In the blink of an eye, Zhang Hui went from the hotel suite in the peninsula to the gate of a rural courtyard. He carefully felt the texture of his buttocks and thought, "Hmm, it's a sturdy wooden bench."

[Does the host wish to "detach" from the feelings of the previous world, retaining only memories and experiences?]

Without even consciously thinking, they had already skillfully clicked the detach button.

He only had time to process Cheng Cai's memories and experiences from the past ten years, and before he could even check the latest information on the system interface, he saw Shi Jin in front of him frantically saying, "Oh! Thank you! Thank you!"

It seems the enthusiastic distribution of cigarettes by the nearby villagers has left this unassuming soldier a bit flustered.

After picking up the cigarette from the ground, Shi Jin kept saying, "Thank you! Don't throw it away, don't throw it away." He then began to explain his purpose.

"I'm here for a home visit, not to say that just because I'm here, your child will be able to join the army, okay?"

He then turned to Village Chief Cheng and nodded, before continuing, "This is just one part of the entire conscription screening process."

As soon as Shi Jin sat down, a fellow villager in the courtyard came up to him and asked, "Hey, sir, are you a soldier or an officer?"

"Yes, I'm just a soldier," Shi Jin replied without any hesitation.

Seeing how easy he was to talk to, another of Cheng Cai's childhood friends also asked, "Is this tank and this tractor driven the same way?"

"This..." Shi Jin was speechless, unsure how to answer.

Before he could say anything more, another enthusiastic villager threw him a cigarette and, without any sense of propriety, asked, "How much do you earn in a month?"

Shi Jin was overwhelmed and glanced back at Cheng Cai's father. Village Chief Cheng immediately spoke up, "Alright, alright. Everyone, stop talking. We can discuss any questions later, okay?"

Zhang Hui glanced at Shi Jin, who seemed somewhat helpless with the loose cigarette in his hand, and... almost burst out laughing.

But then he heard Village Chief Cheng's voice again, "The People's Liberation Army comrades are visiting Cheng Cai's family, ah~"

"Comrade of the People's Liberation Army," Village Chief Cheng said, turning to Shi Jin as he seized the opportunity.

"Yes, here!" Shi Jin responded reflexively.

This put Village Chief Cheng in an awkward position, and he immediately said, "No, no, no, let's ask my Cheng Cai instead!"

Shi Jin placed the cigarettes he had neatly arranged on the bench in front of him, picked up his notebook, and said, "Okay!"

"Chengcai~, Chengcai!" Village Chief Cheng shouted.

The first time Zhang Hui was called by his name, he didn't react. It wasn't until the second time that he responded.

Fortunately, out of consideration for the person sitting on the same bench, Zhang Hui did not stand up. He simply replied, "Oh, yes!" and then reminded the person sitting next to him before standing up.

[The plot has changed due to the host's actions; 2 unallocated points will be awarded as a reward!]

Here it is! Even though it's only 2 points, Zhang Hui doesn't mind at all. Accumulating small gains is also part of his early strategy.

Immediately afterward, Village Chief Cheng stood up and said to Zhang Hui beside him, "Tell the People's Liberation Army uncles why you want to join the army?"

Zhang Hui almost burst out laughing when he heard how his father addressed Shi Jin.

"I'm not some People's Liberation Army uncle~" Fortunately, Shi Jin said the same thing at the same time, which made Zhang Hui suppress his laughter.

"Cheng...Chengcai, huh...I also wanted to ask you a question. Your dad said your grades are good enough to get into university." Shi Jin didn't seem to notice Zhang Hui's laughter and spoke naturally about what he knew.

"Yes, yes, yes!" The village chief next to him quickly confirmed.

"Then why did you choose to give up the college entrance examination and enlist in the army instead?" After Shi Jin asked, Village Chief Cheng looked at his son with a proud expression and nudged Zhang Hui's arm, signaling him to answer properly.

Zhang Hui knew he definitely couldn't say Cheng Cai's classic lines; those would only make people cringe so badly they'd dig their toes into the ground.

Furthermore, the plan is to expose Shi Jin to a different kind of talent, and to help this squad leader develop his own unique personality so that his subsequent antics won't seem out of place.

"Yes, why? Tell me!" Just as Zhang Hui was thinking about how to answer, Shi Jin threw out another question.

Zhang Hui glanced at Village Chief Cheng beside him, and then at Shi Jin, before speaking in a natural and confident tone: "Although I could take the college entrance examination and become a university student, this is not the choice I want."

"I would rather join the army, so that I can choose to take the military academy entrance exam or become a non-commissioned officer during my service and dedicate my life to the army."

"Besides, I believe joining the military is a choice to fulfill my civic duty. As a high school student, I realized that not everyone meets the requirements for military service, especially physical requirements. I proudly believe I meet those standards, therefore, I decided to join the military!"

After saying these words, Zhang Hui looked at Shi Jin frankly, neither hiding his pursuit nor behaving in a way that would make him repulsive.

The words, though not particularly grand or impassioned, were simple and ordinary, allowing Shi Jin to grasp the thoughts of the person in front of him.

Shi Jin smiled in response, but Village Chief Cheng, who was standing next to him, wanted to encourage his son and was about to lead the applause when Zhang Hui quickly pulled him back.

This avoided the subsequent applause from those around them, and their exaggerated, awkward cheers.

The system reward arrived as well: [The plot has changed due to the host's actions; reward: 3 unallocated points!]

Just as Shi Jin was about to say something, Xu Baishun walked over with his son Xu Sanduo.

Village Chief Cheng greeted them timidly, "Bai, Baishun's here~ Haha~"

Zhang Hui watched as the old man stared at the father and son with an unfriendly expression.

Then he gave Shi Jin a fawning smile, and then sternly rebuked Xu Sanduo behind him: "Go!" The father and son came and went, leaving the people present somewhat confused.

Village Chief Cheng then told his family to hurry up and cook, intending to entertain Shi Jin, but Shi Jin refused directly, citing established principles.

After a long back and forth, Shi Jin finally ended his home visit and went outside.

Upon reaching the door, Shi Jin asked Village Chief Cheng where Xu Sanjia's family lived, hoping for directions, as he needed to visit Xu Sanjia's family again.

Zhang Hui shoved Village Chief Cheng, telling him to stop causing trouble, and Village Chief Cheng could only point clearly at him.

"Comrade Chengcai, I'll let you know immediately if anything happens," Shi Jin said to Zhang Hui, who was standing behind him.

"Thank you, sir!" Zhang Hui replied simply.

"Hey~ goodbye!"

Just as Village Chief Cheng was about to step forward to accompany him, Zhang Hui also went along. Changing the plot was secondary; his main goal was to witness Xu Baishun's famous scene firsthand.

On the way, Zhang Hui finally opened the system panel and looked at the latest information interface with various data.

[Power Up System Based on Plot Changes]

[Host: Zhang Hui (Cheng Cai)]

[Current World: Soldier Assault]

[Physical Fitness: 20]

【Strength: 20】

[Agility: 20]

【Spirit: 20】

Unallocated points: 5

[Skills: Basic free fighting, basic camouflage, basic acting]

【空间(0.008m³):恢复药剂(6份),高效绷带(6份),金条30g(6条)】

Seeing that several new skills had been added and the items in the personal space were clearly displayed, Zhang Hui felt that the system was becoming more and more user-friendly.

Thinking back, although the character identity in this world was bought with points, I got 5 bonus points right away, which is a good start.

According to the plot of the Soldier Assault world, there will be many more opportunities in the future, and Zhang Hui felt that spending those 50 points was well worth it.
