Chapter 2 I'm really pregnant. "Ah, I see, I..."
"Ah, I see you, I'm in the private room." Yu Qing was hugged tightly.
"What? You were in the private room? You didn't witness a ghost killing someone, did you?" Gu Tuo asked in surprise. "I saw a lot of posts online saying that the corridor was so dark it looked like it was photoshopped, and it was full of ghostly energy."
"Hmm, I can't even see anything more than half a meter away." Yu Qing gently pushed Gu Tuo away.
The original owner really liked Gu Tuo.
The affection of friendship.
The two had a lot in common and often chatted until three or four in the morning.
Those of us with the same goal should take the postgraduate entrance exam together and become romantic painters in the future.
But now Yu Qing has transmigrated here. He doesn't like painting, and he can't be a romantic painter anymore.
Gu Tuo is going to fight alone.
Gu Tuo did not notice that Yu Qing in front of him had changed his soul.
Seeing his pale face, I realized he must have been frightened.
"It's good that you came back safely. Go take a shower. I heard that you need to bathe with pomelo leaf water to ward off evil spirits at times like this. There's a pomelo tree downstairs. I'll go steal some leaves."
Gu Tuo was a man of his word; before Yu Qing could answer, he was already outside the door.
Yu Qing couldn't stop him, so he just let him be.
Anyway, I need to take a shower.
Yu Qing changed into slippers and went into his room to take a look.
Although it's small, it has a strong sense of everyday life.
There's also a potted green ivy on the windowsill.
There were quite a few snacks on the bedside table.
He hadn't seen snacks on Planet Ace for many years.
On a planet where food is scarce, even nutritional biscuits are almost impossible to produce, let alone snacks to satisfy cravings.
Yu Qing curiously tore open a cookie package.
It looks black, can it taste good?
He held the cookie to his nose and smelled it; it smelled wonderful.
Is this what chocolate tastes like?
There's also a cream filling in the middle.
One bite, and you're instantly overwhelmed with happiness.
Ah! This is the blissful life of having food!
Yu Qing couldn't control himself and tore open the packaging one cookie after another to eat. In no time, he finished the whole box of cookies.
Gu Tuo returned with a large bunch of pomelo leaves and called him out of the room.
"Come out quickly, take a bath in grapefruit water, it can ward off evil spirits."
"Oh, how do I wash?" Yu Qing came out and was pulled into the bathroom by Gu Tuo.
“We were supposed to boil the pomelo leaves in water, but that’s too much trouble. We’ll just hang the leaves in front of the showerhead and turn on the hot water. That way, you can wash with pomelo water while standing under it.” Gu Tuo thought he was incredibly clever.
I tied the pomelo leaves to the showerhead.
Yu Qing saw that this made sense and didn't think much of it.
But when he actually took off his clothes and stood under the shower,
He jumped out hastily, scalded by the heat.
And it made a pig-like squeal.
"Aww!"
Gu Tuo, who was outside the door, asked, "What's wrong?"
"Scalding hot!"
Gu Tuo burst out laughing outside the door.
Only then did I realize what a terrible idea I had suggested.
＊
Yu Qing came out of the shower, wearing loose loungewear, and stood in front of the full-length mirror, examining himself.
She has naturally fair skin, beautiful almond-shaped eyes, large double eyelids, and long, thick, curled eyelashes, even the eyelashes on her lower eyelids are very thick.
A high, straight nose bridge and a small, delicate nose tip.
He has a handsome face, and his jawline is clearly defined when viewed from the side.
As expected of the male protagonist in the novel, he looks exactly like the real person!
"Have you taken enough pictures? You've never been this vain before," Gu Tuo complained.
He had been standing in front of the mirror for fifteen minutes.
This is far too vain for a man.
Yu Qing then used his hand as a comb to scratch his hair.
He turned around and sat down at the small round table.
"Hey, let's have a good meal to calm our nerves," Gu Tuo said, pointing to the things on the table.
The takeout he ordered was very generous.
There was roast chicken, various kebabs, and steamed dumplings. Yu Qing especially liked the steamed dumplings dipped in sesame sauce.
Gu Tuo specially bought one for him.
There are also small cakes and milk tea.
There's also a pizza.
Yu Qing looked at the table full of delicious food, his eyes welling up with tears.
He hadn't seen such beautiful food for many, many years.
It smells so good.
Seeing that his eyes were red, Gu Tuo reached out and patted his shoulder, saying, "Don't be so touched, it's kind of embarrassing."
Yu Qing was moved by Gu Tuo's friendly gesture after Gu Tuo mentioned it.
A friend who's willing to spend money on a takeout meal like this must be a good friend!
"Thank you, Taku."
