"Alfred, we need to fly about another ten kilometers west from here," Shen Yibin said quickly, praying the animal wasn't moving too fast.
"In that case, we probably won't have enough fuel for the return trip. We'll need to head to a nearby army base to refuel first," Alfred said, glancing at the instrument panel. He then spoke a few words to the guide in the local language.
The guide nodded, took his headset, and spoke a few words. The helicopter changed direction, flying toward the army base. After arriving and refueling and replenishing their drinking water, the group resumed their pursuit of the animal.
"Ooh! Ooh!" They hadn't been flying for long when Hah'Er, who was pressed against the window, grew excited. Below them, on the endless savanna, a small, winding river meandered peacefully. Countless animals, large and small, were gathered along its banks to drink. The rare spectacle immediately captured the attention of Shen Yibin and Sylvie.
