1724, peak crisis

No. 128, Rainbow Road.

It is an ordinary old building with a children's products store on the first floor, but there are rental houses on the second floor, and most of the residents are migrant workers.

Gu Chen, along with Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha, knocked on the door almost one by one and called out the residents living upstairs one by one for questioning.

But the migrant workers here are quite interesting, and there is almost no communication between neighbors.

Since the working hours of residents here are not fixed, some work day shift, some work night shift, and some alternate day shift and night shift.

Therefore, the number of encounters is also very few.

In addition, many residents choose short-term rentals, which is to change their homes for a while.

Living here is both cheap and expedient. Many people rent here temporarily for a month or two, and then choose to move out after finding a suitable job.

The flexible rent collection method of one-deposit and one-pay also allows residents here to change frequently.

Therefore, people are not as familiar with each other as they seem. Even if you just remember the face of the resident who lives across the street one day, it will be replaced by another stranger's face the next day.

After several inquiries by Gu Chen, no one knew Zhao Bo in the photo.

Even when Gu Chen asked all the residents in the building one by one, he could not find any trace of Zhao Bo, which made Gu Chen couldn't help but become suspicious.

"Is the address Zhao Bo provided to the Jiangnan Marriage and Marriage website fake?" Gu Chen crossed his arms and leaned against the corridor on the fifth floor, thinking.

Lu Weiwei also said angrily: "It must be fake. All the residents here moved here a few months ago, and only one family moved here three days ago. No one knows this Zhao Bo, but Zhao Bo

Why did Bo fill in his address here?"

"Could it be another No. 128 Rainbow Road?" Officer Wang raised another possibility.

But after Yuan Shasha checked it on her mobile phone, she retorted decisively: "Brother Wang, there is only one Rainbow Road in Jiangnan City. There is no mistake. It should be here."

"That's strange." Officer Wang scratched the back of his head, walked back and forth between the corridors, and said angrily: "This house has a total of five floors. We went from the second floor to the fifth floor. We asked all the residents and found no one.

Get to know this Zhao Bo."

"Tuk! Tuk! Tuk..."

Just when everyone was talking, there was suddenly a sound of footsteps going up the stairs in the corridor.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, directly interrupting everyone's speech.

It seemed that the other party also realized that the noisy movement just now suddenly stopped, so the movement up the stairs also stopped abruptly.

Gu Chen and others stared at the corridor, expecting that person to appear soon.

The people below the corridor seemed to be a little scared and had been stagnant.

"Who is this?" After waiting for a long time but there was no movement, Officer Wang couldn't help but complain.

After hearing Officer Wang's movements, the man's footsteps made some subtle strange noises.

But Gu Chen, who has master-level observation skills, still heard some timidity in his footsteps.

I saw a middle-aged woman, cautiously sticking out half of her head, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw four policemen standing in the corridor.

Lu Weiwei quickly asked: "Who are you? What are you doing hiding there?"

"I...I am a resident of 502." The middle-aged woman said weakly, then walked to the steps and looked at a few people.

"502?" Officer Wang glanced at the 502 he had just asked about, then looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him, and asked: "The man in the room just now, is your husband?"

"Yes, he works the night shift, so he sleeps at home during the day."

As the middle-aged woman spoke, she slowly carried the food basket and came to the crowd.

When the policeman stopped asking questions and just looked at her blankly, the woman took out her keys but did not dare to open the door.

All these unusual behaviors made everyone a little curious.

"Why don't you open the door?" Lu Weiwei said.

"Oh." The middle-aged woman responded, and while taking out the key, she stopped moving, turned to look at Gu Chen and the others, and asked weakly: "Police...Comrade police, are you...are you my man?"

Did something happen?"

"That's not true." Gu Chen shook his head.

"Then...then why are you standing in front of my house?" The woman was also uneasy and asked again.

