Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: The Reason for the Obsession with Daji Found!

```

The next day, Fang Ye announced the reconstruction of the zoo at the morning meeting.

Most people had subtly strange and cunning looks in their eyes.

Linhai Zoo, with its daily visitor count in the teens or even single digits, wasn't the rebuilding just a waste of money?

He really is the foolish son of a landlord!

But Fang Ye just smiled slightly, unconcerned.

If the rebuilding could make the animals, the visitors, and himself happy, that was what mattered; making money was secondary.

Besides, he was using green leaf coins he had mooched for free.

The meeting had just ended when a rousing, spirited music began to play.

"In the imperial city where torn darkness growls and trembles..."

Fang Ye picked up his phone and saw it was an unknown number.

He answered with some confusion, "Hello? Who are..."

A loud and powerful voice came from the other side: "Hello, Director! I'm from the construction team you contacted! We're now at the entrance, and the security guard needs to confirm our identities!"

"Oh, oh!"

Fang Ye was somewhat surprised, the construction team summoned by the system had arrived so promptly, such efficiency!

"Hand over the phone to the security guard, I'll speak with him... Hello? Lei? Yep, they're the construction team I called, let them in."

At the main entrance.

One by one, the stalwart construction vehicles rolled in mightily.

Excavators, compactors, mud tankers...

On the trucks, there were huge scenic rocks and trees with large clumps of soil around their roots.

"Toot~ Toot~ Toot~"

Someone was whistling and gesturing, directing the way in front.

As they drove by, even the nearby road surface was slightly vibrating.

Inside the security booth, Lei's chin nearly dropped from astonishment: "Geez, what's all this about!"

...

The construction of the tiger area did not affect the enclosures where the animals currently resided.

Apart from the employees who occasionally gazed in the direction of the construction and let their imaginations run wild, everything else at the zoo went on as usual.

One o'clock in the afternoon!

Fang Ye was in the red fox enclosure, getting ready to start today's live stream.

He changed the title of the live stream room to "Director Teaches Everyone How to Bathe a Fox".

Lan Li aimed the phone camera at him and made an ok gesture, whispering, "Director, you can start now!"

In the first minute of going live, hundreds of impatient viewers flooded in, sending a barrage of comments.

"I'm here! Hello, Director!"

"Hello, Director!"

"No one's going to steal my first place!"

"Ah, I'm getting sleepy, and I was about to take a nap, then I saw the Director is live streaming! Whaa, you owe me a nap, Director!"

"Damn, I have class this afternoon! And it's linear algebra, the easiest subject to fall asleep in!"

"Office workers are shedding bitter tears! Eh, compared to a nap, watching the Director's livestream is more comforting to my weary soul!"

"Where's Jiaojiao? Where is she?"

"Director, what are you going to stream today?"

"Hi, everyone, I'm the Director! Has it felt like an eternity since you saw me yesterday?"

Fang Ye greeted everyone with a smile, "Last time I showed everyone the tiger, today let's look at some other animals! Our red fox is also very cute, right?"

While he was speaking.

A sneaky figure appeared from behind him.

```

It's Sugar Pack!

Sugar Pack crouched low, carefully stepping out with his paws as if he were moving through bushes, his shiny eyes constantly shifting, radiating a sense of slyness.

And when Fang Ye made a move, he would freeze like a statue, tilting his head and quietly observing, trying to judge if he had been spotted.

Then, he would leap forward another two steps with agile silence!

"Wow, what a cute little fox!"

"Hahaha, is it preparing to ambush the zookeeper? The little guy seems very clever, I think it could succeed in the ambush!"

"The zookeeper is a Druid, with the Heart of Nature skill! With his feet upon Dadi, all the mental fluctuations of nearby animals can't be hidden from him, I bet a lollipop it can't do it!"

"I bet it can, with my Kuangsan figurine!"

"Heh, you said it, I'll remember that!"

"Zookeeper, watch your back! Look behind you!"

Lan Li found the viewers' bets on the barrage quite amusing!

So, watching Sugar Pack sneak up on Fang Ye, she just chuckled to herself without giving a warning.

She was equally curious if Fang Ye would detect this sneak attack!

Sugar Pack crept quietly, and as it got closer and closer, viewers involuntarily held their breath, focusing intently on the screen, afraid to miss the exciting moment!

It seemed Fang Ye was unaware, still narrating to himself, "I wonder if everyone has seen a fox before? ..."

Suddenly, a faint and strange sound reached his ears.

"Hee-jee, hee-jee, hee-jee..."

It was like someone heard a hilarious joke but covered their mouth and forcefully held back a laugh.

Yet, a tiny sound still leaked out.

Fang Ye turned his head to look behind, and his gaze collided with Sugar Pack's, leading to a moment of stunned silence, a man and a fox staring at each other, wide-eyed.

"Hahahaha! Naughty little thing, were you about to ambush me?"

Fang Ye couldn't stop laughing at Sugar Pack's stealthy, comical demeanor, and Sugar Pack pounced to his feet, biting his shoe, then curled his eyes happily, yipping "yee yee yee," and started rolling on the ground, displaying his white belly.

"Ahhh, the little fox is too cute, my girlish heart is melting!"

"What's the name of this little fox? Naughty spirit?"

"The one who bet the Kuangsan figurine, hand it over now!"

"Darn it, I actually lost!"

"Humph, I told you the zookeeper is a Druid, you didn't believe me!"

"Too bad, it was so close to success! How exactly did the zookeeper find out?"

"You little mischief, trying to ambush me, tickle tickle!" Fang Ye chuckled mischievously and reached out to rua Sugar Pack's fluffy belly before affectionately lifting him into his arms, rubbing the little face.

"Yee yee yee~" Sugar Pack yipped affectionately as he snuggled in Fang Ye's arms.

Reading the barrage, he responded, "This red fox's name is Sugar Pack, not Naughty Spirit! Naughty Spirit is just a nickname for him. Sugar Pack is playful and personable, which is quite rare for foxes!

Someone asked how I discovered him? Can you guess?"

"Ay, zookeeper, stop keeping us in suspense! Explain already!"

"Fengxiang Longteng" tipped 99 shrimp balls!

"Zhou Yanxu" tipped a rice ball!

Fang Ye laughed and said, "Actually, it's quite simple, because when it was about to approach me just now, it was a little too pleased with itself and couldn't help but chuckle quietly, and I heard it!"

"Wow, zookeeper is awesome!"

"Foxes can laugh too? That's so interesting!"

"Look at Sugar Pack's eyes, they're like curved crescents, his smile is so sweet! The zookeeper is also full of adoration."

"Ah, this 'yee yee yee' sound, I've just lost a life!"

"Wuwuwu, now I understand why King Zhou was so captivated by Daji! I couldn't resist either!"

"Awei is dead, Awei is dead!"
