I won't be a loser.

“186.......551”

He held his breath in his chest, his mind went blank for a moment, and the hand holding the lottery ticket couldn't help but tremble. He widened his eyes, looking at the lottery ticket in his hand, and then at the line of numbers in front of him.

After a long silence, he refreshed the website and confirmed that it was indeed the date he saw: December 2014, 12.

"......"

领奖日期，2015年1月7日，至2016年12月31日。

Nearly two years.

Looking at the numbers above and the lottery ticket in his hand again, his mind was still blank. He took a hard breath, silently opened the drawer, pressed the lottery ticket at the bottom of the drawer, closed it silently, left the website, cleared all browsing data, clicked on the age-restricted website, played the video, and sat at the table lost in thought.

There is still some time between January 1st and January 1th.

Although it is only a week, it seems so long to the wise man at this moment, with a bonus of 10 billion, and tax-free.

Slumped at the desk, he felt his hands and feet going numb.

When the Summer Cicadas Chirp: 296. Desire and Possession

In front of the huge number, the wise man who had never considered that he might win was shocked in his heart. He sat silently in his room, and couldn't help but open the drawer, picked up the lottery ticket again, looked at the lottery ticket, and thought for a long time.

First of all, he must not tell anyone else about this before the time when he can redeem and receive it.

It's not just a matter of trust. When faced with such a huge amount of money, once the news leaks, it is likely to affect the safety of all those who know about it.

This is not a matter of hundreds of thousands or millions of yen, but an amount that is already in the billions.

He aimed at the lottery ticket in front of him, stretched out his hand, picked up the ticket, then used the selfie mode, pointed the camera at himself, took a photo of himself and the lottery ticket, put the lottery ticket back into the drawer, and sat quietly in the house looking at the photos in his phone.

"It was supposed to be a very happy thing, but I didn't expect it to cause such inner uneasiness. It's really..."

He felt completely insecure, as if someone he didn't know would appear in front of him at any moment and snatch the lottery ticket from his hand. He couldn't help but rub his brows.

I couldn't help but stand up, walked to the window, lifted a corner of the curtain, and looked at the darkness outside the house.

In the vast darkness, there is naturally no one in sight.

After confirming the lock on his window, he put down the curtain in his hand, went back into the room, and sat down on the edge of his bed. He wanted to lie down on his bed and fall asleep early, but the turmoil in his heart made him take a deep breath to calm himself down.

"It's nothing, just a piece of paper... I..."

The wise man, who was having a headache, began to comfort himself in his heart, wanting to relax, but the more he tried not to care about this matter, the more he cared about it.

Ding-dong-

The sudden ring of the bell at the door made Xianren's heart skip a beat. His tongue pressed tightly against his upper palate and his breathing became tense. He walked slowly to the door, not daring to look through the peephole. He fastened the security chain and slowly opened the door in front of him.

"Good evening?"

Looking at the open door in front of her, and then looking at the sage who slowly poked his head out from behind the door with a frown, Ogiwara Sayu's expression seemed a little subtle.

"A wise man?"

When he saw that the person outside his door was Ogiwara Sayu, Xianren felt a little relieved. He casually untied the security chain and let the girl into his house. The moment the girl passed by him, he quickly closed the door.

He invited the girl into his house, poured her a cup of tea, and sat opposite her. He glanced at the girl seemingly 'casually', then suppressed his inner concern and looked down at the teacup in front of him, staring at his own reflection in the cup.

"What's the matter with you coming here so late?"

"Nothing special, I just saw you were at home, so I came to see you. You weren't at home yesterday?"

"Huh? No, I'm home, but I just got home very late."

He picked up the teacup, blew on it gently, took a sip of tea, and looked at Sayu Ogiwara who was sitting opposite him.

"Were you with Xige yesterday?"

"You were with her during the day today. Are you with that...girlfriend?"

"Ah."

While chatting with Ogiwara Sayu, he calmly answered her questions, trying to make sure that he was no different from usual, but his mind couldn't help but wander, thinking about how Ogiwara Sayu would react if she knew about his "lottery" incident.

