From the moment she stalked the Headmistress, the little white fox stopped running around everywhere. Every day, she watched the Headmistress from early and till late, becoming even busier than Zhuo Feng. Fortunately, this business was not without its rewards. According to her observations, the Headmistress would make the bastard living next door to Zhuo Feng fool around with her on the top floor every couple of days. When she didn’t call that bastard, she would call someone else up as a replacement. She saw five boys of 17 or 18 years old, all from the orphanage, being called up.
This was a pretty promiscuous private life, which made the little white fox want to wash her eyes every time she saw it. However, in order to get enough evidence as soon as possible, and not wanting to miss any events, she could only hold back in disgust and listen in from the corner. Then, she found a strange thing. Every time the Headmistress fools around, she would open a black thing and adjust the position to face her bed. When she finished fooling around, she took it and watched it with the little boy, giving out an ambiguous laughter from time to time.
The little white fox spent a day studying it, and finally figured out what a camera was and what a video was. She was growing more and more impressed with human intelligence. This kind of videotaping couldn’t be done by any spell, unless one used a magical treasure. Yet, humans have become so accustomed to it that all they need is a camera and anyone can record a video.
So, does that make it evidence?
After the two people left the room, she took the camera. It took a lot of effort for her to open it, only to find that there was nothing inside. Seeing that, she was frightened speechless, thinking it was broken by her, and called 001 quickly. [What happened? Shouldn’t you press this and then this? Why can’t I play it?]
[After testing, the data in the camera has been transferred. Perhaps, you have to learn to search and copy the data to get those data.]
[So troublesome?] The little white fox put away the camera, ran around the Headmistress’s room, and found a laptop. She has seen this thing before and knew how to open it, but she was completely oblivious on how to use it. She hesitated for a moment, but still didn’t take the laptop away. She still didn’t know if the data was in this laptop or not. If the Headmistress found out that something was suddenly missing, she would be on alert, and she may never find such good evidence again. It would be easier for her to learn how to use a computer.
After that night, Zhou Feng and Fang Linlin kept seeing the little white fox sitting in front of the computer all day since she arrived back at the pet shop. They were not sure why, but after observing her for a while, they figured that she might be particularly interested in computers. So, Fang Linlin got an idea and started searching for movies starring dogs. When she searched, she moved quickly, typing in pinyin, copying and pasting, switching pages, and so on. Fortunately, Fang Linlin especially liked her and liked to talk to her, and casually recited everything she was doing. Listening to her properly from the start, Xiaobai never forgot anything, and kept all the movements Fang Linlin did in mind.
On top of that, she saw Fang Linlin videotaping and recording a husky with her phone and posting it on their official pet store Weibo, and found out that the avatar they used was actually a picture of her! She stared at it, and Fang Linlin saw how cute she was, so she took lots of pictures and then picked out the cutest one and sent a nine-square grid post. Attachment: Let’s see the treasure of my shop, the most adorable girl in the world!
There was an immediate barrage of replies below, all saying how they loved her, how cute she is, how they wanted to take it home. The little white fox looked at the messages in amazement, never thinking the internet could have such a function, realizing she had a lot to learn!
In the evening, Zhuo Feng took her back to the dormitory. He was in a rare good mood, with the edges of his lips perked up. The little white fox looked at him curiously, jumping on him and barking twice.
Seeing her noticing his good mood, Zhuo Feng took out a certificate and a 1000 yuan and dangled it in front of the little white fox. “I won the province’s math competition, and I was awarded 1000-yuan. Let’s go buy you a roast chicken tomorrow on my day off, okay?”
The little white fox nodded, then saw Zhuo Feng take out the ranking list, pointing to the first name and laughing. “Look, this is my name. It said that this simulation test was very difficult, and I won first place. If I also get first in the college entrance exam, I’ll be a provincial champion and will get a big bonus, and that my college tuition would be waived.”
It’s about tuition and food and clothing. No wonder he was so happy. The little white fox was happy for him, and barked happily twice. [Great! I am proud of you!]
Zhuo Feng could feel the happiness from her voice. This was the first time that he shared with his family his good grades. It felt really good! He scooped the little white fox up in his arms and rubbed it for a little while before getting up and reminding her, “I’m going to go wash up, so be good until I get back. Be careful not to get caught.”
The little white fox nodded cleverly and ran out as soon as Zhuo Feng left. She had just learned so much and was eager to put it into practice. According to her observation, right now, the old witch should be fooling around with the bastard next door to Zhuo Feng. When she thought about the two doing it together, she couldn’t help but shiver all over, not from fear, but from revulsion!
Soon, the old witch called that bastard Xiao Zhou over, and Xiao Zhou, who had no bottom line, wanted to please the old witch, saying a lot of flattering things. Ever since he was punished by the little white fox, he has been desperately trying to regain the old witch’s favor and get a quota in the charity fund. Zhuo Feng was working hard to save up for his own college tuition and was preparing to leave the orphanage at the age of 18, but Xiao Zhou used his body to please the old witch in exchange for a chance to be sponsored by a kind-hearted person.
