Let's Get Married novel Chapter 554

Rex only takes a short pistol with him and rushes straight into the forest. He crouches towards the hillside. As he approaches the depths of the forest, he finds it more difficult to see the surroundings clearly. He is only able to see the white mist. He is shrouded in mist, with visibility less than 20 meters.

It is terrible to walk in the forest with complicated-terrain mountains in mist. A pouring rain is even better than the mist.

Rex is completely alone. He doesn’t take any equipment for communication with him, and takes actions entirely through his own senses and intuition.

Along the way, his clothes almost have been wet. He walks and leans against thick trees. With it, on the one hand, he could cover himself better. On the other hand, he uses the trees as a reference to clarify the direction.

About 10 minutes later, the sound of water rushes out of his ears. It means that he has already been close to the river.

Knowing it, Rex loads his pistol and slows down. He looks around vigilantly without missing any sound. Even the moving leaves could attract his absolute attention.

In a real combat, people are always exceptionally sensitive to the changes in their surroundings. Rex is no exception. The moment he reaches the center of the forest, the air falls into dead silence. He turns around and leans against a thick trunk. He picks up a thumb-sized stone from his feet and throws it into the bush that is over a meter tall.

...

...

Two low sounds ring out in Rex’s ears. He is familiar with such sounds, which are made by a pistol of muffler. Even if the similar sounds ring out ten thousand times in his ears, he would never mishear.

Someone is in that bush!

Rex leans against the trunk to cover his body as he focuses on the movement in the bush. Judging by the position and size of it, there could only be one or two people hiding there. He should quietly move towards that bush, quickly from one tree to the next one. It will take him two seconds to make it with his highest speed.

Rex takes a deep breath and staggers over.

The moment he leaves the trunk, the mud beneath his feet is shot by a bullet. The mud even splashes onto the hem of his trousers. If he had left a second later, his feet would have been shot and broken by that bullet.

Rex's gaze becomes sharp. The distance is enough. There are only eight bullets in his pistol. Without hesitation, he raises his pistol and fires two shots at the bush.

It is not surprising that he missed, but his shots could force the opponent out. Once the other party’s location is known, he would no longer be able to escape.

Sure enough, in the next second, a person rolls out of the bush neatly. He directly rolls behind a large rock. Unfortunately, apart from the main part, the rock could not cover his entire body.

But the exposed corner of the black clothes causes Rex to stop pulling the trigger.

"Who's that?" he asks in a low voice.

When the other party hears the voice, he freezes for a moment before revealing half of his body. Seeing Rex standing behind a tree, he is shocked and asks, "Why are you here?"

Rex and the captain gaze at each other. Both heave a sigh of relief inwardly. Then, they get nervous again, especially the captain. The last one he wants to see in this forest is Rex.

They have no time to chat or make clear why Rex is here. They immediately meet up and each of them hides behind a tree. The 1.8-meter-tall men actually don’t make a sound at all.

"Take this." The captain takes out a long gun from his back pocket and throws it at Rex's feet. "There are 15 bullets inside. I don't have enough magazines on me. Do not waste them."
