Chapter 314: The Fox Doesn

“Mm hmm?”

Wang Qiqi, en route to her duty post, suddenly received a call from the weapons room manager at the New Xing Nongke Academy; after hearing the man’s account of what had happened, she froze in place.

“He treated him like some cheating boyfriend—first ‘You smell so good,’ then ‘Your hands are cold, let’s compare hand sizes,’ then ‘I’m just holding you, won’t let go,’ and then he packed up twenty-four launchers.” The weapons room manager’s face was dark with irritation as he complained to Wang Qiqi.

“Tsk, this is troublesome. Never mind, I’ll go take care of it tomorrow. Just log the incident truthfully in the management log—it’s not a big issue. Fuli Lao Ye always plays things a bit flashy.”

Wang Qiqi told the manager that, then paid it no further mind and continued on to her duty.

An Sheng taking the electromagnetic launcher wasn’t really serious—the Longle City Spirit Beast Corps’ arms depot had shotguns, hand grenades, and RPGs; a few electromagnetic launchers were nothing remarkable.

But when Wang Qiqi said it was troublesome, she wasn’t referring to Fuli Lao Ye—she was referring to the electromagnetic launcher.

The electromagnetic launcher’s principle is simple: a magnetic coil accelerator that fires metal projectiles.

With a firing rate of over a thousand rounds per minute, the power requirement is enormous, so the launcher uses a self-developed isotope battery.

Also known as a “micro nuclear battery.”

The battery continuously undergoes reactions; improper storage can cause heat buildup and damage the battery.

Of course, that level of radiation won’t kill anyone, let alone take out Fuli Lao Ye.

But Wang Qiqi feared Fuli Lao Ye didn’t know—might toss the used launcher outdoors, or into a stream, contaminating nearby soil.

“Hahaha, I knew he’d cause trouble,” Jin Qianbao chuckled from the back seat. “Just let the principal lift the rules and give the fox an honorary senior title—then everything’s solved.”

An Sheng had asked Jin Qianbao how to arrange dormitory accommodation at the New Xing Nongke Academy.

Jin Qianbao replied it was impossible—the school strictly forbade students from keeping pets, parents, or small animals.

Fuli Lao Ye causing trouble at the start of term was entirely expected by Jin Qianbao.

“How dare you say that! If you hadn’t been constantly tackling professors and setting a bad example, how could the school have banned pets? The professors all wished students would bring their own organic fertilizer,” Wang Qiqi rolled her eyes and retorted.

The New Xing Nongke Academy banned pet ownership.

The real culprit was Jin Qianbao.

When Wang Qiqi first got her driver’s license, she directly smashed Jin Qianbao on a mountain road; during transport to the hospital and recovery, Jin Qianbao enjoyed the life of being fed and cared for, and simply refused to leave Wang Qiqi.

Wherever Wang Qiqi went, Jin Qianbao followed—even onto high-speed trains and into the school.

Jin Qianbao was a spirit beast seeking to bond with a master; the Anquan Bureau naturally didn’t interfere.

During Wang Qiqi’s studies, she carried Jin Qianbao with her.

Back then, Jin Qianbao was still young, full of mischief, and would occasionally leap onto professors and officials from behind to play with them.

It had fun, but its weight of dozens or even hundreds of pounds crashing onto elderly people left them battered; if Wang Qiqi failed a class, Jin Qianbao would ride on the professor’s back to get revenge.

Of course.

If that had been all, given Jin Qianbao was a spirit beast, they’d have just gritted their teeth and endured it.

But one incident led to the New Xing Nongke Academy’s total ban on pet ownership.

Wang Qiqi, due to her special status, studied exclusively in the Xiqi campus; then, in one incoming class, a brilliant fool suddenly appeared.

Seeing Wang Qiqi keep Jin Qianbao, during an ecological survey in Ningxia, he tried to imitate her pet-keeping method by attempting to domesticate a wild snow leopard.

The fool’s vital signs remained stable, but the academy’s director ended up with over twenty stitches on his buttocks.

Since then, the New Xing Nongke Academy fully enforced its ban on pet ownership.

“Lin the steward, come quick—take a photo of me and post it to my Moments.”

An Sheng, unaware of Wang Qiqi and Jin Qianbao’s idle chat or the electromagnetic launcher’s danger, stood on the fox kingdom’s lawn, beaming, a saddle bag on his back, holding up the electromagnetic launcher, asking Lin Bingyun to take two photos of him.

The electromagnetic launcher’s design was wildly sci-fi—like something straight out of a movie.

Previously, Bai and the others had posted pictures of their Stinger missile launchers on Moments for days.

An Sheng was jealous, but jealousy didn’t help—he couldn’t get one unless he returned to Longle City to join the raid on the Changsheng Club’s lackeys.

Fuli Lao Ye, with a new toy, naturally wanted to show off on Moments.

Otherwise, how would Bai and the others know Fuli Lao Ye was thriving in Changancheng?

Otherwise, how would Bai and the others know that Master Fuli was thriving in Chang'an?

Lin Bingyun had servants adjust the lighting and took photos of Fuli Lao Ye holding the gun from multiple angles; when posting to Moments, she specifically blocked A Qing so A Qing wouldn’t see Fuli Lao Ye’s Moments.

Lin Bingyun had the servants turn on all the lights and photograph Master Fuli holding a gun from multiple angles; when she posted them to her Moments, she specifically blocked Yu Xueqing so Yu Xueqing wouldn’t see Master Fuli’s Moments.

Seeing his handsome photo, An Sheng’s face lit up with satisfaction; he slipped his phone back into his saddle bag and boarded the electric sightseeing vehicle, heading straight for the Fox Research Institute.

At the entrance to the Fox Behavior Research Institute, the earless fox, face drooping, had already been waiting.

“Oh! Haven’t seen you in two days—you look great!”

Seeing the earless fox wearing a mask of agony, An Sheng grinned and waved.

“Just get her out of here! Please.” The once-proud fox king was utterly drained.

Before, Wang Ya couldn’t understand fox speech; the earless fox could vent its grievances with curses.

But now Wang Ya not only understood fox speech, but after three years of mysterious transformation, some of her internal organs had undergone unknown changes, granting her considerable power.

Even if all the foxes united to attack Wang Ya, they’d still lose.

Even if all the foxes of the Fennec Fox Organization united to attack Wang Ya, they still couldn’t win.

She enjoyed it.

“I can see your suffering, but you still have to get the job done for me!”

An Sheng patted the earless fox and smiled. “Look at me, Fuli Lao Ye—I’ve come here to deliver justice for you. We’re both foxes; you know the foxes don’t lie to foxes rule, right?”

An Sheng patted the fennec fox and smiled: “Look at me, Master Fuli, I’ve come here just to deliver justice for you. We’re all foxes—don’t you understand the rule that foxes don’t deceive foxes?”

“My reputation for honesty and steadiness is known throughout Changancheng.”

The earless fox’s lips twitched slightly, but it said no more.

When Fuli Lao Ye met Wang Ya and saw her flirting, the earless fox didn’t believe he could hold back.

He’d probably be the first to kick Wang Ya to Siberia to dig potatoes.

He might be the first to treat Wang Ya like a Japanese invader and kick her off to Siberia to dig potatoes.
