The online motorbike taxi driver, named Noval, willingly offered them a ride back to the hotel without expecting payment. Intrigued, the Rescue Brother inquired why Noval was so generous despite not receiving any money. Noval explained that he was willing to help voluntarily as long as he could assist someone in need.

To Noval’s surprise, the Rescue Brother handed him 500 thousand rupiah, bringing tears to Noval’s eyes. He hadn’t anticipated receiving such a substantial sum, as his initial intention was simply to help the Rescue Brother get back to their hotel.

The Rescue Brother’s decision to select Noval stemmed from his pure-hearted nature and his willingness to offer voluntary assistance.