"Why are you being so polite with me? Eat up, the cheese won't stretch if it gets cold," Gu Tuo said with a smile.
Gu Tuo has a pair of big dimples when he smiles, which is very cute.
Her hair is curly; it's natural.
Gu Tuo's family was much better off than Yu Qing's.
Gu Tuo's parents are both alive and well; they are business people and not short of money.
The original owner, Yu Qing, was different; he was set up as an orphan.
Having no one to rely on, that's why they have to take on part-time jobs everywhere.
They have a very strong desire for money.
After discovering she was pregnant, she tried very hard to find the father of the child.
In order to give my child a complete family, I don't want my child to grow up lonely like I did.
Yu Qing could sense the male protagonist's feelings, but he hadn't finished reading the story and didn't know who the child's father was.
This novel is just a ghost story disguised as a fantasy novel about the male protagonist having affairs with nine men who are suspected to be the fathers of his children.
Reading is a very enjoyable experience.
But when it really comes down to me being the male lead, I'm not happy at all.
Nine men, it must be exhausting.
If he had a lot of money, he could keep his children from being lonely.
This world is so rich and colorful, and human lifespan is so short. Even if you live to be a hundred, it's simply not enough to enjoy it.
Family ties are a vague concept for Qing, because on Planet Ace, human genes have changed.
Society has also experienced collapse and restructuring.
On the planet Ace now, humans are mass-produced and cultivated in birthing chambers.
It possesses superpowers and a lifespan of over a thousand years.
But the concept of kinship has become a delusion for humanity.
It no longer exists.
Yu Qing had never experienced or truly encountered such a thing.
The only way to find descriptions of family affection is in novels.
How can you truly empathize with something you haven't experienced firsthand?
After eating and drinking his fill, Gu Tuo began to paint.
Yu Qing took the trash downstairs to throw it away.
I also went to the pharmacy and bought a pregnancy test.
He was still very nervous at this historic moment.
He can have children, so when he goes back to Planet Ace, he'll probably be captured and studied.
Yu Qing bought a pregnancy test and then sneaked into the bathroom.
I stayed inside for a long time.
Gu Tuo thought he had an upset stomach.
Yu Qing sat on the toilet, lost in thought.
I'm really pregnant!
According to the book, he was pregnant with twins.
Yu Qing put the pregnancy test in his pocket.
I'll have to secretly throw it away tomorrow.
Yu Qing came out and sat down next to Gu Tuo.
The mysterious voice asked, "I have a question for you."
"What?" Gu Tuo continued drawing without looking at him.
Yu Qing asked, "Can men give birth?"
"What kind of question is that? How can a man give birth? What would he use to give birth?" Gu Tuo asked him, amused.
"What if the man gets pregnant?"
Gu Tuo looked at him suspiciously: "Why are you curious about this? Are you pregnant?"
Yu Qing remained silent.
Gu Tuo's eyes widened: "You're really pregnant?"
Yu Qing shook his head: "No, I'm just curious, what would it be like if men could give birth?"
"Then, then..." This question really stumped him. "C-section? Otherwise, how do men give birth? Like taking a dump?"
"Forehead……"
"I have seen news reports about men who can get pregnant. They are born hermaphroditic, but their dominant trait is male. However, they have a uterus inside their body. I also saw a news report about a woman, or rather, a man with breasts and a penis. She got married, and... she got another man's wife pregnant."
“This…” Yu Qing subconsciously touched his chest.
Thankfully, the author didn't have such a heavy taste and gave him a hermaphroditic personality, otherwise it would have been really awkward.
"Were you scared silly by a ghost?" Gu Tuo asked.
"Maybe. I'm going back to my room to sleep. Maybe it'll be better tomorrow." Yu Qing hadn't figured out how to tell Gu Tuo about this yet, so he went back to his room to calm down.
Actually, he could have chosen not to have these two children; he could have just gone to the hospital to have them aborted.
He was quite curious about something as sacred as childbirth.
Yu Qing lay on the bed, touching his stomach.
He has never experienced family affection.
The children he fathered were his children, and he was related to them through blood ties.
I'm a bit conflicted.
Yu Qing fell asleep while struggling with his thoughts.

Inside the Bureau of Supernatural Abilities.
Zhou Fengyun was still in his office looking at documents.
The identity and social connections of the deceased in today's murder case have been investigated.
The deceased, Tian Weifeng, was 39 years old and the owner of Yinhe Pharmaceutical Company.
The private room was booked by Tian Weifeng. KTVs only register the identity of people who book private rooms.
The boss didn't know who else would come.
The receptionist will only check if the person is an adult.
If they see someone who is too young, they will ask them to show their ID card for registration.
In ordinary cases, surveillance footage can show who came to the private room.
