Unexpectedly—
The reason was completely unforeseen.
Excelling academically and once capable of becoming a vanguard like Eddy Codalt, she ended her military career due to an unexpected sacrifice.
Mason Nixon could easily imagine the amount of pressure and pain that girl endured.
Ordinary students like them would rarely experience things like her.
𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
For so long, Mason’s pride got the better of him, always thinking that liking Janice Wood was an honor for her, but now he realized—
He was completely unworthy of her.
Flossie Wright’s plan ended here.
The main purpose of her efforts was to stop Mason from pestering Janice.
Janice wasn’t good at handling these things.
So, she lent a little help to eliminate the possibility of Mason’s harassment.
Along the way, she also solved the trouble with Quinn Milton and the rumors.
Though Janice was mild-mannered, she wasn’t incapable; she could handle these troublesome matters on her own.
Flossie didn’t worry about the things she would face next.
Having settled this matter, Flossie returned to regular training.
The next morning, because Flossie had asked Glenn Hutchinson for two days, she still finished training an hour early.
At the same time, she noticed that Joshua Bailey was noticeably easing up on a few of the Frogmen, allowing them to pass all their training smoothly.
"Got nothing to do?"
During a training supervision gap, Joshua Bailey approached Flossie with a beaming smile.
Flossie glanced at him casually.
"Go on," he patted her shoulder, smiling as he instructed, "go see off the old comrades."
Flossie narrowed her eyes.
"Don’t worry, it’s the Captain’s orders," Joshua said, rubbing his hands, "some things can’t be explained away; just show them instead. It’s absurd for anyone to tarnish our military’s reputation!"
Thus, Flossie chuckled softly and shrugged.
Leaving Joshua, Flossie waved, gathering some familiar faces.
Belinda Nichols, Iris Dukes, Rowdy Brightwill, Sandy Cruz.
Plus, seemingly forced over by Rowdy, but actually willingly, Jessie Grain and Mariana Buck.
Six people, plus Flossie.
They left the Training Ground shoulder to shoulder.
The sky was overcast, with snowflakes gently drifting down, adding specks of brilliance to the monotonous sky.
Joshua stood in place, watching them leave from afar.
In his eyes, gradually, there appeared a hint of a smile.
A real soldier, at the very least, deserves a formal farewell.
He had already heard Willie Ash speak about Janice and Winsley Scott.
In just an hour.
The snowflakes fell larger and larger.
This was the first snowfall since spring in this city.
Many students from places in the south where snow never falls were thrilled by this, with a youthful exuberance pervading the campus.
Accompanied by the dancing snowflakes.
This afternoon, Medical College students finished their internships and were preparing to leave en masse under the guidance of their teachers.
Janice, having no gap in her schedule, couldn’t find time to visit Flossie at the Training Ground and left with the crowd, feeling despondent.
The Military Academy wasn’t so easy to enter and exit.
Flossie wouldn’t be staying there for long either.
She didn’t know when she’d see her next.
Since last night, she heard the students’ attitudes began to shift, someone seemed to be clarifying her rumors, and a few friends who had gradually distanced themselves started talking to her again.
