   Hey everyone, it's your friendly neighborhood book recommender. The first book is "Su Ming's 100,000 Case Simulation Training: Perfect Success."

   Reader note

   The first book has no system. The protagonist has ninety-nine abnormal personalities. If left unattended, these personalities will resurface, causing the protagonist to become mentally ill. To eliminate these personalities, the only option is to use them to commit murder. The second book is a fake time-travel story with no system. The protagonist wakes up just as the police arrive to investigate a case, and the murder weapon hasn't been disposed of yet. The remaining two books both have systems, using accidents to create the perfect crime.
