Long long ago, there was a planet in outer space.
Its environment was almost identical to Earth’s environment.
Of course, there were aliens living on that planet.
After centuries of reproduction and evolution
these aliens formed their own civilization.
One day, their scientists predicted that their galaxy would collapse soon.
To take refuge, they got on space ships and migrated to other planets.
One group came to Earth.
They refer to themselves as the Fox people.
The earthlings of ancient times were terrified when they saw the Fox people.
According to "Lost Records," a huge ship once floated over the West Sea.
People on the ship wore crowns. Their bodies, covered in white feathers.
They could fly without wings.
That was our first impression of the Fox people.
To fit in, the fox people kept evolving.
They look like earthlings now and lead their lives like we do.
The struggle between the humans and the Fox people never ceased.
During the Tang dynasty, there was a scholar named Dai Fu.
He was interested in the romance between people and foxes.
He believed that love was transgressive.
After he passed away, his son made an anthology of the stories he wrote.
The anthology was published under the name "Broad Records of Strange Stories."
This anthology was celebrated by its readers.
With the effort of the storytellers, the stories spread among people.
People grew less curious about foxes. They became afraid of them.
The Fox people noticed that the humans were becoming less friendly.
They had no choice but to hide their identities and blend in.

[Episode 6] [This story is fictional.]
Your heart beats so slowly!
Are you really from the heavens?
Of course!
I didn't lie to you.
When the moon turns into a golden hook...
there will be a bright star next to it.
My people lived on that star.
It's called the Planet of Heavenly Fox.
How long does it take for your people to travel here?
I don't know either.
It must have taken them years.
Then...
Are you...
Are you human?
I'm a fox.
I've lived for many years.
But you don't seem old to me.
Then...
I want to be a fox too!
Why?
Because foxes can live for so long.
If I don't age...
I can be with you for a long, long time.
How many heartbeats did you hear?
Three.
Do you believe me now?
You might have a heart problem.
Guan Pi Pi.
I think you need to go to the hospital and get it checked.
Are you scared right now?
No?
I just feel...
If you have a heart problem
you should go to the hospital.
I understand how you feel.
I'll leave now.
Our interview is not over yet.
I can't interview you anymore.
People will laugh at the story.
Who's going to believe it?
It's okay as long as you believe me.
Thank you for dinner.
Thank you, Mr. Helan.
Sir, would you like to order?
Give me the seafood fried rice.
That dish is for two people.
The portion is big.
Is there anything for one person?
How about beef over rice for one?
I'm sorry.
Are you blind?
You got my shirt all wet!
I'm sorry. It wasn't on purpose.
You'll pay for this.
She already apologized.
You should leave her alone.
Where did you come from?
It's none of your business.
What are you doing?
You'll pay for this!
You'll pay!
You will!
Thank you so much...
Waitress.
Could you get me some water?
Sorry, sir.
We're closing.
It's all right then. I'll get the check.
Mr. Helan, where are you going?
You can't see her in this state.
You scared her last night.
I scared her?
I don't know what's wrong with being honest with the one you love.
Is it wrong for me to tell her the truth about me?
You're not wrong.
But most people find it scary...
when they find that someone's heart only beats three times in a minute.
Hui Yan always believed me in the past.
This time is different.
Master.
People didn't have internet before.
The internet makes people believe that they know everything.
They can't accept the unknown anymore.
I think you should give Ms. Guan some time.
Also...
Xiu Xian is looking for her now.
So you're telling me...
that raccoon's heart beats three times a minute?
- He's a fox... - Fox!
His heart beats three times a minute. What else?
Then I ran into a drunk person who tried to harass me.
A kind stranger helped me out.
Then I had a weird dream.
I dreamt that I was on a lake with him.
On a lake?
He didn't fly you to the moon?
Xin Xiao Ju.
I'm not joking.
Do you believe me or not?
I believe you.
Why wouldn't I believe you?
- You believe me? - Yeah.
