Chương 469: ON FLIGHT VIII

"Ben had seemed much more knowledgeable about the rain forest and the tribes occupying it. He'd done extensive research and had come prepared. He spent a lot of time talking to the guides and porters, asking questions and trying to learn from them. The archaeologist and his students were very excited and seemed completely oblivious to the tension running through the camp, although I had noticed they were uneasy at night, sitting close to the fire. They seemed driven, amicable and very focused on their mission. They had seemed young and naive, even the professor, who was in his late fifties." Annabel continued with the tale which she said had a morale for Emma at the end of it all. 

Emma felt a little sorry for all three archaeologists, that they were so clueless, that they had fallen under Annabel's pity radar.