Yuan Shasha saw that the middle-aged woman might have misunderstood, so she tried to explain the reason: "That's it, we are looking for this person."

While talking, Yuan Shasha took out Zhao Bo's picture from the photo album of her mobile phone, showed it in front of the middle-aged woman and said: "He is an employee of a dating website company, and his residential address is written here, but we have searched all the residents' rooms.

No one knows him, do you know him?"

"He?" When the woman saw Zhao Bo's photo, she immediately said, "I've seen him, but I don't know him."

"Have you seen it?" Gu Chen, who was looking elsewhere before, turned his head directly after hearing the woman's reply and said with a surprised look on his face:

"In other words, this man named Zhao Bo does live in this building?"

"Yes." The middle-aged woman continued to nod.

"Impossible." Lu Weiwei shook her head and said with a suspicious look on her face: "We just asked all the residents here, including your husband, and they all said they had never seen this person, or had no impression of him, but

How could he live here?"

"Yes." Yuan Shasha also felt incredible and directly confirmed: "All the residents here say they don't know him, so why do you still say he lives here?"

Everyone’s questions are not unreasonable.

After all, Zhao Bo lives in this building, but the residents in this building all deny it, and the residents here do not rent the same house, so the middle-aged woman's answer makes everyone a little suspicious.

"Harm!" Seeing that everyone was confused about the situation, the middle-aged woman pointed in the direction of the roof and said, "Then have you ever gone to the roof to take a look?"

"Roof? You mean the rooftop?" Gu Chen asked.

"Yes, I couldn't believe it at the time. Someone often came down from the rooftop. I met him a few times."

"Later, I met him again on the corridor one time. I saw him carrying many steamed buns to the roof. I couldn't help it, so I asked him if he lived on the roof? He said yes."

"Out of curiosity, I climbed up to take a look, and found that there was a bed in the attic on the rooftop to hide from the rain, and the young man had been living there."

"Can people live here?" Lu Weiwei couldn't believe it, but she still glanced at the top of the building and then quickly climbed up the stairs.

Seeing this, other people also followed behind.

The middle-aged woman was afraid that the police would not believe her, so she chose to follow him.

The group of people arrived at the attic exit of the rooftop.

The stair railing ends here, and an iron door is closed but not locked.

And just on one side of the iron gate is a straw mat rolled up with a quilt.

There are also several instant noodle cartons lying around, containing some simple daily necessities and some food waste packed in plastic bags.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned on the spot.

No one would have thought that Zhao Bo would live in such a place?

You know, the height of the attic leading to the rooftop is very low.

Everyone had to bend their backs to barely stand on the attic.

Visually, the door height is only one and a half meters.

But in this kind of environment, Zhao Bo was able to live there, and none of the residents in the building had seen him, which made Gu Chen curious.

"How did this guy do it?" Gu Chen turned his head and glanced at the middle-aged woman. He also walked down a few steps to stand up straight and asked:

"How long has he lived here?"

"Hmm... I'm not sure, but it feels like more than a month." The middle-aged woman said.

"More than a month? Does it mean that no one in your building knows about his existence except you?" Gu Chen asked again.

The woman shook her head and confirmed, "I know, not even my husband knows."

"Because I didn't know who he was at the time. I felt that if he was a bad guy, it would be troublesome, so I was particularly vigilant."

"But later I found out that his three meals a day consisted of old noodle steamed buns and some chili sauce, so I felt quite sympathetic."

"And in order for me to keep his secret, he even showed me his college diploma and told me that he was a fresh graduate and had graduated less than a year ago."

"Because I came here to look for work before, but I never made much money. Then due to some reasons, I lost several jobs. Now I don't have much money in my pocket, so I can only live here."

"So miserable?" Listening to the middle-aged woman's explanation, Lu Weiwei couldn't believe it.

A college graduate would actually end up living in a rooftop loft in an old building like this.

Although it can be protected from wind and rain, the iron door has a large gap, and when there is a strong wind, you can still feel the roar of the wind.

