It was a beautiful night, Du Ping slept very comfortably, in his sleep Du Ping seemed to have a deep entanglement with Mimiko, and then fell asleep happily with his petite and soft body in his arms.

……

In a separate room, Hannah sat angrily on the edge of her bed, holding a small pair of scissors in her hand, constantly snowing into a puppet on the table.

Hannah, "Damn it!"

Hannah, "Damn! Damn!"

Hannah, "Damn! Damn! Damn!"

Hannah, "Damn! Damn! Damn!"

……

In an uninhabited corridor, Susan's figure stood motionless outside the door of a guest room, and it took a long time to turn away.

……

In another separate room, Tye crawled on the toilet in the room without an image, vomiting constantly, vomiting one after another, vomiting involuntarily, as if all the strength of her body had been drained at once, so that she could only sit on the floor of the bathroom.

Tye, "Du Fair!"

Tye had a smug smile on his face.

Tye, "Susan!"

Tye's face turned annoyed again.

……

On the balcony on the second floor of the small building, Elizabeth, dressed in a beautiful long dress, walked to the balcony railing with a long scepter in her hand, looked at the guests who kept disappearing in the distance, and slowly stroked the handle of her scepter with her right hand, with a satisfied smile on her face.

……

In Suzuki's dormitory room, the door was slammed open, and Aishwarya and Catherine carried Joanna into the room, kicked the door shut, and then fell together on a small bed near the room, refusing to get up.

……

In Du Fair's room, Suzuki Sand Feather secretly kissed Du Fair's cheek, and quietly climbed onto the small bed where Du Fair was lying in a thief, and then pulled open the blanket that was covering Du Fair, and blushed and sneaked in.

……

Outside, the moonlight shone like frost on the entire campus, and the campus, which was extremely lively during the day, was extremely silent at this time. It was late at night, and whether they wanted to sleep or not, everyone fell asleep one by one.

…………………………

Waking up in the morning is a chilling headache, which is a combination of hangovers and heavy drinking. But the softness of the hand made Du Ping's whole body stiff, and the long silk hair scattered near his nose and face, so that he was already soberly aware that there was a woman lying beside him.

Du Ping, "Sand Feather!"

It turned out to be Suzuki Sanaha, and Du Fair's heart relaxed suddenly, but there was some deep disappointment.

Suzuki Sawa, "Good morning, Fair-kun!"

Suzuki Sappa crawled out from under the common blanket, and the whole of his clothes showed that Du Cheng had really just had a dream last night.

Du Ping's thoughts were quickly diverted by the headache and the pain from his body. And this is not Suzuki Sawa's dormitory, or Toto's own dormitory.

Du Ping, "Where is this?"

Suzuki Sawa, "You drank too much last night in the guest room of the Rose Camp small building, so they arranged you here and washed your clothes. Because you threw up all over yourself, it seems like you fell a few times, and they drugged you. ”

Suzuki pointed to a stack of clothes on the bedside table.

Du Pingping really found that he had been changed into the kind of white Yu clothes commonly used in hotels, and his body seemed to have been cleaned. Du Ping was a little surprised, this kind of thing happened just a short time ago, and it was at Regan's house. Who changed his clothes and bathed himself this time?

Du fair, "They?"

Suzuki Sunaba, "Yes, the valet here." ”

There's even a manservant here!, but it's good, at least it's much better than an unknown little girl who strips herself naked and studies it again.

"Nothing happened to us, did we?"

Du Pingping was ready to confirm the sweet dream of last night. This made Suzuki's face turn red all at once.

Suzuki Sawa, "What are you thinking!" My aunt said that girls are not allowed to do this until they are married! ”

Like a frightened bird, Suzuki Sand Feather quickly drew a cross on his chest. Then he looked at Du Fair embarrassedly.

Suzuki Sunwa, "If you really need it, I can use my hands, or ......"

Du Ping quickly stopped Suzuki Sawa and continued.

"We can leave now, right?"

Du Fair and Suzuki Sanda left without any stopping, only the girl who claimed to be Carmen last night came over to say hello to Du Fair.

This is the small building of the Rose Camp and the base of the Rose Camp, and there are many girls who live here in the morning, and people come and go. But I didn't see a boy who stayed here like Du Ping, and it seems that Du Ping's situation was also an accident.

It's just that what Du Fair and Suzuki Sawa don't know is that in several different rooms in this small building, there is actually a girl watching him leave.

…………………………

After Thanksgiving, it came to the rhythm of the final exams, and Du Fair, Suzuki Sawa, including Joanna, Aishwarya, etc., all began to get busy, and even the two could no longer complete the intimate action of meeting once a day, but could only use mobile phones to solve mutual contact. Suzuki Sawa and others are busy with the final exams of many of their courses, and Du Ping is busy with his graduation defense.

Du Pingping's mentor Max is very helpful to Du Pingping, and this kind of help can even be said to be a release from some sides, but Max thinks that some of Du Pingping's levels and abilities are far beyond his own knowledge, and he will not torture his own people for the sake of those false names. So, what really matters is the defense presentation with several professors in the industry.

