"Ah Zhi."

In the living room, only a faint moonlight shone on Xie Jiasen through the French windows.

He muttered to himself, "Do you remember the scene of our second meeting?"

After speaking, he tilted his head back and finished a can of beer.

Although Xie Jiasen couldn't hear me, I still replied, "I remember."

"Back then, if it weren't for you, maybe I would have died," he said.

Five years ago, one night when it was my turn for duty.

The team received a distress call, saying that a man seemed to be attempting to jump off a building.

My colleague and I hurried to a office building on Guanhai Street.

Soon, the drone transmitted real-time footage from the rooftop.

On the computer screen, I saw Xie Jiasen's face.

...

I never imagined that the scene of meeting Xie Jiasen again would be like that.

He sat on the edge of the rooftop, with his legs hanging outside the railing.

After communicating with the firefighters, I stood a few steps away from him and cautiously spoke, "Is there something bothering you that you can talk to me about?"

Hearing the sound, Xie Jiasen slowly turned his head.

Perhaps due to the evening breeze, his face was pale:

"Officer, we really meet again."

Xie Jiasen let out a long sigh and turned his head to look at the bustling streets of Haishi City:

"I just wanted to excel in esports, to let everyone know my name, but officer...

"Why is it so difficult to live?"

The wind blew his clothes, and I quickly took a step forward, "At least now I know your name.

"Xie Jiasen.

"I believe that one day, you will stand on a bigger stage and participate in esports competitions. Your skills are so good, you will definitely win the championship.

"In the future, many people will like you, admire you, and many businesses may come to you for advertising endorsements!

"By that time, your photos will be posted everywhere, and everyone will know your name is Xie Jiasen.

"When that day comes, I will cheer for you along with everyone else, and then say to you, 'Xie Jiasen, you did great.'

"Saying that, I slowly raised my right hand and held it in front of Xie Jiasen's face, 'Now, are you willing to come down with me?'"

Under the night sky, Xie Jiasen and I locked eyes.

At that moment, I seemed to see a twinkle of starlight in his eyes.

Just like when I inherited my father's badge years ago.

Then, he raised his hand and covered my palm:

"I'm willing, Officer."

But Xie Jiasen didn't know.

Actually, that wasn't our second meeting.