Coupled with the continuous cooling during this period, it is really difficult for everyone to imagine how he survived these days, or in other words, the days after graduating from college?

"Isn't that true?" Officer Wang thought for a long time and couldn't figure out why Zhao Bo ended up like this? He also said angrily:

"No matter how incompetent he is, he can't afford to rent a decent house, right? He still eats that... Laomian steamed buns every day, right?"

"Yes." Seeing Officer Wang looking at her, the middle-aged woman confirmed, "I also asked him why he eats steamed buns every day? He said he has no money now and can't pay the rent."

"And now I have changed jobs several times, but I can't save any money. Anyway, I feel miserable."

"I think he is pitiful, and I often give him some food."

"Then why has he lived here for more than a month and no one has seen him? How did he do it?" Yuan Shasha was also very curious.

After all, this person comes and goes, so the probability of encountering him is quite high.

Although the middle-aged woman is said to be keeping his secrets, it doesn't necessarily mean that no one has seen him.

Seeing Yuan Shasha's question, the middle-aged woman continued to explain: "I also asked him if anyone else had discovered that he lived here? He said no."

"In order to avoid being discovered and chased away by others, he usually goes out before dawn and returns home late at night."

"And we were careful going up and down the stairs without making any noise, so no one noticed that there were people living in the attic on the rooftop."

"And to prevent my husband from spilling the beans, I didn't even tell him that he lived in the attic."

After hearing what the middle-aged woman said, Gu Chen also nodded silently, feeling that it was interesting.

So he asked the woman again: "In other words, in this unit, no one else knows that Zhao Bo lives here, right?"

"That's right, no one knows except me," the middle-aged woman said.

"Okay." Gu Chen crossed his arms and thought for a few seconds before saying again:

"But he is going to commit suicide now. Do you know where he might appear?"

"Suicide...?" After hearing Gu Chen's words, the middle-aged woman was stunned: "He, he... why did he commit suicide? He..."

As she finished speaking, the middle-aged woman thought of this poor living environment and the downtrodden Zhao Bo. It seemed that such a life was indeed quite depressing.

So the middle-aged woman asked again: "Is it because life has been unsatisfactory that I have the idea of ​​​​suicide?"

Lu Weiwei chose to nod and admit, but also explained: "To tell you the truth, something happened to the company that Zhao Bo worked for. It was investigated by the Industry and Commerce and Taxation Bureau, and it is probably corrupt."

"So, he is unemployed again?" The middle-aged woman also expressed emotion.

The reason why I added the word "and" is because the middle-aged woman knew very well that Zhao Bo had changed several jobs before this, and none of them seemed to be satisfactory.

Therefore, for Zhao Bo, unemployment is almost all kinds of psychological and physical destruction to him.

Perhaps, he was about to be overwhelmed by the pressure and could no longer hold on.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What should we do? I don't know what his situation is now?" Listening to Zhao Bo's current situation, the middle-aged woman suddenly began to become anxious.

.

Gu Chen didn't think much and started rummaging around where Zhao Bo slept.

Unfortunately, almost no clues can be found.

So Gu Chen opened the rooftop door again and led everyone directly onto the rooftop.

There are many flowers and plants planted here, the old insulation layer and many insulation boards are in a damaged state.

Gu Chen started searching along the edge of the rooftop.

It feels like this guy should be nearby.

As for saying goodbye to his mother, Zhao Bo must be a little reluctant to say goodbye, but now he seems to have lost hope in life.

But Gu Chen must find him first, and then save him.

Gu Chen still has considerable experience in handling this kind of police situation.

Time passed by, and everyone stood in the center of the rooftop, everyone was at a loss.

And just when everyone was gathering together to discuss in low voices after repeated searches without success, Gu Chen turned on his master's level of observation and suddenly discovered that a prototype of a human figure seemed to appear on an abandoned water tower in the distance.

