Chapter 07 Chapter 7
Friday, September 20th, 3 p.m.
For the residents of Lijing Manor, this was supposed to be an ordinary workday. However, the videos that kept appearing on the screens of various units ruined the tranquility of the day.
"Damn, can you jump off a building like this?!"
“It shocked my whole family.”
"It's thirty stories high, that's nearly a hundred meters!"
In movies and TV dramas, that would be a hundred-meter abyss.
For modern people, whenever they encounter something special and surprising, their first reaction is definitely to take a picture of it and share it with colleagues, friends, and family.
Then it was posted on social media.
Therefore, when the video of the man leaping over the two buildings was sent to the community owners' group, the first reaction of others was not surprise, but confusion.
"What is this? Is this a video? Which video site is this from?"
"Skip?"
This reaction was naturally corrected by others: "No, this is our neighborhood! Look at the background."
The members of the unit group were surprised when they recognized the familiar floor plan and khaki walls.
"So what is this doing?"
"Look through the chat history."
After a while, the belated group member who was eating melons finished recording and learned the specific situation. He asked in confusion: "...Is this to save people?"
"Why do you jump like this to save someone?"
"Is this man a security guard? Is he wearing a seatbelt?"
"You're not pretending, are you filming a skit?"
Various comments were heard in the chat group. Although some people doubted whether there was some acting involved, most people were amazed at the boldness of the people in the video.
"The security guards were really attentive this time. It seems that we have always misjudged them."
It is rare for residents to give thumbs up to the property management and security of the community, however, the security guards are full of doubts.
Unlike other onlookers, they are the ones who are truly involved on the front line and are the group that knows the most specific details of the situation.
It would be fine if the door leading to the rooftop of Building No. 3 could not be opened, but who is this person?
If he wasn't their security guard, why would he be there?
Does he think he is Superman?
If something goes wrong, who can take responsibility?
The security guard and property manager in the basement were completely devastated at this moment, but they had to put on a calm face to deal with other people.
"Haha, of course we are very professional."
"Don't worry, we will definitely rescue him immediately."
On one hand, he was playing cozy with the property management committee and community officials, while on the other hand, he took out the intercom and gave orders fiercely:
"Hurry up and send a few more people to show me what's going on."
"And that kid who jumped off the building, catch him too."
Ning Su had no idea how much shock his small action had brought to other people in the community. In fact, even if he knew, he had no time to take care of everything at this moment.
After jumping to the rooftop of another platform, Ning Su finally observed the situation on the rooftop from close range.
At the same time, he also figured out what was going on.
The child hanging on the edge of the roof was only about four or five years old. Thanks to the guardrail on the edge of the roof, his two arms were stuck between the two guardrail pillars.
This is the primary reason why the other party did not fall.
In addition, although the child was affected by gravity, he did not fall down, which was also related to the brown-haired puppy who was holding on to the child's clothes tightly.
When Ning Su approached, the puppy seemed to realize something and stared at him blankly.
There seemed to be some surprise in his eyes.
Ning Su temporarily ignored the dog's strange behavior, reached out his hand, pried open the guardrail with his bare hands, and picked up the child.
The puppy woofed.
When Ning Su pried the guardrail apart with his bare hands, his round eyes widened to their maximum size.
At this moment, it seemed that because of Ning Su's arrival, some unknown obstacles that could be attributed to metaphysics disappeared.
The door between the rooftop and the corridor, which could not be opened no matter what, suddenly opened a little.
The security guards who had just let go of each other in the corridor and hugged each other tightly again screamed.
Ning Su heard the noise outside. He was silent for a moment, then silently took off his coat and put it on the ground.
Then he placed the child on his coat.
"elder brother."
He stopped crying ever since Ning Su "fell from the sky" and picked him up.
At this moment, the child's eyes were also bright and he stretched out his little hand towards Ning Su.
"good."
Because his behavior was indeed a little out of line, Ning Su had no intention of attracting attention and turning himself into a celebrity, thus causing unnecessary trouble.
So after he put the child on the ground, he left quickly.
At this time, only a few seconds had passed before the security guards mustered up the courage to push open the door.
Therefore, what the security guards who were trembling with fear due to the supernatural events saw was Ning Sufei's figure jumping between buildings.
"I am really possessed."
"There's something wrong with this world."
The security guards' three views were refreshed once again.
"Oh my god, who on earth is this?"
Since Ning Su retreated quickly and deliberately concealed his identity, the security guards picked up the child on the ground, picked up his coat, and could only sigh.
