[Happy Kids Swimming Pool 22] The Child Revived, Fang Lei Squealed Like a Pig

Li Chen felt dizzy at that moment.

Although he knew Fang Lei had found the way forward by following the petals.

And that there had been a hint in the rules.

He still felt that many parts of the rules contradicted one another.

Especially rules 3, 4, and 8.

[3. Please find the child's corpse.]

[4. Please trust the child. The child will lead you to the truly correct path.]

[8. Do not believe anything the child says.]

It felt as though something had been churned into mush.

Rule 4 and rule 8 clearly contradicted each other.

There were two possibilities: either one rule was false and the other was true.

Or "the child" did not refer to Kid Bro, but to this unidentified child lying on the ground.

Li Chen leaned toward the latter. After all, if every mention of "the child" referred to Kid Bro.

Then rule 4 would be wrong along with rule 8.

Could there be two false rules?

With his head full of questions, Li Chen kept watching.

He had a feeling something jaw-dropping was about to happen.

At that moment, Chen Han wanted to crouch down and take a closer look at the child.

The child's face was purplish-blue and swollen, his lips pale.

His whole body was soaking wet, too.

It looked as though he had drowned.

Chen Han suddenly remembered that he had watched a TV drama about forensic pathologists before, hadn't he?

He remembered that if someone had really drowned, their eyes would be bloodshot.

So, curious, he leaned closer to look.

He was just about to raise his hand to check.

When something shocking happened.

The child suddenly opened his eyes.

Chen Han could see it clearly. Fuck, there was no mistake.

The child's eyes really were bloodshot.

But why would a dead person suddenly come back to life?

The viewers in the livestream were scared out of their wits, too.

They began cursing.

"Rules Horror, this isn't funny anymore!"

"That scared the shit out of me! Why does this instance love jump scares so much?"

"It's not just this instance. All the instances love them."

"That was so scary! My soul left my body!"

"My phone went flying, for fuck's sake!"

When Chen Han approached the child's corpse, Fang Lei.

Had been watching him the whole time to see just what he was going to do.

The great Chen Han must have discovered something.

Otherwise, who would approach a corpse for no reason?

So he didn't even dare breathe loudly, watching the great Chen Han with intense concentration.

The great Chen Han raised his hands as though he was about to grab something.

Fang Lei's heart leaped into his throat.

Then, to his surprise, the child suddenly opened his eyes.

Fang Lei froze for three seconds.

He was completely stunned by the sight before him.

Then, belatedly, he screamed.

It was such a wretched scream.

It sounded exactly like the squeal of a pig being slaughtered.

"Aaaaaah!"

Chen Han shuddered in fright at the scream.

His raised hands dropped straight onto the child's head.

Then Chen Han's hands began shaking even harder.

The livestream viewers were scared out of their wits by Fang Lei, too.

A huge number of people flooded in at once.

The main reason so many people flooded in was that someone had said in the livestream that the streamer was slaughtering a pig.

Who hadn't seen a pig being slaughtered?

But nobody had seen a pig being slaughtered in Rules Horror!

Everyone immediately became interested.

"Why was there a pig squealing?"

"Just one? Sounds like a whole herd to me!"

"Is this a Rules Horror instance set on a farm?"

"Holy shit, that scared me! Didn't something just explode?"

"Wait, that sounded like Fang Lei!"

"I'm dying, hahahaha!"

"Did you guys see the great Chen Han's hands?"

"I've officially become a diehard Fang Lei hater."

"Does that on-demand beating service still work inside Rules Horror? I want someone beaten up!"

Chen Han was falling apart inside.

In his mind, he wanted to slice Fang Lei into a thousand pieces.

Soon, the child regained full consciousness.

He actually stood straight up.

And did so quite nimbly.

As he stood, color gradually returned to his face.

In just a few seconds or so, he quickly returned to how he had looked when alive.

Red lips, white teeth, and delicate features.

He looked at Chen Han and Fang Lei.

"I'll lead you to the true path."

When he finished saying that.

Everyone in the livestream was stunned.

"Holy shit, what did that kid say?"

"He'll lead Chen Han to the correct path?"

"What the hell is he? Another story NPC?"

"Why can he lead Chen Han to the correct path?"

"Just got here. Feels like the players got lucky and happened to run into an NPC!"

Most people in the livestream were utterly confused.

But only Li Chen, upon hearing the child say.

"I'll lead you to the true path," suddenly understood!

He couldn't help wanting to throw back his head and roar.

Holy shit!

So that was it.

Li Chen understood completely.

Excitedly, he typed his reasoning into the livestream chat.

"The biggest trap here is the question of who exactly 'the child' in the rules refers to!"

"In the new rules, rules 1, 2, 7, and 8 refer to Kid Bro."

"But rules 3, 4, and 9 refer to the child in front of them!"

"So rules 3 and 9 hint at where to find the real child, while rule 4 hints to the players that even though they're both children, there's a difference between one child and another!"

"This child in front of them is the one who can actually lead the players to the exit!"

The livestream erupted over Li Chen's reasoning.

Meanwhile, Fang Lei's pig-like squeal earlier had also drawn in plenty of new viewers.

So, in an instant.

Nearly ten bullet comments were flying past every second.

"Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!"

"That reasoning is fucking incredible. Chen Han actually deduced all of that?"

"Who could tell the difference? A one-word difference was already impossible to figure out before. Now there's not even a single word different. Who could figure that out?"

"Chen Han is a monster!"

"Just got here, but I'm already a fan of the great Chen Han."

"Say, don't you think Chen Han's fans and followers are all really high-quality? They all seem to have high IQs! Unlike those other livestreams full of brain-dead mothballs spouting cringey praise!"

"You take on the color of the company you keep!"

"Watching the great Chen Han's livestream even raises your IQ."

Chen Han's hands, still trembling from the fright of Fang Lei's pig squeal.

Were now tucked into his pockets.

When he heard the child before him say he would lead them to the real exit.

He froze, too.

Holy shit!

I'd stumbled onto the right answer and found a real expert!

Honestly, ever since the child before him had returned to looking like a normal person.

Chen Han hadn't been so scared of him anymore.

He only wanted one thing now: to clear this instance as quickly as possible!

Meanwhile, behind Chen Han, Fang Lei, over his own pig squeal.

Belatedly slapped himself.

His cheek was still stinging.

But then, unexpectedly, things took a huge turn.

The great Chen Han had identified the NPC who could help them get out through sheer ability!

Overcome with excitement, he slapped himself again.

I wasn't dreaming, was I?
