"My name is Sun Qiu, and I'm a third year student at Ping Chao Middle School.
Our school is very big, and there are many students. Most of them are boarding students, so after 9: 30 pm, the students will go back to the dormitory to rest.
"Usually, the night self-study session starts at 9: 30 pm, and we ask for lights out to go to bed at 10 pm.
"Our dormitory is on the sixth floor, and there are eight people in the dormitory. Actually, the time between the end of the night self-study session and the lights out is too short. During this period of time, we usually have to rush back to the dormitory, wash our clothes, socks, and brush our teeth. Basically, before we can even finish these things, a whistle will sound in the corridor outside. It's the dormitory management teacher asking us to turn off the lights and go to bed.
The dormitory management teachers were very strict. They were all middle-aged men who looked very fierce. Moreover, to be honest, most of the dormitory management teachers actually had a strong sense of tyranny.
They saw that we were students, so they scolded us. They didn't have high academic qualifications, but they were all good teachers. Sometimes, they would deliberately find fault with the students and scold them.
Moreover, when they scolded the students, it was very funny. It was like a meeting between leaders. They first scolded themselves to satisfy their cravings. They treated the students who returned late or used their phones to read novels as criminals and educated them. After they were done talking, they would let the students comprehend the spirit of their speech.
At the same time, they made the students stand in the office to write the so-called examination and thought report. They reflected on their own problems and set a limit on the number of words.
Actually, they only bullied us middle school students who were more obedient and younger. As for high school students, they didn't dare to be so arrogant.
Therefore, we all hated them. They would wander outside the dormitory after the lights went out. There was a window in the middle of our dormitory door, and we could see the situation inside from there. They liked to watch from there.
If someone spoke inside after the lights went out, or if someone used a flashlight or a cell phone, they would rush in with their keys like a mad dog, confiscate your things, and then pull you out of bed, take you to the hallway outside, or take you to their office for a scolding.
Therefore, every time after the lights went out, my roommates and I didn't dare to speak loudly. We were afraid that they would hear us outside. Some of my roommates used their phones, but we hid under the covers.
I liked to read novels, and my phone had been confiscated a while ago. So, I covered myself with a blanket and used the flashlight to read the novel.
In the past, I could watch like this for an entire night. After all, life in school was too boring. We could only go home and leave the school gate after two days off every month. Normally, we could only stay in school.
The morning self-study session started at 6: 30 in the morning and lasted until 9: 30 in the evening. Our morning and evening self-study sessions were for the teacher's lessons, so there was no such thing as voluntary or not.
Therefore, for me, the only entertainment and pleasure is to use the sleeping time in the dormitory to read novels.
That night, I began to read novels very early, I wrapped myself tightly in the quilt.
The weather was really hot, and it was easy to sweat under the blanket. It was stuffy and uncomfortable, but I couldn't care less about it. After a while, I turned off the flashlight and poked my head out to take a few breaths of fresh air. Then, I went back inside to watch.
At two in the morning, my roommates were asleep, and I got out of bed to go to the bathroom.
Oh right.
Our dormitory had four upper and lower berths, which meant that it could accommodate eight people. My berth was on the upper berth near the window and balcony.
There was a separate bathroom in the dormitory. It was very small, only big enough for one toilet bowl.
I didn't dare to go into the bathroom with the book in my hands, because if the lights in your bathroom were on for a little longer, the dormitory manager would notice it. He might directly use the key to quickly open the door and push open the bathroom door to check you. They used the key to open the door very quickly. They had practiced it!
I had a roommate who was watching mp4 in the bathroom while defending himself.
The dormitory manager suddenly rushed in.
People.
"Evidence."
Both.
This made him do several self-criticism and called his parents over. After that, my roommate stopped looking at those things, but he got closer and closer to his male deskmate.
Sorry, I went off-topic. That night, I was sitting on the toilet while thinking about the plot of the novel. Then, I heard footsteps coming from outside.
My heart skipped a beat. I was glad that I didn't bring the novel to the bathroom. Otherwise, I would be finished if I was targeted by this mad dog.
When I finished peeing and walked out of the bathroom, I suddenly heard a "Small Rustling" sound outside the door. I silently lowered my head. Behind the crack in the door, I saw a pair of leather shoes.
There was indeed someone standing outside. He was staring at me. He was waiting for me. I took a deep breath and prepared to go back to bed. However, after taking a few steps, I suddenly thought of a problem.
That was, the glass on the door of our dormitory was actually not high. I could stand there and see what was going on through the glass. However, why did I only see the dormitory manager's shoes and not his face when he stood there?
Could it be that he was squatting there and deliberately waiting for me to reveal a flaw?
Was he so sinister?
F * ck.
Old coins!
"Rustle, rustle, rustle …"
There was a friction sound coming from the other side of the door. It was very subtle and light. I heard it, as if someone was rubbing the wooden door of the dormitory with a key ring.
