Chapter 40: Witnessing a Tragedy
The Jiangwan Bridge across the moat is a bridge connecting the construction area of the Republic of China and the new urban area, and it is a very important traffic bridge.
I have to pass by the Jiangwan Bridge every day, this day I saw a girl standing on the Jiangwan Bridge, scared I immediately called the police for help, the girl was already sitting on the railing of the bridge, her feet dangling in the air, this must be going to be a stupid thing, the water patrol and firefighters arrived at the scene one after another, all watched the girl sit on the railing and shake.
"Hey, little girl, don't mess around, it's not fun." A middle-aged woman approached the girl who was sitting on the railing and kept guiding the girl to come back, because the woman also had a daughter of the same age at home, so she was sympathetic to persuade the girl who wanted to take her own life, and the others took pictures with mobile phones in their hands.
"You see, how many people are waiting for me below, I'm so happy." The girl hugged the pillar next to her with her right hand, pointed to the water with her left hand, the smile on her face was particularly bright, as if a star was holding a concert, she kept waving her hand under the bridge, she didn't have too many people who cared about her in real life, and now there were many people all of a sudden.
But there was nothing under the bridge, only a water surface, boats that had been constantly coming and going, the only person on the water who was watching the bridge, that is, me and the water patrol, the girl was obviously delirious, she had a lot of hallucinations in her brain, so she climbed the Jiangwan Bridge, a person hung in the air, the firefighters and the patrol did the work of grooming on the Jiangwan Bridge, but a group of people with mobile phones were filming, and they did not intend to push back a little.
The girl suddenly stood up, the soles of her feet on the surface of the railing, she kissed and winked at the crowd that did not exist on the water, she enjoyed the feeling of being noticed, and was even ready to jump down, her brain was completely controlled by a terrible force, cutting off all contact with reality.
"Hey, little girl, are you hungry, Auntie has the sandwich she just bought, do you want it?" The woman who had been in charge of the bridge just now was cooperating with the firefighters to continue to stabilize the girl who wanted to jump off the bridge, and she would directly drag the girl back as soon as she had the opportunity.
The woman took out a sandwich, put down the moped and bought the vegetables, and once again narrowed the distance between herself and the girl who jumped off the bridge, she cooperated with the firefighters, and has been looking for an opportunity to pull the girl back to a safe place, many video platforms have begun to push these videos from the Jiangwan Bridge suicide scene, many keyboard warriors began to direct firefighters and women to do things, even if they do not have any experience in negotiation and rescue, but with the blessing of the keyboard, it looks extraordinarily professional.
"Okay, you bring it to me to eat, my leg is numb." The girl regained some consciousness, and slowly changed from standing on the railing to sitting on the railing, the girl heard the voice of long-lost care, and began to fight against some powerful forces in her brain, she wanted to be cared for in real life, and the previous care was too fragile.
"Okay, you sit on it obediently, don't move, I'll give it to you." After seeing the girl's safer movements, the woman slowly approached the girl, and then took out a bottle of yogurt from the moped, these small snacks were for the children at home, and now they have become a prop to save people, and the woman continued to approach the girl.
The woman slowly tore open the package of sandwiches and yogurt, and then came to the girl's side, like feeding a three- or four-year-old child, holding the yogurt in her left hand and the sandwich in her right hand, and sending it to the girl's mouth little by little, the girl hugged the upright railing next to her with both arms, and she slowly ate this food from reality, which was what she wanted most, and was cared for.
"Little girl, what's your name?" The woman saw that she had stabilized the girl's emotions, and tried to use warmth to further persuade the girl to give up the idea of suicide, she didn't want to see such a girl die for no reason, so the woman has been looking for opportunities to do the best persuasion with the girl, and the love and action have been recognized by the girl.
"My name is Xinxin, I'm thirsty, give me something to drink." The girl was already a little sober, and directly snatched the box of rancidity, she gulped the yogurt and the residue in the straw, the girl was asking for the power in her brain a little bit, she wanted to return to this reality that had hurt herself countless times, because there was someone in front of her.
"Xinxin, good, we make dumplings at home today, do you want to go back with me to make dumplings?" The woman pointed to the moped leaning against the bridge, and then used the warmth of her family to advise Shin Shin to jump off the bridge, she knew that her care had been trusted by Shin Shin, her right hand had been placed on Shin Shin's hand, and the next step was to move her to a safe place.
Previously, Shin Shin showed strong rejection of the firefighters, and stood on the railing and yelled, knowing that she had let go of a hand and wanted to jump into the river, so the woman who had always cared about Shin Shin became the key, she was closer to Shin Shin who wanted to jump off the bridge than the firefighters, and she also wanted to rescue Shin Shin, so she continued to persuade people with dementia cards.
After that, Xinxin cried loudly and said all the grievances she had suffered during this time, but because there was still that kind of powerful interference in her head, none of what Xinxin said now could be coherent, and she could not explain the pain she had suffered, but the woman had been patiently listening to Xinxin and hugging her waist.
"It's okay, come home with me." The woman's hands were already around Shin Shin's waist, she was very well prepared, and the matter was over quickly, she hinted that the firefighters came to cooperate with her, and she was an intelligent woman.
The firefighter received a hint and wanted to approach the girl from the side, but Shin Shin couldn't hold her center of gravity, and one person slipped off the railing, and she broke free from the woman's hands around her, and one fell straight into the water.
Poof~, the splash appeared in front of my eyes, and when I reacted, Xinxin, who gave up jumping off the bridge, had completely sunk into the moat, she tried to struggle, but she couldn't swim and was physically exhausted, and was quickly swallowed by the river, disappearing in front of me and the water patrol, and the huge current also hid Xinxin.
By the time we found Shin Shin, she was already cold.
