Film and Television World Life Record

Li Mu said, "Jiwei, tell me about the situation you've sorted out."

Zhao Jiwei said, "The station has received a total of 32 cases of telecom fraud, and so far only two have been solved. The money that was defrauded has been transferred. As for the rest, we either can't track them down, or we do, but the people involved are abroad."

Li Mu then looked at Li Dawei: "Li Dawei, tell me your thoughts."

Li Dawei looked at the documents in his hand: "I think many of these cases have one thing in common: they're all scams using high interest rates. When it comes to using high interest rates to scam people, it's true that no one, young or old, north or south, is immune. If people weren't greedy, wouldn't they be less likely to be scammed?"

Li Mu said, "It's hard to say. In reality, how many people can resist temptation, and how many can distinguish between truth and falsehood? If you have any other thoughts, please share them."

Zhao Jiwei said, "I suggest we categorize the cases and solve the easier ones first."

Li Dawei curled his lip: "Which one is easy? Neither one is easy."

Just then, Sun Qiancheng rushed in and placed his phone directly in front of Li Mu: "Chief Li, 110 just transferred a call to the police. Someone called from abroad to report that someone might be planning to livestream a suicide in our jurisdiction."

"Suicide?" Li Mu was surprised and looked down at the photos of the girl on his phone. These were selfies, and it was clear that the girl was overweight and sitting on the edge of a building. Another photo showed the surrounding scenery, indicating that the building was very high.

Li Dawei craned his neck to look at the photo and asked curiously, "It says it's in our jurisdiction? How did he know that while he's abroad?"

Sun Qiancheng said, "He is in the US. He saw on Weibo that this girl said she wanted to commit suicide and even posted a selfie. Through private chat, he managed to get a few words out of her and figured she might be in our jurisdiction. He is currently chatting with her to buy time, hoping we can find her as soon as possible."

Li Mu nodded and said to Sun Qiancheng, "Post the photos in the group so everyone can recognize the location and see if we can find the girl's house. Sun Qiancheng, you can't let your guard down either; see if you can get the girl's phone number from them."

Sun Qiancheng nodded and said, "Okay, Director Li."

Li Mu then looked at Zhao Jiwei, Li Dawei, and Yang Shu.

“The matter is urgent, but the task force isn’t in such a rush. You should go find your mentors first. They are very knowledgeable and often patrol the area. See if they can help.”

"Yes, Chief Li!"

"Okay, Brother Li!"

A few minutes later, several police cars sped out of the police station.

Li Mu didn't try to steal the spotlight this time; in fact, he didn't even know where the girl jumped from. Although it was a plot point in the drama, who cared about that anymore?

However, the location where the girl jumped off the building is the same building where Chen Xincheng was punished for jumping off a building years ago.

This opportunity allowed Chen Xincheng to open up, which is quite commendable. Let's give him another chance.

……

On the other side, Chen Xincheng sat in the passenger seat, looking at the photos on his phone over and over again.

Li Dawei, driving, said, "Driver, you called the police without saying anything. Where are we going?"

Chen Xincheng said, "Xinxing Garden!"

Li Dawei asked in confusion, "Xinxing Garden? Why?"

These words seemed to unlock his memories, and past events flashed through his mind like a movie. Chen Xincheng rushed towards a girl sitting on the edge of the building and grabbed her hand tightly.

His wrist rubbed back and forth on the edge of the building, staining it red with blood, while the girl struggled desperately in his grasp.

Veins bulged on Chen Xincheng's forehead as he roared, "Live! You must live!"

The girl gave him only a look of despair, still struggling in his grasp. Finally, she managed to free her hand from his.

Chen Xincheng clung to the edge of the building, staring blankly down, when he heard a dull thud. He collapsed onto the edge, pounding his fist on the blood-stained surface.

……

Li Dawei called out, "Master! Are you alright?"

Chen Xincheng snapped out of his reverie, his eyes slightly moist.

"fine."

Li Dawei said, "Master, the station has just contacted the website and sent over the location of the girl's Weibo account. It has already been sent to the group. You guessed right, it really is Xinxing Garden."

Chen Xincheng took the phone, glanced at it, said nothing, and then took out the walkie-talkie and said, "Report from 38, report from 38, the suicide victim is between buildings 22 and 25 in Xinxing Community, probably on the 26th floor. Request the fire department to send out support immediately. We will provide a more accurate location as soon as possible."

"Master, how do you know all this in such detail?" Li Dawei asked疑惑地, then suddenly realized, "Master, is it because back then..."

Chen Xincheng said calmly, "Yes, back then, right here, in the same building. Do you see the TV tower next door? That's the coordinate."

Li Dawei quietly turned his head and glanced at it.

Chen Xincheng made a phone call to himself: "Hello, are you Manager Yuan from Xinxing Community? This is Chen Xincheng from Balihe Police Station. Please have Captain Wu, the security guard, bring more security guards, and also have a few more property management staff wait for me at your west gate. I'll be there soon."

After finishing the call, he said to Li Dawei, "Xinxing Community is an old community, so it's not easy for the fire department to get in. This girl's fate now mainly depends on the two of us."

Li Dawei was a little unsure: "Master, should we call the fire department?"

"We need to determine the facts of the case first before we can consider the next step," Chen Xincheng said, taking out his walkie-talkie again.

