Let's Get Married novel Chapter 548

On the tenth day that Lily goes missing, news finally comes after being silent for a long time.

"Captain! We find a water bottle in the lower reaches of a river!"

"What do you find?"

"Water bottle! Plastic water bottle!"

The leader immediately says, "Bring it over and let's take a look."

The policeman takes the water bottle in the bag out. The bottle has already turned yellow, and the advertisement and LOGO on the bottle body are unclear to see. However, from the bottle design, it is very common in Country Y.

The leader looks at the bottle carefully with white gloves. Nothing is unusual. Although the area is sparsely populated, some adventure lovers may come here for expedition. They bring the water with them and throw it away after drinking it.

This bottle only means that someone passed by that area.

"Where did you find it in the river?"

"The lower reaches of the forest."

The downstream of the mountain forest is a dense jungle. A vast river lies above the jungle. A dozen kilometers ahead, some people are living there. It is too difficult to get target lock by this bottle. Furthermore, with this water bottle, no one is confident enough to find anything after going to all this trouble on the investigation.

It is a waste of Lily's life to do these useless things.

Just as the leader takes off his gloves and is about to let someone take the bottle away, Rex suddenly takes the gloves and puts them on.

The leader looks at Rex in confusion, "Mr. Rex, what's wrong?"

Rex is silent. He picks the bottle up and looks at it closely. It is clearly just an ordinary abandoned water bottle, but he feels that this water bottle has some relation with Lily.

Everyone is waiting for him quietly. Time passes by. Rex looks at the bottom, the bottle body, and finally, the bottle cap. Just as they think that Rex will find nothing, he suddenly stops.

He puts the bottle back into the evidence bag and carefully looks at the green bottle cap. Two shallow scratches are on the bottom of the bottle cap, which could only be seen under the light.

With the rightward stroke and downward stroke, it's a letter 'L'.

The rightward stroke is deeper. The person must be anxious when she makes these scratches which are in different depths.

"Mr. Rex, what's wrong?"

"Lily!" Rex suddenly says, and his hands holding the bottle cap is trembling, "'L' is her initials."

Hearing this, the leader immediately walks forward to take a look. These two strokes are not clear. He could only recognize them after looking carefully. However, no matter what the strokes are, no one would leave such a boring mark unless it is urgent.

"Great!" The leader calls the officer who found the bottle, "Go to survey it right now! Ask the technicians map out the geological map of the forest. Go to ask the two teams to station at the foot of the mountain. Be careful! It doesn't matter if you're far away. Also, you can use the drone for surveying. You should keep in your kind that you must be careful. You must not be discovered. Don't alert them!"

"Got it!"

Rex looks at the small bottle cap he holds. He is excited and says in a hoarse voice, "Can I have this bottle cap?"

According to the rules of the bureau, it is impossible, but looking at his appearance, the leader nods his head in agreement, "If you want, then take it."

He has been a policeman for so many years, so he understands this feeling clearly.
