City Hall of Starling.
There are 15 minutes left until the press conference.
Countless busy figures walked back and forth in the hall, checking all the equipment in the hall over and over again in order to ensure that the upcoming press conference was carried out perfectly.
Backstage, in a police uniform, the extraordinarily heroic Quentin Lance is talking to his immediate boss.
He shouldn't have been on the stage at this press conference, but because his boss did have some physical problems and was not too suitable to face the media, the task fell on his shoulders.
"So, did that monster really appear in Starling City for a long time?" The man standing next to his boss asked with a frown after listening to Quentin Lance's personal account.
"Yes, it was preliminarily determined that the monster appeared a month and a half ago." Lance nodded, his expression extremely serious, and the sight he saw that night would be imprinted in his mind for the rest of his life.
"A month and a half ago?" Chewing on Lance's extremely affirmative words, the man frowned, as if thinking about something.
About sixty years old, his round figure and height of nearly 1.9 meters make this man look extremely majestic, and the slight white hair on his sideburns not only does not show his old age, but together with the well-groomed black hair, there is a mixed beauty.
Poke Hill is currently the U.S. Secretary of Defense.
"You're saying that all the guns at the moment can't do the slightest damage to these monsters?"
"That's exactly what the police are equipped with at the moment."
I heard the comments of Quentin Lance, the commander, and recalled in my mind the report sent by my subordinates, not only did the police's standard weapons fail, but even the military's weapons could only slow down the pace, and they couldn't do any harm.
"Do you have a clue where these monsters come from? For example, which lab is the product of failure? ”
"It's a pity, so far we haven't found anything, even the time when the monster appeared in Starling City was calculated from the time we first saw it with our own eyes, it is possible that this monster group has been lurking in Starling City for a longer time."
"There may even be a possibility of lurking across the country." After Lance finished speaking, Pock Hill answered.
Who can guarantee that this mysterious monster will only appear in the city of Starling? What if one day in New York, in Washington?
"Detective Reims, please get ready, the press conference is about to begin." The staff trotted all the way to Quentin Lance's side, and his arrival caused the three who were still talking to immediately shut up and stop discussing anything about the monster.
"What about Jace? Didn't he say he would also attend the press conference? The interrupted topic Polk didn't want to pick it up again, and after looking around, he found that there was no figure in his impression, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
"He should, oh, he's coming." Lance, who wanted to say "it should be soon", saw Jace, who came to the backstage hand in hand with Felicity, and immediately changed his words.
Upon hearing the prestige, Polk saw the man who was extremely suitable for his daughter in his heart, and his brilliant blonde hair was extremely dazzling in the field.
Some people are born to be the focus.
Thinking back to his first evaluation of Jace Quinn, Polk still had a little regret in the corners of his eyes.
Time is not forgiving, time waits for no one, and Jace Quinn, who was brave at a young age, has grown from a little bean to a handsome man like today.
It's just that the woman standing next to him is not his daughter.
"Uncle Pock, long time no see." Poke Hill's figure is not obvious in the background, Jace, who came to this small circle, gave Polk a hug, and the height of 1.83 meters still looks a little short in front of Pock, who is over sixty years old.
"Growing taller again, little Jace."
"No matter how tall you are, Uncle Pock, and the next time we meet, can you not add a small print in front of my name, you always have to save me some face in public."
"Then it's up to you to put on your own show, Jace." Jace's pretended depressed expression naturally caused Polk to laugh, and in the midst of the laughter, Felicity also spoke after Jace:
"Hello, Uncle Pock." Compared to Jace's calmness, Felicity was obviously a little nervous.
She didn't know why, since Jace had brought her to meet Pock Hill three years earlier, no matter how kind he was, Felicity had always felt a sense of horror in her heart.
"Felicity is pretty again, when are you and Jace going to get married, Uncle Pock, I'm still waiting to be invited to your wedding."
After teasing Jace, it was naturally Felicity's turn.
To be fair, as much as he would love his daughter to be by Jace's side, Felicity Smock was clearly no worse than his daughter.
Graduated from a prestigious school, has outstanding work ability, good figure, appearance and temperament, and is no worse than his daughter except for his family background. For such a good girl, Pock can only sigh that his daughter lost unjustly.
"Ahem, Uncle Pock, don't worry, there will definitely be a wedding, but not now, after all, we just graduated, and now we are still focusing on our careers." Coughing a few times, Jace preemptively blocked Poke Hill's way to continue his teasing before Felicity, blushing.
"Dad, what's the matter with you, huh, Jace? Why are you here? Selena Hill, who had planned to come over to talk to her father, was surprised when she saw Jace.
The inky black waves were draped over her shoulders, on her delicate melon seed face, her smart brown eyes stared at Jace with interest, her crimson lips asked questions in doubt, and a brown lady's slim suit perfectly outlined her hot figure, ********, which made people look away.
"I'm also an eyewitness, of course I'm coming to the press conference, but you, why are you here?"
"I'm a journalist." Shaking the intern press card on her chest, Selena's face was full of smiles.
"Intern reporter for the Planet Daily? How did Selena run to Metropolis? ”
Seeing the information on the press card, Felicity was a little surprised by the choice of this alumnus and friend.
"I didn't think too much about it when I was looking for a job, I submitted resumes one by one, interviewed for interviews, and then I was hired by Planet Daily." It's very easy to say, but I'm afraid that only she knows the difficulties of this.
"But it's nothing, after the internship period, I can come to Starling City every once in a while to play with you, anyway, these two cities are not too far away." She winked playfully at Felicity, her eyes swept over Jace, who was standing side by side with her, and what she didn't feel was enough for outsiders.

"G, are you ready?" On the radio, the question from the team leader made Gao Li spit out the chewing gum that was still chewing in his mouth, and the crosshair of the scope was firmly fixed in the venue of the press conference in the distance, and the bullet was ready to be discharged at any time.
"Of course." Crumpled the white paper in his hand and put it in his pocket, chewed a piece of gum again,
"Solve Pock Hill once and for all, this is the employer's request, understand?"
"Understood."
Chewing gum, he replied nonchalantly.
