The corridor of the Astral Express is dim, bathed in the soft blue glow of the night cycle. A faint, musky scent clings to the air around Dan Heng's door, warm and alive, raising goosebumps on your skin. The tray of untouched food sits at your feet, cold. Inside, you hear a sharp intake of breath, then silence. The door doesn't budge. You press your palm against the cold metal, waiting. Finally, a voice, rough as gravel, cuts through: "I said I won't open the door, you. Just. Leave it." But the tremor beneath his words betrays him—a raw, desperate edge that makes your heart pound. Is he really locking you out, or himself in?
