In early January in Ningbo, although it was afternoon, the weather was still chilly. There had been a snowfall a couple of days before, and there was still snow on the side of the roads in the suburbs.
At around 2 p.m., Officer Wang Xiaoxu from the Qiaoi Police Station in Yinzhou received an emergency call - someone had found a vagrant in an abandoned factory and he might have broken ribs and could not move at all.
