"What is it, Jia Ying? What did you see?" Xia Xiaoyu looked blankly at the Old Dormitory Building, but she saw nothing on any floor.
"Let's go upstairs. This time, I have to get to the bottom of this!" Tang Jiaying said something that left Xia Xiaoyu stunned, then hurriedly pulled her upstairs.
In the corridor, a series of footsteps echoed, and by the time Tang Jiaying and Xia Xiaoyu reached the Fifth Floor, Tang Jiaying was already eager to head to her dormitory.
The dormitory was empty, and the lights were off, creating an unusually quiet atmosphere.
"Eh?"
Tang Jiaying let out a soft exclamation and began searching on the balcony and behind the door of the dormitory, but she found nothing.
"Jia Ying, what are you doing? What are you looking for?" Xia Xiaoyu stood in the middle of the dormitory hallway, watching Tang Jiaying's actions with curiosity.
"I'm looking for someone."
After searching for a while without any results, upon hearing Xia Xiaoyu's question, Tang Jiaying decided to stop looking. She muttered under her breath.
"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for?" Xia Xiaoyu asked in surprise, looking at Tang Jiaying with a puzzled expression.
"Tang Jiaying, didn't you see? That woman was standing by our dormitory window when we were downstairs!" Tang Jiaying exclaimed, her eyes wide with astonishment as she looked at Xia Xiaoyu.
Xia Xiaoyu's heels almost hit the ground in a trend, no wonder Tang Jiaying stopped when they were about to leave Small Grove. From that angle, it was possible to see the Fifth Floor, even though it was dark. Xia Xiaoyu wondered if she could see anything.
But the problem was, she looked and didn't see anyone.
"That woman?" Xia Xiaoyu couldn't help but ask again.
"That's the one I saw leaving the dorm last time. I felt something was off. I didn't dare to ask then, but now that I've seen her again, I'm curious about what she was doing in our dorm."
Tang Jiaying mumbled, but Xia Xiaoyu felt a chill run down her spine.
In the dorm? The woman who left last time?
Xia Xiaoyu felt her hair stand on end. Even if she had been in the dorm, it couldn't be possible.
Because when they entered the dorm, the door was closed; she had opened it with her key.
Moreover, she hadn't seen anyone in the dorm.
"That's really strange," Tang Jiaying muttered again as she picked up a bucket and planned to go out to fetch water.
"Where are you going?"
"To get water for a shower!"
This girl really had guts. She truly didn't know if she was pretending or if something was off with her; she still hadn't realized that there was anything wrong with the situation.
Fetching water, the Water Room is so dark; how can she dare to go alone? Impressive.
"Wait, let's go together!" Xia Xiaoyu quickly grabbed a bucket and some shower gel and followed.
She isn't afraid to go to the Water Room, but staying alone in the dormitory is scary too, right?
It's just past eight o'clock now, and during this time, the Old Dormitory Building is very quiet because most students return around nine.
Perhaps it's because the Old Dormitory Building is rather dim; not many people are willing to stay alone in their dorms at night.
The Water Room is very quiet, with the incandescent lights blending with the white tiles, creating a glaring feeling.
In fact, the Water Room is quite large. Besides the individual toilets, there are also showers, which should have been renovated in recent years.
However, a toilet is still a toilet. As soon as one steps inside, there's a strong odor, mixed with a strange smell.
The lighting isn't very bright; it's somewhat dim, probably because it hasn't been changed in a long time!
There’s no one around. Compared to Tang Jiaying's calmness, Xia Xiaoyu feels a bit uneasy; this place isn't somewhere just anyone can stay comfortably.
"Jia Ying, when you're done showering, don't leave without me!" Knowing that Tang Jiaying showers quickly, Xia Xiaoyu felt it necessary to remind her.
"Got it! Hehe, I didn't expect Sister Xiaoyu to be so timid!" Tang Jiaying opened one of the bathroom doors and walked in.
It's not just a matter of being timid; anyone would feel scared encountering so many strange things alone.
Xia Xiaoyu rarely responded to Tang Jiaying's words before entering the fifth bathroom.
Sizzle—
Just as Xia Xiaoyu had not yet taken off all her clothes, the lights began to flicker and emit a strange sizzling sound, as if they were wet.
Bang...
The light suddenly burst with a flash of electricity, ringing crisply, and then, as Xia Xiaoyu felt a surge of nervousness, it inevitably went out.
Darkness instantly enveloped the entire bathroom, and before Xia Xiaoyu could think, a series of peculiar sounds began to emerge rhythmically.
"Creak... Creak..."
The bathroom door outside made a series of strange noises, resembling someone slowly pushing it open.
In the darkness of the bathroom, Xia Xiaoyu's heart nearly leaped into her throat.
Because that sound was someone entering and pushing the door open?
[Next chapter: Blood footprints in the bathroom. I originally planned to write and post it tonight, but I'm a bit scared. Maybe tomorrow... Recently, Xiao Fan's condition has been quite poor; perhaps it's just a quality issue or an update speed issue. However, recommendations aren't increasing, collections are stagnant. There are no comments either. Sigh... Taking a deep breath and shouting... Please support me...]
