The System told me to solve crimes by selling jianbing, and I thought it was a joke. Until I made my first pancake and heard a voice in my head: “Customer identified as a fugitive. Host, arrest them immediately.” I stood there holding my pancake spatula, deep in thought, when the auntie at the next stall suddenly flipped her table and pulled out a gun. “Police! Don’t move!”
Just after I brought the fugitive in, the System issued another prompt: “Congratulations on unlocking a chain mission: the citywide wanted criminals’ breakfast map has been updated.”
The next day, staring at a line of the criminal world’s biggest stars, I broke out in a cold sweat. “Maybe… I should put some knockout drops in the pancakes?”
