As I paid all my attention to opening the door, my phone was ringing, which almost scared me into screaming. It was Xiao Li, the security guard who had called me. I took a deep breath to calm down.

It turned out that the property manager had come over to the security room and I was being informed to go there. The door would still not open, and I told Xiao Li to tell the property manager to come here.

I exhaled a breath and felt so nervous. I continued to comfort myself that it was just a fox and I should not be timid like Xiao Teng.

At this time, I adjusted my emotions and warily opened the door and looked around, but there was still no fox in my sight. Owing to the phone ringing, I did not hear mysterious the sound anymore. But I was sure that the little fox was in this bedroom!

Since I had not discovered the target, I did not go in there. After all, the room was not very large and there was no other furniture except for the bed and the cabinet. Again I calmed down and took a light breath to wait for the strange sound.

I could only tell that the fox was inside earlier, but now, standing at the door of the room, I could tell the exact location of the fox according to the sound.

Unfortunately, the sound did not occur again after ten more minutes. I even questioned whether really did mishear the sound just now and that maybe there was no chewing sound at all. Maybe it was all of an illusion, thanks to being so nervous.

Thinking of this, I felt helpless, and then heard some footsteps outside! I came back to my senses at once, guessing that the property manager had come over. Thanks to finding it out in advance, or I would definitely be scared again.

The property manager was a man in his forties, slightly fat and wearing gla.s.ses. But he had a friendly smile, which made others feel comfortable. He directly asked me why I was here and if I had found new clues.

I shook my head at his words and said, "Not yet. I want to know something about the electrician in the community, who was Da Lichun."

He was taken aback at my words and shock flashed in his eyes. After he recovered from the abrupt surprise, he asked, "What is wrong with him?"

"About two years ago, some neighbors complained about his frightening appearance. Do you know anything about it?" I looked at the door of the bedroom from time to time to see that the door was still closed, and therefore, the fox could not get out of there.

The property manager kept silent for several seconds and it seemed like he was carefully thinking about it. Then he slowly said, "It was a middle-aged woman who had complained against him, but she already moved out of this community. She had a provocative personality because Dai Lichun had scared her kid and she was angry about it, so she complained about him. Since then, Dai Lichun began to wear masks and did not let others see his appearance and nothing happened since that."

I frowned and asked, "Nothing else?"

The property manager nodded at my words and said, "Yes! Nothing like this ever happened. No one has ever seen his appearance since then. To tell you the truth, I feel pity for him, and he was devoted to work, so I let him stay."

I originally thought I could find some new clues from him, but his answer made no progress to any theory. Then we gave contact numbers to each other and I told him to contact me if he thought of some suspicious points and I would contact him if needed.

I let him go, and then there was only me again, and I waited for Xiao Teng on the couch. Not long after, the chewing sound was heard again and I paid attention to it at once. It still came from that bedroom, and I became angry after initially being scared.

When I was about to stand up, Xiao Teng suddenly called. Fortunately, I had settled my mind; otherwise, I would be startled again if the phone rang in the silence. He asked me how was it going, and said he would come over here soon.

After I put down my phone, I slowly walked towards the door and hesitantly wondered at the door, wondering if I should walk in there or wait for Xiao Teng and the expert to go in. In addition to not knowing the fox, I was also afraid that some accident would happen.

After about five minutes, Xiao Teng arrived with the cage and an animal expert. "How is it going, Zhuxuan?"

I pointed to the bedroom and said in a deep voice, "I heard the chewing sound twice after you left! But I didn't find the fox the first time I came in, so I was waiting for you guys this time."

The animal expert was nearly forty years old, and Xiao Teng called her Sister Han. After she listened to us, she approached the bedroom door and said, "Xiao Teng said that it is a white fox, which is only true about Arctic foxes. But it is not supposed to be around here, so it should not be an Arctic fox."

I didn't know anything about the subject. At this moment, Xiao Teng and I saw a white thing quickly pa.s.s by, and then I didn't see it again. "Let's find it and see. It's supposed to be in this bedroom."

Sister Han nodded at my words. "You guys shouldn't get too close to it after finding it, because the foxes usually take the initiative to attack and bite."

Thanks to not being alone anymore, I was already calm enough, and I slowly pushed open the door. The room was still empty.

Sister Han looked around and finally stared at the s.p.a.ce under the bed. "Generally speaking, foxes like to hide in out of sight places, which comes from their nature. There is less furniture in this room, the cabinets are closed, and the curtains are not let down, so it is likely to be under the bed. Close the door when you come in."

I nodded, and Xiao Teng kept on staring at me, closing the door with hesitation. "Zhuxuan, aren't you scared?"

Looking at him, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "What are you scared for? Killed by the fox fairy? Then how can you still see me after you come back? You would have already died. I really wonder what is in your mind. Maybe paste?"

Xiao Teng felt a little awkward, and said, "Fine! I think too much."

"When the case is over, I will find you a fox to enshrine and wors.h.i.+p. After you get along with it for a long time, you won't be scared anymore. What do you think?" I looked at him with no good intentions.

Xiao Teng quickly waved his hand at my words, but as he was just about to speak, there was a sound from the spot under the bed! At this time, Sister Han had been kneeling on the floor to check the spot under the bed, but the sound was definitely not made by her.

"Sure, there it is. It looks like a panda fox." Sister Han chuckled, and she seemed to be less stressed now.

"Panda fox? What is that?" Xiao Teng frowned. Apparently, he did not know.

Somehow, Sister Han groped for a while and finally took out a roasted chicken from under the bed. She immediately put the roasted chicken on the open s.p.a.ce beside the bed and stood up. "This little fox is so timid that it is afraid of people. The chewing sound you heard before is it eating the roasted chicken."

I suddenly realized what happened before. It had terribly scared me, but it was actually eating chicken. Sure enough, I was scared by myself. How shameful!

After two seconds of silence, Sister Han remembered the problem that Xiao Teng had just put forward. "Panda fox is a kind of Arctic fox. Many people like to raise foxes, so they are just ordinary pet foxes. But normal panda foxes are not just white, but black and white."
