==================

☆, the train to Midtown

The last time Felicity visited Central City was last spring.

Midtown is a bright place, and even like Star City, some bad guys come out to cause trouble from time to time, but they can be dismissed with a stretch and, if you're lucky, time to buy a cup of coffee along the way.This is Zhongshi bathed in sunshine, the city that belongs to him.

He was Barry Allen, a somewhat eccentric and paranoid fellow, the most boyish and almost the most powerful man Felicity had ever liked.

Yes, it is no longer a secret that the hero "The Flash" who wears red clothes and shuttles between cities, whether it is the rumors on the tabloids or the real insiders, vivid stories seem to be able to describe him.But if one day the people of Midtown know that there is an innocent smiling face under the mask of lightning, they will not believe that their hero is like an underage boy whose ID card will be checked by the police in a bar.

Thinking of this, Felicity sitting on the train couldn't help laughing.Then her ecstatic gaze finally focused on the car window, and she saw that the old woman in blue at the opposite table was also smiling.

Felicity looked back at her in embarrassment, not knowing why she was blushing.

"I just remembered something really funny," she lamely explained, before emphasizing as clumsily as ever, "It's not, it's not about 'sex'! It's just about a person's fun experience…"

The old woman responded to Felicity with a smile that you don't need to explain.

Feeling really embarrassed, Felicity looked away and took out the laptop to play.This is an old train and there is no Wi-Fi provided, so she had to hack the backup network in the cab, and while sorting out information for Oliver, she watched gossip news online.

In the search bar, the name "Flash" was accidentally typed. Just as she annoyed herself, she pressed the Enter key uncontrollably, so she simply did another in-depth search...

There are a lot of gossip about The Flash circulating on the Internet, and the most reported media is the newspaper where Iris works.According to Cisco and Caitlin, Barry often meets Iris as the Flash, and Iris admires the Flash very much, and it can even be said to have a little girl's admiration.

"Maybe I should be happy for him," Felicity thought, unaware of the wry smile on her lips.

"Girls in love always worry about gains and losses like this." The old woman at the opposite table suddenly said this.

Felicity waved her hands again and again: "No, no, we are not lovers, he is just a very good friend of mine."

From friend to lover is a very normal process, but once from liking to letting go, she knows that it will be just a dusty past.The rose that finally sprouted in each other's hearts withered before it bloomed.

"Oh, what a pity. Unrequited love is painful, isn't it? I also fell into a few loves that ended in nothing when I was young..."

Felicity gasped again: "No no, I'm only in a relationship with my work right now." She pointed to her precious computer.

"Girl, no girl would take a train all the way to see someone she doesn't like."

"I have to declare that this time I'm looking for him for work." Felicity brought up a reason confidently.She would never tell the old lady that this job can be done with just an E-mail and application for control of the other party's page.

The old woman teased and smiled, and suddenly fell into a state of self-confidence: "What a lucky boy. Many years ago, I also liked to take the train to visit my boyfriend who was in a long-distance relationship. Every time, he would pick me up on the train platform. Later, We got married..."

Then the announcement sounded, and Midtown Station arrived. Felicity put away the computer and was about to get up and get off the bus, but inadvertently saw Barry standing on the platform and waving to her outside the car window.

what's the situation? !Although he has been to Midtown several times, Barry has never come to the station to pick him up. Well, the first few times it was because he was in a coma, and the last time he arrived unexpectedly because he didn't say hello... Felicity was shocked and confused Xi, while speeding up the pace and getting off the car, he looked back at the old woman.

No, that kind of romance won't happen to me. Felicity shook her head, trying to keep her head clear.She looked again, and the old woman was no longer in the seat.

……

"Hey, what are you doing here?"

Barry shrugged and smiled, "I hope this sentence is not your criticism of me."

"No, of course not, how can you say that you once saw me off on the train, you are quite a friend." Just after finishing speaking, Felicity regretted it again, which made the two of them fall into silence for tens of seconds.

