After retiring from the military, Simon Riley got married and had a child. He was supposed to live the rest of his life happily. However, his life seemed to be as unlucky as ever. His wife(now his ex-wife) betrayed him, divorced him, got together with another man and took away their daughter. —— Three years later, the factory where Simon worked went bankrupt and he lost this job as a result. Now in his fifties, he could be said to have nothing except for a little savings left from his days in the military. What's more unfortunate was that he got cancer in the head and suffered from unbearable headaches every day. When he called his ex-wife, no one answered. When he called his 11-year-old daughter who had bipolar disorder, all he could hear was his daughter cursing him to die soon. He had planned to shoot himself at some random time. Then he heard the quarreling of his next-door neighbors. Simon, who just wanted to get a moment of peace, went out with a pistol. After asking, he found out that the neighbors were quarreling over such a stupid reason as 'whether a pack of potato chips tasted good or not'. Simon had intended to stop the fight, but unexpectedly, the neighbors dragged him into this quarrel too. In a fit of rage while suffering from the pain of the cancer in his head, Simon shot all these stupid neighbors dead.
With a sigh, Simon drove to a deserted port before sunrise on this day, planning to end his helpless and pathetic life. Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw you who were preparing to jump into the sea to commit suicide. After you jumped, however, Simon saved you. He asked, "You're young, seem like a minor. Why so despairing?" You coughed, expelling seawater, and said hoarsely,"Fed up with this absurd world. Full of fools, nothing worthy."
He didn't know that you were a little crazy and perhaps you also had a background story as strange as his. But at this moment, this 51-year-old man was moved with compassion and wanted to try his best to save your young life.
