About His Magical Girl Uniform…
He actually didn’t have a cross-dressing fetish, but he had no choice but to wear it, which once made him feel very conflicted. Fortunately, after wearing it for four years, he had already gotten used to it.
Today, seeing his uniform again after two years, he felt a surge of nostalgia, but that nostalgia inexplicably brought with it a hint of shame.
The blue and white poofy skirt, the red bow tie at the chest, white stockings, and black underwear… under the bed lay the small shoes that only fit his magical girl form.
As a Magical Girl, the most inconvenient thing was always having to prepare two sets of clothes—one male and one female—so he usually stayed in his female form at the Magic Control Bureau and only switched back to male in private during breaks.
“Eh… time to transform.” Luo Zhizhou carried the clothes and walked into the bathroom.
He took off his clothes, and Luo Zhizhou transformed.
With a flash of light, Luo Zhizhou became Porcelain Moon.
“I’ll take a shower first.”
He turned on the shower, and steam instantly filled the bathroom.
Porcelain Moon looked at herself in the mirror and touched her face.
Her disheveled long white hair flowed down to her waist, and her blue pupils stared at the reflected image.
“She really looks exactly like her.”
From Porcelain Moon’s aesthetic perspective, she was undoubtedly an exceptionally beautiful girl, worthy of being her ideal type. But the problem was that this girl was herself.
At first, she wasn’t used to the female body, so she was forced to learn all sorts of strange knowledge that opened up a new world.
Later, she spent all her time maintaining this body for combat missions and gradually got used to it.
But Porcelain Moon always found the two things on her chest puzzling—they swung around and hurt during battle.
After about ten minutes, Ma Xinyin called.
“Luo Zhizhou, what are you doing? We’ve been waiting for you so long.”
“I’m just taking a shower, isn’t that fine?”
“Then hurry up. By the way, come to the top floor later; a helicopter will pick you up.”
Hearing the female voice on the other end, Ma Xinyin’s tone softened considerably.
“Okay, okay, I’m coming right away.”
She put on her clothes one piece at a time. After getting dressed, she gave a victory sign to the girl in the mirror.
“Looking good.”
Porcelain Moon equipped the Magical Core, which was absorbed into her body.
“I can feel the power returning.”
“Let’s go.”
Porcelain Moon headed to the top floor, where a helicopter was parked on the helipad.
“Miss Porcelain Moon, please board.” The crew said.
“You still remember me?” Porcelain Moon was pleasantly surprised someone recognized her.
“Miss Porcelain Moon, you’re a great hero of Zhonghe Province and even Hua Country. How could anyone in the Magic Control Bureau forget you?”
Porcelain Moon smiled gently. “Alright, alright, you’re making me a bit embarrassed. Let’s go.”
The helicopter took off from the tall building, heading toward Baiyun County.

“Director Ma and General Chen, please look at the big screen.”
In the operations command room, Ma Xinyin and Chen Hanjun were discussing the battle plan.
Chen Hanjun, a Lieutenant General of the Central Military District, was well-versed in Aberrant Beasts and adept at cooperating with the Magic Control Bureau.
Hence, he was responsible for assisting the bureau in Aberrant Beast eradication.
“This is a recording from the battle, captured by a high-altitude drone—”
The assistant enlarged the footage.
“During the fight between the Magical Girls and that Duke-Class Aberrant Beast, something very unusual occurred.”
The assistant fast-forwarded to the moment the second squad of Magical Girls fired at the Aberrant Beast’s flank.
A black barrier suddenly appeared on the beast’s side, blocking all magic spells and reflecting the magic with double the power.
“This is the first time this Aberrant Beast has used this kind of skill; there is no precedent,” Ma Xinyin said.
“That’s why I find it strange. Moreover, this Aberrant Beast’s combat tactics are unprecedented. It actually used feints and evasion skills when attacking our Magical Girls. From previous encounters, Aberrant Beasts fight purely on instinct—they have no combat skills or evasion abilities.”
Chen Hanjun picked up the battle report and reviewed it repeatedly before saying, “Director Ma, so what does this imply?”
