If Flossie Wright voluntarily gave up, it was all right.

But he, what reason did he have to forcefully deprive Flossie Wright of her right to persevere?
Therefore, before Flossie Wright backed down, he could do nothing.
He could only follow.
Follow, round and round.
Becca Reyes and Belinda Nichols fell behind the main Forces, they watched Flossie Wright from afar for a while before catching up to the end and entering the cafeteria.
They picked up their plates, got their food, and then found Jessie Grain’s figure, sitting down in the vacant spot across from her.
Jessie Grain was eating when she felt waves of pressure, then she paused slightly before looking up to see two familiar figures sitting down opposite her.
"Is there something up?"
Sticking her chopsticks into the rice, Jessie Grain asked with a smile.
"Nancy Phillips called you and Flossie away, what does she want to do?" Becca Reyes went straight to the point, and then asked, "Why does she run so many laps?"
After thinking for a moment, Jessie Grain didn’t hide anything and straightforwardly said, "We competed, she lost, so she has to run laps."
"Compete in what?"
"Shooting?"
Becca Reyes and Belinda Nichols asked in unison.
Jessie Grain looked at them and nodded directly, "Shooting."
"She lost to you?"
Subconsciously, Becca Reyes raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Clearly, Belinda Nichols was also slightly taken aback but quickly calmed down.
It was indeed possible.
For one, Jessie Grain’s shooting skills were quite good; for another, Flossie Wright was ill today and not in good condition.
If Flossie Wright encountered a skilled opponent and her ability decreased, losing would not be surprising.
"Right," Becca Reyes suddenly seemed a bit irritable as she thought of something, looking intently at Jessie Grain, "She has a fever."
However, upon hearing this, Jessie Grain simply nodded calmly, "Yeah, I know."
And because she knew, she only used seventy percent of her strength.
But that didn’t stop her from beating Flossie Wright.
Becca Reyes grew frustrated, "She’s sick, and you won against her, yet made her run so many laps?"
"She is indeed sick," Jessie Grain agreed, smiling like a spring breeze, "But I wouldn’t let her off because she’s ill, just like a bullet wouldn’t swerve just because you’re good-looking."
Gripping her chopsticks tightly, Becca Reyes gritted her teeth but couldn’t come up with a retort to that "twisted logic".
Thereupon, Becca Reyes narrowed her eyes and took a few more glances at Jessie Grain.
She certainly knew the woman across from her was no simple character.
At a young age, she was a three-bar military officer, definitely not as gentle and calm on the outside, nor as friendly. Moreover, her strength was unfathomable.
She was like a smiling tiger.
Amiable to everyone, seemingly approachable, but in reality, not many dared get close; after all, her methods were anything but soft.
Just like the other night, when she declined Cherry Hamilton with a smile, not even giving her a way out.
And just last night, Becca Reyes watched her every move closely; seemingly kind advice was actually a veiled threat.
This person was definitely not to be trifled with.
Having understood this, Becca Reyes knew that the burden of the punishment Flossie Wright had to run could only be reclaimed by herself later on. Subtly shifting her gaze, she no longer pondered over it, and started eating her food with a natural expression.
Her manner of eating was somewhat crude.
After all, physical activity was draining, and she urgently needed to replenish her energy, but she couldn’t stay as composed and unruffled as Belinda Nichols, Jessie Grain, and their group.