But due to the backlight, Gu Chen couldn't see clearly.

Thinking that the situation was urgent, Gu Chen decided not to give up any attempts, and immediately activated his visual editing skills.

With the visual editing skills activated in his mind, Gu Chen blinked twice at the top of the water tower with his mind.

With a "click" sound, the picture at the top of the water tower suddenly turned into a high-definition picture in Gu Chen's mind.

The beautiful mechanical female voice also suddenly started.

Storage and analysis options suddenly appeared in front of Gu Chen.

So Gu Chen decisively chose analysis.

"You have chosen to analyze." The beautiful mechanical female voice replied.

As the brain waves continue to surge, various data streams also begin to stir.

Not long after, a beautiful mechanical female voice responded:

"The analysis results show that 60% are people, 20% are plants, 15% are animals, and 5% are others."

As the analysis results of the mechanical female voice continued to come out, Gu Chen was surprised to find that the highest probability determined by the system was actually a human?

"So, the black figure at the top of the water tower could be Zhao Bo?"

"Analyzing the results, it is recommended to choose the highest probability." The beautiful mechanical female voice responded again from Gu Chen's mind.

"Then let's try it. You'll have to treat it like a dead horse." Gu Chen couldn't think of a better way now.

Since the system has determined that the black figure at the top of the water tower is a person, he needs to go there and verify it.

When she saw that Gu Chen was looking up at a tall and old water tower in the distance, Lu Weiwei also came to Gu Chen's side and looked in the direction of the water tower with the clairvoyance of a gourd boy.

But soon, the sunlight made Lu Weiwei close her eyes, and she asked Gu Chen out of curiosity: "Junior brother Gu, what did you find?"

"There seems to be someone on top of the water tower." Gu Chen said.

"Is there anyone on the water tower?" Lu Weiwei tried her best to look in the direction of the water tower again, but she was still hit by the sunlight and chose to give up. She also said angrily:

"You can't see anything clearly under this sunlight. Can you see clearly?"

"I can see clearly. We need to take action now. If it's Zhao Bo, we can go over and verify it." Gu Chen doesn't want to explain too much now, he just wants to find Zhao Bo as soon as possible.

You know, Zhao Bo is quite dangerous now.

Always on the verge of death.

When Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha saw Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei preparing to head towards the water tower, Officer Wang also came over and asked, "Is there someone on the water tower?"

"It's not clear yet, let's go over and have a look." Gu Chen said as he walked, also racing against time.

"Old Wang, why don't you follow?" Lu Weiwei glanced at Officer Wang and immediately followed Gu Chen's footsteps.

Followed by Yuan Shasha.

Officer Wang felt abandoned and hurriedly kept up with the crowd.

A group of us got into the police car and according to the navigation, after passing through several narrow roads, we arrived at an industrial factory area.

This was originally a state-owned industrial park. After decades of development, the old factory area has long since been demolished.

The park is currently surrounded by a wall, and all the old buildings inside were basically demolished last month. Only this towering old water tower remains, which still stands in the center of the abandoned park.

This water tower mainly consists of a water tank, a foundation and a bracket connecting the two.

A few decades ago, they were generally used for water storage in residential areas, and some were also an important part of the production process of water plants.

These water towers could be seen everywhere in Jiangnan City a few decades ago, but very few of them can still be seen today. They are also a microcosm of the development of an era.

This kind of water tower, which was common in Jiangnan City decades ago, is generally a towering structure used for water storage and distribution, and is used to maintain and adjust the water volume and pressure in the water supply pipe network.

In industrial and civil buildings, water towers are a relatively common and special building.

Its construction requires special care and skill. If the construction quality is not good, it may cause permanent water leakage, or it may be scrapped and cannot be used.

Moreover, water towers are divided into reinforced concrete water towers, steel water towers, and water towers that combine masonry support tubes and reinforced concrete water tanks according to building materials.

