Dead Island 2 has a quest type called Lost and Found, which involves you following clues around the game to locate unique weapons across Los Angeles. 

One of the first Lost and Found quests you will come across is called The Clean and Snatch, which tasks you with following the movements of a pool cleaner called Obi to track down a key of his. So, take a look at our 'The Clean and Snatch' guide to see how to finish this quest.

You can start the The Clean and Snatch quest by following the main story into the Beverly Hills area. Once you arrive, follow the O Michael, Where Art Though? quest until you make it to a house with a car that's crashed into the pool. 

From here, you can find a care package in the pool called Obi's Things, along with a note on top called A Parting Gift. Reading this note will cause The Clean and Snatch to begin, tasking you with following the clues to locate Obi and his key.

To start progressing through the quest, you will need to visit the pools located in Beverly Hills to find three journals (marked above) that provide hints toward Obi's location, so you grab Dead Island 2 Obi's key.

For the first journal, you will need to make your way to Michael's house, which can be found down the hill from where you first began The Clean and Snatch. 

You'll need to clear some zombies from the pool first, but then you can find the first journal called Note For Michael.

The second journal can be found in Farouk's house down the hill from where you found the first journal. You can climb into the yard using the truck parked near the wall, but you'll need to clear some zombies afterwards. 

You can then find the second journal, Dave's Phone, on one of the sunbeds by the pool.

For the final journal in Beverly Hills, you will need to head back up the hill to the house in the middle of the area. 

When you arrive, there will be three special infected in the yard to deal with. Once you're clear, head over to the pool where a dead body is sat on the side, and grab Obi's Phone.

With all three journals collected, reading them will provide you with key clues for finding Obi and grabbing his key so you can open Obi's Things. 

We don't know if you need to collect all the journals before you can do the final part of the quest, so it's best to just find them all first. 

Once you're ready to find Obi, you will need to head over to Bel-Air and go to the pool at the Goat Pen house, which you should have already been to a few times.

Once you arrive at the pool, Obi should climb out of the water, and killing him will allow you to grab Obi's key. 

Now travel back to Beverly Hills and visit the pool again to unlock Obi's Things and grab the Officer's Sword.
