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.
