The Casino School

Episode 19's

The expected day has arrived. Carrying 3 lottery cards in hand, Yuuji and Kuro walked firmly towards the notice board. With their hearts pounding, their steps stopped right behind the crowd of disciples lining up. They're just like our two big boys, checking out the weekly dips in the lottery.

"Sana, sana. You go first," Kuro's orders seem unprepared to see the fate of the lottery.

Yuuji gulped, then slipped among the disciples who were reluctant to leave even though he already knew his card had lost. After getting a good position, Yuuji checked one by one his cards. Match the numbers on the board and the first card.

"It doesn't match," Yuuji muttered and then threw away his first card. Continuing on the second card that again nothing is right. Here he began to despair, but a little glimmer of hope in the heart even though it might be in vain.

His two eyes looked seriously at the numbers on the board, moving on the cards. Repeated to the last digit. Yuuji was stunned, then went back to repeating it. And when he was sure, Yuuji rushed out of the horde and met Kuro.

"Come on!" Yuuji's hand pulls Kuro fast, running towards the bingo hall to meet the counter handyman selling his lottery tickets.

"There's ap—"

"I WON THE LOTTERY!" Yuuji's cry attracted the attention of the other disciples. The eyesight looked at the direction Yuuji was running. No, this is a mistake. Yuuji can't shout like that if he wins the lottery.

The basic rules of winning the lottery, do not show your winnings to others. Because they will take advantage of the situation to seize what you can!

"Oh! Lookie! Kuga Yuuji won the lottery!"

"Come quickly approach! Who knows if you got the part!"

"Remove the card!"

"He's just himself! Come fast!"

At once only Kuro followed, now the horde of students did not know themselves to pursue. Yuuji who was previously filled with euphoria had to run around the field to keep away from those greedy humans.

The hand grips on Kuro were removed because the young man chose to quit the game of chases. "Goodbye, Yuuji. May you be lucky this time," Kuro murmured as he walked to one of the sidelines.

There he observes Yuuji who is starting to get overwhelmed. But the youngster was still puffing to keep the lottery in his hands. No doubt Yuuji finally chose another way to survive, which is to fight. Is correct. Adu jotos and baku hantam. Yuuji, who was known as a barbarian on the first day of school, finally shows up. How strong and reliable he was when SMP finally looked again after a long time struggling with gambling on the table.

"Diagot! Hiss! It's wacaau!"

As if they were performing art together, martial arts variants were shown in the middle of the field. Yuuji faced off one by one with those greedy thugs.

Kuro who was originally silent on the sidelines finally contacted his friends. But having not had time to send to the group chat, Kenji and Hiro had already run to the middle of the field to help Yuuji. From behind Kuro, there was Tama and Fuji with their hands carrying baseball bats.

"Gosh-you guys wanna fight?!" kuro asked answered a steady nod by Fuji. Tama gave her wand to Kuro. "Now, go forward," he commanded.

"WHAT THE HELL?! DON'T WANT TO, AH!" push Kuro to pull the stick.

"Eh, you don't know what kind of gift Yuuji has?" fuji asked as he rolled his shirt arm up to the elbow. Kuro shook his head slowly while staring in astonishment. Behind the school suit and shirt, it turns out Fuji's hands are pretty decent too.

"Berap—"

"That's a lot! The rest of them are chasing Yuuji. The feeling used to be only 200 dollars," Kuro replied as he rolled up his shirt arm as well. It seems that Kuro already intends to help Yuuji.

"It was said that Mrs Huberime made a donation on the last day of the lottery ticket sale" Fuji said, running into the field and approaching the crowd. Kuro just silently looked at her, then got up from the chair.

Quickly, Kuro follows Fuji and begins to play a punch to get rid of the croco-crocoes. Tama herself chose to sit in her chair. Watching the match between his friend versus the school thug. From the body alone has experienced a gap, but for the strength may be pitted, lah.

