Let's Get Married

Rex peers at Lily on the bed. She lies there on her stomach. The quilt doesn't cover her upper body, which is wrapped around with bandages. The white bandages are bloodstained. It is shocking. Her long, soft hair has been cut to two inches short. Her big eyes, which were as bright as stars, are now tightly closed. If it wasn't for the steam on the oxygen mask, Rex can't be able to see that Lily on the bed is still alive.

Rex stands at the head of the bed. He is so depressed that the atmosphere is filled with his depression.

After a long silence, the door to the ward is pushed open again. The doctor in charge of Lily's treatment comes in.

"Officer..."

Just as the doctor is about to say something, the captain raises his hand and stop the doctor. The captain frowns and winks at the doctor to signal him not to say anything.

Rex doesn't seem to notice the others' existence. He stares at Lily on the bed for a long time with a gloomy face. Most of the time, he only looks at Lily's face, and he dares not to look at the body under her neck. He is afraid that he will lose control of his emotions if he looks at the bandages

It is a long time before he can say something in a hoarse and cold voice. "How is she?" he asks about Lily's condition with concern as well as fear of hearing something.

The doctor is shocked by Rex's terrifying aura. He raises his hand to wipe the cold sweat off his forehead. "To be honest, it's not looking good. At the time of the explosion, the patient had thrown the bomb away, but there are still quite a few fragments that pierced into her body along with the shock wave. We have just removed the fragments. However, I'm not sure if her wounds may be inflamed. As for the internal organs, there are no major problems for the time being. There is edema in the lungs. And her brain is impacted, but not very serious. The main issue is that she is badly burned..."

"..."

Of all the illnesses, burns are the most serious test of the endurance of both patients and their families.

bear it. He can't help but comfort Rex, "Actually, when the explosion happened, the patient did well. Judging from the location of her injuries, she had protected her head. Therefore, the degree of injury to her face and neck is very low. Furthermore, she laid down on her stomach on the ground, so the burns on
