"On the bridge, I passed behind a figure leaning over the parapet, who seemed to be looking at the river. Closer, I made out a slim young woman, dressed in black. Between her dark hair and the collar of her coat, I could only see a fresh, wet neck, which I was sensitive to. But I continued on my way, after a hesitation. I had already covered about fifty meters, when I heard the noise, which despite the distance, seemed formidable to me in the silence of the night, of a body falling on the water. I stopped dead, but without turning around. Almost immediately, I heard a cry, repeated several times, which also went down the river, then died out suddenly."
