...
A month has passed since that night, and as usual, the girl stayed in the classroom to read while her classmates left one by one as the night grew darker.
Again, she was the only one left. She lifted her gaze from the page, contemplating whether to go back early because the previous event left her scared to be alone in the classroom.
At this moment, a muffled sound came from the corridor outside the window, mixed with some sort of shout, but unfortunately, it was too brief to expand before being suppressed.
What happened? The girl stood up, wanting to go outside and see, but recalling what happened a month ago, her feet stayed welded to the ground.
At this moment, a sound of arguing came through.
"Feng Xiang, you!" The voice sounded gritty, mixed with fear.
Then came the sharp sound of a slap, distinctly audible even inside the classroom.
"You actually brought people from another school—" Before the sentence finished, another slap cut it off.
