Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Novels all say that men can give birth to children...
Hearing You Yunyi's words, the ghosts in front of the big screen of the underworld live broadcast looked at each other in bewilderment.
"This... I was just about to show some sympathy..."
"Although being cheated is tragic, if the child's 'mother' is a man, and young man No. 001 is still deceived..."
"His biology teacher must have had a very difficult time back then!"
"Uh, could it be like the little girl's older brother last time, meeting a transgender person? This time it's a female-to-male transition, and since they've kept their uterus, they can have children?"
"If that's the case, Mr. You wouldn't directly say that his partner is a man."
"I saw a news story before. It seemed like a man pretended to be a woman and fell in love with another man online. When the two met in real life, the one pretending to be the woman dressed up, turned off the lights when they went to bed, and used props and so on. Anyway, the man didn't notice for a long time..."
"So powerful?"
The audience ghosts speculated whether male ghost No. 001 didn't know that his target was a man. However, to their surprise, in the extradition office, No. 001 answered You Yunyi with a confused look on his face: "I know he is a man."
You Yunyi had a blank expression on his face.
"No, wait, men can't have children? How could he even lie to me about that! I was just suspecting that his claim that I slept with him was false..."
After hearing what the male ghost No. 001 said, the audience ghosts were convinced: "Anyone with a little common sense wouldn't be fooled, okay!"
Male ghost number 001 was about to cry: "Wasn't I good enough to him? How could he do this to me... I paid for his entire family's funeral expenses. He said I slept with him after getting drunk and that I was pregnant, and I believed it and took responsibility. I was even thinking about going abroad to get a marriage certificate to give her a name..."
Audience members: "Huh? What do you mean by funeral expenses for the whole family...? That sounds weird..."
You Yunyi murmured, "You're thinking so far ahead, why didn't you think of getting a paternity test?"
"How could I have the nerve to doubt him! His whole family died because of me! If I had known, I shouldn't have started an online romance with his eldest sister... No, online romance is fine, but I shouldn't have mentioned meeting in person!"
No. 001 was clearly eager to talk. As she spoke, she turned sideways and faced the camera, crying, "If I hadn't mentioned meeting in person, his older sister wouldn't have gotten into a car accident on the way to meet me."
"If his eldest sister hadn't died in a car accident, his father wouldn't have been in a car accident trying to get to the hospital to see his daughter for the last time, and his mother wouldn't have been so heartbroken that she burned charcoal to commit suicide."
"His second brother wouldn't have jumped off a building due to worsening depression caused by the successive losses of his family. His third sister's boyfriend wouldn't have broken up with her because of her complicated family situation. His third sister wouldn't have jumped into the river and died because of a broken heart..."
"In the end, he wouldn't be the only lonely college student left..."
"I felt guilty and heartbroken, so he asked me to drink with him to drown my sorrows. Of course I agreed. But I drank too much, and when I woke up, he was naked, sitting on his bed crying. Three months later, he came to me with the test results and said he was pregnant. I wanted to die. How could I have been so harmful to others?"
"He's a good male college student, and getting pregnant and having a child will only delay his work. If this gets out to anyone, it's even scarier than if a female college student got pregnant and gave birth. Isn't his whole life ruined? I want him to have an abortion, and I can give him money as compensation, but he said the doctor said he can't have an abortion, and he has to give birth to the baby..."
Male ghost No. 001 recalled with tears in his eyes, "How could I have known at that time that he was lying to me? Especially since he told me he was pregnant, he dropped out of school the next day and ran away! I couldn't find him, and a few months later he came back with his daughter, looking so skinny. Oh, I felt so guilty!"
"Although I did doubt whether I slept with him—don't they say you can't get an erection when you're drunk? Besides, I don't like men!—I was too embarrassed to ask for a paternity test. I figured, even if he lied to me, I owed him money anyway, so let him lie. It wasn't easy for him to get pregnant..."
"Extraditioner, are men really incapable of pregnancy? Or is it just him, but some men can get pregnant? I'm not that stupid. When he showed me the medical report, I also said, how can a man get pregnant? He showed me a lot of evidence proving that some men can really get pregnant! Only then did I believe it..."
You Yunyi raised his eyebrows lazily: "You take unsourced entertainment news and fictional online novels as legitimate evidence?"
Audience ghosts: "Online...novel?"
Male Ghost No. 001 nodded firmly and explained, "Although there aren't many news reports about men giving birth, since there are, I think... Also, although he showed me an online novel, isn't it said that novels reflect reality? And he also showed me an academic paper he found on CNKI! That's serious stuff, right?"
"So I thought, if men and men don't really have children in real life, why are there so many BL stories about childbirth? If childbirth stories are fake, why are there scholars dedicated to studying them? I must be ignorant!"
The audience in front of the live broadcast screen were full of admiration——
"You might say he lacks common sense, but he's quite open to new things..."
"It's obvious they haven't opened the paper to read it, otherwise the abstract would have said that the story of a man having a child is fictional."
