In the spectrum of the young bipolar planetary nebula M2-9, we detected the He II Raman scattered feature at 6545 Å. However, in the same spectrum the He II emission lines at 6527 Å and 6560 Å are absent, which implies that the He II emission region is hidden from our line of sight and that the H I scattering region is pretty much extended not to be obscured entirely. We perform photoionization computations to estimate the physical size of the He II emission line region ≲ 1015 cm in the presence of hot luminous star with T ≳ 105 K and L ≲ 103L⊙.