Paying attention to her cool friends, Tama did not even pay attention to the figure sitting next to her. The youth with the stocky body and long hair was disheveled, and there was a former thug-style codet on the face. Although Tama knew the young man was nearby, but Tama did not invite him to speak at all.

If necessary, Tama chose to be quiet rather than respond to each of the young man's remarks. The King. Right, Jaken is now sitting next to him. On Jaken's side was a Suzuki carrying an umbrella to cover Jaken's head from the sunlight. Really king.

Jaken looked towards Yuuji and his flock who were fighting for a lottery card. Amusingly. But seeing the nominal won, he felt it was quite balanced with the injuries they got.

"Not winning the lottery?" Jaken's pleasantries were only briefly responded to. Tama is sure Jaken will not willingly heat up or even approach a dusty area like this if there is nothing important to talk about. Moreover, Jaken chose to come alone, that means this should not be known by other officials.

Something as secret as the old days of Tama and Jaken together. Tama again catapulted his memory during Junior High. Where he was so close to Jaken. But Jaken's ambitious nature drives him away. Jaken had once met him in secret like this to expel Tama from his affairs. With that, Tama has a grudge against Jaken because the young man forgot the good times of school and chose to pursue the momentary pleasures.

Jaken knew her former best friend would not go over formalities as a 'familiar friend', so Jaken immediately gave Tama a thin envelope. He immediately left after Tama received it without saying a word.

In silence, Tama looked at the envelope. Then fold it and put it in your pocket. His attention returned to Yuuji's fight ahead. Not over. Even now the thugs send reinforcements to get Yuuji's lottery cards. People really do not know themselves.

Although both eyes looked towards the commotion, but Tama's mind floated unsettled. His heart was guessing the contents of the envelope. Curious. But Tama is reluctant to open it now because she is not ready to be shaken. He believes there is a letter inside. The letter Jaken gave was not a trivial letter. It would definitely have something to do with him and most likely it made him shock.

On the other hand, Yuuji and the others were already exhausted. In the end they took off the lottery. If only help had not come, Yuuji would have already trampled on the thug's head.

"Sweet boy, thank you for the card" said the thug and walked away leaving the five young men limp in the middle of the field.

After the departure of the thugs, Tama came in and brought a few bottles of drinks for them. Tama's smile could not be separated even though her friends were already on the verge of life. Their breathing is irregular, the wounds all over the body can not be hidden, why do they even like attending school in Suzuran?

The scorching increasingly haughty standing in space. Tama must immediately take them to the edge of the field and shelter under a large tree. With gontai steps and pain everywhere, they poured themselves around the old tree. The lush foliage protects their bodies from the heat of the sun.

"Dam. My thousand dollars..," complained Yuuji. They had resigned even though their hearts were turbulent to retaliate. If only there had been no second wave, they would have eaten by now.

Tama who has been silent since then shows his phone. Shows a video of the thugs ransacking the lottery counter. They protested because the money earned was only 200 dollars. Angry and threatened the lottery to give a thousand dollars.

"𝘔-𝘮𝘢𝘢𝘧𝘬𝘢𝘯 𝘢𝘬𝘶.. 𝘵𝘢-𝘵𝘢𝘱𝘪 𝘕𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘺𝘢 𝘏𝘦𝘣𝘪𝘩𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘬𝘢𝘯 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘶 𝘥𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘺𝘢 𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘶𝘬 𝘭𝘰𝘵𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘫𝘶𝘵𝘯𝘺𝘢, 𝘣𝘶𝘬𝘢𝘯 𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘶𝘬 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘨𝘶 𝘪𝘯𝘪."

Hearing the ticket seller's explanation, the five children who were beaten by the thug heaved a sigh of relief. They were satisfied because the men did not get a thousand dollars. This made them happy because indirectly, Madam Hewahime had already taken her revenge.

"Hehe! Come on, come on in the lottery next week!" take Yuuji back to sumringah.
