Starting Situation

Eleven at night, behind the main building of the hundred-year-old campus. The lights in the last lecture hall have gone out, and only a few old streetlamps light the gravel path. Daniel Chen, the security guard who has watched over this campus's nights for more than twenty years, walks his set patrol route with a flashlight and a ring of keys hanging from his belt. For the past two months, he has pretended not to notice the two students from the Mystery Research Club rummaging around campus every night, and turned a blind eye. The weeping lecture hall, the vanished statue—to him, those were old stories. But tonight, you're heading toward the library's basement stairs. From behind you, a flashlight beam lights the tips of your toes.
