In the bedroom, there was a faint chill amidst the silence.
Cuicui, sleeping near the door, suddenly felt a cool breeze sneak under her covers. She groggily opened her eyes and looked towards the crevice by the door.
"Oh no, did I forget to lock the door before sleeping?"
Cuicui yawned as she slowly crawled out of bed.
Using the corridor light seeping through the door crack, she unintentionally glanced at the neighboring bed and realized that Xiaojuan was not in it.
"Did Xiaojuan go out?"
Cuicui gently opened the door and peeked into the corridor, but saw no sign of anyone.
This girls' dormitory has been around for some years, with the peeling paint and dim lighting in the corridor giving it a somewhat eerie feeling during the quiet of night.
Especially with the long corridor and the swaying shadows of trees cast through the window at the end, adding to the weirdness.
Cuicui shivered involuntarily and pulled her head back inside.
