Let's Get Married Chapter 551: Rescue in Progress

On the other side, with that tiny mineral water bottle as a clue, the police in Country Y do the
investigation with the help of high-techs. Finally, they succeed. Two days later, a military drone
captures some images inside the forest. Although the images transmitted from a distance are
somewhat blurry, now they get a general picture.

"At the right of the river locates two cabins. One of them is facing south, and the other facing north. The
latter is bigger, so there are more people guarding there. As you see, there are eight men from this
view. But we haven't known whether there are more people lurking around. Six men guard the smaller
one. Most of them are locals from Country Y, and have guns on them. Among them, one seems to be a
Chinese, judged by his appearance. His arm is injured, and he gets in and out of the cabins the most
frequently every day," a police officer explains the pictures in detail.

Rex frowns and asks, "Where's Hawk?"

"That's he." The police officer points at the half figure popping from a cabin in a picture and continues,
"It's somewhat blurry, but that should be him. The appearance of a Chinese-British hybrid is
conspicuous among the locals from Country Y."

"What about Lily?"

"The drone is not taking photos all the time, since we are afraid that it would be discovered. Maybe
Miss Lily didn't leave the house when the drone worked." In other words, Lily is not in these pictures.

These days, Rex feels like his heart being suspended in midair. While he is staring at the half figure in
the picture, he thinks of that video tape of two intertwining figures, which keeps him sensitive and sad
all the time.

After getting this breakthrough, all the police gather in the meeting room to discuss the following steps.
The captain in charge of this rescue is sharp as a tack. He is experienced in raids. Sticking a few



satellite maps and layout maps of the forest onto the blackboard, he says, "Since we have known
where our target is, and our own people have been deployed at the foot of the mountain, there is no
need to delay any longer. I will ask for the permission of the superiors to set out as soon as possible.
Once I get it, we will launch an ambush. You guys, get ready for that."

"Yes!"

All the police officers respond in a loud voice. The vibe is getting tense. Everyone knows what Hawk is
like, and the hostage is in his hand. This mission is extremely dangerous. No one knows what will
happen in the next second.

"As a civil servant, you must ensure the safety of the hostage. There are only two objectives of this
mission. One is to rescue the hostage, and the other is to arrest the criminals! Protecting a precious life
is the utmost, so this is also the key of this operation."

"Got it!"

As a hostage, Lily has persisted for so long. If she accidentally dies during the operation, it would be
worse than a failure. Even they themselves couldn't accept it.

Rex sits at one side listening. From the day he got to Country Y until today, he has participated in every
section of this operation. He has been on tenterhooks during these days, and his anger and loss of
control at the beginning has turned into a conviction that he must save her.

He is convinced that Lily must be waiting for him.

That inconspicuous mineral water bottle gives him a glimmer of hope. His only wish is that Lily is alive
waiting for him!



As soon as the captain reports that they have known the location of the criminal suspects, the superiors
instruct the operation team to take actions as soon as possible and do their utmost to ensure the
success of the mission. They can’t fail as how it was last time.

After getting the permission, captains of all operation teams sit together to discuss the plan of this
operation. They refine the prepared contents of the first plan and make a second one. They make sure
that all the details are perfect and they will not make any mistakes.

"There will be a heavy rain tomorrow night," a police officer reports to the captain.

The captain doesn't feel upset and retreat. Instead, he becomes extremely excited. "Then we'll set out
tomorrow night. In such a forest, the rainstorm is the best chance for us to launch a surprise attack.
The sound of rain will offer the best protection. To a certain extent, the rain can disturb our enemy's
minds and make them reveal their weaknesses."

After everything is settled, all the police are still staying in the meeting room for a long time. They look
at each other. Other than determination, there is also some inexplicable emotion in their eyes.

Rex understands what it is, because such an emotion has tortured him for over half a month.

He pushes his chair back and stands up to look at the people present. "I know what you're thinking,
and I'm clear that most of you have your own family."

As soon as he finishes speaking, a dozen policemen lower their heads, feeling in a dilemma, as if they
are embarrassed to be seen through by Rex.

"Tomorrow's mission will be a fierce battle. Hawk is not easy to deal with. I believe you all know this
better than me. But as a husband of the hostage and the lawyer in charge of the legal aspects of this
case, I beg you to complete this ambush and rescue my wife as smoothly as possible."



He looks at everyone with his dark eyes. After working with them for so many days, he can call
everyone by their names. He is not a cold-blooded animal. He also has feelings. He knows there will be
someone who will sacrifice himself in such an operation. It can say that he is a selfish man or
something else, but he has no other way.

Rex lowers his eyes and tightly clenches his hands. After pondering for a moment, he swallows his
pride and slowly bends down his waist, bowing deeply. "Please."

Rex is always a strict and cold man in everyone's memory. But now he acts so humble, which makes
everyone sad.

The captain hurriedly helps him up. "Mr. Rex, don't mention it. We are police officers. This is what we
should do."

They have no way to retreat, because they are police officers. As civil servants, they must abandon
their personal emotions to protect every single citizen. They must complete the tasks from their
superiors no matter what happens. Even if they might die, they must do it without hesitation.

To avoid the embarrassment, the captain asks the police officers to leave the meeting room, leaving
behind something to discuss with Rex.

They sit at the desk. The captain takes out a cigarette from his pocket and hands it to Rex. "Have a
smoke?"

Rex glances at it, which is sold in a very low price in Country Y, only 11 yuan. However, it produces
more smoke than any other kinds. Therefore, only chain-smokers would buy such cigarettes. Beginners
will probably choke when taking puffs of them.



Rex takes it and lights it. He takes a deep puff. The pungent gas goes down his nose and into his
lungs, making him keep his mind clear for a short period of time.

The captain raises his hand and looks at the cigarette in his hand. In the hazy white smoke, a faint
smile appears on his face. "When I participated in my first mission, my superior gave me such a
cigarette. Since then, I was not a captain. I followed him and felt extremely terrified before setting out.
More precisely, I was both excited and nervous. Then he gave me a cigarette. We sat on the stairs at
the office entrance silently. I still remember the way he tossed his cigarette on the ground and
extinguished it with his shoes."

Rex listens quietly and leans his neck against the back of the chair.

"Then he told me—" Speaking of it, the captain's smile fades away, and his eyes are filled with
determination. He continues, "As a policeman, fear of criminals is the most shameful
thing."
