There was no reply and she felt an uneasy feeling deep down in her stomach.

She dressed herself quickly and went outside, but there was no one there.

Luosang thought she might have misheard something and left it at that. She dried her hair and then laid in bed to read.

At around 10pm when she was about to go to sleep, a series of footsteps could be heard followed by rattling knocks on her door.

She got out of bed and opened the door. She was greeted by a group of girls. Standing in front was Ni Miao and He Ruyi from her faculty. The dormitory housekeeper, Aunty w.a.n.g was there too, along with two police officers in uniform.

“Police officer, it’s her! I saw her leaving Ni Miao’s room in the evening. She must have been the one who stole the money,” He Ruyi pointed accusatively.

Luosang looked grim, “What money?”

Aunty w.a.n.g looked upset, “Ni Miao lost five thousand dollars from her wallet and someone saw you leaving her room in the evening suspiciously. It was Ni Miao’s cla.s.s fees for her training course, and she called the police afterwards.”

“I didn’t enter her room in the evening,” Luosang was shocked at the outrageous accusation, and then she recalled the noise she heard earlier when she was showering. She knew something was up and hurriedly explained, “I came back to the room straight after cla.s.s and had a shower.”

“Do you have an alibi?” the police officer asked.

Luosang frowned. It was a Sat.u.r.day, and there weren’t many people around in the dormitory. She b.u.mped into a couple of people on the way up but no one she knew, and her roommate wasn’t around too so she had no concrete alibi.

“I guess you don’t,” the police officer pushed her aside, “I’m sorry, I’m going have to search the room. Which bed is yours?”

“The one in the center,” someone pointed out quickly.
