Back door?
If she remembers correctly, this door leads to the courtyard wall.
Zhou Jiao turned her head to look at the side door, over a meter wide, then at the big front door, pondering the purpose of this door...
In an instant, she felt both eerie and strangely excited.
She thought, if nothing exciting is happening in Beijing, there must be something interesting here.
Zhou Jiao concealed her delight, looking at the pile of antique wardrobes, wooden boxes, stripped-down screens, and other miscellaneous items, she paused for a moment before decisively collecting them into her space.
Indeed, there's an empty spot behind, unlike the dusty warehouse, this area shows signs of boxes having been piled up. Judging by the dust, it was cleared not long ago.
Zhou Jiao's eyes gleamed, she put back the pile of items, even abandoning a pair of round stools she discovered. If her guess was correct, everything here was marked intentionally by someone mindful.
