It’s always the last place you look, because you’d need to have lost your mind to keep looking after you’d found it. This is true even if you find it the first place you look. A big part of the issue is too readily discounting or assuming where it isn’t too early. It’s often better to methodically search sections and areas at a time in a thorough process of elimination even of places you know it isn’t, just as a matter of practicality, and so the process of elimination is actually fully eliminating possibilities, and not just confirming biases.