The water tower in this abandoned park is obviously a representative of excellent quality.

After decades, it is still strong.

Now, this water tower has traveled through the quiet years, bathed in the warm spring breeze and the afterglow of the setting sun, revealing its past glory in the river of historical time.

Singing softly, an industrial grand plan hidden in the dust of a period of history.

A lot of vegetation has covered the lower structure of the water tower, so the water tower is a safe distance from the ground, but it is now covered by these stems and vines.

The lowest part that originally required climbing up with a ladder can now be climbed directly by climbing plants.

Gu Chen has seen this water tower in many local photography works. It can be said that this is an excellent place for retro sketching.

And if you can climb this 40-meter-high water tower and look out, the river water coming from the south will be like the jade belt from the Heavenly Palace flowing down to the world, winding and rolling through the city, and you will have a panoramic view of the entire Furong Old District in Jiangnan City.

.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! And the majestic appearance of this water tower could be seen from many directions in Jiangnan City.

When Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha came to the cylindrical foundation of the water tower, they suddenly felt that the tower was huge.

Lu Weiwei looked up, and her whole body suddenly felt bad: "Oh my God, is this too high? Isn't this a brave guy? Who dares to climb up like this?"

"So, maybe Zhao Bo is on top." After observing the structure below the water tower, Gu Chen also determined that ordinary people could climb up the basic stairs from the bottom of the water tower.

Officer Wang said with some fear: "It's so high. Although the steel structure stairs above look rusty, they are very strong. But if you climb up like this, it would make people weak in the legs, right?"

"You don't have to look down, so you won't be in danger of being afraid of heights." Gu Chen also explained.

Why is Gu Chen not afraid?

Because when Gu Chen was in the first grade of elementary school, he dared to reach out and hold the steel pipe directly from the fourth-floor window of the fire protection building near the school, which is now commonly known as the fire brigade training building, without any protective tools.

Slide to the bottom.

At that time, the fire brigade’s training ground was located on the edge of a residential area, and it mainly served a large state-owned chemical factory.

Therefore, after school, this place became an entertainment place for Gu Chen and his friends.

For this reason, Gu Chen often trained and played with the fire brigade members during his childhood.

On the fourth floor of the training building at that time, there were flat windows in all directions and no glass.

Gu Chen, a first-year student, stepped on the window pedal and looked at the height of the fourth floor. He couldn't reach out and grasp the steel pipe that fell straight from the rooftop to the ground.

But just like that, Gu Chen used his hands to aim, leaned forward, and then held the steel pipe with both hands. He was able to successfully clamp the steel pipe and slide it directly to the ground.

It's not that Gu Chen is great, it's just the environment.

At that time, almost 50% of the first-grade children dared to do this, and the firefighters at that time were also very strange. No one tried to dissuade them, but they would perform climbing for everyone and mingle with the children.

Compared with the current hope of the motherland, Gu Chen gained enough courage at that time.

It seems that in the first grade of elementary school, it was a shame to not dare to slide from the window sill on the fourth floor of the fire brigade training building to the first floor while holding on to the steel pipe.

Since then, Gu Chen has started to climb to the top.

The buildings in various factory areas and the various iron ladders on the edges have become Gu Chen's childhood fun.

The roof of the factory building, which is dozens of meters high, often becomes a playground for Gu Chen and his friends to play games.

This is why Gu Chen's climbing skills are usually among the best in the police force.

Because since the first grade of elementary school, Gu Chen has already reached a level that many adults dare not reach.

Courage is acquired almost from childhood.

And most of those friends back then joined the army and the police force and handed themselves over to the state.

Therefore, among everyone, while Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha were still worried about the tower being about forty meters high, Gu Chen had already taken action.

After using the help of plant stems and vines to climb up the basic structure of the water tower, Gu Chen began to climb quickly on the one-meter-wide spiral staircase inside the tower.

And this spiral staircase, which is more than one meter wide, also leads directly to the highest floor of the tower.

