Inside the toilet, Xi Xiaye could hear the sound of footsteps outside. She did not find it out of the ordinary, so she tried to open the door after she was done flushing. To her aghast, however, she tried for a while and it still did not budge!
She frowned when she still could not open the door after several more attempts.
Obviously, someone had locked the door from outside!
Xi Xiaye then remembered the footsteps from earlier. It must have been that person!
She started to have doubts as her eyes were turned furious. She knocked on the door and yelled, "Is there anyone out there? Let me out! Anyone there?"
However, no one answered her as she kept slamming on the door. No matter how hard she tried, she could not open the door and no one was answering!
Xi Xiaye's heart sank as she started to feel uneasy. She anxiously wrung her hands and then she noticed she had not brought her handbag in.
