That night, I was almost falling asleep when suddenly I heard footsteps in the room.

"Thump! Thump!"

The footsteps were very light.

But I heard them clearly.

I abruptly opened my eyes and saw the outside streetlight reflecting in the mirror, casting a shadow on the floor.

Looking closely at that shadow, it seemed like a person.

The figure of the shadow was not tall, resembling that of a child.

Instantly, a chill ran down my spine. I quickly turned on the light and looked toward the mirror, but there was nothing there.

Maybe I saw it wrong.

I comforted myself, rested for a while, and then turned off the light, curling up in the blanket.

Perhaps I was indeed tired from preparing for the high school entrance exam during this period. Not long after I turned off the light, I started to feel drowsy.

"Thump! Thump!"

Damn it, I heard the footsteps again.

There was no way I could fall asleep now. I wanted to poke my head out from under the blanket and turn on the light to see what was going on.

But my mind was clear, yet my body remained immobile.

"Thump, thump, thump!"

The footsteps were getting closer, and I even felt like she was standing in front of my bed, looking at me.

I was very scared. I tried to call out, but my throat could only make a whimpering sound...

I struggled in vain for a while, and she left.

The "thump, thump" footsteps paused at the door, then the door opened, and the footsteps continued down the stairs...

After a while, the outside returned to silence, but my body still couldn't move.

The ticking sound of the alarm clock, at this moment, made time seem to pass very slowly.

Although I couldn't see that thing, my intuition told me that she came out of the mirror. It was Tang Xiaoxiao.

Didn't Grandpa Zhao take care of her already? How could she still come out?

"Bang!"

While I was in a state of confusion, a muffled sound suddenly came from outside the window.

Immediately after, there was a scream from downstairs.

"Oh my god! Someone jumped off the building!"