From the highest floor to the top of the tower, climb over the hole to reach the wide edge of the tower, then climb up the steel escalator vertically outside the tower, and then you can climb into the reservoir at the top of the tower.

This distance is about seven or eight meters high. The whole body is suspended in the air, and you have to alternately climb with your hands and feet to get up.

Therefore, ordinary people really don't dare to try it without any courage.

When you climb to the top of the tower, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Furong Old District in Jiangnan City. This is Gu Chen's experience climbing other water towers in the past.

However, just when Gu Chen planned the relevant steps and prepared to climb to the top of the tower step by step, he was suddenly called out by Lu Weiwei from below.

"Junior Brother Gu."

Gu Chen stopped his movements and looked down. He was already nearly ten meters away from Lu Weiwei on the ground.

At this time, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha seemed a bit insignificant.

"What's wrong, Senior Sister Lu?" Gu Chen grabbed the guardrail of the spiral iron staircase with both hands and asked.

"You just went up like that? Don't you need to prepare some protective gear locks and the like?" Lu Weiwei couldn't help but feel a little thump in her heart when she saw Gu Chen's quick movements and climbed up to a distance of more than ten meters in two or two strokes.

Gu Chen shook his head and said: "I climbed through this kind of building when I was in the first grade of elementary school. It was not a big problem. It was fine back then, let alone now."

"Really or not?" Officer Wang was stunned when he heard Gu Chen's words: "You dare to climb like this in the first grade of elementary school?"

"That's right, so don't worry, just stay down there and don't come up, otherwise it will be easy to come up. If you don't have the mental endurance to go down, your legs will probably lose control."

Gu Chen was not alarmist. Many of his friends back then were very happy when they went up, but when they went down, they seemed to be afraid of heights because they were too high from the ground and there was no protection around them.

In the end, we had no choice but to move the water tower down bit by bit, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive.

After all, this is different from the square training building during police training. Police training also has protective ropes, and these need to be climbed with bare hands.

Lu Weiwei originally wanted to go up with Gu Chen, but she thought it would be troublesome if she caused trouble for Gu Chen.

So he shouted from below: "Then please pay attention to your safety, we will not go up. After all, this spiral iron staircase can only accommodate one person's advancement and retreat."

This is the result of Lu Weiwei's discussion with Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha.

When Gu Chen heard this, he responded: "I know, just stay down there and I'll come down in a moment."

After the words fell, Gu Chen no longer cared about the situation below and began to look up ahead. He skillfully held on to the guardrail of the spiral iron ladder and climbed up cautiously.

Gu Chen's movements have their own rhythm. Every step must ensure that one of the hands is holding the guardrail before his legs can move forward.

When he climbed this kind of water tower, Gu Chen did not climb to the top of the water tower, but only climbed two-thirds of the way up the spiral staircase.

Because he was discovered by an adult, he stopped climbing.

Back then, due to his small body, the revolving iron ladder with a width of more than one meter and the guardrails seemed very safe.

Nowadays, people are taller and horses are bigger, and the one-meter-wide spiral iron ladder does not seem to have such a high safety factor.

But it’s not like I’m afraid to climb.

Along the one-meter-wide spiral staircase, Gu Chen began to put aside distracting thoughts, adjusted his breathing, and walked straight to the highest floor of the tower step by step.

From the highest floor to the top of the tower, Gu Chen continued to climb over the hole and reached the wide edge of the tower. Then he continued to climb up the steel escalator vertically outside the tower, preparing to climb directly into the reservoir at the top of the tower.

This distance is seven or eight meters high. During this period, Gu Chen's whole body was suspended in the air and he had to alternately climb with his hands and feet to go up.

Gu Chen climbed in the opposite direction inside the iron ladder, which had a higher safety factor.

Occasionally looking at the ground, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha have become three tiny black spots.

