But after she made the call, all she got was a busy tone, which was so loud that her heart beat faster.
Qiao Yan tried several times, but the regular phone calls and the calls on social media apps didn't go through, and the messages also didn't go through. After sending them, there was only a red exclamation mark.
She sighed, hugging the box and leaning against the wall. Was she really going to be trapped here tonight? She didn't know if everything would be solved if she made it through the night and waited until dawn.
