Weird's Identity Exposed

Several suggestions were rejected, Sheng Qingqiao, refusing to believe in superstition, tried to break open the coffin using other Weird Objects, but none of them worked.

Bai Yang's gaze fell on the red flowers lying in the coffin where Qin Rang lay, and he thought of the flower around Wen Keke's neck.

It seems she has achieved her goal.

Although it may not be as perfect as she imagined, it seems sufficient for now.

They tried several methods, but several minutes passed and the person inside the coffin still did not respond.

Only then did Bai Yang slowly say, "Since we have nothing now, let's try crying. There will definitely be people wailing at the funeral, right?"

Tao Yuan's eyes lit up. "That's right!"

They were too focused on external conditions, and thus overlooked the obvious ones.

Luo Jiayu and the others nodded in agreement. Yes, besides the gifts from outside, the most important thing at a funeral is the tears of genuine sorrow.

Sheng Qingqiao quickly said, "But how can I cry right now? I can't even fake crying, can I?"

Tao Yuan explained to him, "As long as we cry, that's enough. Just make a pained expression and squeeze out a few tears. The most important thing now is to rescue them as quickly as possible."

"I..."

Mi Chuchu said, "If you can't cry, just yawn, and the tears will come out."

Sheng Qingqiao hesitated, as if she wanted to say something. At the same time, An Ying and Wang Ding seemed to have thought of something as well. They glanced at Sheng Qingqiao, then at Tao Yuan, and fell silent for a moment.

Tao Yuan, ever perceptive, immediately dropped her smile, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Her gaze swept around the room, and when it landed on Sheng Qingqiao, he couldn't help but lower his head, not daring to look at her.

Bai Yang watched the spectacle with a grin. "So, some of your teammates don't know what's going on."

"What exactly do you mean?" Tao Yuan asked, puzzled. "We've been teammates for so many years, what can't we say?"

"Is it related to crying?" Mi Chuchu didn't understand either. She frowned in distress, but Sheng Qingqiao remained silent.

"An Ying, Wang Ding, are you hiding something from me too?" Tao Yuan switched gears, her eyes filled with suspicion.

Although Luo Jiayu, Tang Pin, and Bai Ao did not interrupt, they also turned to look at the two of them, following Tao Yuan's words.

Seeing that neither of them spoke, Mi Chuchu said anxiously, "If it's not something urgent, can we talk about it later? I don't know if there are any other Rules about this coffin. If the air inside is limited, Qin Rang will be in danger if he stays in there too long. Saving him is the priority."

Sheng Qingqiao's face grew increasingly pale. He wanted to say something, but when he caught a glimpse of the flashing live stream notification light on his wrist, he swallowed his words.

He lowered his eyes, looking at his legs scalded by the flames, and clenched his fists tightly.

Bai Yang, holding the Puppet, watched them from a distance, then chuckled softly in the dead silence, "It's simple, because Sheng Qingqiao doesn't cry."

Hearing Bai Yang so casually expose her biggest secret, Sheng Qingqiao closed her eyes, feeling not only apprehensive about awaiting judgment but also a sense of relief at finally letting go.

He knew he would be exposed one day, and thought he was prepared to face it. But when he was actually discovered, he still didn't dare to look at his teammates' expressions.

"... Won't you cry?" Tao Yuan murmured to himself, his mind drifting back to the years they had spent together.

It seems that no matter what circumstances he encounters, no matter when or where, he is always positive, optimistic and cheerful, and he has never shown any sadness.

Even when they faced a life-threatening crisis or witnessed the loss of a close friend, he would always cheerfully try to cheer them up and ease their emotions.

She used to think he was carefree and a natural optimist, but now it seems that's not the case.

Bai Yang looked at Tao Yuan, whose expression kept changing, and slowly said, "You've already guessed it, haven't you? Sheng Qingqiao's inability to shed tears or feel sorrow is due to the strange Rules he has to abide by."

"He can't feel the emotion of crying; his world consists only of smiles."

"Only the supernatural need to follow Rules. Why would normal people need to follow Rules when they're not using Weird Objects?"

Tao Yuan's pupils suddenly contracted.

At this point, it's quite obvious.

Mi Chuchu and the others also looked at Sheng Qingqiao in astonishment, their complex emotions so intense that Sheng Qingqiao dared not open her eyes.

[What?! Isn't this weird?!]

[Sheng Qingqiao is also strange? How is that possible?]

[He doesn't look like a ghost at all. The ghosts in the organization are all weird and unsettling, and I can understand if you call them ghosts, but how does Sheng Qingqiao seem like a ghost?]

[I've been following Dù'è for so long, and I had absolutely no idea.]

[This doesn't seem right, does it?]

[But it seems that this is the case at present.]

[Holy crap! This is a bombshell! Xiaobai Baiyang's mouth really does leak information!]

[So, the organization already knew Sheng Qingqiao's identity?]

[Of course, the organization knows everything.]

[It's bizarre that it can turn into a person and blend into a crowd? That's too dangerous!]

"No wonder, no wonder Wang Ding told us that the organization wanted you to join; it turns out it was because of this."

Tao Yuan quickly came to her senses. Even though she disliked the supernatural, she had spent so much time with Sheng Qingqiao that she wouldn't immediately hate him just because he was a supernatural being.

Having been teammates for so many years, apart from the fact that his identity is wrong, there's nothing wrong with Sheng Qingqiao.

Moreover, prior to this, an organized and sinister group had already made contact with them.

Aside from their differing stances, those strange individuals all recognized their loyalty to the organization and had saved them many times.

In Tao Yuan's mind, the world's strangeness had already split into two types—

One is the eerie presence that demands killing, the other is the eerie presence of the organization itself.

Now that she hastily learned of Sheng Qingqiao's identity, her surprise actually outweighed her physical aversion to the Weird Object.

It seems she'll have to add another category to her classification of the supernatural: the supernatural that wants to be killed, the supernatural of organizations, and the supernatural like Sheng Qingqiao.

Sheng Qingqiao dared not look at his teammates' expressions. He knew Tao Yuan's attitude towards the supernatural, and he also knew people's attitude towards the supernatural. Otherwise, he would not have chosen to hide his identity.

Wang Ding said, "I'm sorry I didn't tell you; I only found out later."

Mi Chuchu asked incredulously, "The Authorities knew about Sheng Qingqiao's identity all along? And they still trusted him to join our team?"

Wang Ding nodded. "Humanoid Weird Entity actually appeared a long time ago, but some of Humanoid Weird Entity deeds. The remaining ones are Humanoid Weird Entity that are inclined towards humans, and their abilities can greatly help us."

Luo Jiayu doesn't reject Humanoid Weird Entity, because she herself is considered half a supernatural being, just like An Ying, and there has never been a lack of gossip about her.

Upon hearing this, she added, "Actually, I think Sheng Qingqiao is very good, just like Sister Flower Language. She's also very kind and has helped our Luo Family a lot, allowing me to stay outside of Luohai City for a long time."

"Sheng Qingqiao is Sheng Qingqiao."

Sheng Qingqiao stared at Luo Jiayu in astonishment, never expecting her to say such a thing.
