Ah-Zhou, on the verge of completing his military service, experiences a bizarre dream in which he sees the corpse of Shing-Shing Chen, an old elementary school classmate. Could this dream be suggesting that Shing-Shing Chen has passed away? Shortly after, Ah-Zhou is unexpectedly granted a five-day leave and decides to search for Shing-Shing Chen. However, he soon discovers that the leave is actually a mission for him and another soldier nearing discharge, Xiao-Gui, to track down a deserter named Kuen-He, who fled with weapons two days prior. Both are uneasy about this task, as they used to bully Kuen-He, who was once a rookie, but is now a dangerous fugitive.