Since it was only a personal defense prepared for Du Pingping, these professors were willing to attend, mainly because of the school's arrangement (and possibly the coordination of the FBI), Professor Max's friendship, and curiosity about Du Pingping's little guy. The defense was supposed to be a small conference room for 10 people, but the professors asked to bring their students with them, and it ended up being a circular multimedia class specially prepared by the university for graduate school.

This is a circular classroom that can be used by 30-40 people, and like most university classrooms, the podium is lower than the front, and the seats of the audience are instead rising layer by layer, because it is a ring, it is a bit of an ancient circular arena. Du Pingping took his lecture and walked onto the podium, with 5 grading professors at the front, and 20-30 students in the back, densely packed with people who were curious, surprised, suspicious, or jealous......

Du Pingping took it in his eyes, opened the handout, and released the PPT.

"Today I am going to talk about the important role of medical anthropology from the perspective of the New York City slaughterhouse white bone head case. ”

With the movement of the mouse, a place full of white bones and human heads appeared in the eyes of everyone, and the dense and completely white ossified skulls of human beings shocked all the judges and spectators present. Even if it is the university of Tang Guo, although they have heard of this very famous case, like the first-hand case information in front of them, the FBI and the New York City Police Department will not share it with them. Therefore, although I am a professional studying forensic anthropology, I am used to seeing the existence of human bones and corpses, but I still feel a huge impact.

"Two years ago in March, I was invited by the FBI to assist in the case of the white bones and human heads that shocked the whole soup slaughterhouse, and the first headache for the FBI and the New York City police was how to confirm the identity of the deceased. Because from the traditional technical point of view, if there is no relevant identity object of the victim, the police have no way to face the skull that is completely indistinguishable. That's when they found me, who was in the East Ball. Because at that time, I had just assisted the Dongliuqiu Police Agency and the Metropolitan Police Department in handling 2 bone incidents. And used the knowledge of anthropology to restore the possible appearance of the deceased, so that the Dongliuqiu police quickly confirmed the identity of the deceased. So the FBI hopes that I can help with this. They brought it to the East Ball and first gave me the skull of a victim. ”

Du Ping manipulated the mouse, and the picture changed to a single white bone human head.

"First of all, anthropologically, it is easy to identify the skull as having distinctly characteristics of the eastern Nordic race. You can look at these points, which are the hallmark differences of the people in the region. ”

Some red symbols begin to appear on the head of the skeleton man.

"First of all, anthropologically, it is easy to identify the skull as having distinctly characteristics of the eastern Nordic race. You can look at these points, which are the hallmark differences of the people in the region. That's where you can apply, the theories and techniques I mentioned in the journal Nature in February of that year. Based on the general distribution of facial muscles in this species, the location of the fulcrum of the main facial muscles on this white bone is determined. ……”

Du Pingping's defense was very successful, and after the end, the audience aroused enthusiastic applause. It is a sure thing to pass, but Professor Max then gave Du Ping a choice, that is, a visiting professor at the school, and the school hopes that Du Pingping's scholarship and knowledge can be disseminated, carried forward and expanded here. To put it simply, it is very important for schools to know Du Pingping's knowledge, and it will have a huge impact in the future. This is the school, and cultivating its own important academic system and academic influence is one of the important tasks of the school. It is also an important content that continues to be inherited and evolved.

Du Pingping accepted this condition, in fact, there was some exchange and communication between the two sides before. In this way, as long as Du Ping returns to school in June next year to get the certificate he should get, there will be nothing to do. Of course, there is also a 40-hour teaching time agreed with the school for half a year, but since he is a visiting professor, his course is similar to an open class at a university, and it is an optional course. It is only available to graduate school students, and after the specific time is determined, it will be published on the school's official website, and students can register and come by themselves. Therefore, for Du Pingping, there is still no big pressure on this work.

After the communication with the school, Du met Lisa in the school's on-campus café. At the FBI, the last pretender serial murder case is over, and all the formalities have been completed. Lisa also sat very easily across from Du Ping.

Lisa, "I've heard that things are going well on your side. ”

"Yes, Professor Max and the school are very supportive, so it's going well. After Christmas, I will be a full-fledged master's degree, but I won't be able to get my official certificate until June next year. So, you don't have any job for me there, do you?"

Lisa, "Work can never be done without." It's just that generally at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, the focus of the FBI and local police stations is social stability and law and order. Instead, we might want to be a little more relaxed. What's the plan, it's Christmas soon?"

"Actually, last year and the year before that, I was studying in school. This year, I was thinking about whether to go back to Dongliuqiu once, and I haven't been back for 3 years. ”

Lisa, "You don't accompany your girlfriend." ”

"Her aunt was an antique, Christian fanatic and didn't allow her to fall in love at school. I didn't want to trouble her, so I had to find the show myself. ”

Lisa, "Poor thing, I can at least go home, and my family is waiting for me." ”

"If that's the case, I wish you a Merry Christmas." ”

A beautiful cardboard box was placed in front of Lisa.

