The work of Little Fish on Straw] A Box of Tapes (*Thriller Part 2) Author: Little Fish on Straw If you pick up a box of tapes, don’t listen to it... This is a very old three-story red brick building.

It doesn't quite match the other teaching buildings on campus. It is the school's fourth dormitory, where more than 300 girls live.

Jun, open your eyes, it's dark in dormitory 213.

"Ah Rong, Xiao Jing?" No one is there.

He must have gone to self-study in the evening. Really, he didn’t even call me.

Jun sat up all of a sudden.

Too lazy to turn on the light, Jun picked up his schoolbag under the moonlight and prepared to go to the library to find Xiaojing and Ah Rong.

The weather today is very spooky, not a single star can be seen, and there is a cold wind blowing from time to time.

The street lamps illuminated the road listlessly, and the wind was strong, making the leaves rustle like countless ghost hands swaying back and forth.

Jun couldn't help but quicken his pace.

When I arrived at the library, I met Teacher Zhang, who was in charge of the library. Jun asked hurriedly: "Teacher Zhang, are Xiaojing and Ah Rong here?" "They are here, let's go quickly." Teacher Zhang said with a smile.

Teacher Zhang used to teach ancient Chinese. Jun and the other three little girls who were learning Chinese always asked him if they had anything they didn’t understand.

At 9 o'clock, the bell rang for the end of evening self-study. Jun was still doing the last question because he was late, and he was holding on to Xiaojing and Ah Rong, refusing to let them go.

"Who told you not to wait for me?" Jun kept writing without even raising his head, and he was still short of the last sentence.

Xiaojing rolled her eyes in anger and said, "You're so embarrassed. Who told you to sleep like a pig? No matter how you squeal, you won't wake up." "It's done. I'm exhausted." Jun raised his head and glanced at Xiaojing.

.

There were only three of them left in the study room.

"Hurry up, the door will be locked soon." Xiaojing, this damn girl, is always pushing for something, like a ghost.

Jun put everything on the table into his bag.

"Okay, let's go." What is this?

In the dormitory, Jun took out all the things in her bag and prepared to rearrange them, but she found something that did not belong to her.

This is a tape with no cassette, no cover, no sides A and B. There are four words on the tape: Don't listen to it.

"Did he pack his schoolbag and come in when he left at the end?" Ah Rong speculated.

Jun shook his head, no, how could I know how to fit such a big thing into it?

"Don't worry about it, just listen to it first. It doesn't matter if you listen to it. It's not new anyway." The four words on the tape made the tape look very mysterious. Xiaojing has always been the most curious. She must listen to it.

.

"What are you listening to? It's not yours. Stop listening. Doesn't it say don't listen? There may not be anything in it. I'll take it to Teacher Zhang tomorrow and ask him to ask if someone has lost it." Jun said

Finished, got into bed.

"Anyway, I don't know who it is now. It won't be spoiled if I listen to it, right? Ah Rong, the cutest and gentlest classmate in our dormitory?" "Xiaojing, our dormitory's favorite flatterer, I don't care about this, I like to listen to it.

Just listen." Ah Rong said with a smile.

Xiaojing changed into her white pajamas, took out her Walkman, and casually put the tape in since there was no AB side.

"Tomorrow morning, I'll tell you what you heard." "You haven't taken off your headband yet, why are you so anxious?" Ah Rong said. It was a red gift given to Xiaojing on her birthday.

,very nice.

But it seems that Xiaojing didn't hear it, so let her go.

Ah Rong also got into bed.

Lights out.

In the middle of the night, Jun was awakened by a scream. When she opened her eyes, Ah Rong had turned on the light.

It must be Xiaojing. He told her not to listen, but she just listened. Why are you pretending to be so bold?

But Xiaojing was lying quietly on the bed, seemingly asleep, and her Walkman seemed to be turned off. Everything was quiet, except for the sound of rustling rain outside the window and the leaves beating the window.

Seeing nothing unusual, Jun and Ah Rong went to the toilet together and fell asleep again when they came back.

Early the next morning, Jun was sleeping when he was suddenly shaken awake. When he opened his eyes, he saw Ah Rong.

Jun hadn't slept enough, so he said angrily: "What are you doing? It's not dawn yet." "Jun, Xiaojing, she's gone!" What, she's gone?

Jun was startled, "I went to the bathroom, don't make a fuss." "No," Ah Rong said anxiously, "Look, her bed is cold, her clothes are gone, and the quilt is also gone."

Gone. It seems like no one has slept." After hearing Ah Rong's words, Jun jumped out of bed.

When I came to Xiaojing's bedside, it was just like Ah Rong said. This was too strange. Wasn't she still there in the middle of the night?

Why is there no one now? Even if Xiaojing left, would he still say something to them?

Besides, why did she take the quilt away?

There was only the Walkman on Xiaojing's bed. The tape was still spinning and had not stopped all night. The battery was old and should have run out of power a long time ago. How could it still be played?

It's all incredible.

Jun and Ah Rong's eyes couldn't help but fall on the Walkman.

Could all this be caused by the tape?

No way, Jun couldn't help but shudder.

Sure enough, Xiaojing didn't come back all day, and no one answered the phone at home.
