Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle.
After Mary Moore was rescued, the FBI tried to find clues, but to no avail. So a month later, the BAU team had to go back disappointed. They had other cases to deal with, so they had to put the "Messenger of Juditya" aside for the time being and deal with it as a long-term task.
The Zodiac Killer has not been found by the FBI for decades, and Hodge is not confident that he can find the "Messenger of Juditya" in a period of time.
December 24th.
Tonight is Christmas Eve.
For the American imperialist people, the meaning of Christmas Eve is equivalent to the meaning of Chinese New Year's Eve to the Chinese people.
It's the beginning of a new year.
According to Christian interpretation, this is the day of the birth of the Lord.
On the night of Jesus' birth, shepherds who were guarding their flocks in the wilderness suddenly heard a voice from heaven telling them the news of Jesus' birth. According to the Bible, Jesus came to save the world and be the Savior of all mankind (cf. Matthew 1:21). And thou shalt call his name Jesus. for he will save his people from their sins. So the angels spread the news to more people through these shepherds. Later, people followed the example of angels and preached the news of Jesus' birth on the night of Christmas Eve. Until today, it has evolved into the activity of reporting good news.
And for most people, Christmas refers to December 25, and Christmas Eve refers to December 24 as Christmas Eve, known as Christmas Eve, also known as Christmas Eve. At that time, thousands of Europeans and Americans will rush home to reunite. An indispensable program on Christmas night is a party or party. Most European and American family members gather at home for a sumptuous dinner, then sit around the roaring fire, play the piano and sing songs, and share family fun, or hold a special costume ball to celebrate Christmas Eve as a happy, peaceful, and revelry Christmas Eve and reunion night long. On Christmas night, parents will quietly prepare gifts for their children to put in stockings. The climax of Christmas Eve is the event held by Christ Church on Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve Mass is generally divided into two times, one at 9~10 p.m. for the congregation, and the other at midnight, which is the climax of Christmas Eve. The Midnight Mass ends at midnight, just as Christmas is approaching, often accompanied by the ringing of church bells, which rings forgiveness, blessings, joy and happiness for the world.
Madrigal was busy helping Zhang Man take care of dinner.
Tonight's Christmas dinner is a traditional American recipe featuring Christmas turkey, smoked ham, Christmas salmon, apple pie, Christmas pudding...
The main work is done by Zhang Man, such as the roast turkey with a very complicated process, and Madrigal just helps to mix some salad and the like, after all, the original Alan Mu did not show special skills in cooking, so Zhang Man did not dare to risk ruining an important night.
Next to the TV is a Christmas tree decorated with various trinkets of shepherds and bushes.
Mu Yun was sitting in the living room, performing "Christmas Eve" to his grandparents who came from afar.
“Silent-night,holy-night
All-is-calm,all-is-bright
Round-yon-Virgin-Mother-and-Child
Holy-Infant-so-tender-and-mild
Sleep-in-heavenly-peace
Sleep-in-heavenly-peace
。。。。。 ”
For the two elderly people who usually live in China, they almost couldn't understand what Mu Yun was singing, but as long as they looked at their granddaughter in front of them, they felt extremely happy.
There's nothing better than a family reunion at a holiday season.
The turkey is roasted.
The golden crispy skin seduces everyone.
No one can resist the charm of Christmas dinner, and even those who usually diet and lose weight will have an open belly tonight.
Gluttonous feast.
It's not the gluttony of the pit dad in "The Great Wall".
Dinner.
Dessert.
Hymn.
。。。
The Madrigal family celebrates the holiday season following the most traditional American Christmas customs.
9:00 p.m.
Mu Cong asked Madrigal and Mu Yun to hang their socks on their respective bedside and kissed them on the cheek, wishing them a good night.
Santa Claus will quietly put the presents in his Christmas stockings tonight while everyone is asleep.
There is no Santa Claus in this world, but Mu Yun is convinced of this.
Madrigal lay on the bed and quickly fell asleep.
He wanted a good night's sleep tonight.
-------------------------------------------------
“NO!!!!!!!!!!!”
Madrigal was woken up by a loud cry.
He quickly turned on the lights in his room and looked out the window.
The screams came from Pete's house opposite.
At this point, the screams coming from Pete's house woke up all the residents of the street.
One lamp after another came on, and soon the night was banished by the lights.
What's going on?