"This is a Japanese-style snack that my girlfriend and I make together, and although it is a common type in Dongliuqiu, it is still rare in the soup country. Hope you enjoy it. ”

…………………………

Christmas, also known as Christmas, is a traditional holiday in the Western world, which originated from Christianity, and on December 25 every year, the church will hold some worship services to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Most Catholic churches hold midnight services on Christmas Eve, December 25, while some Christian churches celebrate Christmas Day on December 25. After the nineteenth century, Christmas became popular in the whole world, and at the same time, Christmas cards and Santa Claus began to appear, and Christmas began to become an increasingly important world holiday in the whole world. It's the same with Tang Guo.

Du Fair and Suzuki Sawa make a batch of common Japanese snacks and pack them in beautiful cartons. The two sent some people with whom they had a good relationship everywhere, and they also got some good praise.

"Thank you for taking care of you!"

A finely lidded cardboard box was placed in front of Susan.

Susan, "What is this?"

Du Pingping, "I hope you can like the Dongliu ball snacks made by yourself." ”

Susan, "Really, so cute!"

Susan opened the box, looked at the beautifully made and cute rice balls and bento boxes inside, and with a look of surprise, she picked up a piece and put it in her mouth.

Susan, "Very interesting texture, really delicious, thank you!"

As he was about to leave, Susan stopped him.

Susan, "I have Christmas presents for you too!"

A small white gift box was handed to Du Pingping's hand.

Susan, "Open it and see!"

"Isn't it only open until Christmas?"

Susan, "I don't have those exquisiteness. Hope you like it. ”

Du Ping opened the box, and a black watch was revealed, very fashionable style, exquisite craftsmanship, showing that it was not an ordinary product.

Du Pingping, "It looks precious, is it really suitable?"

Susan took the watch, pulled Du Fair's wrist, and brought it for Du Fair herself.

Susan, "Looks really good! Don't take it off, or I'll be angry." ”

Du Ping left.

Susan watched him leave with a smile, took a women's watch of the same style from her pouch and put it on her wrist, smiled slyly, and then returned to the small building of the Rose Camp with a stack of beautiful gift boxes left by Du Ping. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Hannah standing there.

Hannah, "What are you holding?"

Susan, "Some Christmas gifts from Du Fair, homemade balls of food, you won't be interested." ”

Hannah, "Who said that!"

Hannah walked over, pulled one out of the stack of boxes, and turned to leave.

…………………………

Du gave gifts to Professor Max, the principal, two of his classmates and friends, Susan from Camp Rose, and Lisa from the FBI, and then found that there was nothing left to give. Then the work left is to fill out the New Year's certificate for his relatives and friends in Dongliuqiu. Tang people have the tradition of sending postcards, but there is no tradition of sending New Year's greetings, and the stores sell greeting cards designed for Christmas and Thanksgiving, which is very inconsistent with the New Year's habits of Dongliuqiu. In the end, Du Pingping decided to buy some postcards with the special landscape of Tang Country as a carrier of the New Year's note, and wrote the New Year's letter one by one in line with the habits of Dongliuqiu.

“…… It's been 3 years since I arrived in Yukoku, but I miss the chazuke you made very much. When I think of the smell of chazuke, I can think of your care and love for me. …… I hereby wish you a happy new year, all wishes can be fulfilled during the new year, so the worries will disappear...... Respectfully. ”

“…… It's always a feeling when I remember it, but my time at Tachibana High School was the happiest, warmest, and happiest time of my life, and your voice and smiling face are always the most memorable during that time,...... Hereby wish you eternal health and happiness, smooth work, and all the juniors and juniors grow up healthy and happy......"

“…… I am in a good mood for the New Year, and I have no worries every day; Raise your head to embrace happiness, bow your head and embrace beauty; A happy heart, a warm family; Happiness is around, health welcomes the future; Friend, I wish you ,...... from afar"

“…… The Spring Festival is coming, this year, the blessing is not easy to send, the happiness is packed, the sensationalism is rushed early, everything is good and the health does not know who was abducted, but my blessing is still delivered. Happy Chinese New Year! ”

“…… I wish my parents good health and peace, and everything goes smoothly and there are few worries. ……”

“…… I spend the most time with you, and the best days to work with you, work overtime with you, struggle with you, and do things no worse than brotherhood, on the occasion of the Spring Festival, may your wishes come true......"

The time to write a New Year's letter is happy and joyful. Especially when a person writes in a campus that has gradually emptied, in an unmanned dormitory building, and in a quiet room, those inexplicable loneliness is like a poison that penetrates the bones and constantly soaks into Du Pingping's bone marrow, making the soul have a pain called emptiness.

Isn't it really this year's New Year, go home and take a look?

Du Pingping walked out of the room, walked to the hallway, opened the window, and looked at the campus as if it had never been so quiet, and his heart was full of melancholy.

What happened to the parents?

How's my sister?

How's Kuroda-sama?

How's the daylight-sama doing?

There are also teachers, classmates, and principals.

and the most unforgettable woman - Mimiko, is she happy.

And the legendary child, the child with his own blood and bones, what does it look like? Is it lively and healthy?