There was a storm in my heart, and my eyes couldn't help but droop. I couldn't trust my heart, but I was also very distressed by my own thoughts.

"Have you contacted your family during the New Year?"

"I sent a text message to my brother."

"there is none left?"

"Nothing."

Ogiwara Sayu gave a brief answer, as if she didn't want to talk about or answer this question too much.

Everything that happened in Hokkaido was not a happy memory for her. Or rather, she had happy memories in the past, but now they were all dark. The bullies had not suffered any punishment, but her friends had already...

Seeing the changes in the girl's expression, Xianren's mood gradually calmed down, and he was no longer as nervous and concerned as before.

"Have you thought about what to do tomorrow?"

"I was originally planning to resume work, but when I think about what happened last time, I still feel a bit upset and don't want to go back to work."

Sayu Ogiwara didn't actually need income from a part-time job to support her life. After her brother paid her rent for a year, she still had 150,000 yen in living expenses every month, which was more than enough for her to live on her own.

"Have you told Xige?"

"not yet."

Ogiwara Sayu's face looked slightly bitter. She had not yet told Mito Yuka about this matter.

She didn't know how the other party would react after she told Mito Yuge. Thinking that the other party might be disappointed in her, she couldn't help but become nervous.

"She won't care about these things. Even if you tell her, she won't care."

Noticing Ogiwara Sayu's expression, he immediately guessed what she was thinking. She might be worried about Mito Yuka's thoughts. It was rare for them to make friends again, and Ogiwara Sayu also attached great importance to Mito Yuka, so it was normal for her to feel uneasy.

"Really, it's okay?"

She is still a little insecure.

Looking at her expression, Xianren closed his eyes, slowly stood up, and came to the girl's side. He put his hands on the girl's shoulders. Looking at Xianren in front of her, Ogiwara Sayu automatically leaned back and lay down on the soft and warm carpet.

"Believe me."

"Um......."

Accompanied by Ogiwara Sayu, Kento galloped until the early morning. At around three o'clock, he couldn't help but close his eyes, hugged the girl beside him, and fell into a deep sleep.

The moment he lay down, he no longer worried about anything related to the lottery, and he rested in a drowsy state until noon the next day.

The doorbell rang continuously, and Xianren opened his eyes, but when he was about to get up, there was no movement at the door. He sat up slowly and looked at Sayu Ogiwara who was still sleeping beside him. He reached out and rubbed his forehead.

Five days to go.

Looking at the date 2015/1/2 shown on the calendar, one day has passed and there are still five days left before the reward can be collected, but now the wise man's heart is filled with deep waves.

Sitting quietly in his room, he thought about how to spend this time, especially whether he should go to collect his bonus directly on the 7th, or wait for a while before collecting the bonus.

Picking up the tea beside him and taking a sip, the wise man sat silently in the room. His mind was a little confused, and he felt uneasy in everything he did.

So, I simply did nothing and sat in front of the computer, watching videos on video websites. I sat in the room, absent-mindedly thinking about various problems, including how to deal with the funds.

His original goal was just to buy a house in Bunkyo Ward. Once he received the 10 billion yen, this goal naturally became no longer a problem and could be achieved easily.

His initial goal was 30 million yen, but now his net worth has far exceeded 30 million yen, so he can definitely consider a better house.

After casually clicking an 'x' and closing the video in front of him, he clicked on another website and typed in the word 'buying a house'. A series of intermediary websites appeared. After looking for a while, he clicked on an intermediary website called 'suumo'.

When you click on the website, the first option that appears is the Kanto region or the Kansai region.

"Kanto."

New Apartment - New Single-family Building - Used Apartment - Used Single-family Building

After looking at the newly built and second-hand single-family buildings for a while and thinking for a while, I clicked on the newly built single-family building, which displayed two options: area and along the line.

The area refers to the chosen living area, and the line naturally refers to the area near the transportation line.

Gunma-Tochigi-Saitama-Ibaraki-Tokyo-Chiba-Kanagawa

In the Kanto region, there are a total of seven prefectures and cities to choose from. Xianren naturally chose Tokyo, but he didn't have any special requirements for the route. The transportation within the entire city was relatively convenient, and he himself could also...

