It's Cao Yan! Her eyes were bloodshot, and she grabbed my neck, fiercely questioning, "What did you hear just now? Tell me! What did you hear!"

"Cough... cough, I... didn't hear... anything..."

I was choked by her and couldn't breathe. Could it be that I'll die today? The air in my mouth gradually became thin.

Xiao Xiao came over trying to pull Cao Yan away, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't move her. Cao Yan's hand was like a pair of pliers, firmly gripping my neck.

Fortunately, at that moment, Zhang Xiaoxuan and Li Qing came back, and the three of them managed to pull Cao Yan away, saving me. I fell to the ground and gasped for air.

Cao Yan struggled to stand up and shouted, "Don't think you can threaten me like this..."

Before she finished speaking, a series of knocking on the door interrupted her. The dormitory suddenly became quiet. Only the eerie knocking echoed in the hearts of the five people in the room.

"Don't... speak... anymore..."

These four words slowly came from behind the door, and I suddenly remembered the contents on my notebook this morning, the content before I violated the taboo.

"When you return to the dormitory at noon, don't make any sound."

Then there was nearly ten minutes of deathly silence.

After the silence, came the heavy and intense knocking on the door, the sound of slaps hitting the door forcefully, one after another. It pounded on the hearts of everyone present.

As if by tacit agreement, none of us went to open the door.

Just with a "bang," a foot wearing blood-red high heels kicked a hole in the door panel, reached in, and then pulled back.

We all knew that this door would soon be broken, and death would soon be upon us.
