As a result of strict training, their actions were quicker than their brain’s reactions upon hearing commands.
Therefore, it took Rowdy Brightwill a few seconds to react.
The Captain had to make a show of it, to let Captain Chen save face!
However, they had no way to deal with Flossie Wright, so the only option was for Rowdy Brightwill to step up.
"It’s my fault!"
Immediately, Rowdy Brightwill raised his voice in a firm and powerful tone.
"Running track, fifty laps!"
After responding, Rowdy Brightwill immediately made a right turn and jogged out of the door.
Destination: running track.
From start to finish, Drake Easton, who watched in silence, frowned slightly after seeing this situation. After hesitating for a moment, he followed suit.
In the office, only Bard Walker, Flossie Wright, Austin Shepherd, and the Brigadier—four people—remained.
It suddenly felt much emptier.
After a while,
"Reporting!"
A crisp and clear voice suddenly rang out.
It was Flossie Wright.
She turned around, facing the Brigadier with an indifferent expression.
Her "reporting" caught people off guard, even the Brigadier was startled, but his customarily stern face did not show it.
"What is it?"
The Brigadier’s demeanor became much more amiable.
Facing an excellent soldier, no one could be displeased, and naturally, their attitude would be favorable.
"I would like to request leave," Flossie paused before adding, "for tomorrow."
Beside her, Bard Walker’s expression changed again and again.

This girl sure has guts!
He did not agree in the afternoon, but now, she went straight to the Brigadier.
She really skipped quite a few ranks!
At the same time, Austin Shepherd, on the other hand, couldn’t help but stroke his chin, unwittingly beginning to reflect.
Logically, Flossie should have asked him for leave, and now...
Did he show any sign of, um, not granting leave to Flossie?
Pausing briefly, the Brigadier uttered the two words very seriously.
It wasn’t that he had never approved leave before, but he had never been approached by a new recruit for it.
Still, as the saying goes, a good soldier, uh, deserves some special treatment!
"Private matters."
This time, Flossie deliberated and didn’t speak as directly.
She had promised Perry Reed a day, and considering he had done her a big favor this time, she might as well take the chance to clear her schedule.
"Can’t say?" The Brigadier frowned and asked.
"Can’t say!" came the resolute reply.
"Thank you, Brigadier!"
A smile flickered across Flossie Wright’s eyes as she raised her eyebrows.
Now, Bard Walker really wanted to writhe with frustration.
He had been fussing over her all day long, holding back his irritation inside. Just as he thought he could reclaim some ground on the "leave" issue, Flossie Wright resolved it with ease.
If they indulged her like this, her staying at the East Sea Fleet would lead to unruliness!
The leave was approved.
Flossie Wright left.
She did not return to the dormitory.
Having descended the stairs, Flossie walked a distance before spotting the open running track.
In the sparse crowd, she immediately noticed Rowdy Brightwill’s figure.
As she remembered, Rowdy Brightwill was very popular.
Be it in elementary, middle, high school, or even college, he was always the center of attention, understanding social relationships, never annoying anyone, with an outgoing personality, good temperament, considerate, and empathic.
