Special forces soldier Lin Chen suddenly finds himself a conscript being punished with sentry duty. Desperate for a cigarette, he spots an old man outside the camp.
“Hey, could you buy me a pack of cigarettes?”
Lin Chen, who can't remember the last time he was stationed at a camp, calls out to him.
While waiting for the old man to return with the cigarettes, Lin Chen falls asleep because his new body's so frail. When he wakes up...
“Wait, did I transmigrate again? How did I become a Second Lieutenant?”
Looking at the Second Lieutenant's uniform on his body, Lin Chen falls into deep thought.
Years later, Lin Chen has earned one merit after another and is received by the military district commander.
The moment he sees the commander, Lin Chen can no longer keep his composure.
“Holy crap, it's you, old-timer!”
“Comrade, were those cigarettes from back then any good?”
the commander says with a hearty laugh.
