CHAPTER XVII
"John Constantine?! How can it be?! The mouth was wide open, and a look of surprise crept up Felicity's face. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Didn't Jace say he had nothing to do with Konstantin anymore?" Talking about fragments and thoughts, this is Felicity's characteristic all along, the mobile phone took out and dialed Jace's phone number quickly, and at the same time the person also walked in the direction of the elevator,
Jace wasn't there, Robert wasn't there, Oliver wasn't there, Thea wasn't there, Moira was the only one left in the big house, uh, no, according to the reason, Felicity herself should be in the house by now.
"Felicity, what's wrong?" A familiar voice sounded in his ears, and Felicity, who had already ascended to the passage in the elevator, hurriedly told Jace about Constantine's arrival.
"John Constantine? How did he get here? Coming alone? ”
"No, no, not alone, there was a woman with burgundy wavy hair who came with him, and it looked like a couple of lovers in the surveillance."
"Lovers?"
"Well, it could be a couple, you know, it's a visit, it's usually a couple of lovers, uh, of course, it could be a friend or something." The characteristic Felicity tone, although speaking a little faster, did not prevent Jace from listening and understanding.
"Konstantin, I didn't expect that there would be someone crazy enough to be willing to be with him, Felicity, you go and take him out first, don't let my mother touch him."
"Uh, Jace, I think, it's too late." Pushing open the door, I saw that Moira had already served coffee to two visitors, a man and a woman.
"Felicity, aren't you sleeping?" For Felicity, who suddenly appeared at the top of the stairs, Moira, who had just picked up her coffee, was obviously a little surprised,
"Well, I actually heard the doorbell and thought maybe there might be some guests, so I came down to take a look." Hands kept drawing circles, trying to increase the credibility of his tone, and a cold sweat gradually broke out on Felicity's forehead as Moira watched.
Oh, Jace, come back, your mother's momentum is so strong, I can't stand it.
"Young people need to know how to be temperate, and if they mess around every night, it is easy to get sleepy during the day."
Moira's tone of voice made Felicity froze for a moment, and then, the moment she reacted, her face instantly turned red, and even Konstantin and Zed, who were on the side, looked at Felicity with surprised eyes.
"Felicity, long time no see." The beige trench coat that has not changed for thousands of years, the smile on his face that is always like a ruffian, the uneven stubble and messy hair, all tell Felicity that even after all this time, this man has not yet crawled out of the abyss of decadence.
"You still haven't changed at all, Konstantin."
"Well, I think the guys I sent back have the most say on this issue."
"Felicity, do you know this Mr. Constantine?" Seeing the performance between Felicity and Konstantin, Moira, who was sitting on the side, asked suspiciously.
"Sort of, he's good friends with Jace, so that's why I know him," smiled and briefly explained the relationship between this person and Jace, and was about to ask Konstantin why he came here Felicity suddenly felt the vibration of his mobile phone, took it out and looked at it, and immediately chose to connect,
"Jace?"
"Got it, I'll take them over now." nodded, the golden ponytail behind his head continued to shake with Felicity's movements,
"It's Jace who told you to take this Mr. Constantine to meet him." Seeing Felicity set her eyes on herself after talking on the phone, Moira had a helpless smile on her face.
"Well, yes." For some reason, Felicity always felt a little weak in the face of Moira, as if she was a child who knew that she had done something bad, and Moira was the strict parent.
"You young men, let West send you out." Shaking his head, young people, especially if it is their own son's affairs, don't meddle with the elders themselves, let the juniors solve it themselves.

"Dad, I'm going to meet someone, this person has a special meaning to me, and now he's in Starling City." After the meeting ended, Jace, who was walking with Robert, hung up the phone and asked his father for a leave of absence.
"Huh? Extraordinary? ”
"He's a scientist working on what he thinks can change the world, and I've crossed paths with him," he said, shrugging, and although Jace didn't go on, that didn't stop Robert from completing the relationship between Jace and the so-called "scientist" himself.
Robert even thought of the original design that Jace had brought up at the conference.
"This kind of person, if we can grasp it, will be a great help to us." After patting his son on the shoulder and leaving such a sentence, Robert turned to leave.
Jace didn't intend to explain anything about his father's misunderstanding, and sometimes the illusion of misunderstanding was far better than the truth.
"Mr. Jace, please wait a minute,"
Just as Jace was about to leave for the designated location, a voice behind him stopped him.
"Is there something wrong? Miss Arcana? Turning to look at the woman who spoke, her gaze inevitably lingering on the grandeur of the latter's chest for a few more seconds, as if sensing Jace's gaze, Alice deliberately straightened up,
"That's right, I still have a little doubt about the weapon you proposed at the meeting, I wonder if you are free now, can you answer it for me?"
"I'd love to answer for you, but I've got my girlfriend on board, and if you have any comments or suggestions about my plan, you're welcome to send a report to my office."
Unimpressed by Alice's small movements, Jace smiled and said goodbye, leaving her alone in place.
I just seem to have been rejected, right?
Right..................

"Jace just came out of the office, I'll be here in a minute, let's order something first." Putting down the phone and looking at the two who had already sat down, Felicity said with a smile.
"The desserts here taste good, you can try Zed." He pushed the glasses that were resting on the bridge of his nose and pushed the menu in front of Zed.
"Well, ah, thank you."
"Well, then again, John, why did you come to Starling City and go to Quinn Manor to find Jace?"
"Felicity, let me ask you a question, and you must answer me honestly, without the slightest concealment." After a moment of silence, Konstantin finally spoke, but Felicity was a little embarrassed by the request.
"Jace, have you been behaving in any unusual ways lately? Or do you think he's a little different than usual? ”