The sound of wind filled my ears, and it seemed to be blowing more violently than the ground.

The "dong-dong" sound produced by climbing shook off the rusty iron on many iron ladders.

But at the same time, Gu Chen also discovered that there were erased rust stains in many places where he climbed the iron ladder.

Apparently, someone did climb to the top of the water tower recently.

It was when Gu Chen worked hard to climb to the top of the water tower's reservoir that he realized that his hands and feet were a little sore.

Such repeated actions seemed to have consumed a lot of his physical strength.

But Gu Chen took advantage of his last breath and finally climbed up to the reservoir. He also lay on the top of the tower and moved to the center bit by bit.

At this moment, at another edge of the reservoir, the back of a young man appeared in front of Gu Chen.

The man also turned his head to look, and suddenly asked with a surprised look on his face: "You can actually climb up here?"

"There's nothing wrong with it." Gu Chen tried his best to stand up straight, patted his hands and the rust on his body, and said calmly:

"You can do it, and so can I. You should be Zhao Bo, right?"

Gu Chen saw that the man's face was very similar to Zhao Bo in the photo, so he recognized Zhao Bo at a glance.

Zhao Bo looked at Gu Chen's police uniform and immediately understood the purpose of Gu Chen's visit. He couldn't help but snorted and said, "My mother called the police, right?"

"No matter who called the police, you have to come down with me now." After Gu Chen finished speaking, he tried to get close to Zhao Bo.

But Zhao Bo suddenly became excited and moved his body directly to the edge of the water tower reservoir, warning: "Don't come over. If you dare to come over again, I will jump from here."

"Calm down." When Gu Chen heard this, he immediately stopped, feeling that Zhao Bo had not yet stabilized his mood.

Perhaps Zhao Bo, sitting on the edge of the reservoir at the top of the water tower, has been hesitating.

This height is enough to scare anyone. Just the pressure of tens of meters in the air, coupled with the blowing of various strong winds, is enough to make people feel terrified.

Gu Chen had never climbed to the top of the water tower's reservoir, and this time he fulfilled his childhood dream in order to find Zhao Bo.

But now Gu Chen encountered another problem, which was how to bring Zhao Bo back.

Gu Chen tried to calm down and sat cross-legged, five or six meters away from Zhao Bo, and said, "Let me introduce myself. I am Gu Chen from the Criminal Investigation Team of Furong Branch. Can we chat?"

"What's there to talk about?" Zhao Bo turned to look at Gu Chen, his legs hanging in the air.

But Gu Chen could tell from Zhao Bo's trembling body that Zhao Bo was actually scared and hesitant at the moment.

This gave Gu Chen a chance to communicate with him.

But if Zhao Bo is kept sitting like this on the edge of the water tank at the top of the water tower, with his legs dangling in the air, for a long time, Zhao Bo's body will definitely become stiff or disobedient.

In order to prevent Zhao Bo from losing his footing and falling due to his trembling body, Gu Chen could only take a few strategic steps back and began to move his body backwards, then he said: "I have already moved back now, you can try to move inward.

"

Gu Chen was giving Zhao Bo steps, but Zhao Bo refused to give in at the moment.

"Can you tell me what's going on with you?" Gu Chen adjusted the law enforcement recorder to the best angle and then asked him in a calm tone.

"It's nothing, I just don't have the face to see my family." Zhao Bo looked depressed at the moment.

Gu Chen was even able to see clearly the two traces of tears on Zhao Bo's face through his master's level of observation.

Obviously, Zhao Bo sat here alone and seemed to have cried bitterly.

But as for how long Zhao Bo had been sitting here blankly like this? Gu Chen didn't know yet.

I just feel that Zhao Bo's current situation is very bad.

"Would you like something to eat?" Gu Chen took out his pocket and found that the Snickers bar Lu Weiwei gave him was still there, so he took it in his hand as bait.

