Having said that, she prepared to go upstairs.
"Hey—" Rowdy Brightwill blocked her path anxiously.
"What," she raised an eyebrow, Flossie Wright looked at him in confusion, "is there something else?"
Rowdy Brightwill let out two dejected words.
Flossie Wright, when she didn’t want to talk to someone, always managed to render the other person speechless with just a few words.
She originally wanted to walk past him, but upon catching sight of Rowdy Brightwill’s disheartened demeanor, Flossie Wright hesitated for a moment before adding, "Take care."
"Eh?" Surprised, Rowdy Brightwill quickly caught on and a radiant smile lit up his face, "I will!"
Flossie Wright looked at him with a bit of a headache.
This guy—
𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
Really wasn’t easy to handle!
It seemed that since Flossie Wright had taken the initiative to talk to him, Rowdy Brightwill then kept her a bit longer with some conversation, and considering he would be leaving for over two months, she let him, staying downstairs for a while longer.
After saying goodbye to Rowdy Brightwill and going upstairs, Flossie Wright heard discussions in the corridor, including overhearing some talk in the dormitories on the third floor as she passed by—all of it related to the convoy mission the next day.
Unfortunately, the discussions were about it, but the convoy mission had basically nothing to do with them.
So, all Flossie Wright heard was helplessness.
There was nothing they could do as female soldiers; the opportunities they could control were pitifully few.
Flossie Wright didn’t listen closely, instead, she entered her own dormitory, unconcerned with the matter.
The next day.
Rowdy Brightwill, Austin Shepherd, Drake Easton, Nathan Foster, and a group of others set off for the convoy mission. All the military personnel left at the Base donned their white navy uniforms to see them off.
A convoy mission was a serious and honorable affair, something any soldier standing on the deck could take pride in.
It was Flossie Wright’s first time witnessing such a scene.
On the ships of the convoy, all the soldiers dressed in white uniforms stood dignified and solemn, saluting in unison towards the people on the coast. Those rows of white were like a defensive line shielding everything from outside attacks.
That was their purpose for existing.
The honor of a soldier, the pride of a soldier, the mission of a soldier.
They were naval forces, meant to stand on the deck, protecting the coastlines of their homeland.
That was the first time Flossie Wright truly saluted as a soldier.
For those brothers setting sail!
She would never have such an opportunity!
And before all the ships had left, Ella Pemberton received an urgent mission notification—
Rescue for capsized fishermen!
This mission signified that it was time for them to leave.
After notifying the leadership, Ella Pemberton led the Forces to leave the scene ahead of time.
Human life was most important!
However, on this occasion, Flossie Wright and Jessie Grain still hardly took part in the rescue.
Inside the Base’s Shooting Range.
Flossie Wright and Jessie Grain held sniper rifles and exchanged glances.
"Is this line of work any use?"
Looking helplessly at Flossie Wright, Jessie Grain gestured with the gun in her hand.
Although she knew that such tasks were indeed not their turn, as military personnel, constant training was really tedious; exercises and missions were the most exciting for them, and now reluctantly watching others go on missions truly made them envious.
In fact, Jessie Grain had gone on more missions in her previous Forces than she does now.
"It’s useful."
Flossie Wright lifted the gun, aiming at the target a kilometer away.
Her lips curled upwards.
Having been on many missions, she no longer found training tedious. Moreover, not strong enough herself, she would rather spend this time advancing on her road forward if there was still room for her to grow stronger.
