The speaker, Hikaru, shares his experience at a Summer festival where he encountered two shops selling lottery tickets. He expresses his dissatisfaction with the lack of transparency and the apparent scam that the lottery system appears to be. He questions the sellers about the possibility of winning, only to be told that it's a matter of probability and that he would need to spend a significant amount of money to increase his chances.
Hikaru becomes frustrated and confronts the sellers, who admit that they don't have the actual prizes and that the entire operation is designed not to win. He threatens to report the lottery to the police, which prompts the sellers to express their frustration and fear of being caught.
Despite the confrontation, the sellers continue to operate the lottery, and Hikaru vows to return next year to expose the scam. He advises others to be cautious when dealing with such lotteries, emphasizing the importance of understanding the rules and potential risks before participating.
