Come to your senses.
Yang Chen found that he was standing on an overpass that stretched across the highway. He immediately looked around.
This is a very prosperous international metropolis, surrounded by high-rise buildings, with the constant flow of traffic at your feet, the voices of nearby pedestrians, the honking of cars on the highway, the hum of engines, and the hustle and bustle of the city. Mixed together, filling the ears.
Judging from some information revealed by the billboards hanging on the building opposite and the road signs, this should be the capital city, more specifically, it should be the China World Trade Center!
Then he began to look at his belongings.
On his shoulder was a gray computer bag, which contained an HP laptop, a black wallet and several documents.
There was an ID card, a bank card and several hundred dollars in cash in the wallet.
There was also a Nikon digital camera hanging around his neck, and a Nokia N97 and a bunch of keys in his pocket.
Yang Chen turned on his phone and took a look. The current accurate time was 4:30 pm on October 27, 2011.
At the same time, a message came into his mind.
The system has arranged an identity for him.
His current identity is a graduate of the Photography Department of Southern Communication University - he can be regarded as the direct senior brother of Lin Luoxue and Li Shuci.
After graduation, he worked as an intern photographer at a private TV station under the OEC Group for about half a year. Later, he left the south due to an accident. Not long ago, he came to Beijing and started living in Beijing. Yesterday, he went to a magazine to interview interview.
Yang Chen had just finished digesting the information in his mind when the Nokia N97 in his hand suddenly rang a Canon ringtone.
There was no note on the call, it was a series of unfamiliar phone numbers.
After the phone was connected, a woman's voice came from inside.
"Hello, is this Mr. Yang Chen Yang?"
"Yes, it's me."
"I am the human resources officer of Manzi Time Magazine. I am now officially informing you that you have been admitted to our company. We have sent the relevant information to your mobile phone via text message. Please check it carefully. If you still don't understand anything, You can call me, or the editor-in-chief of the magazine, Sister Mai, the contact information is in the text message."
"OK, thanks."
"You're welcome, bye."
"goodbye!"
After hanging up the phone, Yang Chen opened the text message box and took a look. Sure enough, there was a text message he had just received.
The content of the text message was roughly to inform him that he had been accepted by the magazine and asked him to come to the magazine to join the job at about ten o'clock on Monday morning. It also contained the address of the magazine and the contact numbers of several people.
Today is Saturday, two days until Monday.
After reading the text message, Yang Chen suddenly heard the sirens of police cars, ambulances and fire engines.
He looked up and saw police cars, ambulances and fire trucks driving towards a building not far away. A figure was standing on the edge of the roof. It looked like he was about to jump off the building. A group of happy eaters gathered downstairs. Melon masses.
Yang Chen's heart moved and he walked towards the building. As soon as he arrived downstairs, he heard the voice of an aunt shouting through a loudspeaker.
"Girl, you have to calm down. Life is precious, and love... No, no, love is precious, and life is more valuable..."
It is human nature to watch the excitement.
Yang Chen squeezed into the crowd and looked up at the roof of the building.
This building is quite tall, probably about 12 or 3 floors.
From his position, he couldn't see the specific appearance of the person on the roof, but he could vaguely see that she was a young girl.
"Sister, what's going on?" Yang Chen asked an aunt in her fifties or sixties next to her.
"You still don't understand this, that girl wants to jump off the building!" said the aunt.
"Why?" Yang Chen asked.
"It seems that it was because her boyfriend broke up with her, and I couldn't think about it for a moment... Hey, you said that this little girl now, at such a young age, has nothing to do and must seek death and work." The aunt muttered.
Yang Chen guessed that the aunt didn't know the details. After thinking about it, he picked up the camera, turned on the telephoto lens, and looked towards the roof of the building.
Now I finally saw it clearly.
Standing on the edge of the roof was indeed a very young girl, probably in her mid-twenties, quite pretty, wearing a dark green coat and a pair of gray jeans, holding a mobile phone in her hand, as if I am talking on the phone.
"I'm sorry, give me a moment, give me a moment..."
At this time, three young guys hurried over and pushed their way into the crowd.
"Stop, why are you squeezing, why are you squeezing? You are so active in paying taxes, so why are you so excited when someone commits suicide..." the policeman standing on the cordon shouted at them.
"Comrade, that person is our friend." One of the young men wearing glasses pointed to the roof of the building and said with an anxious expression.
"Boyfriend?" the policeman asked.
"No." The guy with glasses shook his head.
"Her boyfriend is our friend, so isn't he a friend?" Another guy with slightly darker skin and a very strong look said.
"What about her boyfriend? It's such a cold day that a girl jumps off a building. Does she still have any sense of responsibility?" the policeman asked.
People in the capital are very poor, and even the policemen always talk in the same way. The three young men were so anxious that they couldn't help but want to break in.
"Stop, what do you want to do?" the policeman said.
"Comrade police, why are you always stopping us? We just want to help!" another fat guy said.
