An hour later.
Sirens blared from all directions, red and blue lights flashing in succession.
Patrol officers arrived at the scene with grave expressions.
While they surveyed the area and questioned witnesses, two or three members of the Cleaning Squad appeared as well, efficiently washing away the bloodstains, examining the bodies, and transporting them.
Lu Chao sat inside a black Ruiguang sedan parked in a corner across the street. Its windows were covered with dark privacy film, and he remained hidden throughout, never showing himself as he silently watched everything unfold.
The Cleaning Squad workers were not people they knew, and before long, every corpse had been cleared away.
Zhou Qiang found a Hongyi Society member living nearby to handle all the Patrol Bureau's questions, pretending he had merely happened upon the scene. Before calling the police, he had also dealt with certain details on the corpse, concealing some of his own traces.
Although the nearby residents had been disturbed, no one knew he was here.
"The Patrol Bureau has its own laboratory. They can determine whether the corpse is connected to a god-worshipping cult."
Inside the car, Chen Junhao sat beside him and had watched the entire process as well.
"With them involved, the missing persons case should yield some clues. Whoever has their eye on you will definitely be somewhat wary too."
"If you stay out of sight, you can confuse them and buy yourself some time."
Lu Chao nodded at that. This had been the result of the three of them discussing it.
Though he did not know why the other side had come after him, it was obvious that someone had already set their sights on him.
Only by involving the Patrol Bureau could they throw the matter into maximum confusion, disrupt their line of sight,
