It was getting dark, the breeze rustled the leaves, and the whole street was no longer lively during the day, and everything was unusually quiet.

In the stillness of the night, the silence was broken by the barking of a dog or two. A girl hurried by, looking around from time to time.

Wan Ning tightly tied her collar, and the late autumn night was particularly cold because of the wind. She touched her forehead, feeling a little drunk and her mind a little confused.

Tonight was supposed to be just an ordinary alumni reunion. The roommate dragged her and a few acquaintances of the same department to eat at the hot pot restaurant. However, she didn't drink well and started staggering after being poured two glasses of liquor by her roommate. Everyone had a good time eating and planned to go to the bar to continue the party after the meal, but she didn't like that kind of place, so she found an excuse to go home early and went home alone.

It's not that Wanning can't drink, but her family background makes her strong. Her father died, her mother disappeared, and she grew up living in her uncle's house, and although she was not sent under the fence, she has always lacked warmth and love. She has been looking forward to university life, hoping to integrate into a new social circle, get rid of isolation and apathy, and become more cheerful and normal.

WeChat rang, and roommate Song Xiaoyan sent a voice message: "Wanning, are you back at school?" Where are you now? ”

Wan Ning felt a little strange, but still replied truthfully: "Well, I'm on this side of Longshan Road, and I can go back to school after walking for a while." ”

Song Xiaoyan's voice was pleasant, and she reminded Wanning with concern: "Ah, haven't you gone back to school yet?" The dorm closes at eleven o'clock, so you need to go back quickly. We're not going back tonight, so can you help us check out the student council in the dormitory? ”

"Okay." Wan Ning replied.

Wan Ning chose a shortcut and entered a familiar alley. She is a bold person, not afraid of the dark, and she has walked this path many times, even with her eyes closed. In order to get back to school as soon as possible, she didn't think much about it and went straight through the darkness.

Soon after, she noticed a red point of light flickering in the distance, and a man leaning against the wall smoking. There were red dots of light scattered on the ground, like discarded cigarette butts. Wan Ning frowned and slowed her pace, about ten meters away from the man. She sensed that something was wrong, what was it that was so late, alone smoking in a dark alley?

The moonlight was dim tonight, spilling only a small part of the alley, and the man was almost submerged in darkness, his face invisible.

When Wan Ning heard her own footsteps, the man turned around and her steps stopped. She began to consider whether she should return, but before she could decide, she heard the footsteps of another person behind her.

Wanning's hand reached for her bag, and she felt herself in danger. If these people are not good for her, it will be difficult for her to defend herself as a weak woman. She regretted her decision to walk alone at night, and she began to think soberly about the possibilities.

"Is that her?" Said a man behind him.

Wan Ning turned around and vaguely saw two men walking towards her.

"I guess it's a camel coat, a black bag, and long hair." One of them looked at her carefully, "Yes, that's her!" ”

"Okay." Wan Ning replied.

She felt a little strange, because according to Song Xiaoyan's character, she should have said hello to the student union a long time ago. Wan Ning and the four people in her dormitory planned to go out to eat in advance today, Song Xiaoyan is beautiful, has a wide range of interpersonal relationships, and has a good relationship with the cadres and teachers of the student union.

Still, Song Xiaoyan's reminder makes sense. There were still more than twenty minutes before the dormitory closed, and if she didn't get back in time, she might have to spend the night outside tonight.