How can you believe me when I don't even believe myself?
You forgot, when we were in school...
the stories my dad told were much scarier.
Why don't you talk to Tian Xin?
She knows more.
She'd never believe it.
Things like this don't exist.
Why can't it exist?
Einstein said that science can only prove existence.
It can't prove non-existence.
When did Einstein say that?
Or maybe my dad said that.
Now there's a person who shouldn't exist.
What?
Tell him I don't exist... Wait...
Tell him I'm not here.
- What? - Just do it.
Hurry. Hurry.
Mr. Freak.
Another all meat sandwich for you?
I have serious business to tend to.
Are you delivering a package?
I'm here for Ms. Guan. Mr. Helan is worried about her.
Ms. Guan?
I'll tell her if I see her.
Ms. Guan!
Can we talk?
Ms. Guan.
Mr. Helan wants me to apologize to you on his behalf.
He said that you guys had some sort of misunderstanding.
He might have scared you.
Scared?
No...
Why would I be scared?
So his heart beats slowly.
Every heart is different.
That's normal...
Is it normal?
- Yes. - Really?
That's great, Ms. Guan.
In that case, Mr. Helan wants to see you this evening.
This evening?
I have to work at the magazine.
How about after dinner?
I have to work then too...
- How about a late night snack? - Pi Pi!
Didn't you mention a meeting? You should get going then.
Right!
I... I'll be off then.
Ms. Guan!
What should I tell Mr. Helan?
Sit down.
Have some food.
Why do you keep scaring her?
When did I try to scare her?
How did you know she was behind the counter? X-ray vision?
Pervert!
Sir...
Qian Hua is very busy right now.
Maybe you should come another day.
Liu Ran.
I got this.
I thought you were busy?
You're already here, aren't you?
You're not welcome here.
What do you want?
Why are you looking for him?
No matter what it is, it's between Right Priest and me.
It shouldn't concern you.
You're looking for Princess Xi Yan's Golden Flower Mirror.
Why does he need it?
He knows what he needs.
You know Helan Jing Ting can't take Master Qing Mu's position.
Why are you still helping him?
He's a half-blood bastard.
Left Priest.
Watch what you say.
Master Qing Mu is your stepfather.
He's also the main priest of Fox Clan.
You're putting him in a difficult situation with your words.
Qing Mu was already engaged to Princess Xi Yan.
But he had that bastard with some random human.
He even made that bastard his heir, regardless of the opposition.
Helan Jing Ting is not qualified to lead the Fox Clan.
A few days ago...
He asked me about the pearl.
What now?
Was it not for you?
I advise you to stop wasting your time on him.
If you ask me...
I'd say that Right Priest is more much qualified for the position than you are.
My time is very valuable.
I won't see you out.
- Some more for you. - Thanks!
You're welcome.
Go get it!
So foxes are different from dogs?
Of course. Are you guys not different from apes?
Also, please don't compare me to such scary creatures.
Aren't you afraid of what you've learned?
Why would I be scared?
Fox fairies, aliens with three heart beats...
I wouldn't be scared even if your heart stops beating!
- Aren't you afraid that I'll eat you? - Eat me?
Human beings have eaten so many of the animals in the world.
It's about time for there to be something that will eat the humans.
I hope others feel that way too.
I don't know how other people feel.
But I feel that way.
My dad is a math teacher.
People often call him a lunatic.
Because he likes talking about deduction and telepathy.
The things he talks about can be explained by science.
He even told me that he can deduct whether or not monsters exist.
Monsters? Stop joking aroud.
I'm not joking!
Do you want to hear a story?
- What story? - Look over there.
There's a park over there.
My dad walked past that park every day when he was in high school.
There was always a girl in a white dress, staring at him from that park.
She just stared at him.
She didn't speak.
One day...
My dad was too curious.
He followed the girl into a rundown building.
He followed her all the way to the top floor.
He saw the girl entering a room.
She closed the door behind her.
