Chapter 173: Gudako, the Child of Fortune.
"Where did you get the free coupon, Jerry?" Bai Song squatted down and asked Jerry, who was still nervously fidgeting with the coupon.
Jerry, feeling caught red-handed, shivered and looked up at Bai Song with fear. It was like a child who had been caught doing something wrong by their parents, trembling with fear. Jerry had found the free coupon in one of Bai Song's collection items, a black mini skirt. Along with the coupon, there were also several octagonal, colorful crystals.
However, Jerry only took the free coupon, which technically made it stealing from Bai Song. And it knew that once Bai Song found out, it would be punished with hunger for at least three days.
Quickly, Jerry hid the coupon behind its back, trying to use its small body to shield it from Bai Song's view. But the coupon was larger than Jerry, and the attempt was futile.
"Give it to me," Bai Song demanded, extending his hand and hoping Jerry would cooperate.
Jerry's forehead was drenched in sweat, but it pretended as if nothing had happened. It turned its head away but kept glancing back at Bai Song to check his actions.
While doing this, Jerry also pretended to whistle nonchalantly, but due to its extreme nervousness, only a soft puffing sound came out, and there was no actual whistle.
Seeing that Jerry was still acting innocent and not handing over the coupon, Bai Song chuckled.
"Hand it over!"
With that, Bai Song swiftly reached out and grabbed the massive free coupon, which was taller than Jerry itself, from behind its back.
With Bai Song's lightning-fast movement, he grabbed the free coupon from behind Jerry in a fraction of a second. In the blink of an eye, Jerry found itself suspended in the air, with Bai Song holding the coupon and the little mouse firmly.
"huang~huang~." Bai Song casually shook the coupon, causing Jerry, still holding onto it, to swing back and forth. Then, with a swift motion, Bai Song released his grip, and Jerry went flying through the air, landing with a comical crash on the ground. The impact caused Jerry's upper half to sink into the ground, giving it a funny appearance.
Amused by Jerry's acrobatics, Tom couldn't help but burst into laughter. Bai Song inspected the coupon in his hand and realized that Jerry had used it to sign up for the race event. That explained why the coupon Bai Song had claimed earlier was invalidated.
According to the interface, registering for any event bound the coupon to the user's identity, making other free coupons useless. Bai Song speculated that this measure was to prevent malicious acquisition of other people's coupons.
When Bai Song noticed that the coupon had 900 points written on it, he was pleasantly surprised. It meant he had earned 800 points from this particular coupon!
Feeling both surprised and puzzled, Bai Song asked Jerry where it had found the coupon. Jerry, no longer frightened, explained how it had discovered the coupon in Bai Song's collection, hidden among other items, particularly the black mini skirt.
Bai Song nodded, relieved that Jerry hadn't gone to any extreme lengths to acquire the coupon. He then decided to put away the coupon and focus on the upcoming race event.
"Alright, Jerry, since you've already signed up for the race, we should prepare ourselves for it. Let's see what this special racing event is all about!" Bai Song said with a hint of excitement.
With their next adventure set in motion, Bai Song and his quirky companions geared up for the unique race, ready to face whatever challenges awaited them on the track.
Wiping his forehead, Jerry's sweaty appearance quickly turned dry after a single swipe. Bai Song couldn't help but be amazed at the sudden transformation. Then, Jerry ran towards a bag containing Bai Song's collection of items. Bai Song couldn't shake off the feeling that the bag wasn't there just a moment ago, and its appearance seemed somewhat mysterious.
As Jerry opened the bag, Bai Song's curiosity grew. Jerry pointed at a black mini skirt inside the bag and then looked back at Bai Song, seemingly implying that the card was found there.
"You mean... you found this card inside the bag?" Bai Song raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised at the revelation.
"Ding~ Ding~" Jerry vigorously nodded, and inexplicably, some music seemed to accompany its nodding, adding an amusing touch to the scene.
Bai Song found the situation quite amusing. Who would have thought that chasing after a fake battery would lead to such unexpected gains? First, he obtained 24 counterfeit Noble Phantasms, two authentic ones, Gudako's hair, and a little black dress. And now, he discovered a white coupon with 900 points. Was Gudako coming to bless him with these bountiful gifts?
Amused by Jerry's actions and the situation as a whole, Bai Song couldn't help but think, "Isn't this like killing two birds with one stone?"
