They will sell lottery tickets on the market and on the last day of school they will draw the winners.

When the last day is has come, the Emil and his friends has gathered a lot of nice prizes for the winners. Among other things, one can win the world’s largest chocolate bar. But something weird is going on. After the draw, it turns out that Rudolf has almost all the winning tickets. Emil lacks evidence but is sure there is a case to be solved. It is time to gather the detective agency.
