Advent Towers

Don’t you just love those Christmas-time crime sprees?
Burglars were going through the old apartment building like an Advent calendar.
They robbed each apartment in numerical order, leaving a small chocolate candy and thoughtful Bible verse on the floor for the residents to discover when they returned.
After the third burglary, the cops actually followed up on their promise to send a patrol by to check on things, but they just missed the burglars.
So, the next night, they had a patrolman waiting in the fifth apartment.
They found him bound and gagged the next morning, chocolate in his mouth.

    “I guess we could turn down the reality dampers a bit.”
    “The what?”
    “The reality dampers. They help the workers stay sane with all the Christmas music and talk about Rudolf and all. The dial down the fantastic.”
    “Well they have to come down.”
    “Ok, just step into my office to discuss it. It is just off the lobby.”

    Advent Towers, chapter 2

    On the next night, the police hid in the sixth apartment. And on the morning of the seventh day, one reporter remarked, why did the police officers stuff all those chocolates up the burglers nose?

    No on spoke till another reporter picked up a bible verse and read. Then he said, “…and God saw that it was good.”
