Fortune telling

Recently Yoshi has been playing his stack of cups again. He taught himself to put together those cups, and even shaked them apart at the end. Doesn't he look like those people who shake the cylindrical bamboo cup in Wong Tai Sin Temple in Hong Kong? (簽筒) Maybe he was trying to foresee his future, wonder what's for dinner?!

The prediction begins with the cup storing a number of the sticks. The querent thinks silently or whispers it to the deity about their question. The shaking of the cylinder results in at least one stick leaving the cylinder and being dropped onto the floor. Once a single stick jumps out, that stick will have a number on it that will correspond to a number on an answer paper. The writing on the piece of paper will provide an answer to the question.
