Becca Reyes paused, turning her head questioningly.
"Don’t just be reckless. This is the forces, not everyone you encounter will be like me, an instructor."
"Thank you."
After a beat, Becca gratefully acknowledged, her flickering gaze did not lack sincerity.
A twist in the tale.
When one holds a resolution to die, they will always encounter something better than expected.
Upon leaving, Flossie Wright’s tightly clamped hands gently released their grip. Her fingernails dig into her palms, causing sharp pain.
Sigh, she had thought there were going to be no survivors.
The fact that Calvin Ramos and Stuart Weston had a fight did not get around as she had speculated.
Everyone seems to have defaulted to Becca Reyes’s explanation - they were simply just comparing notes.
A perfunctory explanation was enough, the newbies didn’t have the energy to care about anything else. The closer to the end of training, the more they cared about their own results. All other trivial matters were excluded from their considerations.
As for what exactly Becca Reyes and Austin Shepherd discussed, no one asked - not even Calvin Ramos, Stuart Weston, or Flossie Wright.
Three days later.
After the evening training session was over, the newfound training came to a quiet end as well.
Austin Shepherd announced the compatibility index as usual, and then, dismissed them as usual.
Made no comments about their performance.
Unexpectedly, when they heard from Austin Shepherd "There will be no training tomorrow," nobody felt relaxed.
The results would not be announced until tomorrow.
"Where are you going?"
Down the mountain, Belinda Nichols observed Flossie Wright heading in the opposite direction of the dormitory.
"To the kitchen."
Flossie Wright halted, glancing at her without giving an explanation.
Belinda Nichols frowned, puzzled.
"For a midnight snack." Without any pretense, Flossie Wright answered plainly.
"Hmm, are you joining?"
Flossie Wright asked this after a pause.
"No." A decisive refusal.
"As you please."
Flossie Wright shrugged her shoulders, turned around and walked away without trying to persuade her.
Meanwhile, Becca Reyes approached Flossie Wright, her eyebrows slightly raised.
"Let’s go."
So saying, she left with Flossie Wright.
Apparently, they had agreed on this beforehand.
Belinda Nichols stood there for a while, watching them with an expressionless face. But as they were getting farther away, she quickened her pace and followed them.
"Eh, are you joining us?"
Noticing her, Becca Reyes raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile.
Becca Reyes’s impression of Belinda Nichols was simple - reticent, indifferent, and aloof. But since she was Flossie Wright’s partner, Becca treated her quite well.
Meanwhile, Flossie Wright also glanced at Belinda Nichols.
Belinda Nichols’s cold facial expression remained unchanged, "Together." She said deliberately, pausing after each word.
"Let’s go then."
Nodding her head, Becca Reyes agreed without any objection.
But this time, a hint of surprise crossed Belinda’s face at her decisive response.
Becca didn’t notice, but Flossie Wright caught it.
"Let’s go."
Simply saying a word to Belinda Nichols, Flossie Wright didn’t continue the conversation.
Thus, Belinda Nichols walked along with them, though she kept a larger distance as compared to the gap between Flossie Wright and Becca Reyes.
In the crowd heading towards the dormitory, the three of them blatantly headed towards the kitchen.
As Austin Shepherd and Nathan Foster came down the mountain, they saw the fleeting figures of the three women.
