The Haunted Night Market Stall

The protagonist, Chen Mo, works as a helper at Lao Zhou's Barbecue Stand in a night market in an urban village. In reality, he's a Night Watcher, a member of an ancient profession dedicated to dealing with "Scattered Entities" lurking amid the bustle of everyday life. By day, he grills skewers. At night, after closing up, he handles the uncanny beings attached to food, stalls, and even seasonings. Every incident he resolves earns him feedback in the form of "everyday vitality," strengthening his abilities.
