Kana stood frozen in front of her room, her hand hovering over the door handle. The corridor was quiet, the only sound being the faint hum of the overhead lights.
Her gaze lingered on the door lock, scanning for any scratches or signs of tampering—but there were none.
Even so, her gut told her something was wrong.
She hesitated, chewing her lip as her thoughts spiraled. Was she overreacting?
Maybe she just imagined the rustling sound earlier… but the figure she'd seen running away from the corridor was real. There was no mistaking that.
Just as she was about to force herself inside, a familiar voice called from behind.
"Kana? What are you doing out here?"
Kana turned and saw Emma approaching, her light steps muffled against the carpeted floor. Emma was dressed casually, her long hair tied back loosely, and it looked like she'd been out for a nighttime stroll.
Kana hesitated for a moment, then exhaled sharply and walked toward her.
"Emma… someone tried to enter my room."
