Chapter 43 The Real 'Nurse Shark'
Xiao Peng was speechless as he watched the giant nurse shark swimming around the sailboat. Could it have gotten addicted to playing with it that day?! Was it coming to play with him again?
Now is not the time to waste time with it, saving lives is the most important thing!
But the big nurse shark saw Xiao Peng and swam directly towards him, swimming around him and rubbing its head against Xiao Peng.
What are you doing? Want some affection or a hug?
Xiao Peng turned around and saw a man whose hands and feet were too weak to struggle and he was beginning to sink. He quickly pushed away the giant nurse shark that was entangled with him, swam towards the man from the bottom up, and lifted him out of the sea again!
"Juyi! My old brother, hold on, I'm here to save you!" An old man wearing a life jacket was swimming hard towards here.
Xiao Peng pointed behind him and said, "Your friend is fine! Don't swim towards us! Swim towards the boat!"
The old man heaved a sigh of relief when he heard his friend was okay. "I'm glad he's okay, but I really can't swim anymore... Oh my God! Help!"
The old man suddenly made an unexpected sound. Everyone around him looked at him and asked: "No one made such a sound when they fell into the water just now!" What's wrong with this old man?
What happened next was even more astonishing: This old man, who had just been shouting he couldn't swim, suddenly swam faster than a torpedo! The water around him parted, and he began to cut through the waves! Even if that Australian swimming champion, Horton, took ten kilograms of performance-enhancing drugs, he couldn't swim that fast!
But because he was swimming too fast, although he slowed down obviously when he approached Derrida and his wife's boat, inertia still made him continue to rush forward. Only a scream was heard, and the old man hit the hull like a photo.
Mr. Derrida rushed to get him aboard.
"What on earth happened?" Everyone was confused.
At this time, a gray dorsal fin appeared on the sea surface.
"Shark!" Everyone who saw the gray dorsal fin exclaimed in unison. The people who fell into the water, who were already nervous after hearing the word "shark", became even more nervous!
Xiao Peng shouted directly: "Everyone calm down! That shark is here to help us!"
"What?" Everyone suspected that they had heard it wrong and looked at Xiao Peng as if he was a fool.
Xiao Peng didn't understand why the nurse shark did this, but he was sure it was trying to help him. It was the shark that had just brought the old man who said he couldn't swim away from the Derrida couple's boat!
Does this shark know what it is thinking?
In any case, with the help of nurse sharks, the efficiency of rescuing people will be much faster!
The giant nurse shark swam to Xiao Peng and circled around him, constantly touching Xiao Peng with its head.
The others in the sea were horrified when they saw this scene, but Xiao Peng was not nervous because he and the shark were old friends. And the shark showed no signs of attacking anyone!
Xiao Peng didn't know what it was thinking, so he simply put the man he had just rescued on its back: This nurse shark was more than three meters long. Although it was not as wide as a great white shark, it was still very easy to carry a person on its back!
"Go to the boat!" Xiao Peng pointed at Mr. Derrida's boat.
The nurse shark carried the man on its back and swam directly to the side of the boat. Then it dived into the sea, put the man next to the boat, and swam back to Xiao Peng.
Everyone at the scene couldn't believe their eyes. When did sharks become so obedient and help save people?
Xiao Peng shouted, "Everyone calm down. If a shark swims towards you, don't be afraid. Let it carry you back to the boat one by one! Those who are older and weaker should go first! Everyone, stay close to me now so I can take better care of you!"
The other people on the boat were also stunned by this scene. One of them, who was filming with his mobile phone, said, "Is this a miracle?"
"What a miracle! Didn't you notice? This yellow guy is the one who appeared on TV a while ago! What was he called? 'Dancing with Sharks'! This is the nurse shark that danced with him on TV!"
"Isn't this amazing? Did you record it?"
"Do I need to tell you that? I started recording the moment this kid jumped into the sea without caring about his life! This kid is a hero!"
"Aren't you ashamed? Others are being heroes while you're hiding away and recording?"
"What's so shameful about this? Aren't there just as many people like me these days?"
"Damn, you're right! Okay, you record the video. For, let's get busy too! Use the radio to notify the other ships, and take turns getting as close as possible to help with the rescue! Oh, and call the police! Get the Coast Guard over! Call the media too! Let them see what heinous deeds this cargo ship has done!"
"Yes, Captain!"
In any case, with their help, the rescue speed was indeed much faster. Although there were many people who fell into the water, all of them were rescued without any danger!
When the last person who fell into the water was rescued onto the boat, Xiao Peng returned to his boat, wrapped himself in a bath towel and sat down to rest!
As the main force of the rescue, Xiao Peng is really exhausted!
The French police are incredibly efficient! Whether on land or at sea, the results are the same! The Coast Guard boat arrived over an hour after the collision.
They arrived even faster than the media people who rushed over after hearing the news!
No wonder the French police were scolded. Xiao Peng now wants to curse in the streets!
Mrs. Derrida’s voice came over the radio: “Xiao, you are really great!”
Xiao Peng picked up the intercom and shook his head helplessly, saying, "I just did what everyone should do... But Mrs. Derrida, what exactly happened today? Why are you protesting today? I'm helpless, can't you just calm down?"
Mrs. Derrida raised her voice after hearing this. "Xiao, although you're a good child, you're not French after all! We're doing this because we love this country! If we know the country is in trouble and we don't stand up, the country's problems will only grow! This is a reflection of our sense of responsibility! This time is different from last time. Last time, the sex workers marched for their own rights! This time, we're demonstrating for this country!"
Xiao Peng was stunned. How could this have been taken so seriously? He wondered what was wrong with the country. How could the decisions made by so many think tanks in the national leadership still not match those of you old men and women?
Of course, he couldn't say this out loud. After all, this was his good friend, and the last big march was all for him! He couldn't let this upset the old lady, so he said, "Mrs. Derrida, you're right. As someone who doesn't know the inside story, I shouldn't say this. So, can you tell me what's wrong with me that has made you so angry?"
Mrs. Derrida said angrily: "If it were you, you would be even angrier than me!"
