“Drink quickly then let’s continue the journey.”

                       After  half  the  water  bottle  was  finished,  they
               continued walking to the green and lush city park in the
               middle  of  the  city.  Thick  trees  grew,  squirrels  jumped
               between  many  trees,  and  people  were  enjoying  their
               leisure time with family and pets.

                       “Let’s just walk around here.” Said Mep.

                       “What  about  the  clue?  What  did  you  find