That room was the only one in the whole building that wasn't lit.
So my dad peered through the keyhole...
How was the chair knocked down?
My dad was curious too.
How was it knocked down?
At that moment...
A neighbor came out.
She told my dad that a girl used to live in that room.
But that she had hung herself three months ago.
No one lived in that apartment after that.
After she left, my dad peered through the keyhole again.
But he didn't see anything this time.
He just saw the color red.
Why is that?
Because...
People who die from hanging...
Their eyes...
always turned red.
How is that possible?
There's no such thing in the world.
My dad also said that anyone who hears this story will encounter...
Stop right there! Nobody will be in front of my door.
There are no ghosts, okay?
There are no monsters in this world.
So there are alien foxes in this world.
But there can't be any ghosts or demons?
Of course! We believe in science!
Then you're a scientific coward!
The truth is... Human beings can be much scarier than monsters.
What?
Welcome!
Hello.
Long time no see!
Long time no see.
Well... Can I talk to you in private?
- We can talk here. - Right. Just talk here.
I have a favor to ask.
Did you guys fight again?
No... No...
She's giving me the silence treatment now.
But I'm still very thankful.
She was sweet to me for a while.
But I somehow angered her again.
She keeps talking about what happened.
Her birthday is coming up.
I don't want to fight with her.
But really... I'm at fault here.
I shouldn't have asked you to anger her.
It is my fault.
We're friends.
I'll just tell you the truth.
I want you to go apologize to her with me.
Wouldn't it be more sincere if you just apologize to her yourself?
I will apologize to her.
But you were there too, right?
I thought you could explain it for me. Tell her that it was just an act.
Please! Just help me.
Then it's a deal.
I'll see you at the bar at 10 tonight.
I'll wait for you.
By the way...
Can you tell her it was your idea?
Why?
So she won't get mad at me.
You understand, right?
We're bros!
Help me out!
I'll see you tonight!
You aren't actually going, are you?
Just eat your food.
You coward!
What?
When are you going to submit your interview from last night?
I haven't finished it.
Hurry up!
You have a visitor.
Why would I have a visitor?
I thought it was weird too.
But the guy is tall and handsome. He's wearing sunglasses.
He said he had important business.
Sunglasses?
Tell him that I'm off today.
Why?
Just tell him that.
- Huh? - See you!
You... Where are you going?
Why is she acting all mysterious?
Hello. Is Pi Pi here?
She didn't come in today.
She didn't come?
She might have left for an interview.
You can leave your contact information.
It's all right. Thank you.
All right.
Hey, where are you?
Why didn't I see you at school?
I'm at Pi Pi's magazine office.
What are you doing there?
I think I need to tell her.
We can't hide this from her.
- How did Pi Pi... - She's not here.
I'll hang up now.
I have to prepare for a skype interview with the American advisors.
Okay.
Hey.
Is Tao Jia Lin here?
Tao Jia Lin?
He just left.
He probably left the school.
Do you know when he's coming back?
Not sure...
Thank you.
Who's that girl?
Tao Jia Lin's girlfriend.
Isn't he with Tian Xin from the Music Society?
It's complicated. Let's not talk about it.
Tian Xin!
Pi Pi?
Why are you here?
I'm so glad you're here.
I was looking for Jia Lin. But he left the school.
Can I borrow your phone?
I broke mine last night. I can't contact him.
Of course.
- Here. - Thank you.
He isn't picking up?
Maybe he's doing an interview.
You can call him later.
Can I spend some time with you today?
Of course!
What's wrong?
Are you feeling sick?
I'm okay.
By the way, last night, I saw you with...
Tian Xin.
We got everyone.
Let's go.
Okay. Just wait a minute.
We'll wait for you over there.
- Okay. - Let's go then.
Where are you going?
They prepared a farewell party for us at Plus.
Can I go with you?
I thought you didn't like bars.
I don't want to be alone today.
Can you bring me with you?
Okay.