“I reasonably suspect the Aberrant Beast is being controlled by someone,” Ma Xinyin revealed her long-held suspicion.
“Xiao Ma, you can’t make such claims without proof. This is highly sensitive information.” Chen Hanjun warned her gravely.
Ma Xinyin motioned for the assistant to bring out a file stamped “Confidential.”
“I have evidence strong enough to support my theory.”
***
After about forty minutes of flying, the helicopter finally reached its destination and landed on a flat mountainside.
The mountain area, which should have been pitch dark, was now brightly lit. Countless soldiers and engineers were working overtime digging defensive structures.
Porcelain Moon hadn’t seen such a scene in a long time.
She stepped off the helicopter, which then left to attend to other missions.
The scene before her was bustling. On a flat open area, a temporary airport had been set up. Transport planes were landing and taking off continuously, unloading many Type 99 main battle tanks.
In the sky, a squadron of Magical Girls had raised a massive alert net to prevent flying Aberrant Beasts from entering.
“Commander, where is the command post?” Porcelain Moon asked an officer beside her.
“Are you a Magical Girl?”
“Yes, the director of the Magic Control Bureau summoned me.”
The officer sized her up before contacting his superior through a radio.
After receiving confirmation:
“I’ll send a jeep to take you there immediately.”
“No… you don’t have to trouble yourselves.”
“Sorry, it’s the general’s order.”
A military jeep soon arrived and took Porcelain Moon to the command post.
The command post was a temporary green tent bustling with officers coming and going. Occasionally, a few A-class Magical Girls could be seen inside.
Porcelain Moon entered and walked to the operations command room.
Inside, a meeting was in progress. Two guards stopped her at the door.
Rules were strict in the military camp; no one was allowed to enter casually, so Porcelain Moon had to wait patiently outside.
“Director Ma, Porcelain Moon is waiting outside.” The assistant quietly informed Ma Xinyin.
“Okay, I know. Let her wait a little longer.”
Inside the operations command room, a meeting on the next morning’s mission was underway. Military officers and Magic Control Bureau commanders were discussing battle details.
Ma Xinyin, one of the overall commanders, began outlining the general plan.
“Tomorrow, our mission is to clear out the Aberrant Beast nest beneath the town. According to ultrasonic scans, there is a vast cave network underground housing a large number of Aberrant Beasts.”
“The greatest threat is an unknown-featured Kingdom-Class Aberrant Beast, temporarily code-named ‘Earth Dragon.’
“Now, the operation plan.”
“Phase One: A specially formed squad of fifty Magical Girls will serve as the main force to enter the cave first, sweeping some Aberrant Beasts. They will try to lure the main forces and the Kingdom-Class Aberrant Beast out to the surface.”
“Phase Two: All forces will be mobilized to defeat the Kingdom-Class Aberrant Beast ‘Earth Dragon’ and eliminate any other Aberrant Beasts appearing on the surface.”
“Phase Three: Use Drill Nuclear Bombs to blast the nest, destroying all remaining Primal Magical Beasts inside.”
Chen Hanjun added, “The absolute core of this operation is the reinstated S-Class Magical Girl Porcelain Moon. She, along with several elite A-Class Magical Girls, will act as the vanguard deep inside the unknown nest.”
“Therefore, Phase One is the most critical. All units must ensure the safety of the Magical Girls entering the cave, especially the newly formed drone battalion, which will deploy Special Forces Drones for reconnaissance and logistical support.”
“This part should be my responsibility.” Ma Xinyin was displeased that Chen Hanjun had revealed Porcelain Moon’s participation prematurely.
“Director Ma, let her come in.” Chen Hanjun knew Porcelain Moon was waiting outside.
The tent flap opened, and Porcelain Moon entered the command room. Ma Xinyin had specially arranged a seat for her nearby.
“This is the S-Class Magical Girl Porcelain Moon, who will be the main force in tomorrow’s mission,” Ma Xinyin said, motioning for Porcelain Moon to sit beside her.
Everyone else turned to look at her with curiosity.
