Belinda Nichols was silent and didn’t speak.
With her teeth clenched, Jocelyn Carrington was helpless.
Since coming to the East Sea Fleet, she had been assigned to the same dormitory as Belinda, with plenty of company due to the crowdedness of the dormitory, she barely interracted with Belinda.
However, Belinda was always alone, which was something she noticed.
It wasn’t that she was reticent, isolated, and introverted but rather she naturally had a cold and aloof personality, and didn’t want to interact with others.
Getting any information from her was almost impossible.
So, she gave up asking.
After a while, out of boredom, Jocelyn Carrington asked again, "Have you found any leads?"
"What are you going to do then?"
"That’s my business."
Taking a deep breath, clenching her teeth, Jocelyn Carrington decided not to upset herself anymore.
Soon after dealing with her injuries, Flossie Wright stood up as if intending to leave.
Jocelyn Carrington pushed Belinda again, stood up, and quickly moved towards Flossie Wright.
"Anything else?"
Seeing their figures, Flossie Wright stopped in her tracks.
"I just want to ask you, how is the progress of your mission?" Jocelyn Carrington asked, deliberately maintaining a certain distance from her.
She was not afraid of Flossie Wright but rather afraid of that dangerous man.
"Haven’t started."
"Then you..."
"Hey." Flossie Wright suddenly called her.
"Do me a favor."
Jocelyn Carrington cautiously asked, "What is it?" while her heart fluttered.
Gazing at her, Flossie Wright said solemnly and simply, "When I disappear for three days and they ask about it, tell them this."
"Disappear... Hey, what the hell?!"
Before she finished her words, Flossie Wright and the others had already left the room.
Jocelyn Carrington stamped her foot anxiously.
Disappear for three days?!
The evidence had to be submitted the day after tomorrow, how would she complete the mission if she disappeared?!
"What happened?"
At this moment, Belinda Nichols approached and asked with furrowed brows.
"She said she’s going to disappear for three days," Jocelyn Carrington grumbled, "What the hell is she trying to do?!"
After a pause, Belinda Nichols said, "Must be something important."
"You’re also defending her?" Jocelyn Carrington gritted her teeth.
"Then you..."
"I’m stating the facts."
In the car.
Perry Reed was always quick in his actions.
The plane tickets had already been booked, for one o’clock this afternoon.
Suddenly assigned a mission, without any preparation, they were taken out of the military district. As a result, Flossie Wright didn’t have her ID card with her.
But it was not a problem with Perry Reed present.
Flossie Wright handed the unloaded gun and the folding knife to Perry Reed.
She signalled him to handle it.
She didn’t want to be invited to the police station for tea because she was carrying these items.
Seeing the pistol, Perry Reed didn’t mind, but cast a close look at the folding knife.
The Trident Folding Knife.
"Glenn Hutchinson’s?" He asked with a suppressed voice and tightly furrowed brows.
Taken aback, Flossie Wright raised an eyebrow, "You know?"
The whirlpool in Perry Reed’s eyes churned as he stared at her, "You don’t remember?"
Flossie Wright didn’t understand.
Does this folding knife have a history?
Apparently reminded of unhappy memories, Perry Reed frowned deeply, "Forget it."
Having said that, he tossed the gun and the knife onto the front passenger seat.
These items couldn’t be taken on the plane, so they would have to be temporarily entrusted to the man with the gold chain.
In any case, F.lossie Wright wouldn’t allow them to be lost.
