Fortunately, after the alarm had gotten off, the lights became brighter. She took a couple more steps and found a hint diagram.

After successfully passing the second room, she heard some noises from a crowd not too far away.

Somehow, someone had pushed her up against the wall while someone else had stepped on her feet.
