Chapter 535: Rex Will Go Crazy

Everyone in the office hears the muffled sound of punching, but no one dares to go out to comfort Rex.
It is useless to do so. They know well how much Rex loves his wife. Now that such a thing has
happened, Rex must be in no mood for listening to words of comfort.

"Director, what should we do now?"

"What else can we do? Call in the technical experts and send more people to search. No matter what,
you must find the hostage as soon as possible. Even if you can't find her, you must find out from which
station she leaves!"

"Then the smuggling case..."

Speaking of this case, the director is worried. Rex and Lily come here on a business trip. Unexpectedly,
such an accident happens to Lily. Not only will the leader of J City blame the director, but also no
progress on the case will be made.

"I'll talk to Rex about the case later."

Because of Lily's disappearance, there's an atmosphere of tension in the police station. Rex does not
return to the hotel. He has been staying in the police station all this time. Only does he know how
painful he is. Every minute is as long as a year for him. He cannot find Lily, so his mind is filled with all
sorts of terrible thoughts. Thinking of what may happen to her, he is heartbroken, as if his heart were
fried in a pot of oil.

Rex keeps himself awake at night with worry. His heart is beating at a high rate. Irritable and sensitive
as he is, he overreacts to any unintentional action.

The director has no guts to go home. He has no other choice but to urge his subordinates to search for
Lily.



Finally, at almost noon of the next day, they get news of Lily.

The small office is filled with investigators related to the incident. But other than the speaker, everyone
else is quiet, not even daring to breathe.

"Director, based on Miss Lily's phone records, we have finally confirmed the identity of the kidnapper."
The police officer hands over the documents in his hand. However, before the director receives them,
Rex snatches them.

The director awkwardly retracts his hand. "You can continue."

"The kidnapper is named Hawk, who is a Chinese-British mixed-race. There are very few records of his
childhood. According to the information available, this man has been living in Southeast Asia. When he
was 20 years old, he started smuggling. He is 32 years old now, and he has been working in this
industry for more than 10 years. He is deeply rooted there and is also the boss of the criminals involved
in this case."

The policeman's voice echoes in the quiet office. As Rex listens, he looks angrier. If that is the case,
Hawk must be a cruel man. Hawk runs illegal business in Southeast Asia, so he definitely disregards
other people's life. However, Lily is in his hands....

Rex closes his eyes and doesn't dare to think about it. Only in this way can he remain calm.

"Where is he now?"

The policeman swallows his saliva. He is intimidated by Rex's domineering aura. After a few seconds,
the officer answers in fear. "We haven't found him. He has left with a cargo ship at the harbor."

Policemen have taken the airport and the station into consideration, expect the port.



There are countless ships of different types entering and exiting the customs every day. It's quite
difficult to check them.

Hawk must know it. With more than ten years of experience of smuggling, Hawk knows very well how
to quietly ship people out of the country.

However, once Lily is taken abroad, it won't be so easy to find her.

The director frowns and says, "Continue to investigate, and contact the police of Country Y to
cooperate with the investigation. If this matter cannot be resolved successfully, it will escalate into a
diplomatic incident. I will report personally and put pressure on them!"

"Yes!"

"How long will it take?" Rex's hoarse voice sounds.

"Mr. Rex, we can’t...."

The director raises his hand and interrupts the officer. Then he walks over to Rex and assures him.
"Within five days, I will definitely give you an explanation."

No one speaks, and the entire room falls into a deathly silence.

"Three days." Rex looks up and the corners of his mouth tremble slightly because of the intense
emotions. "I will give you three days at most. If you can't find Lily, I'll do it myself."

...

Very quickly, domestic police come into contact with their counterparts of Country Y. A series of
inspections has begun. Hawk is good at protecting himself from being caught by the police, and he



never settles down. Meanwhile, he has good local connections. Some organizations are willing to
protect him. Therefore, police need to locate a general range and then search carefully.

Hawk hears the news on the same day. Bagot is worried that Hawk will cause sensitive problems,
which will lead to more damage. But Hawk is in a good mood after hearing it.

Bagot is puzzled by his attitude. "Hawk, what do you think?"

"I think I'm going to win this time."

"To win?"

"Right." He looks excited, like a leopard that hasn't eaten for a long time sees a little deer dripping with
blood. "Rex thinks he has won, but he has never expected that he will lose what he wants the most."

Bagot cannot understand what Hawk means. He always finds it difficult to understand Hawk, who rarely
makes wrong decisions. "Then what should we do now? The police have already taken actions, so we
can't just sit still without doing anything."

"Three days later, give them some clues and let them find this place. After all, we need to take away
those poppies."

However, a new method will be employed to ship them away.

Bagot nods. "I will give orders."

"After three days, we will move to the border. That is a backwater with limited information accessible. It
will take Rex at least ten days to find us."

"But are we going to keep hiding like this?"



Hawk plays with the saber beside him with a disdainful smile. "Bagot, do you know what they are most
afraid of now?"

Bagot ponders for a moment. "The engagement with us?"

"No." Hawk walks to the window and looks at the field outside, finding Lily is standing under the eaves
and looking into the distance at edge of the field. "They are afraid of finding nothing."

As Hawk finishes, Lily turns around, as if she can sense the cold gaze behind her. Her eyes carry
lingering fear. The moment she sees Hawk, she rushes into the room.

With a smile, Hawk inserts his saber into the scabbard. "We should attack our enemy at his most
vulnerable moment. We are not stalling for time but running out of their patience and hope. After half a
month, Rex will definitely go crazy. At that time, it will be too late for us to take
action."
