Chapter 2: John Constantine (Favorites, Recommendations)
Konstantin thought carefully in his mind about the names he knew, there were so many names that they were like stars in the sky, he couldn't count them, but his memory was very good, he could remember every name, but none of them were Ji Xiaochen.
"I don't know you."
"I know you don't know me, but I know you, and I need you to help me find someone, or maybe he used to be one."
"I'm sorry, please give in, I never help someone I don't know."
Konstantin has quite a character, but Konstantin, who Ji Xiaochen knows well, has never been a warm-hearted and good person.
He leaned against the wall and slowly got up, although he couldn't stand still, but he still wanted to leave.
Ji Xiaochen blocked Konstantin's way.
Konstantin raised his fists, took a cigarette in his mouth and said, "What? Want to fight? ”
Ji Xiaochen shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself that a person who couldn't even beat a few hooligans, did he still want to touch his fist with himself?
Ji Xiaochen stretched out his palm to wrap Konstantin's right fist and twisted it slightly.
"Pain, pain, pain! Let it go! ”
Ji Xiaochen twisted Konstantin in reverse, so painful that he knelt on the ground, screaming, tears were about to flow out, cigarettes fell to the ground, and now his wine was all awake.
"Help me find someone, and I'll let it go."
Ji Xiaochen added a little more force.
"Look for it, if you want to find Superman, I'll help you find it."
Konstantin was also not a hard bone, and with a little threat, he surrendered.
Ji Xiaochen let go of Konstantin.
Konstantin rubbed his hand, which was about to break bones, and asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”
"It's an old friend of yours, once Alec Holland, now a swamp monster."
"Damn! You're looking for that freak, he's not an easy person to get close to, and you've got something in your head. ”
"You don't have to worry about the rest, you just take me to find the swamp monster."
Ji Xiaochen didn't want to tell Konstantin the truth, because Konstantin is a person who likes to play tricks, and he can't fully trust such a person, otherwise he won't know if he is cheated.
Konstantin took out another cigarette and lit it, and turned into the dashing scumbag again, he showed a strange expression, and said: "I can help you find the swamp monster, but I have conditions." ”
Sure enough, even if he was threatened once, Konstantin would not suffer.
"What conditions do you want?"
"I haven't figured it out yet, but before I do, I'd like to have a drink, and those stinky rascals just smashed my bottle."
"Early in the morning, you want to drink?"
"What? Can't you drink early in the morning? Which law says it? ”
"I mean, there's no place to sell alcohol early in the morning, right?"
"There's a place where I know a bar, and it's open 24 hours a day."
Konstantin seems to have drunk this time, but he still has to wait for Ji Xiaochen to nod.
Ji Xiaochen took out a palm-sized iron box, opened the iron box, and put the helmet inside.
That's right, such a small iron box can hold such a large iron box, and then Ji Xiaochen also took out a hundred pounds from the iron box.
Ji Xiaochen muttered, "It's okay, you left me the money." ”
Konstantin took a deep puff of his cigarette and the corners of his mouth went up, he was already starting to have some bad ideas.
When leaving the alley, Ji Xiaochen also asked, "Why did those people beat you?" ”
'Because I said Chelsea were rubbish, and on Saturday, Arsenal will definitely be bloodied.'
Konstantin took Ji Xiaochen to the famous street of London, Baker Street.
Sherlock Holmes should have lived here, but there was no Sherlock Holmes in DC, so Ji Xiaochen could only feel a pity, otherwise he could still communicate with that real detective, instead of drinking with this sloppy detective from hell.
This bar is called "Hell's Bar", and it's quite appropriate.
Although the bar was indeed open, business in the bar was lukewarm, with only a few customers, all of whom were professional drunkards like Konstantin.
In the bar was a big bartender, and when he saw Konstantin, he looked dissatisfied, and said, "John, I can't give you any more credit, if you want to drink, you have to pay." ”
"Jack, don't look down on people too much, I have a friend who invites you to drink."
Konstantin pointed to Ji Xiaochen, who was wearing a tight-fitting suit behind him.
Jack looked Ji Xiaochen up and down, shook his head and said, "What a strange friend." ”
Ji Xiaochen handed the money to Jack, and then said, "I'm not John's friend, no one wants to be friends with him." ”
"That's a true story."
Jack understood Ji Xiaochen's words very well, and poured two beers for the two.
Konstantin gulped down and was very satisfied.
Ji Xiaochen didn't have much interest in wine, he put his wine glass and asked, "You also drank wine, now you should tell me what you want to trade?" ”
Konstantin took out his cigarette again and smoked it, and then said slowly: "Your box is good, after finding the swamp monster, you give me the box." ”
It turned out that Konstantin wanted to pit his own box, and this box was also a treasure given by Morpheus, called the Space Treasure Box, don't look at it as big as a palm, in fact, the space inside is endless, much like Doraemon's pocket, just those treasures in Doraemon's pocket.
"In a word, as long as you help me find the swamp monster, I will give you the box."
Knowing that this is Konstantin's pit, Ji Xiaochen is still willing to jump, he knows Konstantin too well, and knows that he is the number one fraudster in the DC universe, so he is very sure that he will not be in the trap.
Konstantin stretched out his hand, and Ji Xiaochen shook hands with him.
Konstantin's evil smile seemed as if the treacherous scheme had succeeded, and he only got to the point this time and said: "This swamp monster is the embodiment of the green of all things, and can connect all the plants on the earth, so after drinking, we will go to the woods on the outskirts, and let me summon him with a little effort." ”
"Then you hurry up and finish the wine, we have to hurry."
Ji Xiaochen just wanted to finish all the tasks early and go home early.
"Don't worry, the wine needs to be tasted slowly."
Konstantin grinded and chirped, he was naturally not in a hurry at all, after all, it was not his private matter.
"You drink too, I'm not happy to drink alone."
Konstantin also urged Ji Xiaochen to come.
Ji Xiaochen drank his wine in one go, and he didn't even pay attention to what this beer tasted like.
Then, he waited quietly for Konstantin to finish his drink.
Grinding and chirping, Konstantin finally lifted his ass from his chair and said, "Let's go, let's go summon that freak." ”
Just as he was about to leave, a woman's angry voice came from the door: "John Constantine! You bastard! ”