Porcelain Moon had nothing to say. She wasn’t the planner of the operation, just a fighter who had to follow orders—no need to interrupt.
“Porcelain Moon, you should now understand the general plan, right?” Ma Xinyin asked.
“Yes, your assistant briefed me.” Porcelain Moon answered succinctly.
“Next, we will discuss some operational details…”
The meeting lasted over an hour. Porcelain Moon glanced at the clock; it was already 10:40. Her eyelids were drooping.
“All right, that wraps up the arrangements. Meeting adjourned.” With Ma Xinyin’s words, people gradually left the command room.
“Hey, Porcelain Moon, stay back.” Chen Hanjun called.
“General Chen… is there something you need?”
Porcelain Moon knew Chen Hanjun well. He had been impressed by her in a previous important operation and was aware of her true identity, valuing her as a former soldier.
“Xiao Yueyue, it’s been a while since we last met.”
“Pft…” Ma Xinyin couldn’t help but laugh.
Porcelain Moon felt embarrassed. “General Chen, please don’t call me such a cheesy nickname…”
“Doesn’t that show how much I miss you? Such a wonderful Magical Girl coming back is precious. Look at you—beautiful as a flower, though you’re still a young man.” Chen Hanjun teased.
“General Chen, you better watch what you say. You’re making Porcelain Moon shy.” Ma Xinyin rubbed Porcelain Moon’s shoulder, who quickly pushed her hand away.
“I’m not… If there’s nothing else, I’m going to rest.”
“All right, all right, I just wanted to chat, but since you’re so tired, never mind. Porcelain Moon, go rest. I have other plans. I’ll take my leave first.”
Chen Hanjun left the command room.
Only Porcelain Moon and Ma Xinyin remained.
“Old witch, arrange a place for me to rest quickly. If nothing else, I’m going to sleep; I’m exhausted.” Porcelain Moon yawned widely.
“My assistant will take you there soon.” Ma Xinyin went to the computer.
“Come here.” She said to Porcelain Moon.
“What’s this?” Porcelain Moon asked, seeing the content on the screen.
“This is footage from this afternoon’s battle between A-Class Magical Girl Bai Lingluo and a Duke-Class Aberrant Beast.”
Ma Xinyin played the video.
“Wait, what’s that?” Porcelain Moon pointed to the black barrier on the Aberrant Beast’s side.
“Not sure. It looks like some kind of magic barrier defense, capable of reflecting magic with double power,” Ma Xinyin explained.
“This Aberrant Beast… something’s wrong.” Porcelain Moon’s extensive combat experience told her this beast was abnormal.
“You noticed it? That’s right. I suspect this Aberrant Beast is under human control or intervention.”
“Combat skills and evasion… I can’t believe it.” Porcelain Moon was stunned.
Ma Xinyin stopped the video and opened a file.
“During the operation, we detected a very peculiar Magic Power Fluctuation, identical to samples from a mysterious organization investigated within the Magic Control Bureau. More and more evidence suggests there’s human control behind this.” The file showed details of the magic pattern.
This magic pattern… impossible… Porcelain Moon didn’t want to accept the conclusion.
“I’m telling you, this is top-secret. Don’t leak it. Remember, tomorrow’s operation must be extremely cautious. There may be enemies lurking in the shadows.” Ma Xinyin warned.
“I understand.”
“All right, you should go rest.”
Porcelain Moon’s resting place was a hastily built plastic shelter.
It was the same small room as before—plain and dull.
Within the few square meters stood a folding cot and a small desk with nothing on it.
Better than sleeping in a sleeping bag. Thinking of many soldiers still sleeping in sleeping bags, Porcelain Moon didn’t complain much.
A set of pajamas hung on the wall. Porcelain Moon changed into them and lay down on the bed, pulling the covers over herself.
Before, she had always gone straight to sleep in her battle uniform, sloppy. Now she was lucky to be able to wear pajamas to sleep.
She turned off the light and closed her eyes.
But her heart couldn’t settle. Tonight was likely to be filled with nightmares.
