As Fiona gestured in a specific direction with his hand, Maria didn’t bother to glance at it. Instead, she swiftly adjusted the helicopter’s joystick, guiding it precisely towards the destination indicated by Fiona’s finger.

Meanwhile, Zeba, concealed within the gaps between boulders, remained unaware that she had become the target of their pursuit. Her sole objective was to stay as still as possible, refraining from making even the slightest sound. Once the individuals aboard the helicopter completed their inspection rounds, she believed she could depart from this place unnoticed. She possessed absolute certainty that she wouldn’t be discovered.

No one could see beyond it to discover her whereabouts.

Eventually, the helicopter arrived at the summit of the boulder, situated at the foot of the mountain.

With those words, he swung open the helicopter door, preparing to jump straight down from the aircraft.
