I had known about the police investigation into me for a long time, and it was also within my expectations.

I had people keep an eye on the progress of the police investigation.

In the end, it was discovered that the police were basically going around in circles.

Although a lot of people were dispatched, they could only track the target's missing location each time.

Then they'll become like headless flies, running around aimlessly.

The direction of the investigation has almost nothing to do with me.

It's simply impossible to find any concrete clues about me.

and!

The location of the cliff cave in Taihang Mountains was provided by a believer.

I also sent several senior believers to inspect it, and they all praised the location as absolutely perfect.

It is simply the perfect shelter for us to build flesh and blood statues.

No matter how powerful the police are, it is impossible for them to find that small cliff cave in the 800-li Taihang Mountains, let alone catch us.

Therefore, for a long time, I didn't pay much attention to the police's movements.

I never expected it!

The police's progress suddenly became so fast.

Some time ago, Mingming was still conducting a search in a residential area in Baole City that had nothing to do with the case.

As a result, after only a few days of searching, they suddenly changed course and plunged into the Taihang Mountains.

The believers had no time to react and were caught off guard.

Moreover, they were surrounded by several police cordons, and they didn't even have a chance to evacuate.

The only thing I’m thankful for is that I wasn’t in the cliff cave at that time.

This may be the blessing of the Black Lotus God to me!

But I couldn't get into the police cordon, and naturally I couldn't control what was happening inside the cave.

I still had a glimmer of hope.

The cliff cave is so hidden that it is almost impossible to find it by luck unless someone specifically leads you to the entrance of the cliff cave.

Perhaps the police just happened to find clues about Taihang Mountains, so they came here to try their luck?

Maybe they can't find the cliff cave?

I soon realized that I was overthinking things.

The day after we blocked Taihang Mountains, I heard gunshots.

After that, a large number of believers were escorted out of the Taihang Mountains area.

It was obvious that the cliff cave had been discovered.

That was the first time I felt a sense of urgency.

Because I don’t understand why the police could accurately target the Taihang Mountains area.

I couldn't figure out what I had overlooked that led to the police discovering it.

These doubts magnified my inner panic.

I am worried that the vegetable shop where the patchwork bodies were stored might also be discovered.

The body of the Black Lotus God has been assembled, and I don't want to fail at the last step before I'm about to succeed.

So, I packed up the pieced-together body and some bottles and jars that I intended to use to make mummies and took them away overnight.

Put it in my place temporarily.

As it turns out, my concerns were very accurate.

Not long after I moved away, the police found the vegetable store again.

This time, I still don’t understand how the police did it.

I thought I was careful enough.

When going from one location to another, you don't usually go directly.

There will be some detours and changes in appearance along the way.

Furthermore, I will not leave items related to another location in one place.

So, normally speaking!

Even if the police found the cliff cave, it would be impossible for them to find the vegetable store through their discoveries in the cliff cave.

but!

The facts are right in front of us!

The reality is that the police not only found the cave, but also the vegetable shop the very next day.

Naturally, I became even more flustered.

I even wonder if there is anyone in the police force who has super powers.

Otherwise, how could they find my two bases in such a short time?

I was worried that the police would find my house in my hometown, Changgui Town, and discover my pieced-together body.

Therefore, I expedited the implementation of the follow-up plan.

Fortunately, my plastic surgery is basically completed.

All you need to do is remove the stitches one last time and make some minor adjustments to truly have the appearance of the Black Lotus God.

As long as I complete this step, I can fly away with my body.

I have successfully completed the two most crucial steps: piecing together the body of the Black Lotus God and undergoing plastic surgery to resemble her.

Next, I can go to the south and find a small town where no one knows me.

Then, just like before, find a few more followers of the Black Lotus Cult.

Let them help me complete the last step -

Attach my head to the body of the Black Lotus God.

The body was then mummified.

With such joyful anticipation, I went to the plastic surgery hospital to get the final treatment.

It seemed to me that my wish was almost coming true.

But unexpectedly, I had already reached a familiar intersection and could even see the entrance to the plastic surgery hospital!

A huge black shadow like a black bear rushed out from my side and pressed me to the ground.

The dark shadow pressed down on me, like an unshakeable boulder.

No matter how I struggled, I couldn't break free from the other party's restraints.

Then, I heard a voice that made me despair. Someone next to me introduced himself as a policeman.

I know it's over!

Despair filled my heart.

It’s not because I’m desperate about being caught!

But it’s because I know that my ideal can never be fulfilled.

I don’t understand!

Why at this time?

Why did I have to fail at the very last moment when I was about to succeed?

I don't understand why the police were so fast?

After I moved the body from the vegetable store, didn’t I deliberately follow Zhang Kexin to Baimashan and then show up?

Shouldn't the police be tracking Zhang Kexin now?

What I don’t understand even more is why the police arrested me?

I didn't do anything wrong!

Killing people and taking bodies sounds terrible.

But is it really bad?

Were the people I found really human?

In other words, does human being really exist?

In essence, they are all lotus roots!

I took a portion of those lotus roots and pieced them together to create the Black Lotus God.

What's wrong with this?

Just like, the chef makes lotus root into cold lotus root slices, fried lotus root, etc.

The diners then eat the food.

Are the chef and the diners guilty?

Is what I do fundamentally different from what chefs and diners do?

I don't think so!

I even let them return to the Black Lotus God and become a part of the Black Lotus God.

They should thank me!

How many believers dream of this, but are unable to achieve it due to their own limitations?

so!

Why are the police targeting me?

Why don't they understand me?

Why can't they let me fulfill my dream?