There was no other reason. The coat Ning Su used to pad the floor was just an ordinary piece of clothing.
Since it is a popular fashion, you can see it everywhere on the streets when you go out this fall, so we cannot simply judge the identity of this "kind-hearted person" by a piece of clothing.
"Isn't he really a character like Spider-Man or Superman?"
Do good things without leaving your name?
"Go away." The security manager slapped his subordinate and signaled him to get out.
The child was taken away, and although the twists and turns involved are unknown to outsiders, the final result was good, which made the security guards and property staff breathe a sigh of relief.
However, the child’s family was not found.
Fortunately, the property management was very resourceful in terms of contacting people. They frequently posted messages in various groups, and finally, when it was almost time to get off work, someone came to claim the child.
"Haohao, are you okay?"
The person who came was a white-collar worker, wearing a neat professional suit and high heels, which was out of place in the environment of this urban village resettlement community that collects rent and rents out houses.
"…Hello, ma'am?"
The woman reached out and touched the boy, and only breathed a sigh of relief after realizing that there was nothing wrong with him.
"Sorry, I was working and just saw the news." The woman named Yao Shuangyi explained her situation somewhat embarrassedly.
According to Yao Shuangyi herself, she works in a nearby high-tech industrial park and her children are left at home in the care of the elderly.
According to past practice, Yao Shuangyi would call home during the afternoon tea break. Generally speaking, the elderly people at home would answer the phone and let her see her son.
But who would have known that the call didn't go through today because she was busy with work and had a meeting to attend. She just left a message and went back to work.
But who would have known that after I finished my work and was about to get off work, I would accidentally hear the bad news.
The mother-in-law who is in charge of taking care of the children at home has burst into tears.
"Thank you all for saving Haohao."
The woman was very emotional, but still concerned about her dignity. She didn't know what the security guards' working rules were, but she still bought a lot of things to express her gratitude.
"Oh, you don't have to be so polite."
In fact, the security guards didn't spend much effort in this rescue, so they felt a little guilty to be thanked by others, so of course they would not accept any gifts at this time.
"Take the child back and comfort him." After verifying the information provided by the woman, the security manager relented and allowed someone to take the child back.
Yao Shuang was naturally grateful again.
Seeing the person being taken away, the matter was finally over. The members of the security department breathed a sigh of relief.
However, this matter was concluded in a muddled way, and some people were still curious and asked: "Boss, why don't you ask for more details?"
For example, the child is so young and has his grandmother to take care of him, so how could he go to the rooftop alone without saying a word?
Also, this woman is weird.
He looked quite respectable and obviously educated, so why did he look so dishevelled?
Of course, they didn’t mention the strange situation that the iron door on the roof couldn’t be opened—
Since no one dared to record the video at the time and there was no evidence, no one believed them even if they described the specific situations they encountered.
They even blamed them openly or secretly for being lazy.
"What do you want to ask? How do you ask?"
Every family has its own problems. Those who live in this community have had to deal with relocation in the past few years and received a large amount of demolition compensation, so the situation at home is even more complicated.
"But... this involves human life. Something almost happened."
"Isn't this okay?"
Seeing that his men were about to say something, the security manager sighed and said, "Don't you think that there is something wrong with that kid?"
What's the problem?
The others followed the leader's train of thought and were shocked to find that the child looked dull from beginning to end. When he saw them, he would just giggle and chew his fingers.
That's not what a kid of this age should look like at all.
"It was his grandmother who did it." While the security guards were discussing the situation of the child's family, the same topic was also going on at Ning Su's home.
"Haohao has been in poor health since he was born. As long as Haohao is around, his mother refuses to have another child."
The puppy sat very politely on the mat at the door of Ning Su's house and spoke in a rather gentle voice.
Not long ago, it followed Ning Su downstairs.
Ning Su originally wanted to pretend that he didn't see the puppy like everyone else, but then he remembered that he had just jumped between the floors like a monkey, so he gave up the idea.
But who knew that a moment of weakness would bring even greater shock.
Even though I knew this puppy was no ordinary dog, the fact that it could talk was still too shocking.
Of course, what’s even more shocking is that he wasn’t actually surprised, and instead had a nonchalant feeling that “the world is really broken”.
What's wrong with lying down?
"Wait a moment, let me take a picture." Ning Su picked up his phone, and in the puppy's surprised and even puzzled look, he came over to take a photo with the dog.
"?"
Ning Su was very confident about this.
He is also a modern man. When he meets a talking puppy, what's wrong with taking a photo as a souvenir?