On that train out of Midtown, a "kissgoodbye" had brought their relationship to an end.He couldn't let go of Iris, and she couldn't let go of Oliver, but because of this, they are the people who understand each other's feelings the most in the world. They don't need to say anything, they already understand everything, they can't stop the gravity that wants to get closer, and they have to be brave. Turn around and leave.This is the story of Barry Allen and Felicity Smoak, simpler than any pair of men and women.

"I'll help you with your luggage." Barry took the lead to break the silence, and hesitantly talked about the strange things that happened in Midtown in recent days.

Then they chatted about various academic topics, and the two became natural in an instant. Barry mentioned that a Professor Simon from Midtown University was about to publish a paper that claimed to shock the physics world. He once wanted to put on a battle suit and sneak into his house to see the truth. Felicity laughed triumphantly and said that he had hacked into Simon The professor's computer has already read the paper. Barry opened his mouth, with an unbelievable smile on his face, and there was a hint of appreciation that everyone could detect.

"Okay, the hotel I booked has arrived. You can go to work. I will take a taxi to the cutting-edge laboratory in the afternoon." Felicity took the luggage in his hand and said thank you.

Barry put his hands in his trouser pockets, looked at the red brick motel in front of him, and frowned: "Actually, you can stay at my place."

Felicity looked up at him in shock, and Barry quickly stuttered and explained, "I, I mean the apartment I rented before! You know, I'm moving back in with Joe now, and that apartment is vacant. In the past, I thought I would live there permanently, so I paid the rent for three years at once, so I thought, if you come to Midtown next time, you might be able to live there..." He stared at Felicity's expression without a trace, then quickly lowered his head Look at your shoes.

"Thank you, Barry." If there was a next time, Felicity smiled softly.

Barry watched the back of Felicity dragging his luggage into the hotel, and remembered the "unusual young woman" that Dr. Wells once praised.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

The cutting-edge lab hasn't changed much, Cisco is still excitedly researching weird things, Caitlin is still complaining that the team needs a female topic, and Dr. Wells is still elusive, making people uncomfortable.Even so, Felicity still feels that everything here is healing, and she needs some energy to dispel the haze brought by Star City.So for small things like helping them fix a bug in the facial recognition system, or sending a DNA sample from a dead body to Caitlin, she would rather take the train for hours to come to Midtown.

The alarm on the monitor suddenly sounded, and Cisco trotted over to take a look, and his face changed drastically: "Damn, Captain Cold is back! Call Barry quickly! Tell him to go to the central bank!"

Just as Caitlin picked up the phone, he frowned and smiled wryly: "But today is his date day with Linda..."

Cisco took out the jiggle in his mouth and said solemnly: "Do you want tomorrow to be the end of everyone?"

Caitlin had no choice but to dial the phone.

After busying around for a while, Felicity finally took advantage of their free time to ask, "Who is Linda?"

Caitlin and Cisco were once again in a sort of awkward situation, exactly like the last time Felicity asked them who Iris was in Star City.

Felicity nodded knowingly.At this time, the alarm was sounded again, and a bank in the south of the city was also attacked.

"It must be Captain Cold's accomplice - 'Heat Wave' Mick Rory! This guy is not very good at thinking, and he is the easiest to accidentally injure people when he is crazy. Let Barry deal with him first, and we will delay the cold team!"

"Us?" Caitlin's brow furrowed into a ball.

"The anti-riot shield I just developed last week is going to be sold to the police station. If you're lucky, you won't be injured if you bring that blocking freeze gun."

"Thank goodness, I'm wearing my lucky color today." Felicity, who was wearing a blue dress, patted her chest in shock.

When they arrived at the central bank, the police had blocked off the road.The leader was Detective Eddie Thawne. Cisco held up his shield and asked him to allow them to go in to find Leonard Snart. Eddie refused, and the three of them had to rush through the barricade and go straight to the bank lobby.

There were no hostages in the bank, and even the vault door was not damaged, only some glass windows that had alarms were broken.

"Idiots, do you know what is more tempting than money?" Leonard Snart wandered out from behind the marble pillar with a gun. "It's to make people disillusioned with heroes. That kind of despair is really entertaining."

Felicity, Caitlin, and Cisco fearfully hide behind their protective shields, enduring Captain Cold's antisocial personality disorder promotional speech.

