Flossie Wright.
In standard font number four, neatly arranged, appearing inside the table on the screen.
It was the groups that would be announced in a couple of days.
Austin Shepherd frowned tightly, his voice inevitably a bit heavy, "Captain Hutchinson, Flossie Wright will not be participating in this grouping."
Having hesitated to put his thoughts into words, Austin Shepherd suddenly felt he hadn’t hit the main point. He had already discussed Flossie Wright’s situation with Glenn Hutchinson, and he trusted that Glenn knew Flossie wasn’t on the list of those being grouped, so what he wanted to ask was why Glenn had made such a move.
Was it against Flossie Wright’s wishes, wasn’t it?
Glenn released the mouse, leaning slowly against the backrest of his chair, lazily lifting his eyelids. His vision swept over Austin, then landed on the chair next to him.
Even though he was really puzzled, Austin courteously sat down next to Glenn.
"Who said so?"
Without revealing any emotions, Glenn Hutchinson just asked indifferently, looking very mysterious.
After some thinking, Austin Shepherd answered, "She did."
After a brief pause, Glenn casually asked, "Listen to her, or listen to me?"
Austin Shepherd was suddenly speechless.
Of course, he was supposed to listen to him...
No matter what, Flossie Wright was just an ordinary new recruit, and with Glenn’s military rank and privilege, he had enough power to decide her fate. Naturally, he should listen to him on these minor issues.
As someone who had grown up under the flag of his country and was law-abiding, upright, and positive, Austin Shepherd, a model youth who was willing to accept equality, found it hard to accept underhand dealings. Deep down, he still wanted to respect Flossie’s opinion, even if he wanted to keep her among the new recruits for equal training, he had to use a legitimate method. He should have persuaded her step by step. How could he have secretly made such a decision?
So, after hesitating for a while, Austin plucked up his courage and asked, "Even though I’m to listen to you, shouldn’t we discuss it with her first?"
Almost as soon as he had finished speaking, Austin felt a barely perceptible threatening glance sweep over him, directly at his forehead. Glenn looked like he was smiling, but his non-negotiable intention was conveyed clearly.
Austin Shepherd opened his mouth, feeling a bit intimidated. It felt as though some sort of threat was trying to choke back his words. However, he was not ordinary, and despite the threat from Glenn’s sidelong glance, he did not submit but still wanted to clarify things.
Glenn seemed to see that he still wanted to continue to persuade him. He looked up leisurely and asked indifferently, "Do you understand her?"
Thinking about his limited encounters with Flossie Wright, Austin shook his head very straightforwardly, "I don’t."
With a gradually serious expression, Glenn Hutchinson still spoke in an indifferent and slow tone, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing, "I do."
Austin Shepherd’s eyes turned slightly, unsure how to respond.
If it weren’t for the brigadier’s recent order for him to participate in the new recruit training, he would not have been involved in this training at all and definitely would not have recognized the people clearly.
However, he had heard about Flossie Wright from the cooking class delivering food to Glenn Hutchinson.

Even though it should be quite normal for Glenn Hutchinson to say such things, he didn’t know why it always made people think wrongly...
