Since she was calm and composed, unwilling to open her heart, whatever he did, indeed, was meaningless.
She was Flossie Wright, not the sort to be charmed or influenced by entanglement or kindness.
So, let it be. After all, he wasn’t hoping for much either.
"Start the car."
Seeing Glenn Hutchinson sit back down, his cool side profile unchanged, it was hard to discern any other expressions.
Flossie Wright was a bit annoyed. She put on a duckbill cap, purposely pulling it down low to cover her brows and eyes.
She pursed her lips, still tasting the metallic flavor of blood inside her mouth.
Her lips were torn.
It hurt a bit.
She sighed, turned her head to look out the window, and slowly closed her eyes in the cool night breeze.
Glenn Hutchinson disappeared the next day.
He came and went without a trace, it couldn’t have been a more fitting description.
His soldiers had already left the base yesterday. After he silently departed, everything about them on this base could only be considered a memory.
Becca Reyes was sentimental. Since they were not in the same forces, the chances of meeting in the future would be incredibly slim.
If it’s concerning military life, they might never meet again.
So, whenever Becca Reyes had the time, she always tried to get some information from Flossie Wright. But Flossie saw right through it, revealing absolutely nothing.
And then, as Chinese New Year’s Eve was approaching, Flossie guarded the vegetable field for three days.
After the daily training, while all the other people were pushing themselves in physical training, she would actually go to the vegetable field and watch over it.
As for guarding the vegetable field, she didn’t actually do much. She would walk around the field once and then sit from dusk until dark.
The plot she had once tilled and planted was now thriving with cabbages and leeks. Patches of green were spreading in the field, swaying with the wind, looking particularly appealing.
"Are you really unwilling to let go?"
Becca Reyes had once asked her meaningfully, but was met with Flossie’s dismissive look.
Not until the fourth day when the cooking class was considering whether to participate in various competitions after New Year, did Flossie Wright, using "training" as an excuse, practice on the training ground until late at night and finally forget about her vegetable field.
Finally, amid the lively atmosphere at the base, New Year’s Eve arrived.
The cooking class bought a lot of flour, vegetables, and meat, distributing them amongst the soldiers at night, not leaving out even the new recruits.
The atmosphere of spending New Year in the Forces was different from home, but it was nonetheless exciting for the new recruits. They gathered in groups, creating such a lively atmosphere.
But when Becca Reyes finished distributing all the flour, she suddenly realized—

Flossie Wright was missing again!
On the coastal beach.
The sky was dark, the rain slight, the tide rising and falling.
Apart from the smack of the seawater, the sound of the drizzle, the roar of the sea breeze, the desolate coast was devoid of all else.
Compared to the lively atmosphere at the base, it was eerily quiet and deserted here.
And, in this blurry night, a figure fully armed suddenly emerged from the sea. After setting foot on the soft sand, she left footprints step by step as she struggled to walk towards the shore.
Water was cascading down her body. The icy cold left Flossie Wright’s face pale. She frowned, forcefully flung the sea fish on the ground. The fish bounced a bit, then went still.
After spending more than two hours in the sea, Flossie Wright was almost drained of her energy.
