During the 1920s, a luxurious hotel known as the goddess hotel could be found on the outskirts of Shanghai, situated on the shores of Tiannu Lake. The hotel was established by Jin Dong Lin, who had recently returned from studying abroad. The establishment was frequented by prominent individuals and was adorned with bright lights, with a grand hall featuring an eight-armed goddess statue, reminiscent of Mount Xumi. Tragedy struck three years into Jin Dong Lin's marriage when his lifeless body was discovered floating in a pool of white lotus, bearing wounds from the eight sharp weapons of the goddess. As investigations unfolded, the women in his life were unmasked one by one: the hotel manager, showgirl, cleaner, female star, writer, widow, and original wife. Along the shores of Tiannu Lake, blood stained the white lotus flowers, the goddess remained silent, her arms empty.
