Chapter 137 Someone Is Going to Jump Off the Building
The elevator of the apartment dinged and stopped on the first floor. The door opened, and a well-dressed, personable, and outstanding young man came out of the elevator, and immediately became the focus of everyone's attention. . .
The women who called him the elevator with him were still behind, staring blankly at the man's tall and straight back, their cheeks were slightly flushed, and they even forgot to get out of the elevator, and they didn't react until the elevator door closed again... …
Walking from the elevator to the gate, there are always women on the road who are enthusiastic and bold, or shy and pay attention to him.
And this elegant young man smiled and nodded to them. His smile was like a little sun, making many women's cheeks turn red involuntarily.
When the young man walked to the door, he happened to meet the doorman of the apartment. He handed a newspaper to the young man courteously: "Mr. Gracie, your paper."
"Thanks."
Kate Gracie took the newspaper and put ten euros in the hands of the janitor.
The courteous smile on the gatekeeper's face became even wider.
"You go, Mr. Gracie. Watch out for the glass, watch out for the steps... Goodbye, Mr. Gracie."
In his gracious greeting, Kate Gracie walked out of the revolving door.
There were many discussions about him behind him.
"Mr. Gracie is so handsome!"
"I heard that he graduated from Harvard University in the United States..."
"I've been a big hit on Wall Street, and I just came back recently..."
"I'm rich and handsome. If only I had such a boyfriend. I would do anything..."
"Wake up, her girlfriend is in New York, she's so pretty! She's also a top student at Harvard University..."
"Hey, handsome. Young and promising... Is this the pride of heaven? No matter what you do, you can always make people jealous."
Kate Gracie, who walked out the door, still heard the discussions of those people. He smiled wryly and looked up at the blue sky of Madrid.
The proud son of heaven...?

When Chang Sheng finished training for the day,
When he returned to the apartment building where he lived, he found that there were many people outside the apartment building.
He didn't take it seriously at first, just as the fans who came to him for autographs and group photos.
He was used to this scene, and he could see these people every day when he came back from get off work.
It's just that there seem to be more fans today than in the past... no. It is much more.
Chang Sheng wondered if his influence was getting bigger and bigger?
But why did they see that they were not running towards them?
But collectively looking up at the sky...
Did they have a nosebleed?
And why are there so many police vehicles and fire engines?
This doesn't look like someone who came here to ask for an autograph...
The fire engine had searchlights on it, lifted it upwards, and shot towards the roof of the building.
Is there a fire in the apartment building?
But I didn't see the fire...
The scene was noisy. The police officers were downstairs to disperse the crowd, pulling the police cordon, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Everyone was looking up at the sky, so Chang Sheng also looked up at the sky, and then he was taken aback!
Under the shadow of the searchlight column. On the edge of the roof of the apartment building, there is a person standing! He was covering his eyes with his hands because the beam was too harsh.
Damn, jump off the building! ?
This was the first thought that popped into Chang Sheng's mind.
Someone has already seen Chang Sheng. It was the enthusiastic Aunt Maria, holding a package of things in her hand. Apparently, he had just returned from shopping in the supermarket, and when he saw Chang Sheng, he squeezed over: "Oh, Chang, you're back?"
"Aunt Maria, what's going on?" Chang Sheng asked, pointing to the roof.
"I don't know... It's just that someone is about to jump off the building, and the police and firefighters were alarmed..."
Chang Sheng looked at the crowd and found that the concierge, Lemon, was being questioned by the police: "He told me that he was planning to rent a house, so I took him to see... who would have thought that he would go straight to the roof of the building, Then he said he was going to jump off the building... I was terrified... I called the police..."
While looking around, Chang Sheng heard a familiar voice: "Chang!"
He looked back and found that it was Carlos Mediano of Getafe Local Life.
"Hey, are you all here?" Chang Sheng asked.
"We received a clue that someone was going to jump off the building, so we came to see what was going on." Mediano doesn't often go to the Alfonso Perez Stadium now. It is said that he has been promoted to the editor-in-chief, so he rarely runs news in person. up.
I didn't expect to be able to see him here this time, which shows that this is big news.
After all, Getafe is a small city. The news that happens every day in this city are basically trivial matters. Therefore, most of the local media in Getafe are not well-organized. news.
In addition to Mediano from "Getafe Local Life", Chang Sheng also saw several other media, and even a TV station came with a camera.
At this moment, someone in the police took out a loudspeaker and started yelling to the roof of the building.
"This gentleman! Please keep calm! If you have something to say, please don't get excited..."
Like the people around him, Chang Sheng looked up and found that the man on the top of the building didn't wave his arms excitedly, but just stood there, but the police's advice didn't have any effect, because he was still standing on the edge of danger , and did not mean to come down.
Seeing that it was useless to shout several times, the police had to put down the loudspeaker angrily, and then yelled at the people around him: "Damn it! Why haven't the negotiators come yet?!"
A small policeman replied hesitantly: "It is said that the car broke down halfway, and they are running towards this side..."
"Running?!" The policeman, who looked like he was the leader, widened his eyes when he heard this. "Are they going to cross the entire Iberian Peninsula?! That fat man would be panting and almost unable to breathe after running a hundred meters! By the time they ran over, this man would have been fucking smashed into a puddle of flesh! Oh no. Still There was a big pool of blood, splattered everywhere!"
The police were in charge of stabilizing the mood, while the firefighters over there were divided into two groups, all the way to the apartment building. Wait for the opportunity to catch him and prevent him from jumping directly. The other road has set up a life-saving net below. If the persuasion and arrest fail, and the other party insists on jumping off, as long as they fall on this life-saving net, there may be a chance of survival. If they are unlucky, they will fall. multiple fractures throughout the body. With luck, he was unscathed.
The apartment building where Chang Sheng lives is actually not high, it looks like a seven-story building.
But falling from the seventh floor, ordinary people are basically dead.
A night in Madrid at the end of November. It's getting colder.
A gust of wind blew, and Chang Sheng saw that the person on the roof shivered, as if he was frozen, and then his feet slipped, and he lost his center of gravity in an instant. It looks like it's about to fall!
There was a scream downstairs as if someone had pressed a button!
Everyone's heart was raised.
Fortunately, in the end, this person sat down on the edge, grabbed it with both hands, and did not fall off.
But everyone knew that that person might not last long.
The firefighters who went upstairs have also appeared on the other side. They are trying to get closer to each other. At this time, the man became excited, and he waved his arms. Shout something.
But the people downstairs couldn't hear it.
Although they can't hear it, they can see it.
The excited man changed positions. He simply stretched out his legs and sat on the edge of the roof directly facing the outside. This is a very dangerous action. With a slight movement of the buttocks, you can fall from above, leaving no time for everyone to react.

