Mystery: Lucky

Amon, no, the smile of this or this group of time worms in front of her disappeared. After more than ten seconds, Alice saw this time worm looking at her with a complicated expression and said:

"The original body wants to see you.

"He plans to treat you to a full-worm banquet."

After staring at each other awkwardly for more than ten seconds, Alice asked the alternative ingredient in front of her seriously:

"Can I run in time now?"

"Good question," it clapped its hands twice in admiration, "Why don't you just run?"

Alice took a cautious step back and asked sincerely:

"Why are you so happy?

"You are not the original body... In other words, you may also be part of the full-worm banquet, right?"

After more than ten seconds of silence, the alternative ingredients disappeared, and Alice heard Amon's voice still with a smile:

"Alice, do you really not consider coming to the Forsaken Land of God?"

Alice blinked twice, pretending to be dead and ignoring Amon, making sure there were no more or less people in the room... Wait a minute.

Where is the diary she just copied?

After a moment of hesitation, Alice had to ask, "Why did you steal my diary? You can't read Chinese!"

Amon was not angry, but responded happily, "You are right. It just so happens that you can come to the Forsaken Land to take them back."

Alice closed her mouth, gritted her teeth, and had to re-copy five copies of "The Iron Knight tastes really good" to go talk to Ian later.

She firmly rejected Amon's invitation again and decided to go out for ice cream.

As lunch time approached, Alice licked a bite of ice cream and began to think about what to eat for lunch.

——Isn't it normal to start thinking about what to eat for lunch more than an hour in advance?

Making a decision was too difficult for Alice. Until she finished eating all the ice cream, Alice hadn't figured out what to eat.

After thinking carefully for a while, the ice cream returned to its original state, and Alice decided to eat the ice cream again.

But the second time was not as good as the first time. Alice frowned quickly. She realized that this ice cream had lost its sense of surprise for her - after all, she had just eaten the exact same one.

In line with the principle of not wasting food, Alice finally finished the ice cream in her hand and pondered.

Suddenly, she had an idea and wrote down the different options on slips of paper, rolled up the slips, and messed up their order.

In theory, a simple lottery was ready. She just had to grab one at random and she didn't need to make a decision... right?

In fact, it was not the case at all.

As long as she wanted, her hand reaching for the slip of paper with words written on it was also controlled by fate.

In other words, from the moment she took away the probability dice, the disguise of coincidence and accident was completely torn apart, and the tightly fitting gears were ruthlessly exposed in front of her.

Those seemingly random things were all arranged by fate.

As she holds a part of the power of fate, she has successfully gained the autonomy of certain things - at least on the surface, but these ordinary daily lives have completely lost their randomness in a sense.

In a daze, Alice remembered Song Shu's favorite card-drawing game.

In Alice's opinion, the nature of this game is undoubtedly similar to gambling, and it also captures the gambler mentality of the players.

But in Alice's impression, Song Shu is not one of the players who is caught by the gambler mentality. She likes card-drawing games, but never plays them herself.

She prefers to watch others play.

She is... what did she say?

In her mind, the scene of a certain afternoon gradually became clear. Alice remembered that she should be indoors, on the bed, holding a mobile phone in her hand.

She remembered that she only had one last chance to draw a card, but she still couldn't draw the character she wanted, so she put down her phone and looked at Song Shu who was watching the fun and asked:

"It's the last time anyway, you will definitely not be able to draw it... Xiaosong, why don't you try it?"

"Not necessarily," Song Shu blinked, "Try again Huanhuan, you will definitely succeed the last time, believe me!"

Alice shook her head, threw the phone aside and said to her:

"I don't want to try... Hey, Xiaosong, why do I feel like you like watching others draw cards, but never touch them yourself?

"It's like you have some psychological shadow..."

Song Shu smiled, picked up the phone and stuffed it back to Alice and said:

"The most interesting thing about drawing cards is the unexpected surprise that comes when you succeed after many failures.

"In fact, it's not just card drawing. All games with high randomness are like this. They use random endings to attract players. It's obviously the same process, but the results are very different. Card drawing is just more related to "gambling".

"But no matter what, the real core is that the ending is unknown and uncontrollable. If you lose this point, there will be nothing attractive.

"It's more interesting to watch others play... Huanhuan, try again. Anyway, it's the last time, and it won't take much effort to finish drawing."

Alice took the phone and reopened the interface while laughing:

"After all this time, you still didn't tell me the reason... You can't know the result before you draw, right?"

"Maybe," Song Shu looked at her and smiled, "Maybe I really know it?"

"Nonsense," Alice rolled her eyes, "If you are so good, why don't you buy lottery tickets?"

Song Shu watched her finger click the confirmation button and laughed, "Look, I knew you wouldn't believe it... Ha, look, I said you would win, right?"

In the golden light, the limited characters in the card pool appeared on the screen. Alice remembered that she had completely ignored what Song Shu had said just now, turned her head and said to her excitedly:

"Thank you very much, our kind Xiaosong, for lending me luck!"

"You have to pay it back." Song Shu also looked very happy, and her eyes were curved with laughter.

"Eh?" Alice widened her eyes and looked at her accusingly, "Okay, so this is what you are thinking! You want to trick me into drawing for you with just one sentence, you wish!"

The matter ended here, Song Shu blinked twice and quickly changed the subject.

This was just a common play between good friends-before thinking of Song Shu's last smile, it was indeed the case.

Alice unconsciously clenched her fists. She couldn't help but want to think in this direction, but her hands subconsciously fumbled around on the table and gathered the paper balls.

"I haven't decided what to eat for lunch yet... Let's talk about it after lunch?" Alice whispered to herself, as if she was advising someone. (End of this chapter)
