Chapter 288 Five Minutes
This is how the world is, no one cares about your own wishes, just like bosses in social life always emphasize results to you. If Zheng Xiuheng does not arrive within five minutes, the program will definitely be abandoned.
And Zheng Xiuheng might also be ruined because of this incident...
Li Zhongmin looked a little panicked at the moment, but he didn't care about the program. After all, he was very clear about this program. It didn't have many characteristics, and the only characteristic was the most important one.
That characteristic is Zheng Xiuheng. There is no doubt that Zheng Xiuheng's casualness and seriousness as a problem solver, as well as the good music he often pushes, have increased the listening rate and made many listeners start to like this program and listen to it regularly.
But if such a result happens at this time, the media and Koreans who are completely ignorant of the situation will definitely put most of the blame for the girl's suicide on Zheng Xiuheng. Koreans do not need a reason to blindly follow others. As long as it is a so-called "bad thing" and there is a leader, everyone else will become "defenders" of "justice."
"Here it comes, a text message has arrived!"
Liu Meihui's voice rang out, and Li Zhongmin turned his head hurriedly. Seeing the text message on the screen, his heart tightened, and then he looked at the man in the live studio, his eyes also became worried. Although he was very dissatisfied with this guy, he had to say that Li Zhongmin admired this guy very much, because the audience of this program is not just those who like to listen to the program before going to bed or during the night shift, nor are they just some sad people who want to find warmth.
In fact, Lee Jong-min and others are also ordinary people. In fact, he also likes this show...
At this moment, Krystal Jung and Hong Jin Young, who were sitting on the sofa, had slightly different expressions, but they were both serious, nervous and worried. Especially Krystal Jung, who was grabbing the hem of her skirt with both hands, looking at her brother in the live broadcast room, and was extremely nervous.
"good!"
With a simple reply, Zheng Xiuheng stood up, threw away his headset, unbuttoned his shirt, then turned and walked out of the room.
"You start counting the time, report the time to me at any time by phone, and confirm her location and situation by leaving a message!"
After saying that, Zheng Xiuheng turned around and walked to his position in the live broadcast room, and said into the microphone: "I saw your reply, the countdown starts from this moment, see you later!"
After saying that, Zheng Xiuheng turned around again and quickly left the live studio.
Although Li Zhongmin and others wanted to say something, this was a race against time and no one said any more nonsense.
Zheng Xiuheng was so annoying that he even stopped at the sofa.
"Just wait for your brother to come back, okay?"
"Um!"
Zheng Xiujing nodded her head anxiously. She did not say anything to her brother at this time, fearing that she would burden him at this time.
Zheng Xiuheng smiled and rubbed her little head, then walked to the side, opened the door, and rushed out quickly.
At this moment, twenty seconds have passed.
Today's Mapo Bridge is really lively...
But the atmosphere was unusually solemn. At this moment, both sides of the Mapo Bridge were really full of parked cars. Although it was not really blocked and there was still a lane next to it, but overall it looked like a long queue.
There was a vacuum area of more than three meters around the statue. Many people wanted to approach the woman, but were all driven away...
Looking at the many cans next to the chair, the onlookers basically understood the situation.
The driver who arrived at the scene first was also a little surprised at this moment. There were a lot more people around now, and it seemed that many of them came here specially. Although it was difficult to count the number of people now, there were at least more than a hundred people.
"Honey, can DJ Xiuheng make it?"
A woman in a black coat in the crowd was nervously asking her husband, who was wearing a shirt and suit.
The man next to her also had a serious look on his face. The two of them were less than ten meters away from the woman on the guardrail. At first, he also wanted to go up and pull her down, but the woman's reaction was very intense, so those who wanted to help all stepped back a little, fearing that they would provoke the other party's emotions.
But surprisingly, the voice coming from the radio pushed the matter to an extreme situation, which made everyone worry about what would happen if DJ Zheng Xiuheng didn't get here in five minutes?
The people here are different from those listeners who are scolding Zheng Xiuheng on the message board at this moment. The reason why this couple came here can be said to be entirely because of Zheng Xiuheng. In fact, to some extent, the two of them are fans of Zheng Xiuheng.
The gentleman in front of us, because of a hug from his wife, felt the warmth of family again. He was pleasantly surprised and astonished by his wife's change. After learning the reason, he became a loyal listener of the program "Zheng Xiuheng's Waiting for Sunrise", and both of them were very grateful to Zheng Xiuheng.
In fact, many people came here for this reason. Zheng Xiuheng is different from many anchors who preach moral principles. Although he also says a lot of literary words, he will definitely express his personal subjective opinions in the end, just like "give him a hug."
