In 1978, Men Lei Jingzhe.
Li Xiangdong woke up in a pool of blood and betrayal, returning to the turning point of his destiny.
In the last life, he was the sharpest knife in the hands of his brothers, and he was the most loyal person, but in the end he became a corpse at the bottom of the river.
In this life, the cold front moves inward.
He put away his fangs, hid his hatred, and remained the same silent and reliable person. On his brother's chessboard, he was willing to be a pawn across the river, but quietly laid out his own game.
From abandoned parts at the dock to meaningful inquiries at the police station; from timid technical geeks to greedy black market brokers. Every step is calculated, and every move is hidden with murderous intent.
What he wants is no longer false loyalty, but to drag the "brother" who once pushed him into the abyss, together with the huge shadow he weaved, inch by inch into the grave he dug himself.
This is a story of betrayal, rebirth and ruthless control. Watch how the chess pieces turn against the guest, setting off a silent and deadly undercurrent in the gray world of the late 1970s.
