The design of the garden is very distinctive, and as a whole it can be seen as an extension of the balcony, but it is not enclosed. The garden platform encloses the balcony in an irregular semi-arc, and a carved steel balustrade about 1.5 meters high encircles the edge of the platform.

It may be for the sake of aesthetics and transparency, the vertical column under the railing has a wide spacing with the raw glass, which is a safety hazard. So if you look closely, many people have welded steel bars.

The widest part of the platform is two meters deep and the narrowest is half a meter, and the layout of the upper and lower platforms is completely reversed, ensuring that each unit can get enough light to the greatest extent. The open part of the garden is connected to the side door of the balcony, there is a flat walkway, the owner can walk to the garden from the balcony after dinner, look up at the scenery of the whole city, and look down to enjoy the flowers and plants, which is really pleasing to the eye.

"You also like green plants?" Hua Yun's voice came from behind her, and she took a bottle of fresh orange juice and handed it to Li Tianchou.

"The farmer still has some feelings for this. Li Tianchou was not polite, took the bottle and unscrewed it and drank it.

"I've worked hard for you in the past two days, it's still early, and I'm okay here for the time being, or you can go back to the dormitory to clean up and settle down first." Come over for dinner in the evening to celebrate my move to a new house. Hua Yun was very reluctant not to go, as soon as she asked her family to come to work, it was in constant danger, and she was busy with takeout and didn't rest all night.

Li Tianchou was about to respond, when suddenly there was a rattling sound from the oblique top, followed by a series of piercing exclamations, the two of them subconsciously looked up, and couldn't help but be surprised, there was a person hanging on the outside of the garden railing on the eighteenth floor of the next unit!

To be precise, most of the man's body was suspended in the air, and his feet were somehow stuck in the garden railing. Li Tianchou saw it clearly, this was an old man with gray hair, his head was shaking slightly, he couldn't see his expression, and he might have been unconscious. And a middle-aged woman in the balcony, covering her mouth with her hands and looking frightened, should be the one who screamed just now.

The middle-aged woman may have been frightened, standing motionless on the balcony, and her body could be seen still trembling slightly.

Through the railing, it can be roughly identified that a wheelchair is leaning on one side of the railing, facing the location where the old man fell from the building. It may be an accessory or rope in a wheelchair that is stuck in the old man's foot, but if it is not strong, or if the old man is moving, it will definitely not last long. And it is not clear about the physical condition of the elderly, if the foot has been broken, it is very dangerous.

What's worse is that the location of the old man's fall is the protruding part of the garden platform, and the corresponding downstairs garden is just recessed, which means that even if someone goes downstairs but responds, it can't reach the old man.

"Sister-in-law, don't panic, the old man is fine, but his foot is stuck. Is there anyone else at home?" Li Tianchou hurriedly shouted to the middle-aged woman.

The middle-aged woman shook her head.

"You calm down, first see what is stuck in the old man, it's better to fix it right away. Li Tianchou instructed the women, and at the same time turned his head and asked Hua Yun to call the police quickly. Hua Yun answered and hurriedly ran back to the room to get her phone.

The middle-aged woman nodded, but what made people anxious was that she couldn't move for a long time, probably because she was frightened and didn't come back to her senses.

"Sister-in-law, don't cover your mouth, try to take a deep breath, it's okay. Although Li Tianchou was anxious, he could only patiently persuade at the moment.

Xiao Pan also rushed out when he heard the sound, still carrying a mop in his hand, seeing such a dangerous scene, he was so frightened that he screamed loudly, and bluffed the middle-aged woman who had already taken a step on the spot. Li Tianchou turned his head and glared at Xiao Pan angrily, "What are you looking at the excitement? Hurry up and notify the security guards downstairs." ”

Xiao Pan didn't know why Li Tianchou suddenly got angry and felt aggrieved, but when he saw the other party's scary expression, he could only throw the mop and run back. At this time, Hua Yun had already called the police, and returned to the garden on the balcony, and could only watch dryly.

"Sister-in-law try again, no problem. Li Tianchou said encouragement, and Hua Yun was also beside him to help. The middle-aged woman finally took a trembling step, and although she was only a few steps away, she walked for a long time.

When the woman finally arrived at the garden railing, Li Tianchou couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law, can you see it clearly?

"It's rope, rope. ”

"What kind of rope is strong?"

"The strips of cloth are pinched, I pinch, and the old man is used. "The middle-aged woman's courage has finally strengthened a little.

But Li Tianchou was dizzy when he heard it, and he picked it up with a strip of cloth? How useful can this thing be, and he can't see where the other end is tied to, I'm afraid it won't last long. While thinking about it, Hua Yun next to the voice couldn't help but exclaim, the old man's arm was actually moving, and the shaking amplitude of his body began to increase.

The middle-aged woman also screamed, the old man's body suddenly fell, and the leaning wheelchair was suddenly pulled by the rope, and it hit the guardrail with a bang and stuck still. The old man fell more than half a meter before stopping. At this time, his feet had completely slid out of the railing, and his whole body was suspended in mid-air, and he was in danger of falling at any time.

"Sister-in-law, don't move, now go to the door and open the door for me. After Li Tianchou finished speaking, he turned his head and ran.

