In the lowland, Lily is imprisoned in front of Hawk, her hands behind her back. Hawk stretches out his
arm from the side of her face. He holds the gun straight with his arm, without any shaking even he
keeps his gesture for more than 10 minutes.
He purposely knocks on the back of Lily's neck with the hilt of his gun. Lily lets out a cry of pain, but
she regrets the moment she yells.
She knows Hawk intentionally stirs up Rex in this way. This is the effect he wants.
After that, no matter how hard Hawk tries to force her, Lily doesn't make any sounds. She fixes her
eyes at the top of the lowland. ‘Fortunately, he doesn't come over, otherwise...’
Then she looks down at where they are. It is a corner of the lowland near the edge. Only people who
walk to the edge could see them. But once Hawk catches sight of them, he would pull the trigger
without hesitation.
Lily's heart is burning with anxiety. She knows that as long as she is in Hawk's hand, Rex's movements
would be restricted. However, she could not free herself from Hawk’s grip. There is still a bomb tied
tightly to her body, which is enough to destroy them.
The air is still and silent. At such a night, after a torrential rain, the dimming water vapor and the mist
interweave together. Every breath and every small movement would be infinitely amplified in this
deathly silent forest.
Everyone keeps silent. Hawk doesn't have any allies, only with Lily as his shield. However, he would
risk Lily's life only as a last resort, and he himself knows the reason behind it.
10 minutes later, Hawk seems to be tired of the endless dull waiting. He raises his hand and fires
another shot. He turns around and looks behind him. The way behind is a half meter higher than the
way ahead. He could make it to escape from there. Of course, the premise is that Rex would not be
able to stop him.
Police officers are all over the mountain, so he has no time to waste and must get rid of Rex as soon as
possible.
Hawk's mind is spinning. He doesn’t feel panicked at all, but even gets calmer. It is not the first time he
has been into such a tribulation. In fact, he has been used to it.
However, when he looks behind again, Lily in his arms suddenly smashes her head into his arm with all
her strength. The muzzle of the gun deviates. Hawk feels extremely nervous. He presses her firmly
against the mud wall in front of him.
Rex hears a knock clearly from the lowland. He stiffens, and gets flustered because he can't see
anything ahead of him.
Lily...
Rex's dense eyebrows are furrowed fiercely. He is so panicked that every hair on his head is almost
going to stand upright. He puts his pistol into the pocket beside his lap and rushes towards the nearest
tree to the lowland.
Once again, the bullet lands at his feet. Finally, he sees the edge of the lowland from this distance.
Without any hesitation, Rex raises his pistol to shoot at the nearest mud of the lowland. He slightly
narrows his eyes and says—
"Hawk, stop resisting. I see you."
The air is quiet. Two minutes later, just as Rex thinks Hawk would not respond, a hoarse voice comes
out from the lowland. "You find me much later than I thought."
As soon as Rex hears him, he looks at the southeast corner of the lowland. After confirming the
location of Hawk, he could move in a larger space. The tall and strong Rex crouches down, his
expression extremely serious and sharp. "You are making useless struggles. Let her go."
"Let her go?" Hawk seems to hear a joke. "She's my best shield."
Hearing this, Rex feels a chill running down his spine. His beloved woman is actually used as a shield!
How could he remain calm?
If it weren't for Lily, he would rush to the edge of the lowland and fight face to face with Hawk.
But now, he has to consider about her safety. What he must do is to try his best to lure Hawk to reveal
himself. At the meanwhile, he must wait for the captain to reach the back of the lowland, so that they
could clearly see the scene in the lowland and deliver a fatal shot to Hawk.
Being clench-jawed and breathing mechanically, Rex tells himself to calm down. At the very least, Lily
is still alive, and she is only 20 meters away from him.
"If you let her go, I won't kill you."
"The police are all over the mountain. If I let her go, maybe I can leave this forest, but I definitely won't
be able to reach the foot of the mountain." Hawk is a cunning man. Ever since the cabin was silently
attacked, he knew what he should do. "You guys are trapping me here today, and this woman is the
last card in my hand. You asked me to let her go? Do you think I’m as brainless as those trash?"
"Watch your mouth!"
Hawk bursts into laughter. He purposely lowers his voice and squeezes out a giggle from his chest. His
voice sounds terrifying. "Have you seen the video I sent to you?"
At the same time, he stuffs a rag into Lily's mouth, making her unable to make a sound.
Video?
'What video? Why don’t I know? Is it related to me or someone else?'
Countless questions flash through her brain. Before she could figure out what Hawk is talking about,
Rex speaks. He says in a tone that Lily has never heard, as if he is going to chew Hawk's entire body
into pieces and swallow him.
"You want her? She's my woman, so you forced her to have sex with you to make me sad?"
Hearing the 'video' mentioned by Hawk, Rex feels his blood all over his body flowing backwards. His
limbs are so cold that they almost freeze. He even doesn't know how he holds back his anger and
pretends to be fine to talk back.
Lily widens her eyes as she looks up in disbelief. Unfortunately, she could not see anything except the
sky.
She wants to tell Rex that she has never been forced to have sex with Hawk. She has never been
violated. She has been desperately defending herself from the rape from beginning to end.
But she can't... Hearing Rex’s voice with forbearing sadness, she is desperate to death. Rex must have
been tormented and beating himself up in the past few days.
Hawk glances at Lily for a moment, but he soon looks away. Again, he looks around vigilantly and
sneers, "Whatever. No matter whether she is your woman, she tastes great. I just wondered why you
like such an ordinary woman. It turns out that she is so enchanting and charming in the bed."
Lily shakes her head with all her might. Her eyes turn red. She turns around and wants to confront
Hawk, but she fails. She keeps blessing inside, 'Don't believe him! Don't believe him...'
Rex is at a loss of words for a moment. Hawk knows he must have been astonished by his words. The
pleasure of revenge gradually ignites in his heart. As if he wants Rex to be more sorrowful, he
continues to make up some details, "Her skin is really fair. Even in such a simple and crude place, her
skin becomes white again after being washed by the river water. Every time she was beneath me, her
voice sounded wonderful, tender, and luring. When we were in the bed, the guys guarding out of the
room couldn't suppress their desire. By the way, once I was not by her side, she slept with lots of
guys..."
His words are incredibly ear-piercing, which sound like the noise of fingernails rubbing against the
glass. Lily knows it is all a lie, but she couldn't help but feel disgusted when hearing these words, let
alone Rex, who knows nothing about it.
Sure enough, as soon as Haw finishes speaking, a few shots ring out in Lily's ears. Rex fires five
consecutive shots!
