Song Yitang left the campus alone, with Ding Yiming following her every step of the way, waiting for his chance.
According to her memory, Song Yitang was nearly out of the city when she found the old man's dwelling.
It was a small bungalow with two large cracks on the wall, making it seem as though a strong wind could knock the house down, very dilapidated indeed.
Looking at the tightly shut door, Song Yitang hoped desperately that she wouldn't be so unlucky.
Could he be not at home?
Sure enough, she knocked several times without an answer and, confirming that no one was inside, Song Yitang could only turn back.
But this time, as she walked in the secluded alley, she heard someone else's footsteps. At first, she didn't pay much attention, but after walking in circles several times, she realized that person was still following her.
She kept her wits about her and repeated the trick, leading the person on a wild goose chase through the alleys, just like last time.