"Why doesn't Barry come here? My legs are so weak that I can hardly support my frail body." Cisco wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"He's neglected to practice this week, so it won't work." Caitlin has already drawn up a training plan for the next month in his mind.

"Maybe he was dealing with the heat wave and wondering if Linda would be mad at him, which slowed down his speed." Felicity didn't realize that there was a bit of jealousy in his tone when he said this.

"Hey, you guys know I can hear your conversations with my earphones on, right?" Barry's voice came through the communicator.

Cisco and Caitlin looked at each other and decided to keep this topic at arm's length.

Not far away, Snart shouted angrily: "I know, it's hard to pull the Flash off the altar with two laser guns, so I've been wanting to see if you have more interesting weapons. But you brought a broken shield Are you kidding me? Luckily I always have a plan B.”

"Oops, Dr. Wells is the only one in the lab!" Cisco suddenly realized.

"No, it's the 'prison' in the basement that's worse!" Caitlin's hands softened in panic, and the shield dropped down, exposing all the attacked areas of her upper body.

"Be careful!" Felicity didn't have time to think, the body's natural reaction was to rush over and push Caitlin away.

"Sorry, kid." Snart raised his mouth and fired in Caitlin's direction.

0.01 seconds before the ice-blue flame came through the air, Felicity successfully knocked Caitlin who was dumbfounded; and 0.0001 seconds before Felicity was about to be refrigerated into an ice sculpture, the red lightning carried her, a princess, to the road cordon outside.

Eddie saw Felicity sitting on the ground with a pale face, but there was an inexplicable smile on his mouth.He called the ambulance, but Felicity waved him off, only to let him send a car to drive him back to the state-of-the-art lab.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

When Cisco and Caitlin rushed back to the laboratory, they saw Dr. Wells leaving the monitoring hall just after talking with Barry and Felicity.

After Barry rescued Felicity, Snart quietly withdrew from the central bank.When Barry ran back to the laboratory, he saw Dr. Wells calmly packing a strange device.

"Hasn't the lab been attacked?" Cisco was out of breath, and was about to run straight to his arsenal, and Caitlin couldn't wait to check the basement.

Barry stopped in front of them with a stride: "Dr. Wells has driven off the men sent by Leonard Snart."

Cisco's eyes widened: "How did you do it?"

"Dr. Wells said you used your stun bombs, and then Barry sent the rest of the gangsters to the police station. As for Leonard Snart and Mick Rory, they probably ran away after seeing the situation was wrong. I have to say that Dr. Wells' resilience It's amazing, and he must be wearing a lucky color today." Felicity folded her hands on her chest, silently glanced in the direction the doctor left, and seemed to feel that something was a little strange.

"Captain Cold is the most dangerous and boring villain I've ever seen!" Cisco was a little mad, "It seems that the security system of the laboratory has to be upgraded to the strictest level, if the group of super-powered bastards in the basement are allowed to escape Come out, and steal my precious weapon by the way, it is definitely the end of the world! Felicity, can you please write a program that only you can crack?"

"Of course it's okay." Felicity adjusted his glasses frame, walked straight to the computer desk and started to operate.

Then Cisco muttered to replenish his stun bombs, and Caitlin decided to go to Dr. Wells to discuss the laboratory's rectification plan.There were only two people left in the entire surface monitoring hall.

Felicity's fingers were typing on the keyboard quickly, but her eyes stared at Barry who was taking off the red suit from time to time.He didn't use super speed to change clothes, Felicity thought.

"Ahem, so..."

Barry hung the red dress in the window, and turned to listen to what she had to say.

"Linda, huh?" Felicity smiled meaningfully.

"Oh..." Barry didn't know why he was embarrassed, "Yes, Linda, I started dating her two weeks ago. Well, she's a reporter and she's a nice person."

Felicity nodded: "I guess, she should be a very active and strong girl."

"How do you know?" Barry asked with a smile.

Felicity gave him a "come on with your character" look. Barry smirked in surrender.

"I'm happy for you, Barry, you must cherish her." After saying this, Felicity buried herself in programming and stopped chatting.