"Danmei childbearing fiction? Oh my, what a mess! You young people these days are messing around with all sorts of nonsense..."
"Although it's tragic that he was tricked into becoming a father, but... he really should bear most of the responsibility for the success of this scam..."
"No. 001 was rich but stupid, stupid but kind. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been tricked into joining. But he was too rich and too idle. He died in the crevice of the rock he was exploring without any illness or disaster. He was unlucky."
"No, didn't the college boy who lied to him ever consider that such an easily exposed lie wouldn't work?"
"It's outrageous that this lie could be told..."
"Either the male college student is mentally ill, or he knows that No. 001 is mentally unstable but has a lot of money to burn so he took a gamble, or both."
"Number 001 looks quite young now. He was probably just a college student when he was deceived, right? But his level of behavior can no longer be described as just pure and stupid..."
"No. 001 just said that the male college student's entire family died. If that's true, it's quite tragic. Maybe he harbored some resentment towards No. 001, so he deliberately lied to him... But honestly, wasn't their family's death a bit hasty and bizarre? Given No. 001's intelligence, I reasonably suspect that this part of the previous summary is all false..."
"Hey, aren't all the dead ghosts in the underworld? Have you ever come across a family like this? If they died around the same time, it's easy to run into them. And since they're a family, they should be together. It's quite eye-catching."
"But if they don't have those deep obsessions that need to be resolved in a place of extradition, then when they come to the underworld, they will just drink Meng Po soup and cross the Naihe Bridge. It's normal that they didn't encounter it."
"It's hard not to have obsessions after dying like this..."
"It's hard to say. Some ghosts simply didn't have any obsessions worth mentioning when they were alive. They died so quickly that even if they were unwilling to die, they didn't have time to develop obsessions."
"The whole family's death can't be fake, right? Is No. 001 so stupid that he didn't even verify it? And didn't he say he was in an online relationship with the girl's sister?"
"I'm more curious about where that male college student got the child from... Is it really his own, or was it born to another girl?"
Inside the extradition office, No. 001 was also asking You Yunyi the same question: "Then my daughter... no, whose daughter is his daughter?"
Speaking of his daughter, No. 001 sighed again. "Well, anyway, he and I have lived with our daughter for two years. I raised her with all my heart and soul. I was so happy when she called me daddy. I was even thinking about getting in shape and finding a time to be strong enough to bring her and her dad home to meet my parents... I never dared to tell my family before, and I felt even more guilty towards them because of this..."
You Yunyi didn't comfort him. She looked at Zhiyin Qiang and said, "The child was born from an affair between Yu Chuan's father and his ex-girlfriend. You also know his ex-girlfriend. She was your previous stepmother... Your funeral was quite lively."
Yu Chuan is the one who ran away with the ball mentioned by male ghost No. 001.
Hearing about dad, mom, and ex-girlfriend, the audience looked at each other in confusion, speechless: "This... Haha, this is a bit weird..."
The facial expression of male ghost No. 001 has been distorted.
In the picture on the Zhiyin Wall, people are gathering in the cemetery for a funeral, and the smiling portrait on the tombstone is that of male ghost No. 001.
"My daughter, Yu Chuan, my mom—my biological mom, my stepfather, and my two stepmothers, my biological dad..." No. 001 mumbled as he recognized everyone, then asked, "Who are the remaining man and woman?"
You Yunyi replied: "Yu Chuan's parents."
No. 001 nodded: "Oh, they are here too."
After a few seconds, No. 001 finally arrived, his eyes wide open. "That's not right! Didn't Yu Chuan's entire family die and he's the only one left? What's wrong with his parents? What did you say to the extraditionist just now... My daughter is the result of an affair between Yu Chuan's father and my previous stepmother?"
"I...my head hurts."
You Yunyi slowly added fuel to his headache: "Because Yu Chuan's family didn't die at all. He was the one you were dating online with."
"At that time, his ex-girlfriend, your previous stepmother, broke up with him, so he suspected that his ex-girlfriend had found a new love. He secretly followed her and found out that his ex-girlfriend had met you. So he thought you were his cheating hat, and he wanted to use online dating to catch you."
"But during this process, he discovered that his ex-girlfriend was actually dating his dad, and it had nothing to do with you. And then you suggested meeting in person, and he panicked and, to avoid meeting in person, pretended to be your online date's mom, saying that your online date had died in a car accident."
"He originally wanted you to let things take their course and give up on seeing your online lover, but you insisted on seeing him off. To scare you off, Yu Chuan simply continued pretending to be your online lover's mother and said your online lover's father had also died in a car accident. He then blamed you for both deaths and blocked you."
"But I didn't expect you to give up. You felt sorry for your online lover's family and needed to make amends, so you tried every possible way to find out about them in the game you two met. Yu Chuan was afraid that you would find out, so he quickly pretended to be your online lover's brother and contacted you, saying that their mother had passed away and that you must be unlucky for their family, so they didn't want to have any more contact."
Upon hearing this, No. 001 murmured to himself, "But I still didn't give up. As a result, their second son and third daughter were both gone..."