"What are you shouting for? You said you were his friend, so I knew you were his friend?" the policeman asked.
"Her name is Lin Xia, twenty-six years old. Right?"
"Female, unmarried."
"I live in Niujie, Nancheng!"
"Scorpio, blood type A."
"Working as an editor in a fashion magazine, focusing on emotions and horoscope divination!"
"Occasionally sing and perform at Shichahai Bar!"
The three guys were playing a game of idioms, each one saying something to the other, and in the blink of an eye all the girl's information was revealed.
"Okay, okay, that girl is very emotionally unstable right now. Send someone who is good at ideological work to go up there to comfort her. Which one of you will go?" A policeman who looked like a leader came over and said.
The three young guys looked at each other, and finally the guy wearing glasses said, "I'll go up, and you guys can call the madman."
"Okay." The other two people responded.
The young man wearing glasses immediately ran into the building.
Seeing this, Yang Chen already understood what was happening now, and even roughly guessed which world this was.
He was moved in his heart and asked the strong young man next to him: "Is this girl the editor of Manzi Magazine?"
"Yes, how do you know?" the strong young man replied.
"Do you know each other?" the little fat man also asked.
My guess was indeed correct. The system was sure whether it would assign me a job as a photographer for no reason.
It turned out that I was waiting here.
"I don't know you, but you will know me soon. I am a photographer for the magazine. I have just successfully applied for the job and have not officially joined the job yet." Yang Chen said to the two of them.
"Colleague! Hello, hello. My name is Shi Xiaomeng, and this is Fat Four. We are all friends of Lin Xia." The strong young man patted Yang Chen on the shoulder and pointed to the fat man next to him to introduce him.
"Yang Chen." Yang Chen simply introduced himself.
"Are you her colleague? Call your leader and ask him to come over quickly." The policeman next to him heard their conversation and said to Yang Chen.
"Comrade policeman, I haven't even joined the job yet, but I brought such exciting news to the leader and left such an impression. How can I still hang out in the company in the future? Besides, I haven't even joined the job. Even the boss How can you not know, let alone call?" Yang Chen immediately pushed it all away.
He would never do such a thankless job.
"Okay, okay, you guys hurry up and call her boyfriend and ask her boyfriend to come over quickly... Hey, you guys all retreat, and soon someone will fall down and splatter you with blood!"
The police waved at them and went to the side to maintain order.
Shi Xiaomeng immediately picked up the phone and started dialing. He called several times before getting through.
"Madman, where are you? Human life is at stake!"
"I'm talking about something."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Lin Xia is going to jump off the building and someone will die!"
"Who died? Let me tell you, she is still alive even after you are all dead. I tell you, women have the third trick. They cry, make trouble, and hang themselves. It's okay!"
"She really means it this time!"
"What is real or fake? Do you know her or do I know her? She is acting there!"
"She's about to jump!"
"Okay, you ask her to complete a turn and backflip plus 309B before jumping off the building!"
"Hey, hey..."
Shi Xiaomeng had just said a few words to the other party when a beeping sound came from the phone, "The madman has hung up!"
"If something happens to Lin Xia, I can't spare him!" Fei Si gritted his teeth.
"do not talk……"
Shi Xiaomeng winked at Fei Si.
The two looked at each other, and while the police were not around, they quickly jumped into the building.
Yang Chen looked upstairs, then picked up the camera and took a few pictures.
"Yes, at this level, being a photographer in a magazine is a bit humiliating!"
Looking through the photos he took, Yang Chen nodded secretly.
Although he has not taken formal courses in the photography department, his photography skills are much higher than those of ordinary photography graduates.
This is naturally due to my ability [God rewards those who work hard]. I usually take a few photos with my mobile phone when I have nothing to do, and my photography experience will increase rapidly.
What's more, he once worked as an accompanying photographer for a few days on an isolated island in the Java Sea. Naturally, his photography skills are not too bad, and he has barely reached the level of proficiency.
…
"boom!"
A few minutes later, a figure fell from the stairs and landed on the air bed that the firefighters had prepared.
The one who jumped down was not Lin Xia, but the guy with glasses who had just gone up.
The police and medical staff immediately swarmed over, lifted the bespectacled boy onto a stand, and pushed him into the ambulance.
The ambulance sped away with its emergency lights flashing.
"Okay, it's okay, it's all gone, it's gone..."
Seeing that there was no excitement to be seen, the melon-eating crowd dispersed one after another.
Yang Chen also left on his own, planning to visit the temporary residence arranged for him by the system.
The house the system rented to him is located in Yaojia Village outside the East Fourth Ring Road, not far from Chaoyang Park. It is an old-fashioned community that has been built for more than 20 years.
The house is not big, only fifty or sixty square meters, but although it is small, it is well-equipped with bedrooms, living rooms, kitchens, toilets and bathrooms. It is more than enough for one person to live in.
After Yang Chen saw it, he went to a nearby supermarket to buy some daily necessities, and the first day passed like this.
"Let's make do with it first!"
