Graduate Rejects 996, Becomes a Bounty Hunter

Graduate Rejects 996, Becomes a Bounty Hunter Plot:

Lin Xiaoman, a fresh graduate, turns down a soul-crushing 996 office job and stumbles into the world of local bounty hunters—tracking lost pets, recovering debts, or finding cherished mementos. Her first mission hits a snag: she’s hired to find an elderly man’s cat, the last keepsake from his late wife, but the cat’s been seized by a pet shop owner demanding a ransom. To add to her woes, her parents arrive, furious she’s not pursuing a "real job," and a seasoned hunter named "Old Gun" mocks her as an amateur. Lin fights back: she uses the elderly man’s poignant memories to uncover the shop owner’s hidden guilt (his sister once regretted losing a pet), convinces her parents with the real problems she’s solved for others, and retrieves the cat after three rainy nights of stakeout. When she hands the cat to the man, she not only heals the shop owner’s regret but also makes everyone realize: office jobs aren’t the only valid path. And her bounty hunter journey? It’s just beginning.
