Shen Zhizhu quickly solved his needs, and then came outside with the faint light from the overhead light bulb.

There was still some moonlight in the corridor. Although a lot of it was not very clear, at least I had a general idea of ​​the direction.

Just as before, Shen Zhizhu held onto the wall and slowly walked back.

Suddenly, two white lights appeared in front of her, swaying up and down, like a pair of eyes. She was frightened and dared not move forward.

She thought about retreating, but the toilet was at the very end of the corridor and she had nowhere to retreat.

"Student Shen Zhizhu, student Shen Zhizhu, are you okay?"

Hearing his name being called from the other side, Shen Zhizhu swallowed nervously, thinking of the story told by the girl behind Xiao Tang, who also heard someone calling her name in the middle of the night.

Old people often say that if you are walking on the road at night and hear someone calling your name from behind, never turn around and never answer.

But wise seniors, why didn't anyone tell me what I should do if a monster appeared in front of me and called my name?

[Wait a minute, that figure walking towards me with a half-bent waist, and that voice talking, why do they look so familiar? 】

It was Zheng Xingyun. A man holding two mining lamps walked towards him tremblingly, looking around, turning back from time to time and calling his name in a low voice.

"I'm here."

With the light, Shen Zhizhu was no longer afraid. She quickly went to meet Zheng Xingyun, and then naturally took the mining lamp that Zheng Xingyun handed over to her.

Zheng Xingyun apologized embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, classmate Shen Zhizhu. I was the one who called you out, but I left you here alone and ran away. How are you? Did you encounter any problems?"

Shen Zhizhu shook his head, indicating that nothing happened to him.

"Don't worry, nothing terrible happened. I just went to the restroom and didn't see anything else. Did they tell me specifically what they saw?"

Their voices just now were so loud that they must have startled the teacher. If they can't explain clearly, I can convey them on their behalf.

Zheng Xingyun was a little embarrassed.

"No, after we ran back to the dormitory, Xiao Tang said that he saw a shadow flash past the window, but he didn't know what it was."

"What's going on? What happened? Why are you running around in the corridor so loudly in the middle of the night? Which class are you from? Who is your homeroom teacher?"

As expected, several teachers who lived nearby were attracted by the commotion and had worried expressions on their faces. It was late at night, on the first night after moving in, and something happened.

Zheng Xingyun didn't know what to say and could only stand close to Shen Zhizhu. As the leader of the class, Shen Zhizhu stood up.

"I'm really sorry. We are students in the same class, and our homeroom teacher is Ms. Zhou Fangyun. We went to the restroom together just now, and one of my classmates saw a dark shadow flash by. Girls are timid, and there is no light in the restroom, so she was frightened."

"Could it be that you saw it wrong? Where is the student who saw the shadow now?"

The teacher's expression was a little solemn. It was hard to say what happened to the black shadow. At the very least, it was probably a mistake. At the most serious level, it could be a prank.

Zheng Xingyun explained in a low voice.

"Tangxin said that she saw a shadow on the small window of the toilet. She didn't pay much attention to it at first, but suddenly the shadow disappeared. She thought... or thought..."

"Teacher, no matter what the reason is, it's best to call up the surrounding surveillance and check it out. Whether it's a mistake or the presence of a small animal, it will be more reassuring if you can check it out."

Shen Zhizhu interrupted what Zheng Xingyun was about to say. If he said that they were telling a horror story not long ago and then saw a black shadow, it is hard to say whether those people would think that it was a black shadow and hint in their hearts that they were mistaken and would not investigate further.

Shen Zhizhu also saw the small window of the toilet. It was not big, nor small. It could be an animal, or it could be something else.

The best case scenario is to check the surveillance footage near the small window to confirm what it is so that both parties can be reassured.

The teacher was still hesitating because she felt that she was just dazzled. It was normal to see things wrongly at night, and there was no need to ask someone to adjust the surveillance.

"Teacher, now that we are all together, it is very easy for us to communicate with each other. When the time comes, the word will spread from one person to ten people, and from ten people to a hundred people. Who knows how it will turn out."

After listening to Shen Zhizhu's words, the teacher also realized the seriousness of the matter and sighed.

"I understand. I will ask someone to investigate tomorrow. When you go back tonight, comfort her and don't let that girl make up stories. Also, always pay attention to her condition."

After giving a few more instructions, the teacher took everyone away.

When they returned, Xiao Tang was wrapping herself tightly in a quilt. There were a lot of people gathered around her, some asking her what happened and some comforting her.

"Don't scare yourself. It could be a flying insect or a cat or dog outside. There's no such thing as a ghost or a monster."

"Yes, Xiao Tang, we just finished telling a horror story and something like this happened. In most cases, it's just a mistake."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Tang shook his head violently.

"No, I saw it. There were eyes. There were two eyes on the black shadow. They were clearly the outline of a human being. I was definitely not mistaken!"

Xiao Tang was very emotional and desperately wanted someone to believe her, but no matter how hard she thought, she could not recall more details.

"It's late at night, it's so creepy. I told you not to tell horror stories at night, now it's dirty stuff that has come to my door."

Zheng Xingyun was not the only one who was timid. Some people rubbed their arms and complained, putting the blame on the person who suggested telling the horror story.

"Stop talking about it. Who could have thought of such a thing? Luckily I have a talisman with me. Let's sleep with the mine lamp on tonight. It's so scary in the dark."

It was passed unanimously.

After Shen Zhizhu came back, he walked to Xiao Tang, stretched out his hand to cover Xiao Tang's head, and stroked it gently.

"Don't be afraid, we are all here. The teacher said that someone will be sent to monitor tomorrow. Just go to sleep tonight. Don't you have other places you want to go tomorrow?"

Xiao Tang looked at Shen Zhizhu apologetically.

"I'm so sorry, I was so scared and left you behind by yourself. Are you okay?"

Shen Zhizhu shook her head. Perhaps their screams scared the shadow away, so when she went in, she didn't see anything.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Lucky classmate is back to pick me up."
