Wang Xu has a secret.
He always sees something that others can't.
For example: On the green radish leaves beside the road, a small face winked at him;
The human-faced snake in the corner spat out a letter, as if to say hello;
The three-legged crow under the streetlight tilted its head and looked at him, with a look of familiarity in its eyes;

The nine-tailed fox told him: "We usually call people like you 'Awakened'."
"For what?"
"Responsible for registering exotic animals, mediating disputes, and handling violations." She paused, "Simply put, she is our neighborhood committee aunt."
Wang Xu: "... Is there a staff?"
