Lan Ke looked towards the bathroom worriedly. Listening to the painful retching sounds coming from inside, she felt a lingering and strong sense of uneasiness.

It is not easy to conceive a child in the apocalypse. Firstly, pregnant women are physically inconvenient. It is difficult for them to escape and fight, and the fetus is prone to miscarriage. Secondly, the fetus may be infected with a virus in the mother's body and become a different species.

The resistance of the fetus in development is too weak, and it is difficult for it to resist the invasion of the virus and awaken its superpowers. Instead, a large part of it will become a different species.

Once the fetuses become alien species, their growth rate will accelerate, which will not only increase the burden on the mother, but also make the mother extremely dangerous.

The scariest thing is that they will eat the mother bit by bit!

A human fetus needs to be gestated for 10 months, but an alien fetus does not need that long. It only takes 3 months for them to fully develop. They use their sharp claws to tear open the mother's uterus and start eating the mother bit by bit from the inside.

After devouring the mother, they will usher in a new round of development and become the size of a 3-year-old human child, but they are much more flexible, faster, and stronger than a 3-year-old child!

This type of alien species born from the mother's body is more brutal and aggressive than ordinary alien species. They are very insecure when they are just born, so they will kill all creatures within their sight!

What Lan Ke is worried about now is that the fetus in Han Sisi's belly has turned into a different species.

If this is true, Han Sisi is in danger.

At this moment, Han Sisi came out of the bathroom with a pale face. She was stunned when she saw Lan Ke, and then she instinctively covered her stomach with her hands.

This was a protective action, born out of Han Sisi's motherly instinct.

Seeing her reaction, not only Lan Ke, but even Zheng Yue and Li Tianzuo were surprised.

Before, Han Sisi had always shown rejection of the baby in her belly and seemed to hate it very much, but now, she would instinctively protect it!

Zheng Yue smiled helplessly. It turned out that all mothers in the world were the same. No matter how repulsive Han Sisi acted, her instincts could not be deceived.

Lan Ke was even more helpless than her. What was Han Sisi's reaction? Did she look dangerous? But... Han Sisi was too alert. Did she sense her thoughts

Is she being obvious

Lan Ke subconsciously looked at Zheng Yue and Li Tianzuo, but found that they didn't notice anything.

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether Han Sisi was just acting on instinct or really noticed what she was thinking, so she could only say to her: "Sisi, I have something to say to you alone, let's go to your room."

Han Sisi frowned subconsciously, and held her stomach even tighter with her hands.

She didn't go to the room, but asked defensively: "What do you want to tell me? Can't you say it here?"

Her resistance was so obvious that Lan Ke couldn't help but wonder if she had really noticed something. She insisted, "I can only say those words to you."

Han Sisi frowned even more tightly. She looked at Lan Ke warily, but finally nodded and turned to walk towards the room.

She lived on the second floor, so she went straight upstairs.

Zheng Yue and Li Tianzuo were a little worried when they saw this scene, but they didn't know what to say.

Although Han Sisi looked very haggard and her appearance was pitiful, they trusted Lan Ke more than the new Han Sisi.

So although the two were a little worried, they ended up saying nothing.

They didn't think Lan Ke would hurt a pregnant woman unless there was something wrong with Han Sisi herself.

Back in the bedroom, Han Sisi instinctively distanced herself from Lan Ke, found the farthest seat and sat down, then looked at her warily: "Just say whatever you want to say."

Lan Ke found it funny. Han Sisi's reaction really seemed to make her look like a bad person.

She said with a half-smile: "Han Sisi, what's wrong with you? How come you become like this after just one day of not seeing each other? Is this your own idea, or have you been influenced by what's in your stomach?"

"What do you mean?" Han Sisi glared at Lan Ke angrily, looking a little angry and embarrassed, but she quickly calmed down and said with a frown, "It seems that you have already found out. What do you want?"

"I just want to tell you that when you get the virus, the contents of your stomach are also infected. What do you think it is now?"

"You mean... it might have turned into a different species?" Han Sisi scratched her belly nervously, her eyes becoming flustered. "This... this is impossible, it's still so small."

This child should be Yiai's. Judging from the age, it is no more than 1 month old. How could it become an alien species at such a young age

Han Sisi stared at Lan Ke, trying to find any signs of lying on her face, but to her despair, Lan Ke's expression didn't look like she was lying at all.

"Are you serious? Will it really become a different species?" Han Sisi instinctively rejected this possibility. Although she hated Yi Ai and did not welcome this child, she did not want to give birth to such a monster.

Lan Ke also looked at Han Sisi, gauging her reaction. She tentatively said, "There is a mysterious organization in this world that likes to use living people for experimental research."

When she said this, Lan Ke paused obviously. She found that Han Sisi had frowned and her expression was full of disgust.

Perhaps seeing that she had stopped, Han Sisi asked in confusion: "Why are you telling me this? The world is so big, there must be some perverts who like to do this."

Lan Ke continued to probe: "This organization has a heterogeneous advancement potion. After taking it, the ability will be upgraded. But if you want to join it, you need to pledge your allegiance and provide humans as experimental subjects for them. If it were you, would you agree?"

Han Sisi frowned even more. She looked at Lan Ke suspiciously, her eyes more alert. "Why are you asking me? Do you want to join this shitty organization?"

Lan Ke carefully observed her reaction and finally determined that Han Sisi was definitely not a member of the organization.

When Fang Wenbo mentioned the organization, he was timid and proud, and seemed to admire the organization very much, as if he had been brainwashed. If Han Sisi was a member of the organization, she would never say such a thing.

Lan Ke was relieved and confessed: "In fact, I suspect that you are a member of this organization."

Han Sisi was very dissatisfied: "This is impossible! I will never join such an inhumane shitty organization! What I hate most in my life are those inhumane scumbags! Do you think I will collude with them?"

Although she wanted to kill someone, what she hated most was a scum like Yi Ai. Why did she collude with Yi Ai? She would rather die with him!