Recalling the experience four months ago, he pursed his lips, looked silently at the area in front of him and along the line, and clicked on the area.

Tokyo-City Center

What emerges are Chiyoda Ward, where the Imperial Palace is located, Chuo Ward, the political center, Minato Ward, the commercial center, Shinjuku Ward and Shibuya Ward, which are fashionable and prosperous, and Bunkyo Ward, the educational and civilized area.

Things like the other 23 districts of Tokyo are basically not considered by Xianren.

Eastern 23 wards: Taito-Koto-Sumida-Arakawa-Adachi-Katsushika-Edogawa

Southern 23: Shinagawa - Ota Ward - Meguro Ward - Setagaya Ward

Western 23 Districts: Nakano District, Suginaminami District, and Nerima District

Northern 23 Wards: Toshima Ward, Kita Ward, Itabashi Ward

These places are not in the city center, which is not necessarily bad, but they all have different problems. Xianren, who has lived in Bunkyo Ward for a long time, would not want to live in those unfamiliar areas.

Other places outside these 23 districts include Hachioji City, Musashino City, Tachikawa City, etc.

It is completely in the suburbs. With the coverage of Tokyo's subway and tram, it only takes about half an hour to go to the city center. However, it is too cumbersome and would not be considered by the wise man unless he is crazy.

However, when I clicked on the "Build a New House" button and entered the page, I found that most of them were just simple drawings and construction had not yet begun.

"...Does that mean even if I buy it, I won't be able to move in anytime soon?"

After a period of silence, Xianren quietly withdrew from the new single-family house and started looking at other houses. The price of a single-family house itself is not very high, but the quality is basically uneven, so there is no need to consider those newly built single-family houses.

I then looked at the newly built apartments and found a total of 18 apartments in Bunkyo Ward. I clicked on them.

They were all concept sketches or simple models. He was silent for a moment and then started looking at the second-hand apartment.

Compared with the previously built drawings, when clicking on the second-hand apartments, the page displayed is more specific and the pictures are more detailed. They are all real photos taken on the spot. Among them, the number displayed in Bunkyo District is 890, which is more options than the newly built ones.

When you click on it, the first thing that catches your eye is an apartment called "Gakuendai Heights", which covers an area of 11.44 tsubo, or 37.82 square meters, and costs 2480 million yen.

After looking at some photos of the apartment, I found it to be a decent single apartment, but it is just a single apartment.

Compared to the apartment where Xianren lives now, it is about one-third larger. It is no problem for one person to live in it, but if two people live in it, it will seem crowded and is not a suitable choice.

pass

After returning to the original page and seeing the sorting method, he directly clicked on descending order by area and clicked OK. In an instant, an apartment with a price of 1.78 million yen appeared.

Originally, he had not dared to think about the apartment, but now the wise man had the courage to click in.

The 3LDK apartment has a total area of 179.37㎡, and does not include the so-called special common area. In addition to this 179.37㎡ area, there is also a 14.08㎡ balcony and a 129㎡ private garden with no usage fee?

Looking at the apartment in front of him, he leaned back in his chair in silence and closed his eyes.

"Huh—is this the environment rich people live in? Ha."

The single-family house I had originally thought of for 30 million yen, compared to this apartment costing nearly 200 million yen, is simply...

I couldn't help but laugh, and the smile was a little bitter.

He opened his eyes again and looked at the apartment in front of him. He then looked at other apartments...

From the afternoon to the night, Xianren looked at many apartments. Some of them were the stuff of his dreams, while others were so exquisite and elegant that he could hardly even imagine.

He stood up silently, a little absent-mindedly, and casually prepared his dinner. The wise man suddenly felt that the food was a little tasteless.

Most of the apartments were built in the 80s and 90s. Apartments built after 00 account for a relatively low proportion, about one-fifth.

After collecting all the apartments that he liked, Xianren closed the webpage, slowly walked to the edge of his bed, leaned back slightly, lay down on the bed, and sighed deeply.

Two hundred million yen is about ten million yuan, or even less than
