The Ace Sniper Wife-Chapter 1718: They Are the Strongest Weapons (1)
"Flossie, why did you join the military?"
Tears blurred her vision as Sophie Fitch looked at Flossie Wright, a newfound seriousness in her expression. ๐ป๐ณโฏโฏ๐คโฏ๐ท๐ฏโด๐โฏ๐ญ.๐โด๐
She came for that person...
But what about Flossie Wright?
Why did she join the military?
Or rather, why did that group of people join the military?
Sophie Fitch suddenly thought, for those who didnโt come for others, those who came willingly, just like him... what kind of reason compelled them to persist despite everything.
It was so obviously harsh.
It was so obviously exhausting.
Obviously...
There were so many grievances.
The military, the Forces, are they really that appealing?
"To protect the nation."
Flossie Wright looked up at the sky, saying this answer lightly.
"Huh?" Sophie Fitch opened her eyes wide in disbelief.
To protect the nation?
This kind of reason...?
"Donโt believe it?" Flossie Wright asked with a slight raise of her lips.
"A little," Sophie Fitch wiped her tears, straightened her back, and looked at Flossie Wright without blinking, her voice still a bit choked, "You know... protecting the nation, itโs too vague... I think there are many, many reasons, but... I didnโt expect it to be this one."
Sophie Fitch tried her best to express her thoughts.
She didnโt quite believe such a broad reason as protecting the nation.
The mission of being a soldier is to protect the nation, they all knew it, but there are very few who can actually believe it.
Isnโt it?
Many people, after so many years in the Forces, may not even have gone on a single mission.
The country, perhaps, never even needs them.
Even so, do they still protect the nation?
Such an elusive term, coming from Flossie Wrightโs mouth, it was the most surprising for her.
"I donโt believe it either."
With a smile forming at the corners of her lips, Flossie Wright spoke faintly.
Sophie Fitch was slightly taken aback.
Flossie Wright glanced at her.
Asking her this question was really asking the wrong person.
If she had been reborn two months earlier, she might never have joined the Forces, but after being reborn, with this identity, she was simply forced to stay.
Until now, whether she stays or leaves, it doesnโt matter.
She couldnโt answer Sophie Fitch.
The reason she said that was just an instinctive recollection of Glenn Hutchinsonโs previous answerโ
To protect the nation.
Thinking carefully, with Glenn Hutchinsonโs capability, it actually made a lot of sense.
After all, they could do practical work, truly do things that protect the nation.
"Then..."
Sophie Fitch paused, blinking at Flossie Wright.
Completely confused by Flossie Wright.
"I joined the Forces for the same reason as you."
Pressing down the brim of her hat, Flossie Wright said in a low voice.
"Then," Sophie Fitch paused a bit, asking, "now, what about that person?"
"Became friends."
"Ah..."
Sophie Fitch felt both disappointed and regretful.
Flossie Wright slightly lowered her eyes, pondering for a moment.
Pausing, seeing that Flossie Wright didnโt speak further, Sophie Fitch sniffed, cautiously looking at her and said, "Sorry, I shouldnโt have asked that."
"Hmm?" Coming back to her senses, Flossie Wrightโs thoughts returned, turning her head to look at Sophie, "Itโs okay."
"Well," Sophie Fitch pressed her lips together, her brow furrowing with worry, "Flossie, what do you think I should do now?"
After talking with Flossie Wright, although they didnโt quite touch on the main point, her mood inexplicably calmed down.
