--I think Miss Gao must be in the library. She said she would go there.
--No. She can’t be there. I have just been there.

I’d like to know whether “I have just been there” makes sense in the context. What about this sentence?

I just came back from there.

This is the question. I have no question with the anwer but the last sentence.

This is a test for 8th graders in China and their English teacher set the test.

No, this is just a test paper which one of my students showed to me. I'm not his school teacher and I help him during his free time.
