CHAPTER SIX564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJwCths0da
Kim sat in the far corner of the dormitory hallway, her back pressed against the cool cement of the wall. The dim light from the overhead bulb flickered, but the quiet made the silence feel thick—heavy, almost suffocating. Outside, the low hum of the city’s busy streets seemed far away, as if the entire world outside had faded into the distance.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxigYmkcsw
She was waiting for a moment, just like any other night, when her thoughts could settle.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡga8wCGvZVS
But then, a rustle in the shadows caught her attention.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoXkn9giEV
“Did you hear?”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkbG5rUTvv
The voice was low, careful, like someone was trying to keep something hidden even though they were standing right there, just a few feet away.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvse8knFM8W
Kim froze. Her heart picked up speed.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrOdu6sNN8
“They were over again,” the voice continued, sounding almost pleased. “They didn’t even make it past the wall this time, but ... they were close.”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PULK5DzIc
Kim’s eyes widened. Who? She hadn’t heard anything about the boys crossing over again? Usually, it was just whispers or passing glances—nothing serious. But the mention still made her skin prickle.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJtkWcWCnc
“They’re getting bolder,” the second voice replied. “We can't let it slide anymore. They know what happens when the boys come too close to the dorms. What happens when they cross the line.”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLHIOZMznj
Kim barely breathed. She had heard stories about the girls who watched the wall—the ones who seemed to always know when someone was lurking too close. The ones who made sure no boy ever made it past the threshold, no matter how hard they tried.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93gwOpoBXD
A girl, Judy, had once told her in passing about an incident two years ago, when a boy had been found near the girls' dorms after dark. No one spoke of it much after that. The boy had been sent home. He’d never returned to school, his name erased from the roster, his face forgotten.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoJPQrLotu
But Kim didn’t realize then how deeply that secret ran.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvl5PsXEkg
“You think the teachers don’t know?” the first voice continued, mocking. “They see us. They see everything. But they’re scared, too.”564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhnjyIwbGt
Kim's breath caught as she leaned in slightly, listening harder now. Her curiosity, and the unease gnawing at her, refused to let her pull away.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIApGx8pXwI
Kim’s blood turned cold.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtGkAuQdK2
She hadn’t realized the extent of the wall’s power. Not just a physical barrier between schools, but a place where things disappeared. And the students who crossed that line? They didn’t just get caught. They got erased. Wiped from the school history as if they had never existed.564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtkwAe1TiT
The silence that followed felt heavier than any sound. Kim’s mind raced. Who were these girls? What power did they have over everyone? Were they the ones watching, making sure no one ever crossed the line?564Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPpLOH3FXl
And why did no one ever speak of it?1234 copyright protection560ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlJe0fCu0n 尼
