The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 86

Sylvia's POV:

There was another knock on the door. Flora scooted over and nudged me to open it. I slowly walked toward the door, stretching out a shaking hand to the knob. When I opened it, it was just a patrolman doing the routinely roll call.

I sighed in relief. The knock was not at all what Flora and I had thought it was going to be.

However, the patrolman didn't leave and move to the next door immediately. Instead, he stepped inside and began to check around our room. Flora was confused, but she obediently opened up a cabinet for him to check anyway.

A part of me felt that something was not right. Normally, we would have been informed of a routine check ahead of time.

"What's this sudden inspection for? We don't remember getting any notices about this tonight." I stood at the doorway, pretending to ask casually.

The patrolman opened up another storage box and rummaged through it restlessly. "The teaching affairs department put out an emergency notice, stating that they got a report of a student keeping snacks in secret. That's why they ordered that all dormitories be searched. You think we wanted to do this at a time where we're supposed to be sleeping?"

Hearing this, Flora and I shared a quick look. If I wasn't mistaken, Lucy and the guy with her must have been the ones to report it.

The patrolman then saw a cloth bag similar to the one that was used to keep food and picked it up. Immediately, Flora snatched it away from him and said, "There's nothing in there. I already surrendered my rat jerky a few days ago!"

Seeing that he couldn't find anything suspicious, the patrolman sighed and left.

Once he was gone, Flora took out a bottle of milk and handed it to me. "Here, have a drink before you rest."

Milk was not part of the prohibited foods. I gladly took the bottle and stabbed in a straw. When I sucked in the liquid inside, my mouth was suddenly met with an explosion of bubbles and sweetness.
