In 2013, there had been a similar tragedy that happened here, at the beach that was famous due to Cleopatra.
Four Chinese students studying in Egypt came together as a group to Mersa Matruh. They didn't go to the famous Agiba Beach or Gharam Beach. Maybe they didn't like the fact that the other beaches had a lot of people, or maybe they wanted to see Cleopatra's bathroom too. But all four of them had ended up drowning here.
As there had been no other witnesses then, no one knew how they had drowned, leaving behind nothing but regret and remorse.
Seeing that the tragedy was about to repeat itself and that it was an emergency, Zhang Zian couldn't just leave the other man to die. He couldn't call the police, and he definitely couldn't jump in to save him, or he would just be sending the Grim Reaper another gift.
