Dial 911 | 拨打911

点击查看中英对照

Jennifer and Amanda were close friends since childhood, now attending college together. Jennifer was studious and focused, while Amanda was more carefree and impulsive.

One evening, Jennifer was working on her calculus homework while Amanda chatted online, singing along to her headphones. "Shut up, Amanda. You're being annoying," Jen snapped. Amanda quieted down but soon squealed with excitement. "Guess what, Jen! David, my internet boyfriend, wants to meet me tomorrow night!" Jennifer responded with little enthusiasm, prompting Amanda to go to bed early.

The following night, Amanda met David at a local bar called "McGrundy's." They had a great time, and despite being tipsy, Amanda accepted one more drink—a screwdriver—from David before they left together.

The next morning, Jennifer was awakened by sounds from the bathroom. She found Amanda unconscious in a bathtub filled with ice cubes. A note on the counter read: "Call 911 if you want to live." Jennifer, realizing it was no joke, immediately dialed for help.

Paramedics arrived and removed Amanda from the tub. Upon examination, they discovered her kidneys had been stolen.