Unfortunately, the resurgence of ghostly energy can damage the surveillance system.
Zhou Fengyun's phone lit up; he habitually kept it on silent, and the screen was lit up without him noticing.
He swiped to answer the call.
"how?"
The person on the other end of the phone said, "There's still no way to repair the surveillance cameras damaged by the ghostly energy. I've done my best."
Zhou Fengyun said calmly, "Then forget it, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard work. I'll continue my research. Maybe one day I'll be able to repair all the surveillance cameras that were damaged by the ghost energy."
"Okay, good luck, I wish you success soon, that's all for now."
"OK!"
Zhou Fengyun hung up the phone, leaned back, and pinched the bridge of his nose.
He has already spent money to hire many people to try to repair the surveillance system that was damaged by the ghostly energy.
So far, no one has been able to reconstruct even a single piece of the surveillance footage.
He really wanted to know what had happened at the An Yue Hotel more than a month ago.
His metal-based superpower has the effect of dispelling ghostly energy.
But that day, his superpowers were completely ineffective.
Normally, ghostly energy is black, but that day it was red.
He couldn't remember anything that happened that day.
My gut feeling... it seems like he slept with a man.
He had some blurry images in his mind, and he wasn't sure if they were real or if he was just hallucinating from overthinking.
That man... has a very round butt.
Zhou Fengyun put down his hand that was pinching his brow and made himself a cup of coffee.
When I get sleepy, my mind starts to wander.
He tried watching all the surveillance footage near the Yuean Hotel in an attempt to find that person.
However, among the surveillance cameras near the hotel, there are thousands of people on camera, and he couldn't find any.
"Boss, something bad has happened! The detector data near Yunxiang Road is rising rapidly. The concentration of ghostly energy there may have reached the threshold for the resurgence of ghosts." Chu Yihou burst into the room with a bang.
"When will you get rid of this reckless habit?" Zhou Fengyun blew on the coffee in his cup.
"Next time, I'll definitely change next time." Chu Yihou grinned and waited for Zhou Fengyun to give the order.
"Tell everyone to get ready." After saying that, Zhou Fengyun took two big breaths and then gulped down his coffee.
"Yes!" Chu Yihou turned and left.
Under normal circumstances, the readings on the detection instrument will not exceed one hundred.
After the world enters a period of ghost resurrection, ghostly energy will be present in daily life. However, when the ghostly energy is very thin, it will not cause harm to the human body, and ghost resurrection will not occur.
However, once the ghostly energy exceeds one hundred and the value continues to increase, the area is very likely to experience a ghostly resurrection event in the near future.
Based on experience over the past few decades, it has been concluded that when the concentration of ghost energy reaches 800 points, it will begin to harm the human body.
Once the score reaches 2,000, the event of the ghosts being resurrected will definitely occur.
Zhou Fengyun went to the monitoring room to check the ghost energy level of Yunxiang Road.
The person in charge of monitoring the data said, "Captain Zhou, the ghost energy on Yunxiang Road is now close to 800 points. We have sent reminder text messages to the residents in that area, and also notified the neighborhood committee and the police officers in the area to prepare for the evacuation of residents."
"Okay, I'm going to work now. Don't make any mistakes." Zhou Fengyun said and left.
"There won't be any mistakes," the employee replied earnestly.
They have strict response measures: if the ghost energy exceeds 100, they report to their superiors; if the ghost energy exceeds 600, they issue a notice to the residents in the area, and notify the neighborhood committee and the local police.
The ghostly aura exceeded 800, prompting the Special Abilities Bureau to dispatch personnel to the scene to prepare.
Sometimes, the ghostly aura fluctuates around 800 or 1000.
This situation does not cause much harm to the human body; wearing a mask or respirator can prevent harm.
There will be no ghosts or monsters.
The appearance of ghosts requires the ghost energy to reach 1,800 or more; if the ghost energy reaches 2,000, then there will definitely be ghosts.
When the ghostly energy reaches 1,500, the evacuation of the population will begin.
The above are all summaries of experience; of course, unexpected situations may occasionally occur.
The growth rate of ghostly energy will not be too fast, taking several hours in total.
It's enough for everyone to evacuate and escape beyond the area covered by the ghostly aura.

Yu Qing fell asleep early, his mind seemingly playing a movie on autopilot.
He saw two very cute and handsome babies, one on each side, holding him and calling him "Daddy".
They kept shouting and shouting.
It melted Yu Qing's heart.
Just as he was holding his baby and smiling, a cloud of black mist suddenly surged over, and two hands reached out from the mist and snatched the baby from his arms.
The baby cried and called for his father.
Yu Qing jolted awake.
"Qingqing, get up quickly, run!" Gu Tuo was banging on his door.
