In recent years, Celestial City has been quite unstable. Various mysterious incidents and cult activities have occurred, and although it seems like things haven't reached an irreparable stage, the continuous occurrences clearly indicate that there is an organized group behind them, acting cautiously.
The Night Patrol has been investigating all along. Tracking the Lickers last time was difficult, but once it reached Li Xin, it stopped. According to Luo Jin's plan, it was to drive the Lickers away, applying continuous pressure until the Lickers lead them to the organization behind them.
Of course, this is just a hopeful idea from Luo Jin, with a very low chance of success. The organization capable of creating Lickers would likely anticipate this, as those who worship the Evil God are the most troublesome.