Barry felt a little uncomfortable.For him, Felicity is a special existence beyond friends and lovers, so even if he is with Linda, he cannot choose Felicity.He didn't want to destroy that wonderful and precious relationship, and he didn't want to hurt Felicity because of Iris.But he changed his mind and thought again: This is really unfair to Linda. At the beginning, I accepted this relationship because I was eager to get out of the hardship caused by the "knot", but no one should be a temporary substitute. You should learn to let go, learn to be a lonely masked hero...

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

In the evening, when the sky was getting dark, Felicity returned to the hotel and started to pack her luggage. She decided to take the train back to Star City that night.

There is a ticket stub in the bag, which is the train ticket to Midtown this time. Felicity was not thrown into the trash, but stored in a small dark blue box.

No one knew that she filled the box with train tickets between Midtown and Star City. From the first time she came to see Barry in a coma, she started this cycle of journey.

There is a person I care about very much at the place where the train is going, so the lonely journey and the boring scenery along the way become very sweet. Felicity dragged her luggage down the street, remembering what the old lady on the train had said.

On the way to the train station, you will pass the Midtown Photo News Agency. At the gate of the newspaper office, there is a couple arguing at the moment.The man held a bouquet of flowers and danced and explained, but the woman crossed her arms and turned her head to ignore it.Felicity, across the street, unknowingly stopped and watched. She had a deep desire to be like that girl, having ordinary troubles and quarrels in love.But when she found out that the man and woman were Eddie and Iris, she was not sure whether she would like to fall into such a sweet love.

At 23:49, in the dead of night.

When Felicity was sitting on the bench at the station waiting for the train, she found that the old lady she met in the morning was sitting next to her.

"What a coincidence, ma'am."

"Yes, girl."

"Are you traveling alone to Midtown?"

"No, it's not. My husband used to be from Midtown, and then we moved abroad. This time we came back together to see. He was here just now, and now he's going to buy drinks. What about you? You come Didn't the boy you were looking for come to see you off?"

Felicity shook her head and smiled, "He's with his girlfriend."

The old woman sighed: "The story is still very long." Felicity was a little confused, and the woman smiled mysteriously, and added, "You have to prepare a bigger box for the train tickets."

At this time, the text message rang, and Felicity took out her phone in a panic.

"Will you let me know in advance when you come or leave next time? I want to help you with your luggage - Barry."

She stared at the phone screen for a long time, and everything seemed to be back to when she first met Barry.He is not a hero with superpowers, but a boy who chats with him.

Maybe, I should really buy a big box of ticket stubs. Felicity smiled sweetly.When she looked at the old woman beside her again, there was no one on the chair.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Mrs. Allen, I can't see her again next time. Don't you know how vigilant and smart you were when you were young?"

"Am I stupid now?"

"No, of course not, my dear. But if the timeline is destroyed, the juniors will have to blame us."

……

Under the dim long lights of the train station, two gray-haired old men disappeared by the side of the road like lightning.

2015-5-14

The author has something to say: The background is basically the timeline from the first season to the second season of The Flash.

The ending of this article is a wonderful easter egg^_^

Note: The first four chapters are more like the story of a unit drama, which is biased towards the original; Chapter 5 starts the main story, a strange imagination.

☆、Give me a dance time

When Felicity saw Barry, she was lying on the window sill at home looking at the stars.

She was worried about the new boss Ray Palmer, and then Barry appeared in front of her without warning, just like Peter Pan knocked on the window of the little girl Wendy in the fairy tale.

"Oh my god, this is the 11th floor! Barry Allen!"

"Hi, Felicity." Barry stepped on the eaves downstairs, smiling brightly.

Felicity tiptoed to see that he was almost hanging outside, and his mind was a little dizzy: "Dear Mr. Allen, you are Flash, not Spider-Man."

Barry went through the window and explained: "If you don't give me a hand, I may really fall. To be honest, I have always been a little afraid of heights. Once I have an attack, I can't use my superpower speed, although no one believes it."

Felicity gave him an annoyed look, and carefully dragged him into the house.

