The viewers in the livestream were stunned.

Most of them had not figured out what was going on.

But when they heard the fact that Chen Han had no deskmate at all.

They were all stunned!

For three full seconds, not a single person posted in the chat.

This would have been absurd in any other livestream.

A livestream where everyone was too shocked to say anything?

That was impossible.

Yet that was exactly what the viewers in Chen Han's livestream were doing.

They had all been stunned by the sudden twist.

Their emotions were like a roller coaster that had already reached its peak and was about to plunge the next second.

Only to suddenly discover, to their astonishment, that they were still at the fucking starting point and had not even set off yet?

"Holy shit, what the hell is going on?"

"I seriously don't get it!"

"The more you think about it, the scarier it gets! Scared me to fucking death!"

"Boss Chen Han is fucking awesome!"

"How exactly did Boss Chen Han figure it out? Unbelievable!"

A full minute passed.

The number of viewers in Chen Han's livestream had also surged to 30,000.

That figure broke Chen Han's previous records.

A rookie streamer had reached over 30,000 concurrent viewers in just over a day!

Just how capable did he have to be!

And just how eerie did this instance have to be?

Plenty of spectators also poured in.

Among them, the viewers who had been watching all along gradually recovered.

At least they had realized that Wang Xihu was an anomaly.

Earlier, they had not even managed to grasp that, their thoughts stuck on "why can only the players see Wang Xihu?"

"Holy shit, does that mean Wang Xihu is an anomaly?!"

"The rule only mentioned four people, but it didn't say anomalies counted!"

"That makes it feel even scarier. This Wang Xihu looks like an anomaly too!"

"What are you all so shocked about? You're making a newcomer like me really curious!"

"The truly terrifying thing is that we don't know when Boss Chen Han discovered Wang Xihu was an anomaly, right?"

"I'm new here. Can someone tell me what exactly happened in this livestream?"

"I agree with the person above. This is my first time seeing so many concurrent viewers. Is this some big shot's livestream?"

"Boss Chen Han's mental fortitude really has me on my knees."

At that moment, Li Chen fell into thought.

Naturally, he had also realized that Wang Xihu was an anomaly, but he could not figure out how exactly Chen Han had discovered it.

When exactly had it happened?!

Li Chen's breathing grew labored.

Boss Chen Han was getting stronger and stronger, even though he was only a newcomer who had cleared two instances!

But why was it that now, even he could no longer see through Chen Han's moves?!

Just as Li Chen was puzzling over it to no avail.

"Huixiazhi" posted again.

"The viewers in Boss Chen Han's livestream generally have high IQs. I didn't expect you to figure out why the students couldn't see Wang Xihu so quickly."

"But for the viewers who have just poured into Boss Chen Han's livestream, let me explain on his behalf first."

"The rule says more than four people. So if the rule didn't take effect, either another rule canceled out the harm from this one."

"Or its conditions weren't met, meaning there weren't more than four people here. Wang Xihu isn't human! Since Wang Xihu isn't human, he can only be an anomaly in this instance."

"Next is the question everyone is most curious about: how did Boss Chen Han discover that Wang Xihu was an anomaly?"

As soon as "Huixiazhi" reached this point, countless people began flooding the chat.

"So that's how it is?"

"Holy shit, this livestream is incredible!"

"That's fucking amazing. That possibility never even crossed my mind!"

"This streamer's called Chen Han? Following him right now. This is my first time seeing such a high-quality livestream chat. Big shots everywhere. I'm moving in."

"Hurry up and tell us why, boss. The curiosity is killing me!"

Perhaps sensing everyone's eagerness, "Huixiazhi" soon noticed what everyone was curious about.

"This morning, Wang Xihu approached Boss Chen Han during class. But Boss Chen Han ignored him. Player Liu Mingjie, on the other hand, was caught by the homeroom teacher for responding to his deskmate and received a savage beating."

"From that moment on, Boss Chen Han had already realized something was wrong: the students were deliberately trying to get the players killed."

"But were these students really students?"

"They weren't students at all. They were anomalies!"

"Any student who took the initiative to speak to a player during class was an anomaly! There are two reasons. First, every student at this school acts like a robot, so how could they possibly break the classroom rules of their own accord?"

"The second requires careful observation: throughout the entire day, these students never said a single word to another student. Everything they said was directed at players!"

"So Boss Chen Han had noticed this long ago. At this point, he could basically confirm that some of the students were anomalies!"

"As for what happened afterward, this afternoon, Wang Xihu deliberately tried to join in while Boss Chen Han and Li Zhan were chatting. It was normal for Boss Chen Han to ignore him, but there was no way Li Zhan would ignore him! Because Li Zhan is a chatterbox. If someone was willing to chat with him, I refuse to believe he could turn them down!"

"And when Wang Xihu came over just now, he sat right beside Li Zhan. By any reasonable standard, Li Zhan would at least have greeted him, right? But he didn't!"

"So, in Boss Chen Han's eyes, there were clues everywhere that Wang Xihu was an anomaly!"

After reading the posts from the user "Huixiazhi," the viewers in the livestream erupted.

"Forgive me for reading the chat on my knees!"

"I feel like there isn't really much difference between Chen Han and me. Just the difference between a human and a paramecium."

"That's just too fucking amazing. So many details were right before my eyes, but I treated them like they didn't exist."

"I originally thought Li Hebing's IQ was a little lower than Chen Han's, but judging by Li Hebing's reaction now, it's more than just a little lower!"

"For someone like Boss Chen Han, rule-based horror is as simple as eating and drinking."

"No wonder Chen Han reacted so calmly just now. Wang Xihu might as well have had 'anomaly' written on his face!"

"This livestream is way too amazing. I've shared it on my Moments. I refuse to let anyone in my circle go without watching Chen Han's livestream!"

Li Chen was also stunned at that moment.

What shocked him most was Chen Han's observational ability, along with his acting skills that made falsehood seem real.

But he could not help sighing as well.

It seemed Chen Han's livestream never lacked people who could explain his moves.

Rather, it was the Rules Horror livestreaming app that lacked big shots like Chen Han!