Jia Lin can find us there when he's done.
- Okay. - Let's go.
Human beings are so strange.
When they see someone they like...
they lose themselves.
They will do anything for love, no matter how unreasonable it is.
Can't they tell that they're being used?
They're so silly.
Mr. Kuan Yong.
I want to ask you, why are human beings so dumb?
They lose themselves when they see the person they like.
They will do anything for love no matter how unreasonable it is.
Can't they tell that they're being used?
So...
What do you want me to do?
Kuan Kuan.
I like you even more now.
Come with me.
Where?
What would you like to eat?
Anything is fine.
What do you want?
- This place looks good. - Let's check it out.
Are you okay with this?
- This place. - Okay.
You guys go in first.
I'll get some drinks.
They have drinks in there.
It's cheaper this way.
Let's go in now.
I'll wait for you in there.
- Can you bag this for me? - Okay.
I am so sorry.
I don't have enough change.
Can you wait here?
It's okay. It's on me.
No... No... My friend is in there.
I'll borrow some money.
Just take them.
Xin, can I borrow some change?
- Is that enough? - Thanks!
Here you are!
I don't need it.
That's not okay.
Can you give me some blessings?
Blessings?
How do I do that?
May I bother you to touch my head?
Well... Why?
I'm sorry for offending you!
Please don't blame me.
Please stop.
I'll just touch your head then?
Two with chicken.
One with pork. One with beef.
- Two with chicken, right? - Right.
Okay.
Is that okay?
Thank you.
I'm sorry for offending you.
Please don't tell Master Priest.
Master Priest?
Are you talking about Helan...
I can't just say his name lightly.
So you know him?
Master Priest?
I don't know him.
Not just anyone can get to know him.
Unless...
Unless you want to introduce us.
But...
How do you know that he knows me, if you don't know him?
That's because he planted his aroma on you.
You're also wearing his pearl.
When you wear his pearl, you'll share his unique scent.
How could he do this without even asking me?
Does your Master Priest like planting his aroma on people?
Does he give a lot of people his pearls?
Master Priest would never plant his aroma on other people.
Unless she is his woman...
Just take the money.
Miss? Miss?
Your food is ready.
- Be careful. - Thanks.
What's wrong?
Let's okay. Let's eat.
Let's eat.
Pi Pi.
You're acting weird today.
I'm okay.
I might be stressed out because of work.
What's wrong?
Our stop is coming up.
Pi Pi, what's wrong?
I'm okay.
Jia Lin said that his interview was over. He's coming.
What are you looking at?
Xiao Ju seems to like that guy over there.
Isn't he here with his girlfriend?
That must be her.
They said they broke up.
But they reunited.
Xiao Ju would be so sad to see them.
Xiao Ju?
Isn't that Xiao Ju?
Why are you guys here?
Xiao Ju. Keep Pi Pi company.
I'll dance for a bit.
No... I'm busy...
I'm busy.
Why are you busy?
It's my friend's girlfriend's birthday. I'm here for fun.
Which friend is it?
Is it Chen Nan?
Relax.
It's just a birthday party.
Wait here. I'll find you soon.
Xiao Ju, will you just sit with me?
I'm a little scared.
Why are you scared with all these people around?
Are you worried that a fox might eat you?
It's okay. I'll find you soon.
Just sit here, good girl!
Why are you two here?
Ms. Guan, what a coincidence!
We're here for Xiao Ju.
Xiao Ju?
What do you want from her?
Is she with Chen Nan right now?
I think so.
Where is she?
Over there.
Thank you.
Pi Pi.
Jia Lin.
I looked for you all day.
I have to tell you something.
I need to tell you something too.
Jia Lin, you made it!
I need to tell Jia Lin something.
Excuse us, Pi Pi.
Secrets are like Pandora's box.
You must face the consequences, even if you open it by accident.
We discover secrets.
Secrets change us.
We fall into the trap of the secret.
And we become part of the secret.