Zhao Bo seemed to be a little dizzy from hunger. When he saw the food in Gu Chen's hand, he couldn't help but lick his chapped lips a few times.

"This thing belongs to you now." Seeing that Zhao Bo was a little tempted, Gu Chen deliberately threw the Snickers bar in front of him, two-thirds of the way away from Zhao Bo.

In this way, he can not only ensure that he is close enough to Zhao Bo, but also allow Zhao Bo to relieve his wariness about approaching him, and then crawl over from the edge to reach a relatively safe distance.

After all, the first problem that Gu Chen had to solve was that Zhao Bo's body was stiff and he was in danger of falling at any time.

After Zhao Bo hesitated for a few seconds, his red eyes were fixed on the Snickers bar in front of him.

It seems like my mind is blank now, and when I see food, I want to have it immediately.

He didn't care too much. After staring at Gu Chen for a few seconds, he found that Gu Chen made no move to get closer. Then he slowly moved his stiff body and let his body begin to lie on the reservoir.

Then, he kept moving his body, stretched out his hands, and took the Snickers bar in front of him.

Gu Chen could tell that Zhao Bo was exhausted at this moment and didn't even have the strength to stand up.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! You can only get food by moving your body.

After tearing open the package, Zhao Bo started to devour it.

This scene made Gu Chen feel a little distressed.

He is obviously the proud son of heaven, but now he has fallen to this level.

It was hard for Gu Chen to imagine what happened to Zhao Bo so that he could climb to such a dangerous height?

"Eat slowly, I still have water." Seeing that Zhao Bo's mouth was dry now, Gu Chen directly took out the police water bottle from the police equipment and carefully placed it in front of him.

Use the bevel at the top of the water tower reservoir to gently push the police kettle.

The kettle slid down the oblique angle and slid directly in front of Zhao Bo.

Zhao Bo, who was in a state of embarrassment, raised his head and looked at Gu Chen.

He didn't say anything, just opened the police kettle and took a few gulps.

Gu Chen frowned and said calmly: "I know some things about you. You just graduated and have had several jobs. You are currently working on the Jiangnan Marriage Dating Website."

"But unfortunately, because the company has been involved in some illegal activities and is currently under rectification investigation, you have basically lost your job."

"It seems that you investigated very carefully." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Zhao Bo frowned and said with a smile: "I am a complete loser. It was only after graduation that I realized that those things I had

The so-called self-confidence is simply vulnerable."

"It is said that society is a big dyeing vat. From the moment I step out of campus, I have to face violent storms, but I didn't expect that I would be so embarrassed."

Shaking his head, Zhao Bo's tears couldn't stop flowing out.

Gu Chen also nodded silently and echoed: "What you said makes sense. In fact, when I was a child, I often envied people who were born smart and did everything effortlessly. Later I realized that hard work and concentration are the most important things in the world.

The most precious gift.”

"You have just graduated. What you lack is work experience, but if you continue to work hard in a certain industry, you will become an expert in this field. The abilities brought by these concentration will be your most valuable wealth."

"I understand all the truth." After hearing Gu Chen's words, Zhao Bo nodded silently and said with sobs:

"Actually, I don't want to be introverted. Really, just because I don't want to be introverted doesn't mean that I don't want to work hard."

"But why do we have to run so hard to stay where we are?"

With a faint sigh, Zhao Bo continued to drink a sip of water, and then said again:

"The reason why I want to say this is because at this time last year, I had just graduated and was preparing my resume with great ambition. I never imagined that the recruitment requirements of many companies actually said "fresh graduates" and "employed" at the same time.

experience'."

"But how can fresh graduates have work experience? Even if they work part-time during school, it is impossible for them to meet the so-called 'work experience' of these employers."

After a pause, Zhao Bo also said with a depressed face: "It's hard to find an Internet job, but the commute alone takes an hour."

“After get off work, I saw that my colleagues were still there, and I was too embarrassed to leave, so I just worked overtime with them.”
