Chapter 967

After the end of World War II in 1945, a large number of soldiers returned to the United States, making 1946 the beginning of the baby boom in the United States.

In 1946, 3.4 million babies were born in the United States. In the following 18 years, more than 75.9 million babies were born in the United States, accounting for about one-third of the total population of the United States. David Mills was born during that time .

People are used to using skyscrapers to symbolize the United States. Indeed, the United States is the first country in the world to build skyscrapers. The earliest skyscrapers were born in Chicago, USA in the 1880s. The main purpose was to alleviate the land shortage in urban areas.

Later, as a large number of soldiers returned to China, employment became a problem. The purpose of building skyscrapers changed from alleviating the shortage of urban land to alleviating employment pressure. Later, building skyscrapers became a dual challenge to construction technology and the psychological quality of workers.

When Mills and Trish first arrived in New York, they were looking for a house. In the old photos of the New York Museum, you can see construction workers sitting on high-altitude beams eating. It's like eating on flat ground, without any safety equipment.

Mills' father was a man of that era, and he could see the shadow of his father's work from those construction workers, but he did not die from an accident while working at heights, but from stomach cancer. He died peacefully on his bed, Didn't nearly die next to a dumpster on the street like David did.

That time was the golden age of the United States. Men were different from the Prohibition era. They didn't pick up guns to fight gangsters. They put down their guns and picked up welding torches for a better life. Everything was so prosperous.

Boys basically have a dream of being a hero, but when Mills was growing up, there were no superheroes. His "hero" was his father. It's just that after World War II, the purpose of the United States' foreign wars was not so "just". His father did not allow him to join the army, and he was not very good at reading, and he didn't have so many skyscrapers to build, so Mills applied for the police academy and became a policeman.

Al Capone was a very charismatic Mafia leader who could host a feast and beat his "guests" to death with a club, and as long as he wasn't messed with, he was a very easy guy to get along with, and people would Willing to be close to him, he also pays taxes to the federal government on time.

Mills doesn't know what Anthony did to make the FBI target him. What can a psychiatrist who eats with a chick do? But this is Los Angeles. The screenwriter's imagination and plots often come from life, and life is even more twists and turns than the plot written by the screenwriter.

After the tape recording the murmur was processed by the technician, a short meowing sound could be heard, which lasted only about a second or two. The previous murmur contained a woman's painful moan.

That voice sounded just like the girl in Germany whose exorcism was taped, not to mention the necklace made of human teeth.

This case can be closed by suicide, and O'Sullivan does not need to work overtime.

They just want to know what happened in that brief 1 minute and 15 seconds.

Even the police don't always have cases like this, and if someone looks through the file one day and finds they've been sloppy, it might lead to other troubles.

Compared with Mills who dared to work hard, O'Sullivan is more stable. In other words, he is not aggressive. It is not easy to climb to his current position. If he loses his job or even his pension due to an oversight, it will not be worthwhile.

"This is not a necklace." After seeing the real thing, through the evidence bag, Anthony said on a whim.

"Really? What could it be if it's not a necklace?" O'Sullivan asked pretending to be surprised.

"Rosary beads," said Anthony.

"Like the rosary beads Buddha used?" Mills asked.

Anthony didn't make a sound, but O'Sullivan rolled his eyes.

"It's the Catholic rosary, which is used to recite the rosary. I asked the priest of the parish, and he said that the Latin that Angela recited is 'Though the forests of Egypt cannot pass through, the enemy will cut them down, because they are more than locusts, and they are invincible." Number, my servant Jacob, do not be afraid! For I will save you from afar', this is an excerpt from the Bible, the story of the prophet Jeremiah, when the Babylonian army captured Jerusalem, Jeremiah watched his prophecy come true, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Daniel, and Ezekiel were taken captive to Babylon, but he stayed in Jerusalem, and the Jews who stayed in Jerusalem rebelled against Babylon, and Jeremiah was forced to flee with them to Egypt, where he was martyred.”

"You are very familiar with this aspect." Anthony looked at O'Sullivan and said.

"I said what the priest said." O'Sullivan scratched his face, looking a little embarrassed, and Mills looked at him with an expression on his face that was about to throw up.

"Have you ever been to Stratford?" Anthony asked.

"Where?" Mills and O'Sullivan asked together.

"There are three Stratfords in Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom. This city is said to be the birthplace of Shakespeare. Every year, many pilgrims visit Stratford. In a corner of the cemetery, there is an oak box. A King James Bible, the first version of the Bible, the 46th letter of the 46th chapter of that version is 'shake', the penultimate 46th letter is 'speare', put them together is 'shakespeare', this chapter is written It is also the story of Jeremiah, the Nile will surge, the mountains will tremble, and that day will be the day of vengeance of the LORD Almighty. Some say this is a coincidence in the history of literature. Others think that William Shakespeare did not exist at all , his works were collectively created by the British aristocracy."

"So?" O'Sullivan and Mills asked ignorantly.

"During the reign of James I, he considered himself a messenger of God. His mother, Mary Stuart, liked assassination very much. She killed her husband and later fled from Scotland to England, where she tried to assassinate Elizabeth I and was executed. , before you said 'he is in danger', could this 'he' not refer to Skater and Ethan, but someone else."

"You say the 'Messenger of God' is in danger?" Mills asked.

"I don't know, but I did hear he was very ill this time," Anthony said.

"Wait, are you talking about the Pope of the Vatican?" O'Sullivan asked.

Mills and Anthony look at him together.

"This is crazy," O'Sullivan screamed.

"Mary I once threatened Elizabeth I, Queen of Innocence. If Elizabeth did not make Mary the heir to the throne, she would unite with foreign kings and convert Protestant Britain to Catholicism. Elizabeth I and her most loyal adviser William Cecil Discussed, it was decided to tell Mary Stuart that if she changed her plans to marry a foreign prince and married a British nobleman, she would be considered as heir. Elizabeth I's idea was very risky, which meant that if she did not give birth to a legal heir Mary would have been Queen of England before she died, but if she could choose for Mary a Protestant husband she could control and prevent England from becoming Catholic again, Robert Dudley would be perfect."

"Please speak humanly," Mills said impatiently.

"Jeremiah shed tears because he knew that people were far away from God. If they get close to God again, will there still be disputes between Protestants and Catholics? The Pope was once assassinated."

"How could a 17-year-old silly girl know so much?" O'Sullivan asked dumbfounded.

"This is another question. How can a girl who can't speak Spanish speak Latin suddenly? Do you believe she is possessed by a demon?"

"Oh, my God!" O'Sullivan said painfully.

"Didn't you say she was faking it?" Mills asked tremblingly.

"At the end of the 19th century, séance ceremonies were popular in Britain, and the supporters were often women." Anthony rubbed the bridge of his nose and said, "Perhaps Angela is not possessed by the devil, but she is as afraid of fate as Jonah."

"Everyone is very tired, let's go back and rest today." O'Sullivan said.

Mills turned and walked away, like he couldn't wait to get out of this place.

"Maybe the lunatic asylum is more normal than here." He muttered, his voice was not loud enough to be heard by the two of them.
