"Well, be careful. It saved us." Andrews rolled down the window. "Man, you are a good person! I wish you success forever!"
"Thank you, Andrews, but I don't think you should pliment me like that because we're both lucky and maybe not just because we're good people."
When Andrews looked back, the seagull had stood up.
"This seagull is so smart!" James exclaimed excitedly, "It can actually understand what I'm saying, and it also knows how to help us."
"This is no accident," said Mr. Andrews, staring at the seagull. "It is indeed a clever parrot. And, have you forgotten where this is, James?"
"Oh, yes, it's the Indian Ocean."
"So, I think it came to us because it was attracted by some special signal."
"What special signal? You mean someone on this ship called him?"
Andrews shook his head.
"Your guess is probably right, but who would do this? I don't think it's necessary. I believe it never received special training to be alert, because this makes no sense at all."
"Right." James said, "Then let's go. Our main goal - Manila, is not far from landing now."
"I know, you said we'll have enough food and fresh water soon?"
“Yes.” James replied with a smile.
Andrews laughed, then started the car and drove from the dock to the flight to Manila.
As the plane hovered over the harbor, the crew jumped aboard and prepared to leave. Andrews followed James and jumped onto the deck, watching as the hatch slowly retracted until it was pletely closed, and the inside and outside of the cabin went dark.
"This is the silent sign, hey!" James sighed, "We need to get the boat back as soon as possible. This place is clearly not suitable for us to stay long, otherwise we will have to spend the rest of our lives on this deserted island."
"No, no, I don't think so." Andrews said, "Although we can't leave here now, we can choose another route to go."
