"Flossie, when did you get back?"
As soon as Iris Dukes saw Flossie Wright coming over, her eyes sparkled like stars, looking at her brightly.
Thinking for a moment, Flossie replied somewhat perfunctorily, "Just now."
"Is Captain Hutchinson with you?" Iris’s eyes darted as she continued to ask.
Flossie shrugged.
Glenn Hutchinson was locked in the room by her to rest, and before heading out, she handed the key to Joshua Bailey, instructing him to deliver the meals to Glenn Hutchinson’s room.
If there truly was something that needed dealing with, Glenn Hutchinson could leave the room in dozens of ways, but if there weren’t any urgent matters, a single lock was enough to keep him in.
In any case, Flossie wasn’t worried.
"Oh oh." Iris replied twice without further questions, but instead changed the topic, "Flossie, when did you come to West Hare, are you used to the food here..."
In just a couple of sentences, Iris shifted the discussion to food and began talking non-stop.
Since Flossie was idle with nothing to do and understood Iris’s foodie nature, she patiently listened to Iris, occasionally responding.
As for Devina Millet and Chloe Bell, they initially wanted to say a few words to Flossie, but upon hearing Iris transform into a chatterbox, they exchanged a silent glance and awkwardly held back, saying nothing.
In fact, they couldn’t really interject.
Having not seen Flossie for some time, Iris had a bellyful of words to say, but everything she mentioned was related to food.
Thus, the topic flowed continuously until it was their turn to get food.
Flossie, disinterested in choosing, directly opted for a set meal.
No pure white rice, just a little porridge, two pieces of meat, some soybeans, and a steamed bun.
Though it didn’t seem like the most appetizing meal, in a place like this, no one could be picky.
Even Flossie, as a military officer, couldn’t.
And Iris, being a foodie, obediently picked up the meal without a single complaint.
Having received her meal, Iris stuck close to Flossie again. Chloe and Devina stood like wooden stakes on the side, thoroughly bored.
They didn’t even feel a strong urge to converse.
"So boring."
Halfway through eating, Devina blinked and rolled her eyes at Chloe.
"Hey, let me ask you something."
Chloe thought for a moment, moved her eyes, and then leaned closer to Devina.
Devina looked at her with curiosity.
"It’s just..." Chloe glanced at Flossie and lowered her voice, "You still can’t forget Captain Hutchinson, but now that Night’s returned, you seem quite happy?"
With a stiff expression, Devina twisted her nose and reluctantly confessed, "Well, she’s Flossie Wright for goodness’ sake."
After saying that, Devina added, "If it were Joelle...I wouldn’t be happy."
She had seen so many rivals, but the only one she admired was Flossie Wright.

Besides, having not seen Flossie for three months, now that she was finally back, it’s not like she could just chase her away, right?!
That would be too unethical!
Especially considering—
Any tricks she tried, in front of Flossie, would just be a futile effort.
Chloe thought for a moment and again asked quietly, "Do we want to tell Night about Joelle and Captain..."
"I don’t care."
Devina mouthed, feeling awkward.
She just didn’t want to interfere, but hadn’t said she’d help Flossie either.
Chloe opened her mouth.
However, before she could finish, the sound of an explosion, "Boom —" interrupted her!
