Lu Yanli is the protagonist, a handsome man who wears a mask and hat to conceal his identity. He is familiar with the strange smells of the weird world, such as the mix of disinfectant, blood, and rotting protein. He appears cautious and somewhat timid, often lowering his head and playing with his phone to avoid eye contact with the supernatural female celebrity on advertisements. However, he is also manipulative and self-preserving, using his knowledge of the weird world's rules to guide others while secretly calculating how many can survive to shield him from danger. He notices unsettling details, like a passenger always standing on tiptoes, and tries to maintain a kind facade while internally doubting others' loyalty.
