The murmurs from the crowd brought Zhuang Chi back to reality. She stood up and leaned out of the window.
Downstairs, the flowerbed area was crowded with onlookers, each of them pulling out their phones to capture this shocking and unthinkable scene.
Zhuang Chi was also stunned.
There was no splattered blood, nor were there any dismembered limbs.
The scene at the entrance of the hotel also proved that she had not had a hallucination. For some reason, whether willingly or coerced, the woman had fallen from the building.
But she didn't smash onto the fence and shatter into pieces as she herself had planned; instead, she was still positioned head-down, her entire body suspended in mid-air.
Before long, someone approached her and groped around the woman's ankles.
From their astonished expressions, Zhuang Chi understood the message they conveyed.
There were no ropes, no protective support devices; the fallen woman was suspended in mid-air by some unknown means to them.
