According to the final plan they came up with, the two of them needed to go to Yang Mo’s room on the second floor first.
As soon as the door was pushed open, they could see the desk pressed up against the left wall. Besides the books and stationery for students, there was also a marine life encyclopedia lying on the desktop. Most of the other furniture was made of wood, which was a bit plain for a girl’s room. However, the bedsheets and duvet cover were printed with cute cartoon patterns, showing that the owner still had traits fitting for her age.
For Qian Ling, this was her first time entering a girl’s room, but given the current circumstances, she had no time to care about such things.
Yang Mo opened the bottom drawer of the wardrobe, lifted up several layers of clothes, and finally pulled out a black paper box from underneath.
“This is it!”
“Oh…”
Qian Ling took the box from Yang Mo’s hand a bit unwillingly, because she already knew from Yang Mo what was inside.
After opening the box and pulling out the contents, sure enough, just as Yang Mo had said, it was a Maid Outfit and matching shoes and socks.
The clothing consisted of a black long-sleeved dress with white cuffs, and a white apron with lace trim. Compared to the traditional Maid Outfit, this design probably borrowed more from the old Soviet girls’ School Uniform.
So the day would come so quickly when I’d have to wear a skirt just like a real girl, Qian Ling thought.
But for the sake of the plan, she had to change into it first.
Anyway, the hospital gown I’m wearing looks pretty terrible if you look closely, and although this is a skirt, it doesn’t show much skin. Might as well just go through with it…!
After a series of internal struggles, she finally managed to convince herself.
She untied the belt of the hospital gown, gave it a little tug, and coolly tossed the hospital gown onto the floor.
“Qian… Qian Ling.” Yang Mo suddenly called her name.
Qian Ling, whose attention was still on the hospital gown, turned her head and saw Yang Mo pointing at her with an expression of utter disbelief.
What’s wrong? Is there something weird on me?
As she thought this, she looked down to inspect her own body.
“Ah.”
The answer revealed itself instantly.
It was all because the doll body Qian Ling now possessed also came with some of the features unique to girls—on her flat chest were two subtle bumps.
Wait, why would a doll have these kinds of details?! Doll Witch… just what the heck were you thinking!
Qian Ling was both shocked and on the verge of breaking down inside.
After all, “Magical Girl Viru” was an all-ages work, so this was her first time learning about such a design. No wonder Yang Mo’s reaction was so incredulous.
Thankfully, there was a pair of white underwear under the hospital gown from the very beginning. Otherwise, she dared not imagine whether the Creator might have left her some other “gift” below.
Once she sorted out the situation, a wave of intense shame washed over her.
Her face instantly turned bright red. She instinctively wrapped her arms around her body, and after a moment of flustered hesitation, hurriedly put on the Maid Outfit she had previously been reluctant to wear.
Yang Mo’s expression finally calmed down at this point, but the first thing she said was, “Um, you still don’t have any underwear on—”
“Thanks for the reminder, but please just let me off for now…” If she were still in her original body, Qian Ling probably would have burst into tears by now.
She really wasn’t prepared for this at all, and in any case, she felt it absolutely had to be a brand-new set if she was going to wear it.
After Qian Ling’s emotions settled down, Yang Mo began to size her up in her new outfit.
“Hmm…” She stroked her chin in thought for a moment, then said, “Still missing something.”
She then pulled out a black hairband, replaced the one on the back of Qian Ling’s head with the new one, and gave her a once-over before nodding in satisfaction.
“Now it’s perfect. The outfit from last year’s school performance really fits! It’s like it was made for you, Qian Ling. There’s no cuter combination!”
“R-Really?”
Qian Ling was a bit overwhelmed by all the praise, but she hadn’t forgotten their current situation.
She shook her head to refocus herself and asked Yang Mo, “Let’s not talk about this. Didn’t you say you’d worn this outfit before? What if your sister recognizes it?”
Hearing this, Yang Mo immediately pouted resentfully. “That was on a weekend, but my sister said she was busy and didn’t come. Honestly, I was a bit embarrassed to wear this, so I didn’t even show her any photos.”
“So, even you were embarrassed, but you didn’t hesitate to make me wear it?”
Faced with Qian Ling’s glare, Yang Mo hurriedly added, “This is all to deal with my sister! Besides, you look a million times better in it than I do!”
“Hah…”
Qian Ling wanted to say more, but at that moment, there came a thudding knock and a voice calling from downstairs.
“Yang Mo, are you home?”
Hearing this, Qian Ling and Yang Mo exchanged glances, then rushed to wait in the living room downstairs.
Just two seconds after they reached the living room, there was a click from the door—the person outside hadn’t waited for it to be opened and had used a key instead.
Thank goodness we ran fast. Qian Ling secretly wiped away a cold sweat.
But the real challenge was just beginning.
She stood motionless beside Yang Mo, quietly awaiting the arrival of the guest.
From the other side of the living room, a girl who was a head taller than Yang Mo slowly approached and stopped at the low table that separated them.
She had an impressive head of red hair, braided into a single plait. Unlike the fiery color of her hair, her pupils were a pleasant shade of emerald green, and the corners of her eyes tilted upward slightly.
Her chest was noticeably fuller than Yang Mo’s, and her thighs looked stronger too. If you hadn’t seen the original “Magical Girl Viru,” you’d never guess they were related by blood.
Right now, the only thing they had in common was that both wore similar School Uniforms—Yang Mo’s jacket was gray, while the girl who just arrived wore a brownish-yellow one.
Her name was Yang Xia, Yang Mo’s elder sister, and also the Magical Girl Liuhuo.
As a viewer of the original work, Qian Ling knew that she and Yang Mo were actually half-sisters, sharing the same father.
“Big Sis, you’re here.”
Seeing Yang Xia, Yang Mo put on her best businesslike smile, but Yang Xia ignored her and focused immediately on Qian Ling.
Yang Xia poked Qian Ling with her thumb and asked, “Who’s this?”
“Uh… This is…”
Before Yang Mo could explain, Yang Xia noticed the ball-jointed hands on Qian Ling, grabbed her hand for a closer look, and corrected herself.
“No, what I should ask is, what is this thing? That magical energy reaction from earlier, could it be coming from this?”
Yang Xia leaned in, stroking her chin as she inspected Qian Ling closely, her eyes almost pressed up against Qian Ling’s face.
Qian Ling could only continue to stand perfectly still, pretending to be an inanimate object, while inside her mind raced a mile a minute. Thankfully, her face was well-suited to playing it cool.
At this point, Yang Mo followed the script they had prepared, stepping in to rescue Qian Ling: “Sis, I was just about to explain.”
She spread a hand toward Yang Xia and introduced, “This is a Housekeeping Robot I just happened to pick up.”
“Just happened? A Housekeeping Robot?” Yang Xia sounded skeptical.
As if to allay her doubts, Qian Ling—now the Housekeeping Robot—flashed her red eyes twice in quick succession, just like a pair of taillights.
