At a large dock, a giant cruise ship was slowly pulling up.
After her four-month voyage around the globe, starting from the H City, the ship finally made it back to the port.
The tourists had a blast, all of them laughing and joking as they disembarked.
When all the passengers were off, the first mate approached the captain, "What do we do with the guy downstairs?"
"What else can we do but hand him over to the police?" the captain scratched his head.
The story goes back over a month ago.
They were on their way back when a floating wodden plank was spotted by the crew members who were fishing.
Ocean currents would bring all kinds of stuff to the area, but no one ever expected to find a man lying on driftwood.
They were far away from land, so seeing someone drifting was quite a shocker.
Fortuitously, the sea was fairly tranquil that night. One of the crew members, who happened to be a skilled swimmer, wasted no time to plunge into the water, swiftly swimming towards the man in distress.
"He's alive!"
The crew was over the moon.
The first mate and captain were notified, and they hauled him aboard.
Once on board, they realized the man was severely injured. Some of his wounds looked rotten from being soaked in seawater for too long.
Thankfully, the ship had a medical team and the necessary equipment for his treratment.
The medical team quickly treated his wounds.
Originally, they planned to hand him over to the police at the nearest port.
But then…
He started to talk during a fever.
Everyone thought he was a foreigner.
Following the first mate's gaze, the captain saw a great white shark now swimming near the plank.
Had they found the man any later, he would've been shark bait.
During the month he spent on the ship, the man encountered numerous perilous situations that brought him close to death. Miraculously, he managed to survive each of these encounters.
The kind-hearted crew members would buy medicine in cities using their own money whenever the ship docked.
Now, the man's injuries had healed.
He had an amazing recovery rate.
But he was still unconscious.
After cleaning the cabins, the crew took the still unconscious man to the local police station.
The police were surprised and immediately sent him to the hospital.
