The Silent Scream of Dormitory 13

In the heart of a bustling university town, there stood an ancient dormitory, known to the students as Dormitory 13. It was said that those who dared to move in would never return, and the whispers of its haunted past were enough to deter even the most fearless souls. Yet, young Liu Wei, a first-year student with an insatiable curiosity, found himself drawn to the mysterious building.

Liu Wei had always been fascinated by the supernatural. He had read countless ghost stories and watched every horror film he could get his hands on. When the opportunity arose to move into Dormitory 13, he couldn't resist the temptation. His room was on the top floor, with a window that offered a panoramic view of the campus below. It was here that Liu Wei's nightmare began.

The first night, Liu Wei was too excited to sleep. He explored every corner of his room, marveling at the old wooden furniture and the cobwebs that clung to the ceiling. As the moon rose, casting an eerie glow over the campus, Liu Wei sat on his bed and tried to unwind. Suddenly, he heard a faint whisper. It was soft and distant, but unmistakably, it called his name.

"Li Wei," the whisper echoed through the room. Liu Wei's heart raced. He checked the room, but there was no one there. It was just the wind, he thought, but the wind didn't whisper names.

The next few days were filled with strange occurrences. Liu Wei would hear the sound of footsteps on the floor, even when he was the only one in the room. At night, he could feel the coldness of a presence watching him. He began to lose sleep, and his grades started to suffer.

One evening, Liu Wei decided to confront the source of the disturbances. He had heard rumors that Dormitory 13 was once the site of a tragic love story, involving a student named Li Wei and his girlfriend, who died mysteriously. Liu Wei's name was eerily similar, and he couldn't shake the feeling that he was connected to the past.

With a mix of fear and determination, Liu Wei began to investigate the dormitory's history. He spoke with the old professor who had lived in the building for decades and had heard the whispers of the past. The professor shared the tale of Li Wei and his girlfriend, who had been killed in a tragic accident. Their spirits were said to be trapped in the dormitory, unable to rest.

Determined to free the spirits, Liu Wei began a ritual of cleansing the dormitory. He cleaned every room, sweeping away the dust and cobwebs, and he spent hours in prayer and meditation. But the spirits were relentless. They continued to whisper Liu Wei's name, taunting him.

One night, as Liu Wei lay in bed, the whispers grew louder. This time, they were accompanied by a chill that ran down his spine. He could feel the presence of the spirits, closer than ever before. Liu Wei's mind raced. He had to find a way to break the curse.

The next morning, Liu Wei met with the university's spiritual advisor. The advisor, an elderly woman with a knowing smile, listened intently to Liu Wei's story. After a moment of contemplation, she spoke.

"You must find the lost love," she said. "You must bring them together once more, and only then can they be at peace."

Liu Wei's heart sank. He had no idea where to begin. But the spirits seemed to guide him. He followed the whispers to the old library, where he found a hidden room. Inside was a photograph of Li Wei and his girlfriend, and a diary filled with their love letters.

As Liu Wei read the diary, he discovered that Li Wei and his girlfriend had been trying to save a child from a fire in the dormitory. The child had died, and Li Wei and his girlfriend had blamed themselves. Their guilt had driven them to their deaths, and their spirits had remained trapped in the dormitory, unable to let go.

Liu Wei knew what he had to do. He began to search for the child's descendants. It took days, but he finally found a family in a nearby town. He shared the story of Li Wei and his girlfriend, and the family was moved by the tale.

Together, Liu Wei and the family returned to the dormitory. They held a ceremony to honor the spirits of Li Wei and his girlfriend, and to release the child's soul. As the ceremony reached its climax, Liu Wei felt a warm presence surrounding him. The spirits had been freed.

The next morning, Liu Wei awoke to a quiet room. There were no more whispers, no more coldness. He knew that the spirits were at peace, and he was free to move on with his life.

Liu Wei graduated from the university with honors and went on to pursue a successful career. He never forgot the lessons he learned in Dormitory 13. He carried with him the memory of Li Wei and his girlfriend, and the child they had tried to save. And he knew that sometimes, the past needed to be remembered, so that the future could be made whole.

The Silent Scream of Dormitory 13 had become a legend among the students, a tale of love, loss, and redemption. And Liu Wei, once a curious student, had become a guardian of the past, ensuring that the spirits of Dormitory 13 would never be forgotten.
