Random stalker walks up "I know your secrets", MC goes "I'll follow you and trust everything you say", stalker "I want into your pants" MC "Just find this person I was looking for and I'll sell my soul or whatever, totally worth it"
Not to mention how MC completely trusted that super suspicious fox guy, if someone says they know your friend, 1 it doesn't make them friends and 2 it doesn't make you their friend... Don't be scammed people, don't be MC.
