Other cooking staff members remained silent, indicating that they somewhat agreed with Deputy Squad Leader Neal Thompson.
Only later did Becca Reyes realize the situation.
Right, this was the Forces, a place of unity, love, and mutual aid.
Even though the issue between Flossie Wright and Yvonne Watson did not involve them, they still felt that Flossie was somewhat at fault. Because, if she had helped Yvonne Watson, none of this would have happened.
If a member of the cooking class got injured, their Squad Leader would certainly receive criticism.
Yet, all of this could have been avoided.
There might be people supporting Flossie, but no one dared to express it openly.
Becca Reyes suddenly felt a pang of sadness, for the wronged Flossie, and also for those making a big deal out of nothing. Flossie had not done anything wrong, but they needed someone to bear the responsibility, which is why Flossie, who did not "want to help", had to take the blame.
"See the kind of selfishness that is in you two! Look at your behaviour!" Neal Thompson was furious, his chest heaving, and his eyes burning with anger, as if Flossie Wright and Becca Reyes were beyond redemption in his eyes.
"Enough!" The moment he finished speaking, the Squad Leader yelled irritably, casting an annoyed glare at Neal Thompson, "If you’re not satisfied, go and knife Flossie. If you can’t do it, then get lost and do your job!"
He had already been annoyed about Yvonne Watson hurting herself, and now seeing Neal Thompson instigating trouble, he was even more impatient. If Neal weren’t a woman, he would have punished her long ago.
What a piece of work!

Intentionally disrupting the harmony in the squad!
Hotheaded Squad Leader forcing separation, the cooking staff members, who were gathering and feeling uncomfortable, dispersed instantly and started busying themselves with their work, deeply focused, their actions noticeably sharper.
On this side, Neal Thompson was so angry he was about to burst, yet on the other side, after the Squad Leader’s scolding, he didn’t care about Neal anymore. He simply instructed Flossie Wright to "cut the remaining meat", then went about his own business.
"I’m free at the moment, I’ll join you." Becca Reyes patted Flossie Wright’s shoulder, trying to console her.
Flossie Wright raised her eyebrows as though nothing had happened and smiled, "You’re here to mess around?"
Becca Reyes’s face darkened, and she couldn’t help cursing.
Even at such times, she didn’t forget to mock others. Was this fair?
However, regardless of what Flossie Wright said, Becca decided to "mess around" with her. She went over and started cutting a piece of meat, creating an uproar. The noise was so loud that it filled the entire kitchen, becoming an unbearable nuisance. In the end, Flossie couldn’t endure it anymore, she snatched the knife from Becca Reyes and started expertly dual-wielding, effectively doubling the speed of her work.
Becca Reyes stood silently on the side, forced to admit that apart from being a good shot, Flossie’s knife work...
It was top-notch.
After the busy morning, everyone tacitly avoided talking about Yvonne Watson’s incident. After Flossie Wright, Becca Reyes, and the other soldiers finished breakfast, they quickly cleaned up and informed the Squad Leader that they were going to the assembly ground on time.
However, as soon as they left, things got interesting.
"Report! Becca Reyes from the cooking class reporting for duty!"
Becca Reyes was a formal person. She saw Glenn Hutchinson as soon as she walked in, and before anyone could guess what they were there for, she yelled directly.
It was loud and clear.
One third of the people on the drill ground heard her voice.
So, every pair of eyes came over because of the three words "cooking class", and when they saw Flossie Wright and Becca Reyes standing there, everyone was taken aback.
What are they doing?
