Escape

"Tap, tap", the room's heavy door was knocked twice softly, and as usual, another tray of food slid in through the crack under the door.

However, the room was deathly silent. There was no response.

The person outside the door waited for a while, not seeing the tray being pulled away, hesitated for a moment, and then walked away, seemingly to go out for a smoke.

Half an hour later, the person paced back, reached in through the crack under the door and felt around - the tray was still there, and the food inside hadn't been touched.

"Bang, bang, bang!" The person outside the door knocked on the door forcefully and shouted:

"Hurry up and eat, stop dawdling! It's time to collect the trays."

There was no response.

The person outside the door became even more irritable, knocking on the door like a drum, causing the whole room to vibrate.

Really couldn't wait for a response, the man put away the tray and left.
