Since the item was left by her predecessor, Flossie Wright could only deliver it herself, and it was just in time for Rowdy Brightwill’s birthday, otherwise it would be odd to give such a gift for no particular reason...
"Let’s go."
After putting away the jade pendant and closing the wooden box, Flossie Wright tucked it into her coat pocket.
Belinda Nichols had already donned her Duckbill Cap and, seeing that Flossie Wright was ready, didn’t say much and followed her out.
Rowdy Brightwill was well-liked.
It was evident from his birthday party.
Usually, within a quarter of an hour, most people would have left the cafeteria, except for the odd ones who were unusually slow eaters, most of them would be gone.
But today was different, when Flossie Wright and Belinda Nichols arrived at the cafeteria, it was already past six o’clock, and it was still bustling with activity.
Whether male or female soldiers, as long as they knew Rowdy Brightwill, they were basically all here.
Even the squads from the neighboring units had two squad leaders and a platoon leader coming over to join the fun.
The cooking class, upon their request, prepared a special feast in the kitchen, with chicken, duck, fish, and meat all laid out.
If it had been the weekend, they would probably have brought in several cases of beer too.
As for Rowdy Brightwill, he was like the star that everyone crowded around, becoming the center of attention.
He was all smiles, happily chatting with the people around him.
"Let’s go get some food first."
Having taken a look from afar, Flossie Wright said to Belinda Nichols.
Belinda Nichols responded.
Both of them went to get plates of food and, seeing Rowdy Brightwill still surrounded by people, they had no choice but to eat their meal in a corner first.
No sooner had they eaten for a few minutes, when they looked again, Rowdy Brightwill had disappeared.
"That kid..."
After scanning around and still not finding him, Flossie Wright rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.
Raising her hand, Flossie Wright casually pulled over someone walking by and directly brought him in front of her seat.
"What’s up, if you have something to say, say it nicely, there’s no need for rough handling."
The man Flossie Wright had grabbed was a soldier, seemingly a former official team member. Flossie Wright found him unfamiliar, but he had heard of her. Being forcefully dragged over, he was obviously unhappy.
Yet, he didn’t dare to provoke her.
"Where’s Rowdy Brightwill?" Flossie Wright asked, lifting her eyes.
"Rowdy Brightwill?" After listening carefully, the man finally understood what she was asking and leaned in close to her, loudly saying, "Nancy Phillips pulled him away, seems like they went in the direction of the training field."
Already in a noisy environment that made her ears uncomfortable, the man’s shout directly into her ear turned Flossie Wright’s face a shade darker.

The fingers clutching the man’s collar tightened slightly, Flossie Wright’s brow furrowed as she lifted her eyes, catching the fleeting schadenfreude in his expression, her gaze turned fierce, and she abruptly pulled him closer to her.
The man didn’t expect her to react like this, and suddenly lost his balance, nearly falling face first onto her.
"Veteran Soldiers, be careful," Flossie Wright narrowed her eyes, a sinister smile crossing her eyes, "don’t fall into my hands."
Wrapped by that thinly veiled threat, the Veteran Soldier froze, his eyes widening slightly, feeling a chill enveloping his entire body.
When he glanced again, Flossie Wright had already let him go.
"Let’s go."
Standing up, Flossie Wright gestured to Belinda Nichols with a lift of her eyebrows.
This place was too noisy, and Flossie Wright, having gotten used to quiet over the past three months, was quite irritable with such tumult. Especially since this commotion was irrelevant to them, it was best to finish their business and leave.
Since Rowdy Brightwill had gone to the training field, that’s where they would go to find him.
Belinda Nichols nodded, took the bag, and followed Flossie Wright toward the training field.
