Bard Walker ran out of words.
He had been through life and death with Captain Glenn Hutchinson, so helping him out would indeed be no problem.
Especially, Flossie Wright’s actions did not violate military discipline.
As she was on a mission and not in the Forces, her actions were unrestricted, as long as she could complete the mission on time, even if others found her traces, they couldn’t punish her.
Yet he knew that what Captain Glenn Hutchinson was implying was not about Flossie Wright completing the mission on time, but rather, in case Flossie Wright delayed action, he would have to step in and help her.
The matter could be settled within the Force. While he might not concern himself with the selection of new recruits, he was still able to put in a word or retain someone if necessary.
With that thought, Bard Walker sighed in somewhat annoyed agreement, "Alright, alright, alright. Whatever she does in Vernon, as long as she can get back by the last day, she won’t be kicked out. Satisfied?"
"Thank you."
Captain Glenn Hutchinson thanked him, then hung up the phone immediately.
On the other end, Bard Walker wanted to vent some complaints, but heard the end call tone, nearly smashing his phone in frustration.
Burning bridges after crossing the river!
Infuriating!
After he hung up, Captain Glenn Hutchinson went to the tent that was centralizing the victims.
Remaining there was Anthony Ward, who worked as a nominal psychological counselor in their Military District hospital, responsible for the mental state of the base staff.
And, here."
Whether it’s victims or soldiers that have experienced an earthquake, they all carry some form of psychological trauma.
Quite normal.
Post-traumatic stress disorder.
Perhaps, the majority of people, after being hurt, will adjust themselves. But there will still be a minority who will suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder, leading to a series of psychological problems.
Anthony Ward is in charge of dealing with these cases.
The medical workforce here is not sufficient, but Anthony Ward has a master’s degree in clinical medicine. If the conditions of treated patients worsen, it won’t be a problem for him to manage. It also saves on manpower arrangement.
Really convenient.
Arriving at the tent, Captain Glenn Hutchinson didn’t pause and went in.
As he entered, he did not see Flossie Wright.
Anthony Ward was comforting a leg amputee, tirelessly and patiently, speaking in a soothing, low voice that provided reassurance.
The young nurse checked each patient carefully, whispering to inquire about their conditions, asking if there was anything they needed.
As for the man soaked to the skin, he was sitting on a chair, legs crossed leisurely, watching the patients lying on the beds with a cold look. His eyes were a little dim, slightly retracted, as if absorbed in thought.
His gaze swept around the room, but he did not find any trace of Flossie Wright.
Captain Glenn Hutchinson hesitant slightly.
In the meantime, Perry Reed, who was looking towards the interior, saw his arrival. He glanced over, and recognizing Captain Glenn Hutchinson, his eyebrows slightly raised but his eyes became increasingly frosty, like a bone-chilling ice.
The dark pupils were full of defiance and danger, completely unrestrained.
He met Perry Reed’s gaze with an equally intense look.
Love rivals meet, adding fuel to the fire.
The tension between them was palpable, filled with an eerie chill that spread through the room.
The nurse’s inquiries and Anthony Ward’s conversation suddenly quieted down.
At that moment..
"These clothes are new. I tend to wear clothes that are a bit big, so I might as well give them to you."
Accompanied by a soft and pleasant voice, two more people entered the tent.
Very quickly, they both stopped.
Flossie Wright had put on a new and dry set of clothes.
Not the athletic denims, but a loose black long sweater, matched with black leggings, and knee-high boots, radiating femininity.
Both stylish and sexy.
Maintaining her casual and nonchalant demeanor, yet very different from her previous efficient and dashing image, it gave off a completely different feeling.
Beside her, the woman military officer wearing a white coat looked surprised and called out, "Captain Hutchinson?"
