As Charlie 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 Charlie'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.
The helicopter circled the valley multiple times, yet its occupants never descended to search the area. The massive boulder obstructing Zeba's view was thick enough to defy any attempt at detection, even with advanced equipment like thermal imaging. No one could see beyond it to discover her whereabouts.
However, unease began to creep into Zeba's heart when the helicopter suddenly veered towards her. As it grew closer, her heart raced with anxiety.
Eventually, the helicopter arrived at the summit of the boulder, situated at the foot of the mountain.
