"Alert!" The cafeteria door was pushed open, and Sun Aimin, who was on duty at the front desk, shouted at the door: "Someone is about to jump from the building at Chaoyang Mansion. Notify Wang, and he will be down soon."
"Let's go first," Feng Bao stood up immediately. Bai Song didn't even bother to wash the dishes and followed Feng Bao out of the cafeteria.
Bai Song had just gone out when Sun Tang and Ma Xi followed him out.
Well, don’t eat yet.
At this time, Chief Xiao Wang also walked out of the office building, bringing with him three auxiliary police officers including Sanmi. A team of eight people, including two police cars, rushed out with flashing lights and sirens.
Except for Bai Song and Feng Bao, the other six people had not eaten lunch yet, so they had no time to care about it at this time. The two cars quickly rushed to their destination.
Chaoyang Mansion and Aihe Garden are the best residential areas under the jurisdiction of Jiuheqiao Police Station. Aihe Garden is more secluded and has a better environment, while Chaoyang Mansion is in a better location. A subway station is being built at the doorstep, and the community is a high-rise building with elevators. It has only been built for two years, so the living conditions of the families living here should be pretty good.
After receiving the call, a woman was found sitting in the corridor window on the 11th floor of Building 7 in the community. The person who called the police was from the building opposite.
Behind Chaoyang Mansion is the bungalow that Bai Song went to in the morning that was to be demolished, and next to it is Daguangli.
When the two police cars arrived, the fire truck had just arrived. The armed police firefighters and the police ran to the downstairs of Building 7 together.
Looking up, I saw that among all the windows at the staircase, only the window on the 11th floor was open. A young woman was sitting by the window with her legs hanging outside.
"Captain Wang," an armed police officer from the fire department saw Wang Pei and came over to shake hands with him.
"Captain Li." Wang Pei shook his hand. "We'll first set up a cordon and disperse the onlookers, then send two people up with you."
"Okay!" Captain Li nodded briefly and immediately ran away with his team.
Three fire trucks arrived. Five or six armed police soldiers pulled out a huge inflatable air cushion on one of the trucks. They quickly pulled it to the location designated by Captain Li and began to install it.
Fortunately, there were not many people in this community, and outsiders were not allowed to enter the community at will, so there were not many onlookers. Wang quickly directed everyone to set up a cordon and advised the onlookers nearby not to get too close or shout loudly.
"Lao Sun, you take charge downstairs. I will take Baisong and Sanmi upstairs." Wang looked around, pointed at Baisong and Sanmi, then turned around and went upstairs.
Sun Tang began to arrange the work downstairs, and the three of them quickly ran to the elevator entrance.
Captain Li and his team had already gone up. The three of them waited for half a minute before the elevator arrived, and then they quickly reached the 11th floor.
"Don't come over here, let me be alone here!" As soon as I got off the elevator, I heard a young woman's voice.
"We're not going over there, you need to stay calm!" Captain Li said in a low voice and looked at his watch.
The large air cushion needs five or six firefighters to install. If the girl jumps before it is installed, she will definitely die. Of course, in reality, with this air cushion, it is basically a life-or-death situation. Normally, the height of the firefighting air cushion shall not exceed 16 meters, and it must be used when there is no alternative, because sometimes after the air cushion is installed, it may induce the jumper to jump down.
At this time, the height of the 11-story corridor had reached 30 meters, but Captain Li had asked for instructions before he came, and the air cushion still had to be put up. Whether it would work or not depended on fate.
"What's the situation now?" asked Captain Wang and Captain Li.
"It's a young girl. She's in a very dangerous position. If we touch her, she'll fall. Our comrades can't get close to her. The automatic noose can't be used either."
"Excuse me, do you see anyone else nearby?"
"No."
"Thank you for your hard work, Captain Li. I'll go over to take a look." Wang Pei walked past several firefighters.
The house has two elevators and four households, with two independent staircases. The woman is on the right side of the elevator. The corridor is zigzag-shaped. The woman is in the middle of the corridor, sitting on the open window.
This is indeed troublesome. You can't get close to it, either from the top or the bottom. There is a wall behind you. If you rush over, the woman might get frightened and fall down, which would be troublesome.
"Well, I'll go and try to chat for a while." Wang Pei withdrew from the corridor and communicated with Captain Li first, "This is the top floor. If it doesn't work, we have to think of a solution from above."
"Well, we've thought about it and have asked someone to get the key to the top floor. The noise from the demolition is too loud, so we still have to use the key. I'll arrange for a comrade to try to get down from above." Captain Li glanced at Bai Song and said, "This guy is quite strong. He'll go up and help pull a rope. Is that okay?"
Wang Suo glanced at Bai Song and said, "No problem."
As they were talking, a firefighter got on the elevator and brought the key to the top floor. A total of five firefighters and Bai Song went up to the rooftop together.
The wind on the rooftop was very strong, making a whistling sound. The people who came up with Bai Song were the deputy squadron leader, whose surname was Ping, and four other young recruits, all of whom were two or three years younger than Bai Song.
"I'll go down in a while." Team Ping looked at the structure of the rooftop. It was very empty, and there was no place to tie the rope. After searching for a long time, they found that only the equipment in the elevator was very solid, but it was a bit far from the rooftop.
Generally, two ropes are needed for rappelling, one load-bearing rope and one safety rope. However, for safety reasons, an extra safety rope is also acceptable, especially if the woman sees the firefighter about to jump and the firefighter grabs the woman, the force is still relatively large. Of course, the firefighter's ropes can't be pulled by a ton of force.
"Captain Ping, let me go down." A young firefighter stepped forward, grabbed the rope and put it around himself.
"I'm light, I'll go down."
"I'll go down. None of you are more flexible than me."
…
The four firefighters were about to step forward to replace Team Ping, but Team Ping glared at them and said, "Keep your voice down. I'm going down, and you guys hold the rope for me."
After that, Team Ping said very calmly: "This is an order."
The four firefighters immediately wilted and quickly began to help the team install the rappelling rope.
A safety rope was calculated at a certain distance, tied to the structural column of the elevator and the flat team. The structural column would not change even if it could withstand several tons of force. Two thin firefighters were responsible for the safety rope, which could also provide some strength. The remaining Bai Song and two other firefighters used a set of pulleys to be responsible for the load-bearing rope.
If time permits, it is actually not that troublesome and does not require so many people. With a tree or a suitable fulcrum and the necessary equipment installed, it is no problem for the team to rappel by themselves. However, in this situation, it is still faster to rely directly on manpower.
