Question

Will Dr.Sadao take the man in and save him ???

Answer 1

Dr. Sadao and Hana saw a man on his hand and knees crawling from the verandah of their house. Sadao thought that he was perhaps a fisherman who was washed from his boat. He ran quickly down the steps and Hana followed him. They come toward him and found him wounded. The man lay motionless with his face in the sand. An old cap stuck to his head soaked with sea water. He was in wet rags of garments. Sadao turned the man's head and they saw the face.
Hana whispered that it was a white man. From the white man's cap, Sadao found thar, he was U.S. Navy's sailor and thus was a prisoner of war. He had escaped and that is why he was wounded in the back. Hana said that the kindest thing would be to put him back into the sea. Dr. Sadao said that if the white man would not have been wounded, he could have turned him over to the police ,without difficulty. He said that he cared nothing for the white man because he was an American and all Americans were his enemies. Then Hana said to Sadao that he also could not throw him back to the sea. So there was only one thing to do, that is, to carry him into the house. This Dr. Sadao decided to take the man in and save him.