The two sat on the floor panting, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"How do you know my home is here?"

Barry shrugged: "Cisco's tracking ability is not inferior to yours. Besides, it is not difficult to find the addresses of Palmer Group employees."

"Then what? What's the matter with you coming to my house? And you're still wearing your battle suit." Felicity turned on another desk lamp, and the dim atmosphere made her feel a little whimsical.

Barry stammered: "Last time when I came to Star City to help you solve the boomerang murder case, Oliver was quite critical of me. Although he still reserved a place for me in your secret base in the end, I don't dare to wear it rashly. This suit is in his place."

"Speak the key."

Barry unconsciously leaned forward, and his voice suddenly dropped two gears: "There is a transformation man who came here from Midtown. He can transform into anyone, and he is quite a dangerous guy. Cisco insisted on naming him 'Disguise' Geek 2.0'..."

Facing Barry's mysterious look, Felicity just replied calmly: "Then how do I know if he will become you? For example, you are the one who told me these things now, so I can call the police ?"

"Are you serious? It's badtime now, that Transformer..."

"I know what badtime is." Felicity interrupted him again, "For example, Oliver had a fight with his sister just after he escaped from death, and he had a fight with Roy; for example, Thea found out that he killed Sara , the whole person collapsed; another example is that Black Canary was beaten half to death and then rescued by Oliver; another example is that Ray Palmer is studying his battle suit like crazy every day, and he wants me to help him... So now I really I'm not in the mood to transform people, Barry."

"Wow, relax, Felicity, you people in Star City really live in the haze every day." Barry sighed.

Felicity stared sideways at him.

Barry surrendered his hands: "Okay, I'm sorry, but listen to me, this Masquerade in Disguise 2.0 is really tricky, and you don't want this super-powered bastard to mess with Oliver and Star City again at such a critical moment, right? ?”

Felicity had nothing to do, and after a few seconds of silence, he said, "I can help you, but you have to promise me one condition."

"What conditions?"

The corners of Felicity's lips curled up, and there was a sudden light in his eyes.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Oliver, I'd like to take two days off."

Oliver on the other end of the phone paused: "Okay. Are you okay?"

"My mom is back and I want to be with her. The team can call me if there is an emergency."

"Ok."

……

"Speaking of which, I've never met your family." Barry made a cup of coffee and sat on the sofa.

Felicity hung up the phone and looked back, seeing that he seemed to be completely unceremonious at home, and asked casually, "Did you sleep comfortably in the grocery room last night?"

"Next time I'd rather sleep on this sofa."

"No next time!" Felicity emphasized immediately.

Suddenly the doorbell rang.

Barry looked up at the big wall clock in the living room, it was only 6:55: "Who, it's so early."

"Miss Smoak, are you there? I'm interrupting again."

The sound from the door made Felicity startled.

"Get up!" She urged Barry in a low voice, "Go to the grocery room quickly, lock the door, and don't come out!"

Confused, Barry picked up his coffee and wandered into the room slowly.

Felicity was pissed off at him.

Opening the door, the person standing straight outside the door was Ray Palmer, the president of the Palmer Group in a suit and leather shoes.

"Good morning, Miss Smoak." He had already walked into the room and sat down.

Why is everyone I know so familiar. Felicity rolled her eyes mentally.

"Boss, didn't I say last time that I'm fine in the early morning and don't disturb the lives of the employees?"

"Yes." Ray was selectively deaf, and took out a small device from his arms. "Last night, I was researching how to design the power supply of the suit in the studio. I want to hear your opinion."

Felicity shrugged and smiled: "I'm a computer student, and I'm not good at engineering at all. You should ask relevant professionals."

"You know, the less people know about it, the better. You are the only one I believe in."

Felicity was at a loss for words, a warm current welled up in her heart.

"Well, I know a very powerful expert who is good at keeping secrets. I will take you to Midtown next time to ask him for advice. I think, after meeting him, there must be a breakthrough for your battle uniform."

"That's great!" Ray suddenly stood up and held Felicity's shoulder, "You are so kind!"

Felicity blushed with embarrassment at his height advantage and silly smile.

