章 242: First Clue?

With the unconscious T-Rex at his feet, Jake eagerly awaited the arrival of the predator that had gutted the dinosaur the previous two times. He didn't know if the monster would take the bait, but it was worth a try.

Suddenly, the howling between a meow and the chirping of a canary pierced the silence of the jungle again, triggering the flight of another flock of birds. The foliage of the trees wavered and capsized as the creature passed by, allowing Jake to predict its arrival.

Then it was silent again and the trees and bushes became still once more. Jake's fine hearing could hear a wheeze, close to a rattle a few meters in front of him, but the monster remained hidden behind the trees and bushes, sheltered from the light.

The man and the beast stared at each other for a long time without really being able to distinguish anything, but they could feel each other's presence. In the end, the predator did not fall for it.