I wasn't holding a novel in my hand, so I had nothing to be afraid of. After hearing the sound, I wasn't in a hurry to go to bed. I walked to the door and put my face close to the glass. I wanted to see the situation outside and see what the dormitory manager was doing.
However, when I put my face close to the glass, I realized that it was very empty outside. There was no one there, and no one was squatting there.
I retracted my head and bent down to look at the crack in the door. However, there was really a pair of leather shoes there.
Who took off their leather shoes here?
I opened the dormitory door. To be honest, I wasn't really afraid at that time, nor did I think so much. After opening the door, I realized that there were no leather shoes outside the dormitory door.
I was bewildered and scratched my head in confusion.
"What are you doing? Why are you opening the door!"
A shout came from afar. I saw a black figure walking from the end of the aisle and pointing at me. I couldn't see which dormitory manager it was. There was something wrong with the aisle light and it wasn't very bright. However, I was so scared that I immediately closed the dormitory door and quickly climbed back to my bunk.
I didn't dare to immediately wrap myself in the blanket and turn on the flashlight to read the novel. I was afraid that my actions just now would attract the attention of the dormitory manager. He might stare at my dormitory alone. If he found out that there was a little light here, I would be finished.
Moreover, I was worried that he would find fault with me and open our dormitory door to scold me for opening it and poking my head out.
I waited and waited. I waited for a long time.
This was a battle of patience.
This was a game between the hunter and the wolf.
Really, this was not an exaggeration at all.
I wanted to go on reading, to be lost in the world of the novel, but I didn't dare, because after I went to bed I kept hearing the faint sound of a pair of shoes echoing in the hallway outside, sometimes near, sometimes far.
I looked at the time on my watch. It was already 2: 30 in the morning.
Damn it.
They were still searching for prey at this time!
The sound of leather shoes troubled me for a long time. I really wanted to continue reading the novel with the flashlight, but I really didn't dare.
From 2: 30 to 3: 00, the sound of leather shoes didn't stop. They would appear from time to time. I cursed the dormitory manager countless times in my heart.
If he didn't leave, I wouldn't dare to read the novel. I was so anxious.
At that time, I thought that it was because he had just gotten divorced, so he was in a bad mood. Tonight, he wanted to find someone who had made a mistake to teach him a lesson. That was why he was still so persistent at this point.
At this moment, the door to our dormitory was opened.
I was so shocked that I closed my eyes and pretended that I was sleeping.
My novel and flashlight were under my blanket. When he opened the door and came in, I was lying on the bed and doing nothing else, so I wasn't afraid.
The sound of leather shoes.
I slowly approached.
Drip.
Drip.
Drip.
It was accompanied by the sound of something dripping.
Moreover, I suddenly felt as if there was a wind blowing over. I was a little cold, and my body started to tremble uncontrollably.
Perhaps it was because the dormitory door was open and the balcony window was not closed, so the wind blew through.
The leather shoes walked to my side and stopped for a while. I kept myself breathing at a steady pace. At this moment, I felt that my acting skills were not bad.
The leather shoes stayed on my side for a while. Then, he silently left. Then, the door was closed.
I didn't dare to move.
I continued to lie down.
After about two minutes, the door opened again. Then, I heard the sound of leather shoes again. The door closed again.
F * ck!
When he closed the door the first time, he didn't go out. He was waiting for me to make a move!
Fortunately, I was quick-witted!
F * ck!
Finally, the sound of leather shoes could no longer be heard outside.
I heaved a sigh of relief.
Then, I covered myself with the blanket, turned on the flashlight, and continued to read my novel.
I read for about half an hour. It was so enjoyable. It was the exciting part.
"Plop …"
I heard a sound coming from the balcony.
Puzzled, I turned off the flashlight and stuck my head out of the blanket. I wasn't afraid of the sound from the balcony. As long as it wasn't the sound from the corridor, it was fine.
I stuck my head out of the bed and looked at the balcony. Actually, because of the moon, the visibility of the balcony was not bad. I thought that someone's clothes had fallen off when they were hanging outside, but I found that there were no clothes that had fallen off the balcony.
Then …
I opened my mouth in shock.
I saw it.
I saw a pair of leather shoes that had fallen on the balcony!
Leather shoes!
How could there be leather shoes here?
We were on the sixth floor, and I was on the top floor. No one lived on it, and it was impossible for them to throw something down. It was impossible for the dormitory next door to throw something over at this time, and it was even leather shoes.
Then …
While I was shocked,
A face,
An upside-down face,
Slowly slid down from the wall above the balcony,
My body almost froze, but I subconsciously watched as the adult man's face slowly slid down.
His eyes narrowed,
There was an exaggerated smile on the corner of his mouth,
Then …
He opened his mouth,
And blew a breath in my face.
And said:
"Hey,
I caught you,