Why should he be jealous of Zhuo Feng’s excellence? It’s his own fault if he doesn’t work hard!
The little white fox, who also worked very hard on her cultivation, particularly despised such people and was especially disgusted by their depraved approach to each other, but she still raced up to the top floor to gather evidence. When she reached the door, she guessed from the two people’s voices that they were in the bedroom, so she used her metal spell to control the door lock and snuck in silently, hiding by the wall of the bedroom door to observe what was going on inside.
The two obviously couldn’t wait to make out upon entering the room, and threw their clothes and trousers all over the floor. The little white fox stepped on a pair of trousers with one paw, and felt something hard. Looking down, it was actually Xiao Zhou’s cell phone. She thought of Fang Linlin taking photos and videos of pets with her mobile phone, and quickly dug out the mobile phone, found the video mode, and recorded the two people.
Xiao Zhou fed the old witch a mouthful of red wine and said with an ambiguous smile, “It’s very comfortable when you’re a little tipsy, so I’ll serve you well later and make sure you feel good.”
The old witch closed her eyes, enjoyed his touch with intoxication, and said with satisfaction, “You still win over my heart the most. I’ll take you on a trip next month on vacation.”
“Thank you, Headmistress!” Xiao Zhou tried even harder to please her, and at the same time said, “Today’s results are out. Zhuo Feng was the first in the whole grade again, and I heard that there was no one better than him in other schools. Shouldn’t our institution’s funding quota… be given to him then?”
The old witch sneered, “He’s always been a little tough on respecting people, but if he offends too many people, he’ll be in trouble soon. Don’t mention funding quota, I don’t think he can even take the college entrance examination. I know your thoughts. You can rest assured that as long as you are good, this quota is yours. As for Zhuo Feng, once he offends someone and gets expelled, our institution can’t afford to have him.”
“Zhuo Feng had offended someone? Is it Zhuo Yichen? I heard that he stole Zhuo Yichen’s childhood sweetheart.”
“I don’t know about that, there’s no need to know that much. Anyway, ah…, someone wants to turn him into a stray dog. Tsk tsk, what a pity.”
(TNote: stray dog = someone homeless.)
The little white fox’s eyes widened. From the old witch’s expression, she could tell that what she was pitying was not the loss of a talent, but the fact that she hadn’t devoured Zhuo Feng yet! These two are so shameless. Luckily, everything has been filmed and it has enough evidence to expose them.
The little white fox didn’t take another look at the two people who rolled together. She took the mobile phone and ran to an Internet café. When a guest in a private room left, she sent the video to the computer and clicked it to play. At first, she was very slow, and her claws didn’t do well on the computer keyboard. She had to be helped by spells from time to time, and could only run out a few seconds before the guest came back. Later, after a few repetitions, she handled the procedures quite well.
Half an hour later, the Internet cafe became rowdy, with more than a dozen computers playing a man and a woman’s secret conversation in bed, with a lot of sensitive information in it. What ‘Headmistress’, ‘funding’, ‘offend people’, mess is this?! Those who saw the video passed it on to classmates and friends, and those who hadn’t seen it all gathered to watch it with them. They seemed to have discovered a shocking secret, and were excited.
The owner of the Internet café thought more about it, and hurriedly looked at the monitoring of the Internet café to find out who had uploaded those videos. Unfortunately, this place was a small alleyway shabby Internet cafe. Not to mention slow Internet speeds, they only had four surveillance cameras in total, with more than a few blind corners. Coincidentally, the computers that had the video uploaded were in those blind corners. No information could be obtained from the surveillance as to the identity of the person who did it.
Meanwhile, the little white fox was discreetly waiting in the corner, and when she saw that someone really posted the video on the Internet, she ran back to the orphanage happily and stuffed the cell phone back into Xiao Zhou’s pocket. After thinking about it, she was still unsure, seeing that the two were currently transferring the footage from the camera onto the laptop, she immediately took out Xiao Zhou’s phone to record the footage and sent it directly to the captain of the police department.
The two bad guys’ days were surely over. The Captain was so upright, the old witch won’t get away! And that black-hearted, disgusting Xiao Zhou, who told him to harm Zhuo Feng all day long? Just let his reputation stink in the garbage this time!
The little white fox spilled the beans on the orphanage’s dirty deeds and ran back to the dormitory with glee. She was exhausted from continuously avoiding surveillance tonight and had used a lot of spells. When she returned to the room, she jumped into bed and collapsed right away.
Seeing her lying down so listlessly, Zhuo Feng looked up and put his book away, hugging the little white fox. “Where have you been? Why do you like to run outside so much?”
[I left to solve some trouble for you, and earn some extra profit on the way.] The little white fox purred twice, rolled around and found a comfortable position to sleep in his arms. [Save your strength. Tomorrow, you will see the old witch suffer!]
