  We investigate the hidden strange light baryon-meson system. With the
resonating-group method, two bound states, $\eta'-N$ and $\phi-N$, are found in
the quark delocalization color screening model. Focusing on the $\phi-N$ bound
state around 1950\,MeV, we obtain the total decay width of about 4\,MeV by
calculating the phase shifts in the resonance scattering processes. To study
the feasibility of an experimental search for the $\phi-N$ bound state, we
perform a Monte Carlo simulation of the bound state production with an electron
beam and a gold target. In the simulation, we use the CLAS12 detector with the
Forward Tagger and the BONUS12 detector in Hall B at Jefferson Lab. Both the
signal and the background channels are estimated. We demonstrate that the
signal events can be separated from the background with some momentum cuts.
Therefore it is feasible to experimentally search for the $\phi-N$ bound state
through the near threshold $\phi$ meson production from heavy nuclei.