Chang Sheng has seen jumping off a building many times—not at the scene, but on the Internet and on TV news.
With the developed Internet in later generations, even if an otaku is bored at home, he can still know the major events in the world.
The eye-catching event of jumping from a building has also become the focus of media reports. Every time there is a jumping incident, the media can broadcast it live. Of course, the people watching the excitement downstairs also enjoyed it.
So Chang Sheng is quite experienced.
He could see that the person didn't seem to be completely determined to jump off the building, otherwise the other person wouldn't have stayed there for so long, and waited until the police and firemen arrived...
People who really think about it will only go to a remote and quiet place, and then end their lives silently.
Even if he wanted to jump off a building, he would go up to the top of the building, and then jump down directly while Lei Meng was not paying attention. This life would be considered to be on the cold concrete floor.
His hesitation shows that he doesn't really want to die.
He must not have made up his mind.
But as time goes by, his patience will be exhausted, and he will feel that life is hopeless, which will eventually make him grit his teeth and go to the end.
If there were any more booing from below, the person who jumped from the building would become more irritable and decisive.
Since you all want me to die, and the world has abandoned me, then I will die for you to see!
Then just jumped off...
Chang Sheng had seen such a thing before. Those who jumped from the building were still hesitating, and the onlookers below who watched the excitement and were not afraid of big things shouted: "Jump, let's jump! Our feet are numb, but you should jump!" Just jump off!"
Originally, the police and firefighters had persuaded the other party to retreat and not intend to commit suicide, but the group of onlookers booed aroused. Leaping off, fulfilling the talk of others, sacrificing one's own life...
It was on the news.
So Chang Sheng is very clear that the situation like this person is very dangerous.
Although I don't know if the Spanish onlookers will also watch the fun, it's not a big deal, but sitting on it all the time, even if no one provokes him, it is possible for him to be in a trance after not eating or drinking for so long, and his energy is exhausted. He fell headfirst.
A life just disappeared in front of him, Chang Sheng couldn't be indifferent, he was just an ordinary person, he was iron-blooded but not cold-blooded.
What's more, there is still room for this person to be saved. It can be seen from the fact that he was so stalemate and did not jump off.
Who would die if they didn't want to die?
The police over there are still complaining about the unreliability of the negotiators, but Chang Sheng has already made a decision.
He went straight to the police.
Aunt Maria next to her was a little surprised: "Chang..."
She didn't stop Chang Sheng.
Chang Sheng has already walked in front of the opponent.
"The negotiator didn't come, let me go up and try." He said.
The policeman was getting annoyed. Hearing what this man said, he waved his hand impatiently without even raising his head: "Go, go! This is a very professional job, and anyone can do it... "
"Then should we wait like this? When the professional comes, he might be dead by now!" Chang Sheng said, pointing to the roof of the building.
Hearing that the man was so determined, the police also raised his head to take a look, but he didn't expect that the expression on his face changed just as he raised his head.
"Oh? It's Chang!" The other party shouted in surprise.
This time it was Chang Sheng's turn to be stunned: "You know me?"
The other party even forgot what occasion it was, and laughed: "In Getafe, how many people don't know you, the head coach of Getafe, the hero of our Getafe fans, always wins."
Chang Sheng didn't expect his fame to be so great, he touched his nose a little embarrassedly.
However, the policeman remembered Chang Sheng's request. This time he unexpectedly did not refuse, but nodded: "If someone else came, I would definitely not agree, but for you, I am willing to let you try, anyway, we are now no solution anymore……"
"You trust me that much?" This time it was Chang Sheng's turn to be surprised. He was a little uncomfortable with the rapid change in the police's attitude.
The other party nodded seriously and said, "Since you can save a team's life when everyone is desperate, I believe you can also save a person's life. I'll let them take you up." Saying that, jǐng The policeman beckoned to the little policeman next to him: "Garcia, bring him up! Make sure he's safe!"
"Yes, sir!"
The little policeman Garcia saluted, and then signaled to Chang Sheng: "Come with me, Chang!"

Aunt Maria watched Chang Sheng enter the apartment building with the police, and murmured, "What is he doing?"
"Let's save people." Lemon, who had finished his inquiry, said standing next to Aunt Maria. "It's impossible to go up to see the scenery, right?"
"This is not funny at all, Lemon!" Aunt Maria glared at Lemon.
On the other hand, Lymon laughed awkwardly and said, "Hey, I just want to relieve the damn tense atmosphere a little bit..."
After finishing speaking, he and Aunt Maria looked up together, looking worriedly at the person sitting on the edge of the roof, waving his arms and saying something.