"Hey......" Hua Yun also wanted to follow, but Li Tianchou moved quickly and had already run into the room.

"You're watching where you are. Li Tianchou's voice came from the room.

The elevator in the building was very useful, and Li Tianchou only took half a minute to reach the first floor, but he was dumbfounded when facing the door of the next unit, and he couldn't get in without a door card. In desperation, he began to shout and bang on the door at the top of his voice, but no one answered.

Li Tianchou was about to slam the gate when three security guards arrived in a hurry.

Li Tianchou didn't explain much, but the security guards opened the electronic door without saying a word, it seems that they may have received a report from Xiao Pan, and fortunately he told Xiao Pan to go downstairs to find someone, otherwise it would be a lot of effort. The four of them rushed into the corridor together without much communication.

The middle-aged woman was already waiting at the door early, "What's the matter?" Li Tianchou asked anxiously as soon as they met.

"Ahh ”

Without the slightest delay, Li Tianchou rushed into the room and went straight to the balcony. At the edge of the garden, he saw that the so-called rope made of strips of cloth was actually the thickness of a thumb, and there were two of them, one for the old man's two ankles, and the other end tied to a metal rod directly under the wheelchair.

It seemed that the old man had fallen a little further distance, and one of the ropes below had been worn off by the concrete edge of the platform, and the other was wrapped around the railing and the wheelchair indiscriminately, very tight. Li Tianchou understands that the two ropes bear the weight of the old man together, and as long as one of them is broken, it will be over.

The most terrible thing is that the two ropes are shaking, Li Tianchou rushed over without thinking about it, leaned over and grabbed the rope below, but the wheelchair was a big obstacle, and there was no way to squat and exert force. At this time, the three security guards also ran to the balcony and stood behind him in unison, stunned by the scene in front of them.

"Do you see the old man is awake?" Li Tianchou shouted at Hua Yun below the side.

"I seem to be a little sane. ”

"You tell him not to move, not to panic. Li Tianchou observed left and right, feeling a little troublesome, pulling the rope up with both hands and inevitably rubbing against the cement ridge below, which was very dangerous. But with both hands stretched out of the railing, it was not enough. He turned to the three security guards and shouted, "You guys come here and help me drag it." ”

Hearing this, a strong security guard quickly ran over, squatted and grabbed the rope, while Li Tianchou simply lay on the ground and reached out to grope under the railing, "How are you now?"

"He couldn't hear what I said, I just tried. Hua Yun responded.

"Keep talking, get his attention. I tried to pull it up. Li Tianchou was very anxious, suddenly thought of what he had missed, and couldn't help but secretly scold himself for being stupid, he immediately turned his head and shouted at the other two security guards, "You two hurry up, go down one more floor, and go to the balcony on the sixteenth floor, so that it is safer." ”

When the two security guards heard this, they woke up like a dream, and hurriedly turned their heads and ran out.

"Ah...... Ahh

"What's wrong?" Li Tianchou was taken aback, his vision was blocked by the railing, and he couldn't see the situation below.

"Rope, the rope is about to break......" Hua Yun's tone of voice changed nervously.

"What location?"

"Below, below......" Hua Yun was so anxious that she didn't know how to express it.

"Calm down! How far is it? ”

"It's about twenty centimeters from the platform. ”

Li Tianchou gasped, the part Hua Yun was pointing at was a little far away from the garden platform, even if he was lying on the platform, he couldn't reach it, he immediately turned his head and shouted at the woman who was in a daze, "Sister-in-law, find a rope quickly, the sheets are fine, quickly!"

Li Tianchou told the security guard beside him again, "Hold on, I'll let go first." Li Tianchou had already stood up as he spoke, he took a deep breath, grabbed the railing with both hands, and flipped out of the balcony with a sharp kick.

This move scared Hua Yun and Xiao Pan behind her stupidly, and the two of them covered their mouths with their hands almost at the same time, so that they didn't shout. But there were different exclamations all around, because many neighbors who heard the noise opened their windows or ran to the balcony to look this way.

At the same time, the sound of police cars and fire trucks could be heard in the distance. But Li Tianchou, who was outside the balcony, didn't have time to care about so much, so he just loudly urged the middle-aged woman to twist the rope with the bed sheet.

Li Tianchou looked down, this kind of rope with strips of cloth was extremely elastic, but it was not firm. The weight of the old man dragged the rope to the old length, and the rope was forced to change from thick to thin, and the thinnest part was not much different from chopsticks.

For some reason, the old man seemed to be struggling hard, but he didn't have the strength, so the amplitude of the body shaking was not large, even so, it was thrilling, it could be said that it was already a moment, and he could break the rope and fall downstairs at any time.

At this time, the two security guards ran back out of breath, "I smashed the door for a long time, and there seems to be no one downstairs." ”

"I'm grass!" Li Tianchou scolded, "Hurry up and help my sister-in-law twist the rope." ”

At this time, a large number of people gathered downstairs to watch the excitement, looking down from above, the crowd was like ants, a pile in the east and a lump in the west.

With the help of two security guards, the two large sheets were quickly twisted into thick ropes and knotted together, and the three of them ran over in a panic dragging the thick ropes.

"One end is tied to the railing, and the other end is tied with a slipknot on me. Li Tianchou commanded loudly.
