This happened to my junior high school monitor.
This choice can easily bring a devastating blow to people, and there is never a standard answer to choosing one of the two.
My junior high school monitor is called Xiao Zou for short. Xiao Zou usually has a very cheerful and lively personality and likes to make friends with others.
After graduating from junior high school, he transferred to another school, and the few of us who usually play well still keep in touch occasionally.
One night, I suddenly received a call from Xiao Zou.
At that time, I thought he was trying to chase the girl next door to me and ask me to set up a matchmaking relationship.
But then what I heard made my skin crawl.
Xiao Zou likes to play everywhere. There are many mountains and rivers around our house, and many young people go swimming from time to time.
Xiao Zou said that he went swimming with his best friend Xiao Huang and his own brother that day. They were swimming well, but they got bored and went to swim in a dragon pool above.
As a result, an accident happened. Xiao Zou, the squad leader, had a leg cramp while diving. He struggled and called for help, but found that there was no one around him.
At that time, he was in a panic and couldn't care about himself. He shouted the names of his brother and friends loudly, but only snoring bubbles came out of the water.
It was getting late and the water was rising. He made the most painful and irreversible choice in his life.
He took a breath and chose to save the nearest person.
I later asked him if he knew who it was when he was rescuing people.
He said he didn't think about anything but that he couldn't die and it would be safest to save the nearest person.
The person closest to him was his own brother, but his best friend was dead.
The reason why he called me that time was because he couldn't sleep all night and felt scared when he went to sleep.
These two people can be said to be his relatives. He wants to save both of them, but he can only save one.
No matter how many times I make the choice, I believe I will still save the one closest to me.
Both of them are relatives, it's not that they don't love each other, it's just that the rescue must be successful and the rescue must be valuable.
The person who has the greatest hope of salvation should be chosen rationally.
