"Count me in." Dallion Collins said almost without any hesitation.
Glenn Hutchinson glanced at him.
At this moment, Dixon Garrison rushed in from the door, hurriedly saying, "Captain, Perry Reed has sent a message."
Glenn Hutchinson and Dallion Collins both turned their eyes to him.
"He said that tomorrow afternoon, outside the Red Revolutionary Army’s campsite, we’ll meet Flossie Wright. Daisy Deacon will bring her out, and if we don’t go..." Dixon Garrison hesitated for a moment, finally speaking honestly under Glenn Hutchinson’s pressure, "then he will take her away."
The room temperature suddenly dropped, and in that instant, Dallion Collins and Dixon Garrison exchanged a look, both seeing a trace of strangeness in each other’s eyes.
A moment later, Glenn Hutchinson spoke again, "What about Ice?"
He was referring to Belinda Nichols’ matter.
Belinda Nichols’ remains had already been retrieved, but were burned in the flames... So Glenn Hutchinson gave the order, prohibiting anyone from seeing her, but allowed Ice to spend half an hour with her.
Apart from Glenn Hutchinson and Flossie Wright, no one else knew about Ice’s relationship with Belinda Nichols, but Glenn Hutchinson’s exception made others vaguely guess something, so they didn’t disturb them.
"She’s gone," Dixon Garrison’s voice suddenly became cautious, "She said we should... treat her better."
Glenn Hutchinson responded indifferently.
Belinda Nichols was a soldier he brought out, but more than that, she was Flossie Wright’s friend.
Glenn Hutchinson didn’t even know how to explain this matter to Flossie Wright.
That night, Glenn Hutchinson gathered a few people to discuss the task allocation for the next day.
In Aaron Doom, as long as Glenn Hutchinson gave a command, everyone was willing to follow him into battle, even if it meant going to their deaths willingly, but Glenn Hutchinson had to choose the most suitable people. In the end, he picked Dallion Collins, Sandy Cruz, Joshua Bailey, and Jude Marsh.
Their support was limited. Glenn Hutchinson could obtain certain equipment outside the military, but it wasn’t as complete as what the military provided.
However, their actions would not be a problem.
The night was pitch black.
Daisy Deacon walked down the corridor at an unhurried pace. If it weren’t for the darkness of the night, someone might really think she was out for a stroll.
Though it was a wealthy campsite, and the accommodations in this country were considered luxurious, in Daisy Deacon’s eyes, it was a wasteland, the same desolate ruin everywhere. Even red-brick houses were rare, and looking around, there were only mud-brick houses, the tallest barely being two-story buildings.
To Daisy Deacon, the buildings in front of her were not far from a slum.
She clapped her hands and continued to walk forward slowly, but soon, someone blocked her path.
Leading the group was Gavin, followed by several burly men.
Daisy Deacon then stopped, crossed her arms, and leisurely looked Gavin up and down.
The corridor was lit by a few lights, but the wattage was low, and the light was dim and hazy. However, Gavin’s handsome face and mischievous aura could still be clearly felt.
Daisy Deacon smiled at the corner of her mouth and asked quite casually, "What’s this about?"
"So late and still not sleeping?" Gavin stared at her, with a few hidden hints of aggression in his eyebrows.
Clearly, the "interrogation" of Flossie Wright moments ago hadn’t satisfied him.
"Just strolling," Daisy Deacon squinted her eyes and said with a faint smile, "Thinking about the future."
