Chapter 149 Huo Yuheng doubts his life

Huo Yuheng originally thought that the Logistics Department of Bureau 749 was only responsible for logistics coordination, such as food, clothing, housing, transportation, and various subsidies.

But now, what is written on the document in his hand?

Pills, talismans, magic tools? !

There were even a lot of strange things that he didn't recognize at all.

Huo Yuheng looked confused, wondering if he had come to the wrong place and arrived in a completely unfamiliar world.

When Director Long opened the door, he saw Huo Yuheng, who looked doubtful about his life, and he immediately understood.

Any ordinary person who comes to Bureau 749 will have this expression.

But it doesn’t matter. After a while, they will know what Bureau 749 is.

"If you have any questions, please feel free to tell me. I will answer them one by one. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Long Weihua, the director of the 749 General Bureau. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future!"

Long Weihua said enthusiastically.

Huo Yuheng then came to his senses and quickly stood up to greet him.

"It's Director Long, nice to meet you!"

He smiled bitterly and said, "I am just an ordinary person. How could I have seen these strange things? I don't think that the work of the logistics department is something that ordinary people can do."

If he had known that the Logistics Department involved a completely unfamiliar area to him, he would never have agreed to come in.

Now, he was in a complete dark about both elixirs and magical weapons. He had no idea what to do and had no idea how to coordinate and deploy them.

What if the arrangement is wrong, wouldn’t it bring disgrace to Qinghuang?

At this moment, Huo Yuheng was not thinking about the Huo family's reputation.

He knew clearly that the 749th Bureau wanted him to come only for Huo Qinghuang's sake.

Otherwise, for an ordinary person like him who has lived for decades without any contact with Bureau 749, it doesn't make sense that he would still have this day when he is half buried in the earth.

"Minister Huo is new here, so you may not be able to adapt, but I believe that with your ability, you will be able to get started quickly."

Long Weihua said with a smile.

How could a shrewd man like him not understand the implication of Huo Yuheng's words?

But, he has already entered the 749th round, can we still let him out?

Huo Yuheng was not stupid either. After hearing these words, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.

Don't you guys welcome me?

Now what does this mean?

He suppressed his dissatisfaction and continued to be polite: "Thank you, Director Long, for your support!"

"This is as it should be. I hope Deputy Minister Huo doesn't feel slighted."

Long Weihua said apologetically.

He sat there for a long time but didn't see anyone come in, not even a cup of tea. This showed that the entire logistics department was instructed by Li Chengliang, and no one took the person in front of them seriously.

Thinking of this, Long Weihua's face darkened.

Li Chengliang has been in the Logistics Department for too long, and some people even dare to disobey his orders. It seems that there are too many things going on in the General Administration recently, which has caused some people to have thoughts that they shouldn't have.

Huo Yuheng was a man of great character. He immediately understood the hidden meaning of Long Weihua's words and looked at him in surprise.

I thought a mysterious department like Bureau 749 would be a monolithic entity, but I didn't expect it to have so many twists and turns.

He shook his head calmly and said no more.

Instead, Long Weihua was eager to get closer to him and introduced to him the current personnel structure and work priorities of the General Administration.

Special emphasis was placed on the fact that during the special period of the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, Bureau 749 must strengthen monitoring and prevention of supernatural events, and the logistics department must also not slack off and must ensure that supplies are complete at all times and work together to ensure the safety of the imperial capital.

Huo Yuheng listened carefully, raising questions and expressing his own opinions from time to time. Director Long was very satisfied with his attitude and suggestions.

Originally, Huo Yuheng was appointed as the deputy director of the logistics department of Bureau 749 just to win over Huo Qinghuang. Unexpectedly, Huo Yuheng's words and deeds really impressed him.

As expected of him being the head of the Huo family for many years, his keen insight alone is beyond the reach of others.

"Minister Huo, what do you think of our logistics department?"

Suddenly, Long Weihua changed the subject and asked.

Huo Yuheng was shocked. Could it be that he really had something he wanted to ask him to do?

"This, Huo is new here, I really don't know much, but judging by the people walking in a hurry, they should be very busy."

He spoke in a roundabout way, implying that he would soon be busy and would not have time to do anything else.

The corners of Long Weihua's mouth twitched.

That's why he doesn't like dealing with these big families.

No matter whether they are from an ancient martial arts family or wealthy businessmen, they all want to be careful when speaking and never feel tired.

Just as Long Weihua was about to speak, he was interrupted by a rapid knock on the door.

"Come in!"

He shouted.

After the door opened, a staff member ran in in a panic and said, "Director Long, it's bad. There's a supernatural fluctuation in an abandoned factory in the suburbs. The residents nearby feel a strong negative energy, and several people are missing."

Director Long's face changed, and he immediately stood up and said, "Notify the special operations team to set off immediately."

After saying that, he looked at Huo Yuheng and said, "Minister Huo, let's go and take a look together."

Huo Yuheng nodded and followed Long Weihua out of the office quickly.

On the way to the abandoned factory, Huo Yuheng felt a little nervous.

After all, he had never really come into contact with supernatural events, but he also knew that this was his first test after entering the 749th Bureau and he had to perform well.

After arriving at the abandoned factory, the surrounding atmosphere seemed particularly gloomy, and a pungent stench filled the air.

The members of the special operations team quickly launched a search, and Huo Yuheng followed behind Long Weihua, moving forward cautiously.

Suddenly, there was a cry of surprise from the front, and everyone rushed over, only to see a team member lying on the ground, his face pale, his body shaking constantly, and he was muttering: "Ghost, Ghost King..."

Director Long frowned and walked forward to check on the team member. He found that his body had been corroded by Yin energy and two of his three souls had gone, leaving only the human soul.

At this time, Huo Yuheng noticed some strange footprints on the ground. The footprints were oddly shaped and only the front half was visible. They did not look like ordinary human footprints.

He squatted down and observed the footprints carefully, with an ominous premonition in his heart.

Just then, a cold wind blew, the temperature in the abandoned factory dropped sharply, and everyone couldn't help but shiver.

Suddenly, a dark shadow jumped out from the corner and pounced towards Huo Yuheng who was closest to him.

Huo Yuheng was shocked and subconsciously took a step back.

Just as the black shadow was about to pounce on him, a golden light emanated from the pendant on his neck. The black shadow seemed to be extremely frightened and fled away instantly, disappearing back into the darkness.

Everyone was stunned by this sudden scene.

Director Long looked at Huo Yuheng in surprise and said, "Minister Huo, where did you get this treasure? It's quite powerful."

Huo Yuheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and secretly felt lucky that it was thanks to the amulet his daughter gave him, otherwise he would have been in danger just now.
