Always making people feel inferior.
Flossie Wright lifted her eyelids. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly asked in a cool voice, "Is there anything to eat?"
"Ah," the girl immediately stopped, took a close look at Flossie Wright, then tilted her head to think, and said, "There are noodles and rice dishes, which one would you like?"
"Cold Noodles."
Flossie Wright spoke succinctly.
The girl nodded and quickly left.
Flossie Wright habitually sat in a corner where she could both hide herself and survey the whole place. This was a behavior trained into her, almost instinctive, sometimes only realizing it before she left.
In a week’s time, she had traveled to many places.
As soon as she left the Base, she traveled westward, occasionally helping people out with small favors, catching rides, and earning some pocket money along the way, without really shortchanging herself.
A week later, after roaming about, she arrived at West Town.
Vernon was already in the border area, and West Town was even closer. Drug trafficking organizations from across the Borderland regularly transported large batches from here, making the small town increasingly dilapidated.
However, it’s probably not without significant crackdowns.
At the very least, the environment here is much more peaceful than it used to be.
Flossie Wright drank her Herbal Tea leisurely.
When she was young, her martial arts master lived nearby. When she returned home for summer and winter holidays, she would come here frequently. Thus, she was quite familiar with this area, but it seemed that not much had changed over the years.
The town, which remains unchanged for years, is indeed a kind of sorrow for this place.
The girl’s actions were swift, and before Flossie Wright finished half of her Herbal Tea, the Cold Noodles were served.
"Margaret, one bowl of Herbal Tea."
A rough voice came from outside the door.
"Hey——"
The girl beside her responded sweetly.
That voice sounded somewhat familiar, causing Flossie Wright to pause for a moment and then turn her head to glance in the direction of the door.
The person was in a camouflage military uniform, summer type, wearing only short sleeves, covered in a layer of dust, with a robust build. Seeing that square face, Flossie Wright frowned slightly.
He did seem familiar.
Nigel Ferguson.
When she was a procurement officer in the cooking class, this son of the Vegetable Market Boss, once helped her a lot.
She had just recognized him when Nigel Ferguson, who was initially looking over at Margaret, also recognized Flossie Wright at first glance.
"Flossie Wright?!" With unconcealed delight, Nigel Ferguson’s expression was almost exaggerated, and he walked towards Flossie Wright in large strides, "Weren’t you in Eddy Codalt? How come you’re here?"
He seemed very enthusiastic, but compared to his joy and enthusiasm, he was mostly surprised.
When he left home to join the military, he had heard that Flossie Wright had successfully become a member of Eddy Codalt.
Never did he expect to encounter her here.
"Traveling."
Flossie Wright casually answered while touching her nose.
Subsequently, to prevent Nigel Ferguson’s barrage of questions, Flossie Wright raised an eyebrow and asked, "Serving in the army here?"
"Yeah." Nigel Ferguson awkwardly scratched the back of his head, smiling happily, "I got accidentally assigned to the Borderland as a procurement officer."
Flossie Wright examined him carefully.
Both dusty and sweaty.
She guessed she was not far from this condition when she was a procurement officer.
"Brother Nigel, you know each other?"
Standing aside, Margaret widened her eyes and asked.
This woman—
She looks like she’s in the army too?