“This is 038. Please maintain close contact with the netizen who reported the incident. Since the suicidal person has already developed some initial trust in him, ask him to keep talking to the suicidal person to buy as much time as possible. We are already close to Xinxing Garden.”

A voice came through the walkie-talkie: "Understood, understood. Can you confirm the target is Emerging Garden?"

Chen Xincheng hesitated for a moment before saying, "Yes...we'll confirm as soon as possible."

The voice on the walkie-talkie said, "038, others are approaching you. Please be careful."

Chen Xincheng replied: "Understood, 038."

Xinxing Residential Area is an old community that is over 20 years old. It consists of several high-rise towers, and there are all kinds of businesses in the community, making it a very lively neighborhood.

A police car arrived, and the property manager and security captain were waiting for them with several other people.

Chen Xincheng and Li Dawei got out of the car and saw that everything in front of them was normal, as if no one had noticed that someone was about to commit suicide.

Li Dawei asked in a low voice, "Master, is someone really going to jump off the building?"

Chen Xincheng didn't say anything, but led him and his group towards the back of the residential area.

Walking to the front of a building behind, I looked up and saw a figure sitting on the edge of the building.

Li Dawei was startled: "My God, it's so high! What do we do?"

Without saying a word, Chen Xincheng led his men back the way they came: "Dawei, quickly report to the command center, explain the situation, and ask them to send the fire brigade over as soon as possible."

"Yes!" Li Dawei quickly went to the side to make a phone call.

Chen Xincheng pointed to the shops and vendors on both sides of the street and said to the property manager and security captain, "You should quickly clear the road leading here, evacuate the crowd, clean up the site, and drive away all the roadside vendors. The fire department will be here soon so they can carry out the rescue."

He had just finished making arrangements when Li Dawei returned: "The fire department has already set off."

Chen Xincheng glanced upstairs: "Let's go take a look first."

The two went up in the elevator, with Chen Xincheng leaning against the elevator wall in silence.

While scrolling through his phone, Li Dawei said, "Master, in just this short time, she posted three more Weibo posts, one each to her parents, her nephew, and her cat."

"Judging from her Weibo posts, she may have encountered a scammer. She told her nephew that when he grows up, he should never trust anyone again. She also said that the only thing in this world that has never deceived her is her cat."

Chen Xincheng did not respond and continued to keep his eyes closed.

Li Dawei looked at him worriedly: "Master, the station just said reinforcements are arriving soon. Should we wait? That girl looks unwell... what about us..."

Chen Xincheng frowned and said, "Stop talking."

The two arrived at the location quickly. The chubby girl, Wu Yu, was sitting quietly on the edge of the building, looking down at her phone.

Hearing the commotion behind her, Wu Yu turned around and immediately became alert: "Don't come any closer! If you come any closer, I'll jump right now!"

Chen Xincheng quickly raised his hands: "Girl, don't worry, we won't go over there. What happened? Can you tell us? Tell us, maybe we can help you."

Wu Yu shook her head sadly: "I can't help, no one can help. Don't bother me, I'm saying goodbye to this ugly world, I don't want to talk to you!"

Chen Xincheng said, "Okay, you go ahead with your work. But I'm reminding you, you can't jump now. There are elderly people and children downstairs. What if you jump and hit them? They're innocent too. You don't want to hurt anyone, do you?"

Wu Yu craned her neck to look down, her face grim. "So, he told you everything? How despicable. I thought I could trust someone before I left this world, but I've been deceived again!"

Li Dawei said, "You mean that American netizen who reported it? Girl, he called the police because he wanted to save you. Are you really going to interpret someone's good intentions as deception?"

Wu Yu's attitude was indifferent: "I'm not talking to you, I'm tired. Can't you let me enjoy some peace in my final moments?"

Chen Xincheng said, "Okay, as long as you promise me you won't jump until the crowd below is cleared out, that's fine. You go do your thing."

Wu Yu continued to sit there scrolling through her phone.

Chen Xincheng whispered, "Ask them again where the fire department is?"

Li Dawei went to the side to make a phone call. He returned quickly: "The fire department is on its way, it will take a few more minutes."

Chen Xincheng muttered under his breath, "This is such a waste of time."

Looking down from upstairs, police officers had already joined in to maintain order, and a cordon had been set up.

Li Dawei whispered, "Master, she seems quite calm. Is she alright?"

Chen Xincheng shook his head: "Not necessarily. Someone who is emotionally agitated might not jump for a while. But someone like her, who is very likely determined to die, could jump at any time."

Li Dawei said, "Master, the police tape has been put up downstairs. What if she...?"

Chen Xincheng stared at Wu Yu and sighed, "The police tape downstairs means that even if she jumps now, she won't hurt anyone. Sigh!"

Over there, Wu Yu posted her last Weibo message on her phone, then turned around and smiled at them: "Thank you, thank you for coming to keep me company. I was a little scared just now, but I'm not scared anymore."

After saying that, he tossed his phone away.

Li Dawei whispered, "Master! We can't wait any longer, should I go up?"

Chen Xincheng didn't speak, the past replaying in his mind again and again: his rushing up again and again, his wrists rubbing against the edge of the building, the girl breaking free from his grasp and falling down, and him clinging to the edge, screaming in despair.

Chen Xincheng took a deep breath and said to Wu Yu, "Girl, we saw your Weibo post. You've thought things through very well; you said goodbye to your parents, your nephew, and your cat. It seems you love them very much. But you didn't tell them why you chose this path. Have you thought about your parents?"