"You, you, you go back first." She took advantage of the opportunity to push Ray to the door.

"Okay, I'm sorry to interrupt your morning exercise again." Ray put his hand against the door frame and said with a smile, "The company will hold a dance party for customers tonight, don't you already have a dance partner?" He suddenly lowered his eyebrows and looked at the shoes The men's sneakers on the rack have playful eyes.

Felicity screamed inwardly, Oops!Those are Barry's shoes!

"Are you asking me to be your dance partner?" Felicity asked calmly.

Ray rolled his eyes: "You can say that."

"I'm afraid I will disappoint you. If you don't prepare a dress for me next time, I can consider accepting your invitation again. You know, even if you sell your expensive dresses, I won't be able to pay for them. Well, I'm definitely not implying 'sell me' or anything! It's getting late, and I have to prepare breakfast, so let's do this first, goodbye!" Felicity hurriedly closed the door and let out a breath.

She wiped the sweat from her brow, and when she looked up, she saw Barry leaning against the doorframe of the grocery room, smiling and saying nothing.

"What do you want to say?"

"That is the famous Mr. Palmer. I finally understand why Oliver has been a little irritable during this time."

"So what about you? Are you and Linda okay?" Felicity suddenly got angry, as if many people were pointing fingers at her and Ray, even now even Barry was no exception.She felt very uncomfortable.

The two looked at each other, and no one spoke for a long time. Their relationship had never been so tense.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

She probably has PMS. Barry sat a foot away from Felicity and thought to himself.

It's been an hour, and at this moment Felicity is still running the remote control identification system simulation on the computer, and the world time she plunges into the computer will completely stop.

Maybe I shouldn't ask her to do something too much for granted, she has a life of her own. Barry checked himself again in his heart.At this time, he caught sight of Felicity reaching for the water glass while staring at the computer, but there was no water in the water glass. With a brisk walk, Barry filled the water glass to her hand in 0.1 seconds.

Felicity was taken aback when she recovered.

Barry stood next to her, smiling shyly.

"If you have nothing to do, you can go outside. The garden outside my apartment is quite nice." Felicity took a sip of water embarrassingly.

"I'd better save some stamina for Masquerade 2.0." Barry put one hand on Felicity's chair and the other on the computer desk, "How is your progress?"

Felicity twisted her body uncomfortably, and said: "This remote control device needs to be tested repeatedly. Once it is successful, as long as you draw out Masquerade 2.0 and inject it into his body, my computer will be able to recognize his face, no matter who he is. What did it become?"

"Then, the most important thing now is how to lure him and inject this thing before he transforms."

Felicity took off his glasses and pinched the bridge of his nose: "Have you seen his true face? If Caitlin has his information, I can try my luck with the existing facial recognition system."

"No problem, I'll ask Caitlin to pass on the information to you." Barry took out the phone in his pants pocket, frowning, "It's out of battery..."

"Call from the living room landline."

Just as Barry picked up the phone, he looked sad again: "I can't remember Caitlin's phone number..."

Felicity was completely speechless: "It seems that the smog in our Star City is indeed contagious. Let me hack into the communicator in the cutting-edge laboratory."

"Actually, you can use ordinary social software to contact her." Barry suggested solemnly.

"No software can be hacked more quickly and directly than me," Felicity emphasized.In fact, she just didn't want to admit that she didn't think of it.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

When Felicity sneaked back to the secret base of the Green Arrow security team, no one happened to be there.

The computer in her home was not equipped with the latest facial recognition system, and only the base was equipped with the most complete equipment, so she had to rush back at the risk of being discovered.

"Barry, I'm narrowing down the scope of the target, you can run to the red zone and wait now. Uh, I mean the administrative divisions of Star City, I'm not telling you to go to the red light district..."

There was a giggle on the other end of the phone, and Felicity could imagine the joke on the other side.She really should change her habit of saying bad puns, she powerlessly put her phone on the table, thinking about it.

"Felicity, it's not an option to wait like this. I have an idea. You let the system try to identify whether there are any situations where the facial information is completely similar. If there are, then one of them is Masquerade 2.0
