Campus memory

The alarm bell is ringing.

Let's go back ten years, when I was in high school. It was a suburban school, and even in the daytime it was a little creepy. I had heard rumors about the school, but I had never paid much attention to it until that night.

After spending a night studying in the school library, my friends and I were going out for a picnic. We spent a long time preparing and packed some popcorn, drinks and sweets for a pleasant evening in the school garden.

We pushed open the library door, crossed the lawn, and reached a corner of the school. I don't know why, but I feel something strange. In the middle of the garden was a high bell tower, on which hung a big clock. As we approached the clock tower, I remembered the stories I had heard about it. I couldn't help asking my friends, "Have you heard the legend about this clock tower?" They shook their heads, and then I told them that the clock tower was a very old structure, and legend has it that people committed suicide there. I have also heard that this bell tower is a haunted place, often hear the bell.

We all felt a little afraid, especially when the big clock began to ring. The sound of the clock was loud, but creepy. As the bell sounded, our hearts began to beat faster. I glanced at my watch. It was eleven o 'clock at night. We should go back.

We walked back to the teaching building in a hurry, but when we got there, we found the gate was locked. This scared us, because we were so far from home, how could we possibly spend a whole night on campus? So we decided to go back to the clock tower and find school administrators to help us. When we got back to the bell tower, the bell stopped ringing, which made us very uneasy.

We went downstairs and knocked on the bell tower door, but there was no answer. We kept knocking on the door, but there was no answer. I don't know why, but I felt something strange, like something was looking at us. I looked at the top of the bell tower and saw a dark figure. It kept shaking, as if waving at us.

My friends also saw the shadow and began to get scared. We decided to go downstairs, and then all the way to the school gate.

When we came out of the bell tower, we found the whole school in complete darkness. We walked through the school and found a security guard who was working the night shift. He told us that the power had been turned off throughout the school and that the cell phone signal had been blocked.

We were forced to spend the night in the school until it began to get light. The next morning, we heard the terrible news that one of the students in the bell tower had gone missing the night before, having failed to return home when he left class the night before.

The incident caused a sensation, and everyone began to talk about the terrible rumors about the school. And me, I'll never forget that night of fear at school.

The lesson of this story is that we should always be vigilant and not believe any rumors. We should also keep calm in the face of unknown situations, especially in the face of danger, we should seek help in time instead of taking risks ourselves. At the same time, the story also reminds us to pay attention to safety and not to go to the strange environment easily. Schools are one of our most important places and we must always be vigilant to prevent such tragedies from happening again.
