Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Because of the clues provided by Li Hao, Li Hao received a 200,000 yuan reward.
Li Hao instantly felt like he had struck gold. He immediately added the pretty policewoman Xiao Yaoyao’s WeChat account, returned the two hundred dollars he borrowed, and even generously treated everyone in the police station to a cup of… milk tea.

With this 200,000 yuan, he would not have to worry about not having enough money to open any hints if he encountered them.
Previously, when he was passing by the river, he happened to run into a child who had fallen into the water. Li Hao bravely saved the child, but he drowned instead, which led to the subsequent scene.
Even now, Li Hao’s clothes were still a little wet, and he felt uncomfortable wearing them.
Therefore, Li Hao went to a men’s clothing store on the side of the road and spent more than a thousand yuan to change his clothes.

Then, Li Hao decided to take a taxi home. With the 200,000 yuan, he could skip the bus ride.
However, when Li Hao walked out of the store, his eyes widened.
An old man in his 50s or 60s had a huge red exclamation mark floating in front of Li Hao.

Damn, the notification came again.
Li Hao excitedly opened the exclamation mark on the man’s head.
[Follow this master, there will be a surprise]
The system’s prompt sounded again. Then, the exclamation mark on the man’s head disappeared.
Li Hao was a little puzzled, but since the System had said so, Li Hao still followed behind the old man.
Soon, the old man arrived at a welfare station at the entrance of a small alley.
In the next moment, Li Hao looked inside the lottery station.
Hiss!
A huge exclamation mark appeared in front of Li Hao, and the dazzling red light almost blinded Li Hao.
The red exclamation mark was on a card.
More accurately, it was a scratchcard.
Li Hao opened the exclamation mark without hesitation.
A QR code popped up.
Scan the QR code for payment.
Li Hao was speechless. He was going to give him money just like that? The system was too cunning.
However, Li Hao did not care. He paid 200 yuan and received the notification.
[Ding-Dong. If you scrape open this card, you will receive a big prize. Don’t miss it~]
Seeing this notification, Li Hao’s eyes widened, and he could not suppress the excitement in his heart.
The lottery station was not big, but there were quite a number of people. Many were still studying the trend map, and there was a man playing the scratchcard on the counter.
“Haha, another 50 yuan. Sister, let me scrape another one!”
The man was about to grab the scratchcard.
Li Hao charged forward.
Finally, before the man, he caught this scratchcard.
“Big sister, give me one, too! This is it!”

Li Hao said to the lady boss who was standing in front of the counter. He took out his phone and paid 50 yuan.
This was a ‘super awesome’ lottery scratchcard. As long as the number was the same as the winning number, one could receive the corresponding bonus below the number, up to one million.
“Little brother, don’t rush. The lottery scratchcards won’t be able to run away from you, and you won’t be able to snatch away those that you don’t deserve.”
The man next to him had a displeased look on his face as he said to Li Hao in a low voice. He could only casually take another card and scratch it.
“Damn it, no numbers!”
The man could not help but curse.
Li Hao wanted to laugh.
“Big brother, don’t be discouraged. If you are destined to win, the scratchcard won’t run away from you, and you won’t be able to win if you don’t deserve them.”
“Look at my scratchcard, it might give me a million! I stepped on dog shit this morning!”
Li Hao returned the man’s words and then looked at the lottery scratchcards in his hands. His heart was already surging, but on the surface, Li Hao still acted calm.
Li Hao took the coin and opened the winning number at the top.
56.
After that, Li Hao began to scratch the bottom area.
18, 26, 25, 19, 05…
The first row missed.
When Li Hao opened the second and third row of numbers, they were still misses.
However, when Li Hao reached the fifth number on the fourth row, a number 56 slowly appeared.
“Yay! It really hit the jackpot! Let’s see how much the bonus is!” The man beside him saw this and said immediately.
Li Hao continued to scratch.
After the symbol ‘¥’, it was 1, followed by 0…
“One, two zeroes, six zeroes, six zeroes! One million! Brother, this is one million! You really won one million!”
When Li Hao finished scraping the prize money, the man beside him jumped up as if he had seen a ghost.
“What? One million! Let me see!”
The lady boss was shocked.
“Damn, he won a million from scratchcards?”
“Seriously?”
All of a sudden, those old men who were looking at the trend started to surround him. They were shocked and their voices were filled with envy and jealousy. Especially that man from before, he even felt like crying.
A moment later, Li Hao took the lottery scratchcards and went straight to the center. This was a one million yuan prize. The lady boss could not give Li Hao the money now.
“F*ck, why didn’t I buy some scratchcards today?”
“Sigh… A million. Why don’t I have such luck?”
When Li Hao left, he could still hear some sighs.
“D*mn, this guy is really lucky!”
“This guy said he stepped on dog shit this morning?”
“Seems like it. Could it really be useful?”

“…”
In an instant, the news that the lottery station had won a million dollars spread and shocked many people. For a long time, there were some old men looking for something in the green belt outside the neighborhood.
After coming out of the welfare center, Li Hao’s bank account had an additional 800,000 yuan because he had paid 200,000 yuan in income tax.

He was rich.
He really got rich instantly.
The current Li Hao, in addition to the two hundred thousand from before, was truly a millionaire.
How attractive!
This notification system was really attractive.
After that, Li Hao wandered around the streets a few more times, but he did not find any exclamation marks. Just as Li Hao was about to return to school, a dazzling yellow light suddenly appeared in a pharmacy.
Li Hao took a closer look. The yellow light was actually a big question mark.
“D*mn, what’s with this question mark?”

Li Hao was stunned. Was this also a system notification?
