He Bingjun frowned, looking troubled.
When he arrived, his grandfather gave him some instructions. As the eldest son, he didn't need to do everything himself. He just needed to sit in the office, answer the phone, play games, arrange the daily routines, and delegate tasks. It was easier than coaxing the little cuties in kindergarten to eat and sleep.
Before being forced into this position, He Bingjun was a teacher at a private kindergarten in Shanghai, and also a demon hunter who didn't really take his job seriously. He genuinely didn't care much about this prestigious bureau chief position. In his words, he was merely a link between the supernatural world and the government.
That year, He Bingquan broke his leg. Medical conditions were extremely poor at the time. Although the broken leg was reattached, he couldn't engage in strenuous exercise. His family felt extremely guilty towards him and didn't force him to inherit the family business, letting him do as he pleased. He had good talent and loved Taoist magic. Although he didn't have the top-tier family resources to cultivate like He Bingquan, under his grandfather's guidance, his cultivation level was still quite respectable.
When he grew up, his grandfather said that being a demon slayer was a high-risk profession. Although his legs could walk normally, it would be difficult for him to escape in critical moments, so he let him choose his main job and his secondary job as an unofficial demon slayer.
After thinking it over, He Bingjun decided to become a kindergarten teacher.
Before coming to the Special Security Bureau, his grandfather instructed him not to be a coward. If there was trouble, the employees should handle it; if not, let the employees do it. If he had to intervene, he should stay behind the employees; survival was the priority, and he should never roll up his sleeves and do it himself. Moreover, He Qing's uncle had also said that he didn't need to worry about so much; he should just follow the rules that the Security Bureau had previously established.
He Bingjun thought to himself: That's right, if we follow the rules, nothing will go wrong.
The Special Security Bureau has explicit regulations that once a new demon is discovered, its species must first be identified and a record made. Then, the news is communicated to subordinates and various sects, who are tasked with searching for the demon's whereabouts and recording its aura and whether it has ever committed a crime.
If nothing is illegal, then everyone can wash up, go to sleep, and do whatever they need to do.
Thinking of this, He Bingjun's eyes crinkled with laughter, and he immediately categorized He Bingquan as belonging to the pig race.
He gave a disdainful smile, with a hint of schadenfreude.
That cunning and despicable man thought the entire Special Security Bureau was run by the He family, allowing him to act as he pleased and do whatever he wanted. He didn't follow the rules, and now he's met his match—serves him right...
Putting aside his disdain for He Bingquan, He Bingjun sat up straight, immediately turned on his computer, and checked the bureau's records related to Tengshe.
After looking through it for a while, he raised his eyebrows and immediately felt relieved.
Great, no need to worry about Tengshe's boss anymore. Tengshe's registration information is complete, and even the procedure of sending people to record its aura has been completed.
Wash up and go to sleep. As long as Tengshe doesn't cause trouble, he'll only meddle when he's had too much to eat.
He Bingquan, that pig, all body and no brain. He thinks he's the boss because of his little skill. Little does he know, Huo Fei has made it clear that he doesn't want the Special Security Bureau to continue investigating Teng She. Instead of backing down, he's like a idiot, openly provoking the boss.
Hmph, he wouldn't be as stupid as him.
When he came out, his grandfather gave him many instructions. Huo Fei was not to be trifled with; not only that, but he also had to make things convenient for him without breaking the rules.
When Huo Fei was mentioned, Grandpa's expression showed not only apprehension but also a hidden unease. He didn't know the reason, but he always listened to Grandpa.
He Bingjun stretched and prepared to turn off his computer and go to sleep.
Before going to sleep, he posted a message on the Special Security Bureau's app, asking everyone to be on the lookout for strange events in major cities that night. If any were found, they were to take their assigned tasks and safely escort the "lost" ghosts from the underworld back home.
Today is the Ghost Festival, when the gates of hell are wide open. In previous years, many ghosts who came out of the underworld on holiday would get lost because the cities had changed so much. Unable to find their way home, they would go and bother other people instead.
Feeling completely relaxed, He Bingjun washed up and went to bed. The Tengshe incident, which had caused quite a stir, was thus resolved through proper procedures. Several demon hunters waiting for further instructions in the desert waited and waited, but never received their mission.
A group of people were gratified, thinking to themselves: This newly appointed bureau chief is really good at keeping his composure.
If it were He Bingquan, he would probably have issued the task overnight.

Under the night sky, the stars twinkled.
In Qingcheng, an unusual fluctuation suddenly erupted. High in the sky, a powerful force suddenly pressed down. Streetlights, as if drawn by some kind of magnetic field, flickered rapidly, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.
A piercing crackling sound of electricity rang out, the city lights suddenly went out, and the entire city was plunged into darkness in an instant.
Fortunately, darkness fell in the middle of the night, when people were fast asleep, and only a few night owls witnessed the change.
Those people shuddered, and then, belatedly realizing it was the Ghost Festival, they shrank back, shouting in twos and threes, and quickly fled back home.
In the pitch-black underground parking garage, a deep voice suddenly rang out. Immediately afterward, a streak of blue light flashed by, the air instantly distorted, and a huge black hole suddenly appeared in the darkness.
As soon as the black hole appeared, the blue light instantly entered it.
Just as the black hole was about to disappear, another beam of light shot out from the entrance of the parking garage and disappeared into the black hole.
Within the newly opened alien realm, a deafening dragon's roar suddenly resounded, followed by the appearance of a terrifying beast with enormous wings on its back. The moment it appeared, it angrily pounced on the person standing in mid-air.
