"Hello, Ms. Gu. We'd like to ask you about the An'nan Road residential complex where you live. There was a break-in there recently, and you and your colleague were the ones who called the police, correct?"
"Yes, um, not exactly... It wasn't a break-in. There was nothing in the house. It was empty."
"How long have you lived in that complex?"
"About a year... I started at my company a year ago, and they arranged that place as a dormitory."
"During that year, did you never notice anything unusual in the opposite building?"
"No. I'm usually pretty busy, so I don't spend much time in my room, and I don't open the curtains very often... Um, it was my new colleague who discovered this, but she's already quit. You should ask her more about it. She was the one who noticed it first. She saw someone in the opposite building watching our apartment. Otherwise, I really wouldn't have known."
"Were you living there alone before?"
"I had two other colleagues with me. Two bedrooms and a living room, four people. It was a pretty good place. None of us noticed anything wrong before this."
"You lived there for a year. Did you hear anything about the place? As far as we know, this wasn't the first time someone had broken into that house."
"No. We're usually busy with work, and the neighbors in that old complex all know one another. We're outsiders, so it's not easy for us to fit in."
"One more question. Did you or your other colleagues ever see the person your colleague saw?"
"No. She probably wasn't lying, right? She had no reason to. Besides, when we went to look at the house afterward, it was clear someone had been inside."
"All right. Thank you for
