Chapter 24 Fat Order: Target Changsheng Hall
Lincheng, Wanhe Building.
Hongye was wearing the professional attire favored by urban white-collar workers. The dark blue suit jacket was well-tailored and had smooth lines, with a pure white shirt underneath.
Her hair was carefully combed into a low ponytail, revealing her smooth forehead and clear facial features.
Unfortunately, the frosty look on his delicate face was too scary, and none of the men passing by dared to take a second look.
"bite"
The elevator stopped at the 28th floor.
This entire floor belongs to a company called Yunshan Securities.
Of course, in the world of the Awakened, it has another name...
[Hunter Guild] Branch.
Hongye took a step forward and opened the door of the [Logistics Department] aggressively.
"Xiaoye, you're here..."
The speaker is Gu He, a middle-aged man in his forties. His body looks slightly bloated and has a big belly. Under the high hairline, a few sparse hair hangs stubbornly.
"One month..."
"I've been looking for you for a whole month."
Hongye's eyes were frighteningly cold. She pressed her hands on the desk in front of Gu He and gritted her teeth and said, "There is a problem with the information in the chemical plant. According to the rules, the person who provided the information must come out and take responsibility."
"When are you going to give me an explanation?"
Gu He shrank his neck in fear, not daring to look into Hong Ye's eyes, and said with a guilty conscience, "Xiao Ye, I have reported this matter a long time ago, but the situation... is a bit complicated."
Hong Ye flipped his right hand slightly, pulled out a cold long sword, pointed it directly at Gu He, and said calmly, "I almost died in that mission because of the false information you gave me!"
The long sword was already pressed against Gu He's throat, and the cold touch scared him to the point where he couldn't move.
"Lao Gu, you said that if I kill you accidentally on impulse, what will the president do to me?"
Gu He swallowed subconsciously, but his Adam's apple scratched the blade of the sword. The cold touch made cold sweat flow from his forehead.
"Xiaoye... don't be like this. I also followed orders from above. If I had known that there was a problem with the intelligence, I would have warned you. You believe me!"
Hong Ye stared at Gu He quietly and said quietly, "Is it Liu Yuchen?"
Gu He dared not speak, but in many cases, silence can also explain a lot of problems...
Hongye put away her sword and pushed open the door of the logistics department without saying a word.
"Xiaoye, Xiaoye, don't be impulsive. After all, the vice president is the top person in charge of the Lincheng branch. If you kill him like this, he will find a subordinate to take the blame. Instead, you will be blamed for contradicting your superiors."
"And he also knows that what he did this time is not fair. He specifically asked me to leave a good job for you. The information this time is absolutely true. The target is a first-order awakened person, but the reward was three crystal cores."
Gu He dragged his fat body, stopped the angry Hongye in a flash, and said hurriedly.
"First-order awakened person? Three crystal cores?" Hongye turned his head and stared at Gu He with an idiot look.
"It's absolutely true. The mission was sent by Jubao Pavilion. You know, they will send us missions directly beyond the ghost studio. Usually it's a shady business."
Gu He held the door and took two deep breaths. The rush just now was so intense that he couldn't recover.
"The mission...the goal of the mission is to capture a first-order awakened person alive. He is...in the Changshengtang Funeral Parlor. As long as he is alive...for you, isn't this a free crystal core? Deputy? The president is able to offer such a big advantage, which can be regarded as a great investment. "
"Changshengtang Funeral Parlor?" This name reminded Hongye of that person inexplicably...
No way...
She frowned slightly and asked tentatively, "Is the owner of the funeral parlor called... Lu Changsheng?"
"Well, how do you know?" Gu He finally breathed more and spoke more fluently, "Speaking of this, Lu Changsheng is a bit strange. The information about him is actually worth A level in Guizhai. I don't know. Is it because Guizhai’s business has been bad recently and he has started to learn how to kill people? The amount of information we trade with them every year is not a small sum! "
Ignoring Gu He's complaints, Hongye raised the corners of his mouth quietly and soon regained his composure.
She said calmly, "I don't want this task. I won't accept any more tasks until I investigate the Qinghua Factory. Help me tell Liu Yuchen that he can arrange whoever he wants to go."
After that, she opened the door of the office and left gracefully.
"Xiaoye, this is a fat man, do you really don't want it?" Gu He muttered in surprise as he looked at Hongye's leaving figure.
Little did he know that Hongye's face had already put on an expression of gloating...
...
The night is getting darker.
Lu Changsheng didn't know yet that his young apprentice had been targeted. He was sitting with Lu Jiangming in the Wild Dog Bar, chatting wordlessly.
"Old Lu, what have you been busy with this month? I can't even see a single person." Lu Changsheng inquired knowingly.
Lu Jiangming drank all the beer in the cup and said "Ah" happily, and said helplessly, "Don't mention it, I'm busy with cult matters. I can't say the details, but it's over. What's left?" It’s all finishing touches.”
Lu Changsheng didn't care about the life or death of the cult. He just wanted to know whether his stealing peaches had been exposed.
"I heard that the cult purchased a lot of crystal cores? I couldn't buy crystal cores before. Is it because of them?" Lu Changsheng probed carefully.
"Well, most of them have been recovered, but a small number of fourth-order crystal cores are missing. The superiors suspected that there was a traitor among us and leaked the information, so they..."
Lu Jiangming suddenly realized that he seemed to have said too much, so he quickly grabbed the wine glass, took a few sips, and abruptly interrupted the topic.
Lu Changsheng was secretly happy when he saw that he was not exposed.
He silently reminded himself that next time he does such shady work, he must remember to hide his identity.
Otherwise sooner or later the car will overturn...

Lu Changsheng was stunned.
He only felt a warm current in his body spreading from his Dantian and rushing straight to his whole body.
It was like washing marrow and cutting bones, strengthening his body.
Lu Changsheng felt a sense of relief all over his body, and he almost couldn't hold back a moan.
He suppressed his excitement and felt the changes in his body.
Although Lu Changsheng's previous strength was far beyond that of ordinary people, when facing high-level awakeners, he could not even break through the energy shield.
But now, he is confident that he can pierce the old man's shield with one knife while turning on [Wrath of Revenge]. He no longer needs to wait for the other party to give him a chance!
"No wonder all skills after LV3 require crystal cores to assist in training."
"The gap between LV3 and LV4 is wider than the first three levels combined!"
"Even the unit of measurement has been changed from humans to demons."
Lu Changsheng was shaking with excitement. In order to conceal his inner excitement, he quickly grabbed the wine glass and took several sips.
So cool! ! ! !
Prostitution for nothing! !
Unfortunately, the system didn't give him much time to celebrate.
The cold tone came again.
