“Why you did wait for him a little longer?”
“If you are on his position, I am sure he will wait for you” she continues.
‘” We wait for him, we only leave the place, when it is getting dark”
“We are still here at the foot of the mountain” Jake added.
Jake is the leader of group of hunters, where Dexter belongs. He talks to the mother of Dexter in the cellphone. He reported everything to her. She has the right to know. They have not left the place, they only take a rest in the foot of the mountain, still hoping any moment, Dexter will make a call or show himself to them. Their radio transceiver can work for two days, they hope, they can still make a contact to him, from the forest. They are ready to exert all effort to look for Dexter. They have reported the case to police, and to the local government unit, hoping they can extend a helping hand to them.
“How long you have not seen him” the police investigator asking them.
“Sir, about 24 hours now, we cannot even contact him on the radio” they answered.
“Is he sick, or not feeling well, when you entered the forest?”
“No, Sir he is very lively, he even told us, he will shoot the big deer and bring it home”
“Do you have regular radio contact before he was lost”
“Yes Sir, he radioed us, he has shot a deer and running after it”
“What time is that?”
“Twelve thirty in the afternoon Sir, that is then our last contact to him”
“What time, then you realized, he is lost”
“Sir, by two o clock in the afternoon, when he no longer responds our radio calls”
“We continue looking for him, we only leave the forest when it is getting dark”