People who are confused and in pain emotionally need comfort, so late-night emotional programs exist. Zheng Xiuheng has been a DJ for almost three months. During this period, Zheng Xiuheng has also answered many calls from listeners, which contain various stories. Of course, it is impossible for Zheng Xiuheng to help the other party solve every problem.
But every time, Zheng Xiuheng would give his suggestions very seriously. Although it might not necessarily make people happy or relieve pain, it could push many people out of confusion and take steps forward.
Just like this young couple...
So after hearing the program, they decided to rush to Mapo Bridge in just a moment. Although it seemed to be none of their business, they really wanted to help DJ Zheng Xiuheng, and at the same time they didn't want such a tragedy to really happen. Even if they just told the program team the current situation through text messages, they felt that this was a kind of help.
There are many people who think like them. Half of the people who come here stopped their cars here because they heard the show was happening nearby, and the other half came here on purpose.
In fact, there are only a few dozen listeners, and most of them are adults. Just like many groups of game and sports enthusiasts, the listeners who like to listen to this program have gradually become organized. It is also very interesting to occasionally talk about songs and the mysterious DJ.
According to statistics, among the listeners of Zheng Xiuheng's program, only about 15% are under 20 years old, 35% are between 20 and 30 years old, 35% are between 30 and 40 years old, and the rest are over 40 years old.
The woman sitting on the bridge, looking at the men and women around her who were looking at her worriedly and nervously, did not feel warm, but sad instead.
"Is this the only time I get attention like this when I'm dying?"
“Boom!”
There was a loud thunder in the sky and the woman's body shook.
"ah!"
"careful!"
The people around were frightened and screamed, and two people even rushed out.
“Don’t come over here!”
The woman screamed and grabbed the railing with both hands. The two men who were less than five meters away from her stopped again. Seeing that she had raised her right foot to cross the railing, they did not dare to move anymore. If she really jumped down, they would be doomed.
Some people in the crowd were already cursing why the police hadn't arrived yet. Although the police might be useless here, if the rescue team arrived, given the height of the Mapo Bridge, even if someone jumped off, they would definitely not die. As long as the rescue was timely, they should be able to get them out quickly. After all, even though there has been very little rainfall in the past few months and the water level of the Han River has dropped, the height of the Mapo Bridge is only more than ten meters from the river surface.
It can be said that people who jump into the river here will not die immediately after jumping. Basically, these people will drown, even if they rise to a height of 20 meters. It is basically impossible to die directly, because the upper limit of high diving is 28 meters.
Perhaps the woman who was thinking of jumping off the water did not expect that her text message would attract so many people's attention. If she had jumped quietly, there would not have been so much trouble.
“Boom!”
There was another loud thunder. The woman looked up at the sky and suddenly remembered something. She said with a sad face, "There is no starry sky at all!"
I lowered my head and took out my phone. I saw that the time had changed to 1:21:32. There were still two minutes and twenty seconds left until the agreed time. I looked in the direction of Yeouido...
"Maybe he can't make it, or maybe he has no intention of coming at all. Why should I listen to others' orders at this time? Maybe I should jump now!"
“Crash!”
The howling wind and the sudden heavy rain made Zheng Xiuheng realize that the night sky was covered by dark clouds. This sudden heavy rain was just like Zheng Xiuheng's mood at the moment, very depressed and full of dissatisfaction...
The streets of Yeouido were no longer bustling with traffic, but when he saw the bright Mapo Bridge in the distance, the cars and the constant honking of horns, his brows furrowed.
Zheng Xiuheng didn't know what his maximum speed was. Given his physical condition, it really didn't take much time for him to run 1,500 meters.
The men's world record for 1500 meters is 3 minutes 26 seconds 00, which means that the five minutes proposed by Zheng Xiuheng is indeed possible to achieve.
But unlike in a competitive competition, he was not running laps. Instead, he was leaving MBC, crossing the road to Mapo Bridge, and finally arriving in front of the woman who was about to commit suicide.
Most people would definitely not be able to do this. Even a world champion would face many troublesome situations. Just going downstairs and rushing out of MBC would probably take a lot of time. But Zheng Xiuheng can do it, and he can do it very easily.
Just like if he participated in the 1500m race, he could easily reduce the world record by two or even three times. But in the same way, Zheng Xiuheng could reach that speed, but his mind was not synchronized, and he had not specially trained for extreme speed.
To put it bluntly, if Zheng Xiuheng ran at full speed now, he would most likely hit something after taking a few steps, so he would only run towards Mapo Bridge at the maximum speed within his controllable range. Of course, this speed was more than enough for the five-minute agreement.
It was raining heavily. Zheng Xiuheng crossed the road directly, stepped onto the bridge in less than two minutes, and ran forward again.
