Chapter 14: Research
The situation was finally clear to Ning Chu.
Although Zhang Shaoqing hadn’t turned into the depraved villain from the story, the items that he was supposed to obtain in the plot still seemed to come into his possession in a "reasonable" way.
It all happened so suddenly, without any warning!
In the story, there was no logic—items like the hypnosis spray would just appear in the villain’s hands out of nowhere. At least in reality, there was some explanation for how Zhang Shaoqing got hold of it.
So, was using the hypnosis spray for a prank considered disrupting the plot?
Ning Chu quickly dashed into the bathroom to avoid any potential outbursts in front of her roommates.
One headache after another, it seemed like she couldn’t catch a break.
She leaned against the bathroom wall, the fear slowly dissipating as she stared down at the small bottle in her hand, unsure of what to do next.
Should she throw it away? Destroy it? Hide it?
Or maybe... keep it for herself?
A thought crossed Ning Chu’s mind. While the hypnosis spray was originally intended for malicious purposes, what if she repurposed it as a defense mechanism? It would be the perfect deterrent!
If Wen Yang ever tried to do something to her—spray him with it!
If she ever encountered a pervert—spray him in the face!
With a regular pepper spray, there’s always a chance that it might not be strong enough, and the attacker could continue their assault despite the pain. But this spray? It was an instant knockout!
“Ning Chu! What are you doing in there? If you’re not going to use it on me, give it back!” Zhang Shaoqing’s voice echoed from outside the bathroom as he pounded on the door, his tone desperate. “It’s my stuff!”
“No way! What if you use it to harm some poor girl?”
“Am I that kind of person?”
“Yes!”
“...”
Zhang Shaoqing paused, then started yelling even louder, “What the hell, Ning Chu! Have I been bad to you these past two months? Why do you think I’m that kind of person?”
“It’s confiscated!”
“I’m worried you might harm someone with it too!”
Wen Yang, who was washing clothes on the balcony, overheard the conversation and instinctively defended Ning Chu, “She wouldn’t do that.”
“Why not?”
Because Ning Chu is a girl...
If anything, Wen Yang should be more worried about her using the spray on handsome guys.
“She’s... a good person.”
“So, you’re saying I’m not a good person?” Zhang Shaoqing pointed at his face, then turned to Wang Jie, who was standing by the balcony door watching the commotion. “What do you think?”
“Ning Chu is less likely to use it for something bad...” Wang Jie cautiously replied, not wanting to offend Zhang Shaoqing. “It’s safer with Ning Chu, so you don’t pull any more pranks.”
“Think of it as a peace offering to Ning Chu,” Wen Yang added.
“Come on! I’m not a bad person!”
Inside the bathroom, Ning Chu leaned against the door, muttering softly, “If you’re such a good person, then why are you taking Wang Jie to karaoke bars and nightclubs?”
“Hey, you wouldn’t believe how smooth those two hostesses were on Friday!” Zhang Shaoqing instantly remembered his trip to the karaoke bar and bragged, “They were in tiny slip dresses, smooth and fair-skinned, and they could sing too.”
“Right, Wang Jie?”
Wang Jie immediately turned red, nodding timidly.
“You didn’t even dare touch them, but I at least got to feel their legs~”
Wen Yang’s interest was piqued. “Tell me more.”
Ning Chu let out a disdainful snort.
I’d love to check it out myself! But unfortunately, now that I’m a girl, going to those places would be dangerous.
After hiding out in the bathroom for ten minutes, Ning Chu noticed that nothing unusual was happening in her lower abdomen.
She breathed a sigh of relief. Even though she was prepared to hide out in the bathroom, the thought of listening to her three roommates’ voices while she struggled to keep her composure in the bathroom was incredibly embarrassing.
It seemed that the hypnosis spray wasn’t the key to the plot—perhaps the critical point was whether Zhang Shaoqing had any intention of harming girls.
Feeling somewhat reassured, Ning Chu unlocked the door and glanced at the three guys huddled together, chatting about women. She walked straight back into the room.
The moment Wen Yang saw her, he immediately adopted a more serious demeanor, refraining from joining in on the conversation. Zhang Shaoqing, however, followed her, still pleading to get his spray back.
“Come on, be reasonable. This is my stuff.”
“Even if I were a pervert, I wouldn’t use this on a girl. It’s illegal, you know?”
“Why are you locking it away?”
“Stop dreaming. I’m keeping it safe for you!”
Sitting down at her desk, Ning Chu locked the hypnosis spray in her drawer and slipped the key into her pocket.
Zhang Shaoqing let out a long sigh of defeat, turning to leave.
“Shaoqing.”
“What now?”
Ning Chu turned to him with a sly smile. “Next time you find another treasure, don’t keep it hidden. I’ll help you ‘store’ it.”
In the story, there were plenty of similar items—hypnosis sprays, aphrodisiac potions, x-ray glasses, invisibility cloaks, you name it.
But these items usually only appeared in short segments of the novel, so in reality, they probably had a time limit.
“You wish! You’re getting addicted to taking my stuff!” Zhang Shaoqing glared at her. “I’m going to play games! Don’t bother me!”
With that, it seemed the issue was temporarily resolved.
Ning Chu finally relaxed, at least for now. Even if Zhang Shaoqing got his hands on more items, it didn’t seem like he’d consider using them on girls.
She touched the drawer key in her pocket, then grabbed her change of clothes and headed back to the bathroom.
This time, it was to take a shower.
After preparing everything, Ning Chu stood in front of the mirror and undressed.
First, she checked her chest... Still small and cute.
The markings on her lower abdomen hadn’t spread.
Her figure was still slender and graceful, with no trace of muscle. In a relaxed state, there was even a slight softness to her belly.
A soft belly with faint pink markings—it looked... quite alluring.
Ning Chu realized that her whole body was rather sensual.
She swallowed hard, feeling nervous despite this being her own body.
Circumstances left her no choice!
The book was clear—if a succubus suppresses her urges too often, it could lead to a complete mental breakdown!
And in a world like this, losing her sanity would likely mean becoming an easy target for all sorts of trouble...
Even someone as cold and composed as Lily couldn’t fully control herself and had to rely on toys for self-satisfaction.
Blushing furiously, Ning Chu finally decided to explore her "new accessories" for the first time since becoming a girl, all under the cover of the running water.
After a week of adjusting, she had unknowingly become accustomed to her female body. Although she still resisted in some ways, curiosity was starting to win out.
There was nothing lewd or indulgent in her thoughts—just a desire to explore and understand. But the heightened sensitivity of her body made her tremble uncontrollably, her legs growing weak.
By the time she finished her shower, she felt utterly drained, her face reflecting a sense of existential dread.

This body is way too sensitive...
“Just think of it as the first step to accepting my female body...”
“It’s a step that has to be taken sooner or later.”
