Chapter 707 Charity
The sound of gunfire echoed in the wilderness, much louder than Gao Ming had expected, and his ears began to hurt.

Looking at the driver with a big hole in the back of his head and his entire face blown off, Gao Ming did not feel the slightest bit of guilt in his eyes. If it weren't for the Blood City tattoo engraved on his body, he would have been unconscious along with Wu Wei.

"Don't be careless, be careful of capsizing in the ditch."

After taking off the taxi driver's clothes, Gao Ming was worrying about how to deal with the body. Unexpectedly, when he opened the trunk, he found it was filled with various tools for dealing with corpses, including gloves, corpse solvents, hemolytic agents, deodorizers, masks, body bags, etc.

"Is this a professional killer who drives a taxi part-time?"

It took Gao Ming half an hour to clean up the car and he threw the driver's body directly into the river bend.

After checking the route, Gao Ming drove Wu Wei to the second block.

Compared to the chaotic Third Block, the roads in the Second Block were clean and tidy, with banners calling for truth, goodness and beauty everywhere. Even late at night, there were businesses open, making Gao Ming feel as if he had returned to reality.

"In Li Sansi's memory, the Second Block was very rich, with per capita wealth ranking in the top three among all the blocks. The citizens here value order and civilization, hate violence, and admire art. But he could never figure out why the Second Block was so rich. Where did their money come from?"

Li Sansi was confused, and Gao Ming was also confused. He had just slowed down the car when a strange man in a yellow chemical protective suit suddenly emerged from the alley next to him.

The other person was a burly man wearing a pure white mask. He approached the taxi, pointed at the driver's seat where Gao Ming was sitting, and threw a business card into the window.

"Cleaning company?" Gao Ming drove with one hand and picked up the business card: "That guy could tell at a glance that there was a dead person in the driver's seat? I remember that after Black Ao killed someone in the hotel, he called the cleaning company and asked them to deal with the body."

Looking back again, the strange man wearing the pure white mask had disappeared.

"Director Li, where are we?" Wu Wei woke up in a daze. When she opened her eyes, she saw Gao Ming driving the car: "Huh? Where's the driver?"

"I'm going to the river bend to fish at night." Gao Ming casually put the business card into his pocket: "Wait for me in the car. I'm going to meet someone."

Gao Ming found a place to park his car near the Sacred Heart Chapel. He originally wanted to walk there to avoid all surveillance, but he didn't expect that even in the late night, there were still many "believers" kneeling and praying in the chapel, and he couldn't get around it at all.

"Councilor Jimei, please save us! My daughter has been missing for three days!"

"My heart is not sincere, it is still not sincere. God, please forgive my foolishness!"

"Parliamentary arbitration has deprived me of everything. I was wronged! They colluded with each other and were in cahoots with each other. I am wronged!"

Most of those kneeling here to pray are lower-class citizens who have nowhere else to go. If Gao Ming had not taken over Li Sansi's body, Director Li would probably have also been kneeling among that group of people, more "devout" than anyone else.

The chapel is divided into two floors, the outer floor is occupied by citizens praying, with almost no place to stand. The inner area where Councillor Ci Mei is located is very quiet as no one dares to go there.

"You can't hear her even if you shout here." Gao Ming handed a few pieces of paper to an old man who was spitting blood. The old man not only pushed Gao Ming away and rejected his kindness, but also hit himself on the chest several times, causing more blood to seep out of the corners of his mouth.

"Go away! Councillor Ci Mei cannot bear to see the misery of the world. The more pitiful a person is, the more likely she will help him." The old man scolded Gao Ming. "Is there no other way to see her? Why do you have to humiliate yourself like this?"

"Yes, Councillor Ci Mei advocates using the power of the mind to fight against the evil within, and rejects all inhibitory drugs. If you can throw the inhibitory drugs into the guilt box in front of everyone, and then go to the confessional to sincerely ask for forgiveness, Councillor Ci Mei might meet with you."

"Malicious suppression drugs are very expensive. They can save lives for many people. Only by using them as a ticket can you have a chance to see the real person. This Congresswoman Cimei is so arrogant." Gao Ming didn't believe what these brainwashed people said. He walked through the crowd to the guilt box at the boundary between the inside and outside of the building. It was a huge black box covered with thick cloth, so you couldn't see what was inside.

Gao Ming took out a seed of the life flower and hid it in his hand. He then stretched his entire arm into the black box. He searched for a long time but felt nothing, so he let go.

"No one can see it, how do they know if what I threw out is an inhibitor? Unless the box is connected to other places and someone is guarding it." Gao Ming muttered in his heart, and the praying people around him all looked at him with envy.

Ten minutes passed before a long-haired man in white priest's robes appeared and motioned Gao Ming to come over.

After following the pastor for a long time, Gao Ming still did not enter the chapel. Instead, he was taken to a place similar to a cabinet, which was separated by wooden boards on both sides and had a small hole in the middle.

"You can confess here. If you are sincere enough, God will guide you." The pastor said and left. Gao Ming entered the confessional and closed the door.

It was narrow and dark, and suddenly a voice came from next to him: "Don't hide anything, confess all the sins you have committed."

Gao Ming would certainly not do such a thing that would completely expose the darkness in his heart. He knocked on the wall of the cabinet and found a book-sized hole on the left hand side, through which he could pass some things.

"If you are not unable to speak, you can also write them all down and give them to me. Only by facing the darkness in your heart can you have the opportunity to embrace the light."

"I think you'd better take me to see Councillor Cimei. I'm here to discuss something with her."

"You are full of sins that have not yet been washed away..."

"Okay, okay, give this to Councillor Ci Mei and say that an old friend is visiting." Gao Ming handed over some of the evidence Wan Sheng had through the small hole: "I advise you not to peek, it could kill someone."

The confessional became quiet again. A few minutes later, a secret door behind Gao Ming opened and a sweet female voice sounded: "Hello, Councillor Ci Mei has just finished work and is waiting for you in Office No. 1."

Turning his head, Gao Ming saw two dark holes. The girl had a good bone structure and should have been a great beauty, but unfortunately her face was disfigured and her eyes were gouged out.

"What do you call it?"

"You can just call me Ci Tong. I am my mother's adopted child." Although the girl lost both eyes, she did not touch anything. She was very familiar with the building behind her, as if she had walked here countless times.

Entering the passage behind the secret door, Gao Ming felt a chill in his heart. He felt like he had been walking for a long time before light finally appeared in front of him.

A kind and dignified woman with her long hair tied up behind her head was sitting at the table. Her actual age should be over 50 years old, but she looked like she was in her early 30s. Her skin was without any wrinkles and she exuded a holy and majestic beauty.
