai the opportunity to open the box. Mai opened the box three times, five times, five, and two times, and then there was another...box?

Luther watched as Mai opened the box of nesting dolls layer by layer. When a book-sized box was opened to the size of a palm, a black card appeared in front of Mai.

As expected, it was something nothing new like a score card. Luther sighed.

However, Mai looked excited and put the card under Luther's nose.

"I see, the score card is great." Luther felt the need to echo.

"Look carefully!"

Unable to resist Mai's enthusiasm, Luther took a closer look, and then as if he was struck by lightning, he only had one thought in his mind, is this okay?

The alliance gift card worth 1,000 yuan can be used at any alliance partner store. It is not the kind of useless discount card or limited-use points card!

Originally, Luther and Mai only had one day of room and board expenses left, and they were already thinking about how to find part-time jobs in the next few days to make ends meet. After all, the remaining money could only be spent sparingly.

It's better now, and there's room for everything.

"I take back what I just said. Either you are lucky or you are the chosen one." Luther was completely convinced.

"Now I'm more curious about what the grand prize is." Mai looked at the gifts on the shelf with burning eyes.

Delong Wangshu is talking about people like Mai, but who has this qualification?

"The grand prize is not on the shelf, but in the store." The cake shop manager who had appeared at the front entrance appeared in front of Mai, holding a bag of cakes in his hand, "Since you are the first customer to win the prize, this is a bonus.

of."

Mai looked around the cake shop and thought about what kind of gift this grand prize was.

"Are you a trainer?" the store manager asked.

Mai and Luther nodded and each took out their own illustrations.

The method for holders of the Pokedex to prove their identity as trainers is very simple.

The store manager saw the illustration, then looked at Mai and Luther carefully for a while, rubbed the fine stubble, and said thoughtfully: "Otherwise, if no one eats cartilage after the afternoon activity time,

, how about that gift being yours?"

Luther's mouth opened slightly in shock, and he had lost the ability to organize language.

Mai, on the other hand, applauded the store manager excitedly and said she would definitely come and take a look in the afternoon.

Taking the free cake and the voucher card from the lottery, Mai and Luther silently set out towards the Pathé Suburban Nature Park where they planned to go.

Although Mai didn't understand why Sirona appeared in that place, since it was Gosatsu's message to Luther, it shouldn't be wrong.

Luther was still immersed in Mai's unreasonable good luck. He felt that the chance of being struck by lightning was greatly increased when he stood with a very lucky person like Mai. After all, thunder probably wouldn't hit someone like Mai.

An unlucky kid like him is probably very popular with Tianlei...
