Elias allowed the Chancellor his moment to explain. However, as he went on, the clouds of a storm gathered on the horizon.
The story corraborated with that of Paul's. His uncle had spoken of revolutionary findings. At the time, Eli listened to the man's science with but half an ear, but all he could hear was the luring song of leaving Utah. His uncle might have been a sheep farmer and Eli would have followed him if it meant trading Kenab for New Zealand.
This man, this beetle beneath his shoe was the reason his uncle was gone, the reason Eli's life in New Zealand was washed away.
Tony's agreeable nature interrupted the gathering storm, and Eli accepted the paper. The professor whom he had an appointment with was the one to have disappeared. Come back later, his note had read.
Who constituted this so-called second team? The Chancellor accused Eli and Tony of being Chinese or American. Were governments involved in the plot?
He put the map aside for now. "Just one more question, Tony."
Eli said coolly. "What were they seeking?"
The Chancellor quickly clammed up, shaking his head as though whatever was in his thoughts would spawn his worse nightmare should he speak it aloud. What could draw the fear of one such as the chancellor, lure the silence of world governments, and draw the fantasies of a marine biologist? What, indeed?
