Chapter 4: The surgery was a success; you're a girl now!
After an unknown amount of time, Cheng Qi finally regained consciousness.
The light green nutrient solution was slowly descending. He reached down and pulled off his mask, panting heavily.
The incubation tank door opened automatically, and Cheng Qi stepped out.
He sensed something was wrong the moment he landed.
The line of sight was lowered.
For example, the culture tank in front of him, and the operating table in the distance... all seemed to have grown larger in his eyes.
Cheng Qi lowered his head and carefully examined his body.
Slender arms, delicate hands, pink and tender feet on the floor, and empty space between her legs...
"Hmm..." Cheng Qi unconsciously hummed softly, the cute sound making him feel a little out of place.
Not used to it.
So Cheng Qi stood there, head down, and remained silent for about ten seconds.
"Commander, the surgery was a success, you're a girl now!"
Zhang Menglin jogged over, unfolding a large white towel in her hand. She draped it over Cheng Qi's shoulders from behind and began to wipe away the remaining nutrient solution from her body.
Cheng Qi looked up expressionlessly.
...Sure enough, I'm now so much shorter than Zhang Menglin, it's really a bit strange.
"Thirty-two hours, about the expected time. The process went very smoothly, and all my physical indicators are normal..." Zhang Menglin reported while wiping.
Cheng Qi nodded without speaking. It wasn't that he didn't want to speak, but after that unintentional "hmm" he'd uttered earlier, he was hesitant to open his mouth again.
That voice was so cute, I haven't gotten used to it yet.
After wiping her body, Zhang Menglin took a blue dress from the control panel.
Cheng Qi didn't ask any more questions, turned around and put on the skirt. While putting it on, she once again deeply felt the awkwardness brought about by the changes in her body structure.
The feeling of emptiness under her skirt made her feel uneasy once again.
After getting dressed, Cheng Qi turned around and noticed that there was a full-length mirror in the laboratory, placed against the wall not far from the culture tank.
"Dr. Zhang...you even prepared a mirror." Cheng Qi exclaimed sincerely.
"Of course. After the renovation is complete, you should be able to see the results in person. You can't see the whole picture just by looking down."
Cheng Qi took a deep breath and walked towards the mirror.
The figure in the mirror gradually became clearer with each step.
A petite girl stood there, her long, wet blue hair cascading down past her waist. Her features were delicate and refined, striking a balance between cuteness and aloofness. Her princess-cut bangs hung neatly on her forehead, complementing her mature, bright eyes—
She looks exactly like the protagonist in "Become a Magical Girl and Then Go Home".
Cheng Qi was very satisfied.
She spun around in front of the mirror several times, examining herself from various angles. The resemblance in appearance was extremely high; Zhang Menglin's technique was indeed impeccable.
However, there are still significant differences in some subtle aspects.
The most obvious thing is their temperament.
In the original novel, the protagonist, through the accumulation of his life experiences, exudes a unique and noble aura.
But the reflection in the mirror couldn't capture that feeling at all.
Cheng Qi sighed silently to himself. Oh well, charisma isn't something that can be changed through transformation.
"Come, sit here."
Zhang Menglin had brought over a chair at some point, and was also carrying a hairdryer. "Your hair is still wet. You'll catch a cold if you don't dry it."
Cheng Qi sat down as instructed. The moment the hairdryer was turned on, the warm airflow stirred his soaked long hair, causing it to ripple and spread across his entire shoulders and back.
"Dr. Zhang..." Between the whirring of the hairdryer, Cheng Qi tilted his head. "What do you think of my current appearance?"
"Hmm?" Zhang Menglin held a strand of hair in one hand and a hairdryer in the other, glancing down at him. "He's so cute. You'd never guess he was a man."
"...You can't tell just by looking at my appearance. I asked you to analyze whether there's anything wrong with my current look." Cheng Qi turned his head, feeling that Zhang Menglin had said something pointless.
"Well... if I had to point it out, it does have a drawback."
"What?"
"Your hair is too long."
Cheng Qi glanced at himself in the mirror.
The picture I showed Zhang Menglin before featured extremely long hair. And she did indeed recreate that length according to the picture.
"What's wrong? Is there anything inconvenient about having long hair?"
Seeing her commander's bewildered expression, Zhang Menglin was speechless: "That's so inconvenient. First, there's drying your hair... your hair would take half an hour with a hairdryer. Shampooing and conditioning would also be a waste of time. Most importantly—"
She straightened the strand of hair in her hand and let it fall down, the end hanging directly onto the chair.
"Your hair is almost down to your butt, isn't it?"
"Uh... so what?"
"...It's not very convenient to use the toilet. Be careful not to sit on the toilet with your hair in."
"..."
Cheng Qi fell silent.
To be honest, she hadn't thought about such details at all. She just felt that she needed to fit the protagonist's character, so she set her appearance like that.
But once the hair was actually on his own head, things seemed to change.
"Since you know this is inconvenient, why did you make my hair so long? Couldn't you have adjusted it?"
"Isn't this just following your instructions?"
Zhang Menglin retorted confidently. After saying that, she took out a pair of scissors from the pocket of her white coat, "If you think it's too long, I'll cut it short for you. If I cut your hair short in the beginning, I'll have to put you back into the modification device if I want it to grow longer."
"...Never mind, let's leave it like this for now. If I really feel uncomfortable later, I'll just cut it myself." Cheng Qi turned her head away. She paused for a moment, then continued to ask, "Are there any other precautions for women?"
"Hmm, like your posture when you stand and sit," Zhang Menglin put the scissors back in her pocket and continued holding the hairdryer. "Now that you're a girl, you can't spread your legs like a boy. Especially when you're wearing a skirt, your knees should be together when you sit down..."
And so, while Zhang Menglin was blow-drying Cheng Qi's hair, she also explained various precautions for women. From stride length when walking to volume control when speaking, to how to wear a bra and menstruation—
"Wait, will I get my period too?"
"Of course. After all, you have a complete female reproductive system, so getting pregnant and giving birth is no problem at all."
“…………”
Cheng Qi felt that he might have been a bit too impulsive when he made the decision.
But the arrow has already been released. To see the ending of that novel, this sacrifice is an investment.
Finally, after the long blow-drying process was over, Cheng Qi touched his long blue hair, which had finally become fluffy and dry, and stood up from the chair.
She looked at the culture tank that had once contained the crescent moon, which was now completely empty.
"How's it going with Crescent Moon?"
Zhang Menglin nodded: "The light brainwashing is complete. I'll keep her in the hibernation pod for now. Perfect timing, Commander, since you've come with me, I'll take this opportunity to explain to you how you should hypnotize her after you've infiltrated her circle."
